Never Say Can't: The Bruce Cook Story (2016)
This is the story of how Bruce Cook, a rising FMX star, suffered a catastrophic injury that would have ended most riders' desire to ever want to ride again, let alone continue an FMX career. Bruce broke his back and became paralyzed while attempting to land the first-ever double frontflip on a motorcycle. Despite a grim prognosis, he made it his goal to get back on the bike and break more records despite his permanent injury.
