The main thing this great father did was that he didn't panic his ten year old son..He kept his cool and took the right decisions..

I think he didn’t need to act like he was fine, just level with his son and tell him the truth: that he’s hurt and in pain, and pray together for help. Then at dawn, send his son for help.

@@debihester7284 Yeah, because there's so much evidence for the good that prayer does. About as much as 'thoughts' do and when combined, well again, nothing.
Loving this story. A kid and his pocket knife. What a right of passage..
God was certainly with the both of you. Your son being only 10 sure was a brave little boy. And you are such a great dad. You were hurt so bad and the horrible pain you were in. You were concern about your son and not to scare him. I see a hero in the both of you. Dad and son.
Beautiful how he prayed with his lil son to God
Sobbing here... so beautiful!! God be praised!! Both of these men are soooo special and loved by God!
This made me cry when his dad told his son he had to go on his own.
After watching several WONDER docs, I am puzzled to see that so many people don't carry their cell phones or weapons with them. I carry both just going to Walmart. These people are out deep into the woods, walking deep into the Grand Canyons, out on international waters, etc. I just don't understand how people don't pack for the worse case scenario. But such a heroic daddy and son.👍🏽❤

Thank you Jesus! Prayer is powerful with believing.

He should have stayed on the gravel road/path to the lake. He also knew they had told the guy to come looking for them in 2 days if they weren't back by then. Why did he send his son out into the wild where there are bears? He should have stayed put at the place they found. Got lots of wood to start a signal fire when the people came to look for them.
That pray though, my heart at that time, god bless you two, have a good life
I was in a ATV crash with my brother and dad. Luckily we all survived. My dad broke some ribs and I really hurt my leg and my brother came out injury free. I still remember that day and I always will. I’m so thankful I survived to tell the tale ❤️

*+Loreli B* He raised his son to be a good kid. No religion required and I would posit that raising a kid with faith, rather than evidence based facts, is doing their child a disservice. If the kid wants to get to adulthood and follow that path then that's their choice, but to demand that your child follows your religion is lazy and more than a little disingenuous. All that aside, they seem like nice people and I'm glad their love and tenacity got them through.

I got hit by a car when I was 5 years old (36 years ago) trying to cross the street by myself. My mom ran out of the house screaming and crying. She said I jumped up and limped over to her. I apparently took her by her hand and walked her back to the porch. I had her sit down and told her not to cry cause I was fine. I refused the ambulance ride cause I had a headache and waited for my dad to rush home from work to take me to hospital. Can I get a medal?

Glad you were OK you are very very lucky didn't the driver help you at all they should have at least stopped and called the police and a ambulance. A old school friend was hit by a car when they were in high school she was so very lucky she had several broken bones and lost all her front teeth and her jaw was smashed she was in hospital for months so the fact you walked out of there is amazing. Take care stay safe
The dad is luck to be alive and walk as much as he did

I mean, he was close, if that ATV hit him in a different way or in a different spot, he could be life-threateningly injured to instantly crushed to death. That situation was absolutely a life threatening one, he just lucked out and was hit in nonvital locations, which ultimately does make this story less of a survival story since the stakes were not as high as most the others were. But to say not even close... it was pretty damn close to being on the brink of death if one thing had gone differently! I understand tho you probably meant his current state based on how it did hit him rather than how it could have hit him.

I'm sure the kid was scared but- I know 10 year old kids that drive so, they can do way more than we give them credit for. I have a friend whos 10 year old daughter drives the truck around on the farm- she moves hay around for him, drives the truck and trailer while he loads it, etc. I've seen her back a 16 foot flat bed trailer into the barn without issue- using nothing but her side mirrors. I'd trust Leeann to go get help without question, and I don't think she would be intimidated by it- I think she'd be worried and scared about me or her dad being hurt but, not scared of going to get help.
