Charles Patten
Charles was injured in a skiing accident while attempting a double backflip. As he took off, cloud cover moved in, making it difficult to distinguish between the snow and the sky, causing him to under-rotate the landing. The crash resulted in a fracture to his T12 and a serious spinal cord injury.
