Greg was injured on May 27, 2013, when he was electrocuted by a power line while standing on a work truck in Alberta, Canada. The 14,400-volt electrical current entered through his head and traveled down his spine before exiting through his left foot, leaving him with severe burns, scalp injuries, and quadriplegia. Through years of physiotherapy, he has regained strength and coordination, allowing him to compete in adaptive sports, grow as an athlete, and become more involved in the disability community.
