There is a great JJ tribute video at atv s c e n e.
I cant say if I agree or disagree with posting any pictures and/or video of the accident. Sometimes it is good to use them as a reminder of how dangerous this sport can be and to put into perspective that no one, not even arguably the best our sport has ever seen, is invincible. I do think if any more revealing pictures are posted, that everyone in the Jones camp is OK with that, I know pappy seemed pretty disturbed by what he saw, so if posted they should also carry a warning.Quote:

I know the pictures are bad reminders but will you be posting any of the pictures or videos of the start so everyone who wants can see what really happened to JJ.
I'm not being mormid just curious how it all came into play and maybe alot of viewers can offer some suggestions to preven this from happening again on such a fast starting stretch!!!
Chills went down my spine when I heard about JJ's accident. I have had two ATV accidents where I thought my back was broke and couldn't feel anything. Thank the Lord above that feeling came back. This is only a grim reminder of what can happen in a sport we all love. We are huge JJ fans and was at Oak Hill in Texas when JJ and Gust were here. The whole Jones family are in our prayers, and the man that posted the Lord is the Ultimate Healer is 110% correct. I suffered over 10 years after 4 back surgeries. I was scheduled for a 5th when I was at my church and they laid hands on me and began to pray over me, sweat began to run down my spine and my back got extremely hot. The next day I noticed the drainage that had been draining from my spine was dried up and 3 weeks later, my back was completely healed. I could not believe it, what 3 doctors and 4 surgeries couldn't fix over 10 years, the Lord healed instantly! So YES, I do know of the power of prayer and God's healing.
We pray the Lord will heal you JJ and that he will surround you and your family with HIS presence.
In Him
Jeff
Anyone heard anything new?

replace all the **** with "atv scene" and leave out the space
he'll walk again. i don't mean to give any false hope but, stem cell surgery for the spinal cord injuries is sooo close to perfection, just a few more years. he'll just have to be strong, pull through till that is available in America. they are doing it in other countries and the patients are getting significatn gain. someday, him and i will both walk again. to the Jones family, good luck and if the rumor is true, Jeremiah will be at Shepard Center, I will be looking forward to meeting you all again down there in a few short weeks. god bless
My nephews' half brother Paul was paralyzed 2 years ago after diving into a pond (on his graduation day nonetheless :(
Just this year he flew over to Portugal (I believe) for a procedure that they don't do in the U.S. yet. From what I understand they took stem cells from his nose and grafted them into his spinal cord. Apparently they have had some success in doing this and some people are walking again. We are praying that he will walk again but it is still unsure at this point.
450Racer or someone close to JJ, feel free to PM me and I can put you in touch with Paul, or even his mother. They know all about what kinds of treatments are available and would be happy to help in any way.
I will say a prayer for you both tonite.
