for the last few years, the only time for Zhang to go to the hospital was a car accident last year, and the old man's legs still have scars left last year.
"it was a car accident last March, the leg was pressed by the bus, the skin all rubbed off, turned two times, and after being discharged in June, I had been on crutches, but I had been thinking of diving. It was a hundred days in July 7th that year, and my birthday, the old guys of the swimming team were there. The sky lifted me to Zhanqiao, and put me down in the place where I dived every day. During this period, I was also joking, I was not injured, and every day on crutches to dive, there are a lot of disabled see, all to see, I thought that I was also a disabled person, so a misunderstanding. In fact, as long as you insist on any exercise, you can exercise your body well, everyone is the same. Zhang Quantong said.
jumped more than 10 years ago, Zhang Tong Tong can know the sea area around Zhanqiao well, where there are hidden reefs, where water is good in his mind. When Zhang Quantong dived, some tourists wanted to try the water, but they were always stopped by him.
Zhang Quantong: "my diving is followed by the tide, Zhang Chaolai, the tide, but do not experience or not blind water, it is not clear where the reefs are dangerous, if you really like diving, I can teach you."
