"A miracle he is still alive"
A Perth grandfather has shared a remarkable story of survival after he was crushed between a shipping container and a truck. Doctors say it is a miracle he made it to hospital as he suffered traumatic, normally life-ending injuries.
It was just extraordinary, the amount of damage. We found the major blood vessels in the abdomen had completely burst. It was extraordinary to see someone like this survive. I have never seen anything like this before.
