Adrenaline Junkies Journey to Becoming Adaptive Athlete after Accident

Ryan Gibb is passionate about the outdoors, and always had a need for speed. When he broke his back in a motorbike accident, it left him paraplegic. Now a wheelchair user, Ryan has had a huge life change. Determined to live it to the full though, Ryan and his mates have found ways to adapt a quad bike so he can still hunt - and he’s not stopping there. He has also trained to become a Personal Trainer, and he’s about to get married.

The guy who saved him is a true hero. His empathy and diligence is amazing. Despite his own disability, he went out of his way to help others. Amazing!

[@lisagrafton2529]

I must admit, that part had me in tears! Empathy is the right word! It broke my heart to hear him describe the emotional/ mental toll his injury would have on this young man of only 18, at the time of the accident!

[@alisonmorgan7238]

As much as I want to think I would have that kind of grit and determination I have to seriously question if I would

[@karencorban607]

What a courageous young man whose sheer determination and courage has enabled him to overcome adversity in life. He’s gotten on with life and has gone far and will only continue to crush goals as an amazing PT and mentor and role model!! A special mention to the man who saved Ryan.His empathy and understanding is amazing. Another hero.

I would like him to know he also helps people like me. There I was, 75yrs, sitting in a depression. It has gone. If such a disabled person can be so kind, so loving, so strong then a person like me needs to see that life still holds so much goodness and to get moving. Thank you so much. X

Mark, you bloody legend. You bring me to tears, thank you for being an amazing human. Ryan, I am sorry this happened to you, I wish the absolute best for you.

[@gracietilert8952]

What an amazing selfless man. God Bless you and your family.

[@homebase967]

Appreciate your sharing!! You have been thru a lot!! I love how Aroha came along side you. We all need a "buddy", "a love", someone who gets us and loves us even with our disabilities. No one is perfect, we all have our problems, but when you love someone you look behind the problem. Aloha to you, mililani ❤️🌺😘

[@ryangibb8777]

Bless you ❤️

[@lisagrafton2529]

I'm amazed at the available adaptive activities there are for the disabled. All it takes is to ask, and people with disabling injuries, can water ski, snow ski, ride a wave runner, run marathons, climb mountains, swim, ski dive, etc. Just about anything they did before, and even more activities, are there for the asking! The active disabled community is so large and inviting, just one text or call could get things moving towards the next adventure, for those with the attitude to want to live a full and rewarding life, despite their injury!

[@motivate-your-mindset]

Aroha.....sees the man not the disability, beautiful story about love and resilience, xx

Excellent story - just a note about the captions - the hex color codes and formatting codes for the captions are appearing at times quite often through this episode as of typing this comment.

[@AttitudeLive]

Thanks Gabriella, we'll get the team to look into this.

[@jodesandrews6831]

@@ryangibb8777 Kia Ora Ryan It would be awesome if you could repost your story to your KZbin to promote your channel ? Also post work outs? Of yours and Arohas work out sessions? Could be helpful and inspiring to both able bodied and people who have disabilities. I think you both have something special there and you mentioned another income stream! Very marketable....something special there if you weren't aware already, I see great things coming....🙌🏾 well done 👏🏾
