At 9:30am on May 23rd, 2015, Jeremy Morgan left his home in Coalville, Utah, to meet a friend in Oakley. While riding his dirt bike along UT-32, a private school bus heading in the opposite direction made a sudden turn towards Browns Canyon, right into Jeremy’s path.
In a split-second decision, Jeremy laid down his bike in an attempt to slide under the bus, but the two collided. The impact broke every bone in the lower half of his back, along with his hip, femur, and jaw. The bus’ wheels also broke his helmet in two, resulting in a life-changing brain injury that placed Jeremy in a coma for almost three and a half months.
