Philippe Croizon, a 26-year-old metal worker, had no idea that his life would be turned upside down. On that day, the young father received three 20,000 V shocks while trying to dismantle the TV antenna hanging from the chimney of his house. After two months in a coma, he woke up with all four limbs amputated. Thus began what he calls his “second life”, which has enabled him to overcome his disability, meet his partner, Suzanna Sabino, and achieve some incredible sporting feats, including a swim across the English Channel in less than 24 hours.
