Mark Moriyama was left with broken ribs and a punctured lung when his car rolled back and pinned him against a concrete wall outside his home in Cork, Ireland, on January 4Mark was airlifted to Cork University Hospital after the incident
A man suffered serious injuries when he was crashed by his own car in a freak accident outside his home.
Mark Moriyama was closing the boot of his vehicle when it suddenly rolled back, pinning him against a concrete wall. The incident, on January 4, left the dad-of-two, from Cork, Ireland, with broken ribs and a punctured lung.
He was airlifted to Cork University Hospital, where doctors discovered both his lungs had collapsed and he was placed in an induced coma. Mark was in intensive care for several days and is facing a long road to recovery, but in recent days he was able to squeeze his beloved wife Aoife's hand.

GoFundMe)The local community has rallied behind Mark and his family, raising money to help ease their financial strain while he recovers. His friend, Isaac Finken, described him as a "fantastic husband" to Aoife and a loving father to their two young children, three-year-old Elayna and nine-month-old Luca. He shared how Mark is "possibly the most vivacious, active and fit person I've ever had the luck to meet."
Isaac explained that while they bond over martial arts, stunt work and gymnastics, Mark is "at his most playful when on the floor with his two adorable children." Isaac said that Mark’s mental and physical fitness will be key to his recovery, the Irish Mirror reported.
He added: "His kind, fun, youthful personality and wicked sense of humour has made a positive impact on everyone he's met. He's incredibly fit, both mentally and physically and I know that that is the thing that will help get him through this difficult time."
He said that Mark's recovery will take more than 10 months and the family faces significant financial pressure, as he is a self-employed wedding videographer. Isaac explained: "Mark was involved in a terrible accident. He was shutting the boot of his car when the auto brakes released and the car rolled back, pushing Mark backwards and crushing him into a concrete wall just outside their house. Mark's entire right rib cage was smashed, his lung was punctured.
"Owing to the quick actions of his wife Aoife, he was airlifted from Ballydehob Community Hall pitch, to CUH, where both lungs collapsed and he was put into an induced coma. Thankfully and owing to the excellent medical care he received, Mark squeezed Aoife’s hand 3 days ago and then yesterday, he managed to wake up.
"The good news is, that Mark will be ok, we all know it could have been much worse, but doctors have advised a long road to recovery for Mark of more than 10 months. My partner is currently looking after their young children as Aoife is by his side in hospital, but Mark is a self-employed wedding videographer and I know that the financial pressure the family will be under now that he is incapacitated, will be enormous. I'd like to alleviate some of that stress, if I could.
"Theirs is a single income household and I want to set up a GoFundMe page to help out with household bills and rehabilitation costs, whilst Mark is working on his recovery." As of Monday morning, €21,450 (£18,000) has been donated to the fundraiser. You can also donate here.
