Christopher Reeve accident
On May 27, 1995, Christopher Reeve’s life would change forever.
During an equestrian competition in Culpeper, Virginia, the beloved actor fell off his horse Buck and injured his spinal cord.
Millions of fans and his family were left in shock after the Hollywood actor became paralyzed from the neck down and confined to a wheelchair.
According to the actor’s foundation, Christopher’s mother begged the doctors to withdraw his mechanical ventilation and let him die.
New York Times would later reveal that if the actor would have fallen one centimeter further to the left, he would have been killed instantly. On the other hand, if Christopher had landed slightly to the right, he would probably just suffered a concussion.
