Rockenfeller looks back on his accident

Did you know that you were miraculously in good shape?

I didn't know anything. Everything was quite confusing. I remember fighting with myself, telling myself that I shouldn't fall asleep. And I constantly checked if I had any sensations in my arms and legs? Little by little, I understood that nothing was broken, that I had miraculously emerged from an accident in which I could have died. I am sure that my body has touched the limits of life and death.

Today, this accident is forgotten?

Not quite. I don't understand why the driver who put me off the track never apologized, never sent me a message. I'm not going to jump on him. In any case, it's in the past and the miracle is that I won't have any after-effects?
