David Holmes had an accident on set that left him paralysed

The HBO documentary, David Holmes: The Boy Who Lived, will examine the couple’s friendship, as well as David’s “spirit of resilience” as she dealt with the life changing injury. The official synopsis reads: “David Holmes, a prodigious teenage gymnast from Essex, England, who is selected to play Daniel Radcliffe’s stunt double in the first Harry Potter film, when Daniel is just 11.

“When the public sees something painful or horrible, they think it was a visual effect or that there’s some clever, safe way of doing it. Often that’s not the case. There’s no way of faking, for example, falling downstairs. When you get hit by a car, you’re still getting hit by a car, even if it’s going slower than it would. They find the safest way of doing it, but it can still hurt.

He added: “I remember slipping in and out of consciousness because of the pain levels. I’d broken a bone before, so recognising that weird feeling across my whole body from my fingertips right down to my toes, I knew I had really done some damage.”After spending six months in hospital, he added that it took a great deal of patience on the road to recovery. He said: “I have gone from being able to stand on my hands for half an hour at a time and then all of a sudden I can’t sit up in bed.
