The odds were stacked against Mike Newman following a horrific bike accident that left him paralysed, but he's shattered all expectations after learning to walk again and training to become a personal trainer.
Mike Newman, 30, was left paralysed after being thrown off his bike during motocross practice in 2019, leaving him with his L3 vertebrae shattered, a punctured lung, and a fractured tailbone and pelvis.
The personal trainer, from Hayling Island, Hampshire, was rushed to hospital in a helicopter, and then he spent almost six months in hospital trying to recover from his injuries. Doctors told him he may never walk again.
