John Edwards was flown to Salisbury District Hospital in three minutes by the Wiltshire Air Ambulance on August 6 last year after falling from a ladder at Durrington.
He tells his story, with his son Clive, in the third video released by the air ambulance charitable trust to tie in with National Air Ambulance Week, which started on Monday.
