    i was riding my bike at the motocross track in franklin tn. we actually just built this track so we are all still getting used to it. anyway, there is a section called a dragons back. its where they have a set of whoops going up a jump. its really tricky.
    i looped out on the jump and landed flat on my back.
    i got up after a few minutes and shook it off..
    i didnt think i was hurt too bad because i could walk. i was having a hard time breathing so i made an appointment with the doctor a few days later.
    thats when we found out that i had broken a rib or 2 and my t-7 vertebrae was crushed.
    i am in good shape tho. my spinal cord is in great shape. no long term problems expected.

    I’m panicking. What do you mean by “broke my back?!”
    And if you broke a rib, does that mean your wife was taken out? Or if you’re single that you’ll now never meet Ms. Right?
    I’m afraid I’m in a panic!
    What will be missing from the show?
    Did your rib get removed?
    Are you still a Christian?
    I’m pretty upset about this.

    hi Brock Gill

    I am 14 and I saw you at Superwow last summer at Jekyll Island, and I just wanted to say that you were awesome! My favorite part was the bit when you rode your motorcycle through the audience blind-folded! I was so amazed! I just wanted to say that because of you I am in an even closer relationship with Christ than when I was before! Anyways I just wanted to thank you for that and to say that I am praying for you!
