There is a thread on Mountain Buzz of a nasty surf kayaking accident that is worth reading. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...

Ouch... The stuff nightmares are made of.

A good mate of mine suffered a severe bike accident where he crushed a few vertebrae in addition to other breakages. He now has had one replaced and has two long pins down his spine. If it wasn't for his muscle that he had he would have been paralysed for sure.

Sounds like an incentive to hit the gym ;)
