This is the story of how Bruce Cook, a rising FMX star, suffered a catastrophic injury that would have ended most riders' desire to ever want to ride again, let alone continue an FMX career. Bruce broke his back and became paralyzed while attempting to land the first-ever double frontflip on a motorcycle. Despite a grim prognosis, he made it his goal to get back on the bike and break more records despite his permanent injury.

He is a beast and his story is inspirational. However, don't forget there are hundreds of thousands of people paralyzed waist down who haven't shared their story with the world that have to deal with the exact same problems, some people with even worse problems, that don't get the recognition they deserve.

Dude...few people live life...most just go through it...I also had my first traum alert flight to a hospital 39. Over jumped a table top the day before thanksgiving with a wife that was 8 months pregnant, broken back, multiple ribs, shoulder blade and a thoroughly bruised confidence bone. 7 days in UM Ryder ICU in Miami. Promised my wife I would never scare her again.....1 year later I crashed a hang glider.....luckily nothing broken but the glider... promised her again....then 5 years later I stalled a paraglider and fell around 30 feet to my back. Tail bone to L3 fracture, multiple bulging disks, but this was the third strike....also I’ve been a firefighter for 20 years....a wife and 3 kids...I’ve been so lucky. Bruce I get you brother...you have a drive that most people are afraid of and push down into the abyss. Few people can say they made their own path. You burned the path. Lit it up! Inspired isn’t good enough...legend.

​@@BruceCookfmx He wants the best for you no matter what... Even when your goals result in palpable levels of worry for him... That is a true gift of support and enthusiasm few know about. Respect and awe for your dad and the totally amazing dedication and results in what you do! :). I've a bud with a spinal injury near his T7. John called it, "body doesn't listen from the nipples down". We spent many hours practicing and getting his hand controls and hand-eye coordination to compensate enough to do doughnuts and later some drifting in his 80s corvette and Mitsubishi Starion Turbo and a few others. Despite not knowing the full dedication, I really appreciate the magnitude in effort it takes to accomplish things. We both moved from San Diego, so haven't seen him in a while, but we got up to some of the best mischief!

Usually I’m kind of cynical about these kind of “feel good” or wow he did it! stories. All the positivity is just too easy for me to make fun of in my head. But when he started riding again, and when he hit the first backflip into the foam pit, I was dam near crying man. I used to ride motocross for years and I never even got close to trying a backflip and both my legs work perfectly fine. Here this guy is with no use of his legs, constant pain, the threat of catastrophic injury, pretty much every single reason ever needed to not try it. And he didn’t even hesitate for a minute. What a fucking hero you are Bruce. I realize after watching this that I truly have nothing to complain about, and that your attitude and approach to life determines what and how you do everything. This guy is out there putting on a badass show for the world doing the thing he loves more than anything, and nothing short of death can stop him. I love it, and I’m gonna try to be half the man Bruce is from now on ✊

I'm 57 years old and 40 years ago in high school football I fractured my neck and lower back in the same tackle I've had multple surgeries but no paralysis. I do know the constant pain though. and still live with it. Man you just inspired me to keep going. I first watched you build the Chevy Cateye Silverado into what is my dream truck. I just told my wife 2 hours ago b4 I watched you and your story, that I was going to quit building my truck I was giving up. But how can I not complete my lifelong dream after knowing what all you have already accomplished. THANK YOU!!!!

Recently broke my leg on my 125 and me my mum and my dad went to the hospital in a truck and the hardest part was having my mum tearing up in the back. It’s just horrible knowing that you’re putting someone close to you through so much stress and mental pain and that there’s nothing you can do about it.

I have an identical twin brother and we grew up on a large farm and lived almost exactly like you and your brother except we were amateur skateboarders, and one day I decided to climb the whole way to the top of our “eagles nest” (stand alone 8 story tree house) and backflip to the trampoline and my brother and cousin were jumping not expecting it, their bouncing threw me around 11 stories up and I hit the roof of the treehouse that flipped me around and I ended up crushing both of my hips my lower legs snapped and my ankles were both smashed… My heart broke hearing your brothers experience because the last thing I remembered was how terrified my brother was and when I came out of surgery the first thing I remember was begging to see him so he wasn’t so scared, I was so lucky to eventually rebuild my hips and your incredible video just mentally reset my outlook on things! I’m emotional and you inspire me 18 years after my accident to fight the pain because you are so strong and I got lucky, you’re amazing man! I hid from my sponsors and comp representative for years and here you are showing such incredible strength and appreciation for life and that inspired me more than you could imagine brother, God bless you and your family and keep showing others how to decide not to hide!also I still skate to this day but I have always regretted the years I let it hold me back and I respect you an incredible amount for your determination and perseverance, your an inspiration for the ages bro you rock!

So I did it, fell got up did it again and landed it. People do influence you every day . Just remember the times you have in your life because you will never forget it...

I don't really know what to say....right now my face is soaked with tears. 4 years ago I ended up in a wheelchair. I make jokes and try to carry on. But watching this and when Bruce said the part about the pain, I broke down. I am ashamed because I'm in a wheelchair not because an accident but because I made some really terrible decisions and did drugs and I shot heroin and missed and hit an artery. I had am amputation and was treated less than a human being during my surgeries because of addiction. I have had 9 surgeries and I can't remember what it feels like to not be in pain. As an addict being on pain management is hard. But because of how I have ended up here I don't talk about it. The pain I feel physically is nothing compared to my mental pain. You're story is such and inspiring one...I believe in you. Which may not mean much but the one thing I have learned is the support system we need is far more important than anything. You have a beautiful soul as well as the people around you and just how much the celebrate you, and love you...it aw inspiring !
