When the going gets tough…

Luke Cable is 28. He wrote to Hack with his story of a parachuting accident that resulted in two shattered ankles.

It was only his second solo jump.

One in ten thousand sky-diving jumps results in an accident or injury, according to the Australian Parachute Federation.

Four and a half hours in the operating theatre, 14 screws, 4 pins, and three plates in his feet - Luke was lucky to be alive.

But instead of losing everything, Luke found a way forward.
