A motorcycle stunt man says he'll get back on his bike when he recovers from a 25-foot plunge at a circus in Saginaw.
Josh Headford says he has a broken leg, wrist, elbow and shoulder. His bike hit a cable before crashing to the floor Sunday during the Shrine Circus at the Dow Event Center.
The 20-year-old from the Upper Peninsula spoke to The Associated Press before surgery Monday. He says someone failed to lower or remove the cable before the ride.
Headford plans to resume his daredevil stunts. He says, "It's all I do."
A video of the incident shows the crowd was told to leave the building. The ringmaster announced, "I need a doctor immediately. This is not part of the performance."
