He suffered multiple serious injuries (fractured neck, back , pelvis and shattered right arm). All injuries listed required surgery. It has been the most challenging couple days for him but in true Anthony fashion, he continues to smile and make those around him laugh. He was very excited to go flying that morning to test out a new camera and glider, Insta360 X4 and the BGD Luna 3. If you're in the market for a new action camera, please consider using his affiliate link. . We have felt the love and support from all of you and will never be able to articulate just how much it means to him, me, and our family. Anthony is very excited to get back to his strong and active self. Please subscribe to follow his rehabilitation journey and his first flight back. Thank you again for your continued support.
