Excruciating footage has shown the moment Dan Jones snapped both the tendons in his legs causing his kneecaps to ‘shoot up into his thighs’ while competing in a Strongman event.
The 29-year-old father had been training to compete in Strongman since the beginning of the year, finishing first place in the First Time category at the Manchester Strongman competition back in July. Following the shocking injury Jones explained it ‘was a freak accident’ and they’re still not certain how it happened."After slowing down the video with doctors and surgeons, it looks like my right knee patellar tendon snaps out of nowhere, which causes my leg to fold underneath me,” he said.
"The weirdest thing I remember is silence. The whole crowd was cheering everyone on and then it went deathly silent and I just lay on the floor," he added.
