Anyone have news about the dude who broke his back in Anomaly?

There's a whole segment dedicated to Mark in Anomaly and we get told that "the scariest part about the situation now is that he still can't feel his legs".

Seeing as it was all filmed straight after the accident, I'm just wondering if anyone knows if the guy has made any progress?

cheers

he is permanently paralyzed from the waist down. he's going strong though! he rocks a sit-ski, and word is he has even been up at high north recently.

That makes him a dude in my book... But to be honest, I can't name more than about 4 or 5 top skiiers. Do names like Tanner Hall ever show up in mainstream media in America? Sure has hell never hear or see anything about them in this part of the planet... except for X-games and that's only if you have Sky Sport, which I don't.

mmm....no

seth has had many just as deadly accidents (heli crash for instance) and is still sking, while mark is paralized, Gods don;t get paralized.

But theadnaker, check out the link in my sig.

Brit, huh? Yeah they don't get much mainstream recognition anywhere. However, as someone up there mentioned, go here for more information: www.standstronagain.org

for me to just see him in a wheel chair, smiling, at the anomaly premier is so inspiring and gives you such a different outlook on life.

his progression in freeskiing is somehting that shouldnt be overlooked.

not only is he a good hero and inspiration for the freeskiing community, he also has a sick band, and their songs kick ass

Not many people on this site really saw him ski much cause he filmed with TGR. Not saying TGR sucks it's just that not many people on this site buy their movies compared to the other companies, he killed it so hard, if he'd been filming with PBP or level 1 he would have been getting way more attention on NS
