British Snowboarder Miles Kemp, 33, who crashed off a jump on the last day of an Innsbruck snowboard vacation in March 2006, died last month as a result of his brain injuries after five years in a care home, according to story on This Is London.
Kemp, who had been wearing a helmet, was travelling at high speed and his head “took the impact” when his board clipped the edge of the jump and he spun out of control. . . He continued snowboarding after the accident in March 2006 but then fell unconscious.
The former management consultant had 5 years of “intensive therapy” but never again regained the ability to communicate. Our thoughts are with Kemp’s family and friends.
