    Christoffer, thank you so much for sharing your story. I am a 55 yr old retired psychiatrist/neurologist. I was on bicycle 5.5 yrs ago when hit by truck. I have same leg amputations as you. I have struggled with many things. Now being re-fitted for leg prosthetics. You inspire me. I too, was athelete before accident. Tennis player and swimming, bicycling. 98% of ppl my age with our injury never walk again. I'm in that 2%!! I aspire to get as good as you! You are doing great my brother-keep up the great work!

      My mom is 74 years old and she is a quadruple amputee as a result from UTI specticimia. She worked very hard to get in shape to walk with the protheses legs. The orthopedic surgeon told me not to give my mom false hope and she would never walk again. After reading your comments, one thing I notice is that all three of you are very athletic and active in sports. My mom climbed the hills almost everyday before the specticimia took her limbs. She is walking around with the prothesis legs and the ability to walk again restores her dignity too.

    So glad you survived! It’s funny how you mentioned it was cold when you had your accident. I’ve read that UK soldiers injured on the Falklands battlefield survived injuries that otherwise would normally be fatal. The very cold weather conditions slowed down their bodies circulation stopping many from loosing all their blood until help arrived. If the night had been warmer they would very likely have not survived.

    This is so inspirational. I am shocked on how you overcame all of the things in your way and also have the courage and confidence to talk about all the things that have tried to stop you. I have been faced with many difficulties in life nothing like this but I know the feeling of waking up in a hospital bed without even knowing what happened and I am happy to see that there is hope in near future because of people like you I have never had amputations but I have had open fractures and many many broken bones were I can't use that limb for a few months but I can't imagine living without them. I am happy you are still living a life that is motivated and still patient. I have been moved by this story. I hope you live the best life from here on. I just got out of the hospital after being really really sick the past 10 weeks and I seen this and I am moved and I went around my house showing everyone this video. I hope that those guys watch this video and hate themselves to the point were it ruins there life and i know it's not nice to tell people this but for them I feel it should and that you lived for a reason and that's to be able to laugh in there face some day and say nice try but good will always win.

    Hi Christoffer, i've just discovered your channel (subbed) and really enjoying your content. A year ago I decided to start my own channel about loosing my left leg (TKA). What an amazing story, I lost mine through paragliding (story posted on my channel).
    Your story is radical, I really feel for you. I was looking for trouble doing extreme sport, but to loose your leg due to the reckless cruelty of someone else is near unimaginable for me. I have great respect for your courage after what happened.
    Thanks for great content, keep posting please.

    I'm sorry that you had to go through that.. I admire your strength very much. What is the chance that the 3 guys caused that injury to your head and maybe left you on the tracks?
