Explorations in the world of science.
In 2016, Niall McCann was left with a bruised spinal cord when he crashed his speed glider into the side of a mountain at 50mph.
He shares his journey to recovery and some unexpected life lessons he has had to navigate, from soiling himself in inconvenient places and not being able to control his flatulence, to having to re-learn how to have sex again.
We also hear from a Mountain Rescue medic on what looked like an 鈥渦nsurvivable鈥� situation and Niall鈥檚 surgeon on fixing his 鈥渆xploded鈥� spine.
