On Monday, December 1,1986, Glen Dunnam almost lost his life in a "three-wheeler" accident. While on a hunting expedition, Glen was riding his three-wheeler when an unseen half-inch steel cable that was stretched across the road hit his neck. The cable nearly decapitated him, severing his trachea, esophagus and the nerves leading to his voice box. Miraculously, his jugular veins and spinal cord were undamaged. His rapid recovery baffled the doctors who said his recovery was indeed "miraculous."
