A SCOTS policeman who broke his neck after falling 200 ft down a mountain has made a miracle comeback and raised more than £30,000 for the organisations who helped save his life.
Michael Tunney was out walking with his 16-year-old son, also Michael, near to the Bridge of Orchy in 2006 when he slipped on ice and plummeted down the mountain breaking his neck, arm, hip and seven ribs.
Michael jnr. managed to contact the emergency services by mobile phone, but as he tried to reach his badly injured dad he too fell and broke bones in his hand before being knocked unconscious.
Now the courageous British Transport Policeman, who was forced to undergo three years of intensive operations and physio, has just completed an arduous 103-mile trek across the country’s highest peaks to raise money for the men who saved his and his son’s life.
