Bill,
I broke my neck on a pair of snow skiis when I was 22 or 23. Had been skiing since I was 2 and done an awful lot of crazy things on skiis (big jumps,flips,30-40 foot cliffs,bounced off a few trees,crashed going very fast) alot of things that probably should have hurt.
When I broke my neck I was going probably 5 mph caught an edge and fell over, that is it, just landed right and there you go..
broken neck. much of my left side paralysed(sp?) for about a week.Sorry for rambling but my point is that it does not take a whole lot to break ones neck.
I broke mine at 5mph so I think a car crash with a couple of flips
@ 20-30-40-50-60-70......

mystical desire,
you have my sincerest condolances for your loss. And my greatest respect for the grace and class with wich you are handling this .

Dan Billings
