#1 Mitch Hunter Saves Woman's Life In 2011 In 2011, ex-soldier, Mitch Hunter, saved the life of a woman he was traveling with, by pushing her to safety when their car slammed into a 10,000 volt pylon. Hunter had thousands of volts of electricity surging through his body for five minutes and it eventually took his leg and face. #2 Five Years Later, He Shows Results From His Face Transplant After the tragedy, he decided to undergo a face transplant so his son would no longer be afraid of him. A team of 30 doctors, nurses, and other staff at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, spent over 14 hours replacing his full facial area. Five years later, he's shows us his miraculous progress. #3 No More Pointing And Staring After many operations, the 35-year-old hero, finally feels confident walking down the street. In the beginning stages of his recovery, children would point and stare, but that rarely happens anymore. He's come a long way. #4 Comments On Experience Hunter commented on his experience and progress, saying: “I feel just as healthy just as I did when I was 21, and I feel great. I look back on it as something that made me stronger. I mean, yeah, I’d like to have my leg and my face back, but without that happening I wouldn’t be who I am today.” What a hero! Source
