On December 8, 2005 CR Johnson suffered severe head trauma in a freak accident at Brighton Resort in Utah. Johnson went into a coma after colliding with another skier while filming for a Bigger Picture film called Show-n-Prove. Within 10 days, Johnson had woken up from his coma, and by the 26th day he was able to sit up in bed, talk in a whisper, and eat solid food. He quickly began walking, and after 34 days in the hospital he returned home to Truckee, California. By the end of March, Johnson was back on the snow at Squaw.

 

CR Johnsons determination pulled him through an extermly difficult time. He had Resillance so even when the going got tough he carried on. He had reflection to look back at what he has done and set himself goals to achive.
