Michael Oakes says he's likely be paralysed if air ambulance crews hadn't acted swiftly
A former Royal Marines Commando has thanked air ambulance medics, after a skydive went horribly wrong.
Michael's dramatic landing and lapse into unconsciousness was caught on his helmetcam. He's heard groaning before help arrives. He's thanked air ambulance medics who he believes saved his life, and at the very least, enabled him to walk again: "When the Air Ambulance landed, I remember just thinking that I'm safe now. I knew that whatever happened next the outcome would be the best it could possibly be."
