Born in Mianyang, southwest China's Sichuan Province, He Peng, 38, suffered a spinal cord injury in a car accident in 2005, leaving him paraplegic from the neck down. Over the years, he has managed to accomplish a series of rehabilitation training. The first challenge for spinal cord injury patients is to recover their ability to take care of themselves, He Peng said. It took him 5 years from lying in bed to being able to raise his hands and sit up to move. Since then, he started to try out the possibilities by getting a driver's license, traveling, and practicing extreme sports. In 2019, He Peng founded a rehabilitation training camp to help more people with spinal cord injuries receive training and encourage them to go out. In 2021, He and 5 fellow "wheel-mates" drove to Lhasa along the Sichuan-Tibet highwa
