Michael Mac Donald describes how doing a boogie loop proved to be near-fatal

Sharing a YouTube video of his unfortunate experience, Mac Donald related, “I crashed the Boogie Loop which is a trick I’ve probably performed a thousand five hundred times, and I fractured my T3 vertebra in my back.” A boogie loop is a stunt that involves multiple spins in the air before landing on the waves. However, this is not all.

Further, Mac Donald explained that he had a compression fracture and implied that he also had lung injuries and hairline fractures. Continuing, Mac Donald told fans through his Youtube video that he couldn’t attempt kite surfing for six weeks after this incident.
