he's now back at work despite having his back broken in two places, his pelvis shattered, both hips and several ribs fractured and his stomach and bowel ruptured.

He said "he remembered lying on the floor, trying to breathe, and being determined not to leave his young daughter Evie growing up without a father".

"I just thought, I've got to get through this for my little girl, she can't grow up without a dad, so I just lay there and did my best."

What an amazing story.

Don't want to think of what he went through, eitherduring the accident or the 2 years after on road to recovery, but how incredible a body could go through a hole same size as a cd case and still function, guess part of it may be as he said "I still don't know how I didn't die," Mr Lowe, from Barnsley, South Yorkshire, said.

"As the machine dragged me through I just relaxed because I knew I couldn't do anything and I thought that was the end for me."

He added: "I felt the machine grab me and at that point I knew something serious was going to happen.

"I never felt pain, the only thing I felt was my arm snap - and then it was over in seconds."
