Yesterday my friend survived a head-on collision. He has a broken neck and an injured shoulder. [View all]

BUT -- his spinal cord is unharmed. C7 complete fracture in his neck. Can breathe and talk and can move his arms and legs.

Will have surgery to stabilize his neck today and the shoulder after that.

Possibility that the injuries were caused by the airbag deployment.
