Michael's Story
When a skydive manoeuvre went wrong, Michael came crashing down to earth at approximately 40mph, causing a significant spinal injury. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance were dispatched, and just minutes later, the critical care team arrived to help Michael.

Well done Michael on the recovery and of course very grateful we have these people. May I ask what you were attempting, a swoop of some description? Blue skies 🪂
Toggle surge to front riser to rear riser landing. Basically a swoop.
I really hope more people donate, this is a vital service which hopefully most of us will never need, but for those that do, you know you are in the best hands possible.
How much on average does each car cost, with all the kit?
What an amazing job you do. Thank you
What resilience of spirit, what excellent care that allowed that recovery
Can you share Michael's Just Giving donation link please. I tried to but my comments got deleted. I've donated to his fundraising for him doing the Barcelona Ironman in October 2024.
Hi @lauraandalex - his Just Giving page is here - www.justgiving.com/page/michael-oakes-1713093871715 :)
Thank you so much. It's incredible generous of you.
@@hiowaa Maybe put it in the video description too?
They have saved so many lives. Seeing them turn up when you’ve had a major accident must be such a relief, knowing you are in excellent hands.
A few thoughts. It only takes a moment for something to change the rest of your life. . . . . Or end it. Back in the Eighties I knew a lady who had had a stroke and was paralysed down her left side. After re-hab she started asking when she could ride (horses) again. "I am very sorry Mrs Lingard, but you must accept that you will not be able to ride again." At her next check up she again asked when she would be able to ride. Same response. At the 3rd appointment she asked again. After the consultant gave the familiar reply, she told him that she had been riding for the previous week. She had been a competitive equestrian before. The greatest hurdle to doing ANYTHING is the belief that you can't. The greatest thing that will HELP you achieve something is the belief that you CAN. Because your belief in your self is your greatest asset. (That and being Bloodyminded :-). I have been very fortunate to meet some amazing people. I hope I have learned something from them. Michael is another I have learned from. Thank you.
Thank you
Well done Michael
Great team effort 👌
