Living Through a Mid-Air Collision | Mark Lucchiari & Ben Lucock

from Young Blood - Men’s Mental Health · host Cal MacPherson

Some moments are so impactful they can split your life in two — there's before it happens, and everything that comes after...For skydivers Lucch and Ben, that moment came in mid-air over Byron Bay, when a routine jump went catastrophically wrong. A shocking collision in freefall obliterated Ben's leg, and knocked Lucch unconscious, sending him cartwheeling thousands of feet toward the ground and almost certain death...Miraculously, Lucch survived, but what followed was the hardest chapter of Ben's life, as he reckoned not only with the brutal road to physical recovery, but also the trauma, guilt and identity loss that came with it.They've emerged from this life altering event with a remarkable story to tell and important mental health message to share with the world.It's all captured in their documentary called Impact — which is yet to be publicly released.This is Mark Lucchiari and Ben Lucock..._________Give + Get is a charity born out of this accident and the desire to help others.
