Damien O’Carroll is a miracle man

On March 10, 2008, he was driving his jeep home from work in Perth when he crashed. He has no memory of it.

Two months later, he woke from a coma and didn’t know where he was. A nurse told him that he was in the Royal Perth Hospital.

He had broken a collar bone when his safety belt locked on impact.
