Just trying to read up on it now, One report says a broken back, another just says damaged his spine... i guess we'll have to wait and see what they say tomorrow. There's pics of it if you Google his name.

This is what one of them say...

CHANNEL 7 star and V8 Supercar driver Grant Denyer is recovering in hospital after surviving a serious accident during a monster truck show stunt.

The diminutive Denyer - made famous as Sunrise's weatherman - was trapped under his 6.5 tonne super-sized truck at Dapto after it flipped during a demonstration for a Monster Truck Championship to be held this weekend.

Denyer suffered suspected serious back injuries and was rushed to hospital this afternoon.

"Yes, he was in a monster truck crash and has been taken to hospital," Seven news and current affairs chief Peter Meakin said.

"The injuries were thought to be serious, and he is being kept in hospital for the time being.

"But from what we've since been told we believe he is going to be OK."

Meakin said Denyer, 31, was not on duty for Seven but competing in a monster truck sport event.

"Grant has been involved in the sport and motor racing for some time," Meakin said.

"But this caught us by surprise and and we're just hoping and praying the injuries are not as serious as first thought."

Denyer - who could not be reached for comment - was expected to recover enough for an interview on Sunrise tomorrow.

Ohh, and 1 more thing, if you think that your Super will see you past retirement, you're dreaming. Unless your a politician with a $2 million package waiting for you, you've got no chance. In 10 years the average price of a house will be close to $1 million, by the time you retire that figure will at least quadrupple.......you'll be lucky to buy a new car with your Super money.......so get smart and start planning now.

haha, funny how we were only discussing this the other day........biggest insurance company on the planet AIG with over a trillion $$ in assets needs the help of the US Reserve so it doesn't go belly up while all the fat cats upstairs that treated Wall Street like a Casino walk away millions $$ to retire on.

Still think Super is the way to go for retirement?..........maybe property investment ain't a bad idea after all.

anyone know mark denyer (former sunrise weather guy) he broke his back today trying to jump a monster truck over 6 cars... poor guy :)

so Norman Freeman dieing is nothing to worry about

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
