Skydiving Accident Survivor - Jason Dennen - Episode 41

In 2018, triathlete and skydiver Jason Dennen was in a catastrophic skydiving accident that put him in a coma for 8 days, broke 20 bones, damaged several organs, and dislodged his heart from the pericardial sac. Doctors were shocked he reached the hospital alive. Within a year of the accident and being told he wouldn't be able to run again, Jason completed a triathlon. This episode is entirely devoted to hearing Jason's story of how he was injured, how he recovered, the healthcare practitioners involved, family, friends, and faith. You can find out more about Jason from his website and see how to get his book, 8 Days Til Sunrise, or meet him at one of his many book signing events. You can also follow him on Instagram. Jason's story is also chronicled in Men's Health Magazine, which you can read HERE.
