Ernest and Collin: An Unlikely Friendship

Outlook

Available for over a year

In the American state of North Carolina, a rather unlikely friendship has developed. When he was at school Collin Smith dreamed of becoming an athlete. But at the age of 14 he was involved in a car accident that left him quadriplegic, without the use of his arms or legs. When 64-year-old Ernest Greene heard what had happened, he decided he wanted to help Collin. Since then they've played a major role in each other's lives. Image: Collin Smith (lhs) and Ernest Greene.
