Paralysed motocross star Killian Auberson fumes ‘I’m sick of this s*** disabled life’ after breaking back in horror fall
PARALYSED motocross star Killian Auberson has claimed he is “sick of this s*** disabled life” after breaking his back in a horror fall.
The Swiss rider, 27, broke his back in a sickening training crash in June.
Auberson was a seven-time champion of motocross in his native Switzerland.
But after heading across the Atlantic in a bid to conquer America, things quickly went wrong for Auberson.
A nasty fall in training saw him break a vertebrae in his back which left him paralysed from the chest down.
Auberson was then left alone in a Utah hospital, unable to see anyone – including partner Morgane – due to the coronavirus pandemic.
After months of gruelling rehab work, Auberson was allowed to leave hospital in August and is now back in Switzerland.
But the former rider is still left tormented by the accident.
Auberson released a heart-wrenching statement on Instagram, saying how he’s “p***ed off” at his body and is “only kept alive by hope”.
Auberson wrote: “I am sick of this s*** disabled life.

“Everything is so much more complicated… my body does not work normally anymore.
“I feel bad every day, I sleep badly every night and get p***ed off with the smallest things as they take forever.
“Every day is like a punishment… I tell myself the next day it will get better.
“But the days go by and they are all the same.
“The only thing that keeps me alive is the hope, the hope it will get better, the hope of evolving and finding a normal life.
“But this hope is uncertain so there are more hard days than good.
“A lot of people support me and I thank them for that.
“But in the end I am alone fighting my body day after day and it is much more complicated than you might think.”
