Tragedy, inspiration, triumph on skis. Feel free to get choked up.

This is a cool short video about a guy who overcame a ski jumping accident that left him a paraplegic, but didn't let it stop him from doing what he loves. Maybe your goal isn't a backflip, but this guy shows the true spirit of outdoor pursuits. He overcame a personal challenge, and we get to share the moment. Check it out HERE, and trust me, it's worth 3 minutes of your day.
