Liquid Swords Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 ^^^^ I'm speechless. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/366206-serious-accident-on-f3/page/3/#findComment-5871989 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTR-N1 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Hmmm... Besides physio, I'd get some info on a TENS Machine (buy or hire) in order to prevent your leg muscles from atrophying (ie wasting away). Acupuncture can also accelerate healing in some people (since they use it for the same on some football team members). That pic makes me wonder how anyone could come out of that alive! Say a prayer of thanks? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/366206-serious-accident-on-f3/page/3/#findComment-5872103 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan Posted June 18, 2011 Author Share Posted June 18, 2011 Ouch...they didn't miss you, did they. On the bright side, looks the like fuel cap is re-useable.

Pezhead Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Wow, like the others I have to say thank god you made it out of the accident in the shape you are. I guess it's good that you were in a car with the chassis strenth the GTR has. I imagine after two months in a wheel chair you'll have the upper body strength where no one would mess with ya after they see your guns! Again Aaron if there's anything we can do for ya, let us know.

Duncan Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 haha I only need motors! And it looks like yours absorbed a heap of pressure (+1 for big heavy cast iron blocks). without meaning to get too personal....won't 3rd party injury insurance cover everything that has happened to you? It's not like you could possibly be more innocent in this "incident"...

MaTBoY Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 holy shit balls man. that car is wrecked hard! It wasn't lucky you were where you were when this happened but your lucky to have the outcome and recovery! Put that bonnet up on a wall man. It's a testament to having some super human strength!!!

GTR-N1 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 A bit more info on this TENS machine if you can Terry sounds like something that could be helpful! Hi Aaron, I've retired from pharmacy, but chemist shops that hire out walkers, wheelchairs, crutches, BP machines etc are most likely to have a TENS machine. By applying pads to certain spots and then turning the current on, the muscles in that area continue to contract according to pulsations. This action should stop those muscles from wasting. Hope this helps in a practical sense & not just in theory. Cheers, Terry Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/366206-serious-accident-on-f3/page/3/#findComment-5873510 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galois Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hey mate, good to see things are moving forward! That pic is intense, thank god you had a decent car. It's just... scary, we always forget how much energy is involved in moving 1500kg at speed. I was just wondering, do you have any memory of what happened? Don't answer if it's a sore memory though. Was just thinking everyone subscribed to this thread would want to hear your tale if you wanted to tell it. Glad you're on the mend mate, best wishes.
