Michael Schumacher: Nine years of a ski accident that changed his life

The legendary German pilot suffered serious head injuries when he fell onto a cliff in the French ski resort of Marilyn.

Of course, at the time he was afraid of his life, but he successfully fought the battle to survive despite his long coma. Since then he has been in poor health and has not been seen in public since.

Little is known of his precise state of health, as his family has always wanted to preserve the privacy of a pilot who made history by winning seven world championships and bringing Ferrari to his most glorious era.

It's a cruel irony that Schumacher did not suffer his severe injury on an F1 track, but suffered the most painful accident of his life at a ski resort in the French Alps. At the time, he was 44 years old.
