TUCSON, Ariz. — At just 20-years-old, Ron Trozzi's life changed forever when a bodysurfing accident left him paralyzed. Now, 47 years later, he has found a new passion that has given him a renewed sense of purpose: TikTok.
Trozzi was bodysurfing with a friend when he dove head first into a sandbar, crushing his cervical five and six vertebrae."Not really paying attention, I just leaped and the water was shallow," Trozzi said."Instantly, I was totally paralyzed."

With over 200,000 followers, he posts daily videos that inspire many to persevere through their own struggles.“I was trained at a boot camp in New Jersey how to save people's lives," Trozzi said."My life drastically changed, but here’s the incredible thing.
