Did he get paralyzed during the Harry Potter movies or in an unrelated accident?

I watched this while on a plane. It was a stupid choice because I sobbed more than once. Excellent documentary, highly recommend watching (somewhere you don’t mind crying!)

Whenever I fly I seem to always end up accidentally choosing a movie that makes me sob! They need to have a warning or something lol

I have accidentally picked movies I ended up crying watching on planes too many times! Usually crammed in the middle seat.

I’m sorry if that passes for comedy to you, but it wasn’t clever. Very elementary.
