Biography

Josh Wood's destiny forever changed in a split second on 25 June 2000 when a snowboard jump went horribly wrong and he brutally crashed onto an asphalt road at a mountain Ski Resort. Medical prognosis stated he would never get out of bed, and that at best he would be relegated to an electric wheelchair motioned by mouth controls. Four and a half months later, Josh walked out of the rehabilitation centre. He had turned the impossible into the possible and had a new and powerful message to take to the corporate world, the medical world, the sports world, and every school, institution, hospital, and street corner from which he could be heard. Josh's message is about the power of self-will, the resilience of the human spirit, and the value of being relentless in a quest to never give up.
