You know those make up artist that can make people look really gorey in movies etc., and your like wow that’s realistic looking......yeah that’s Matt except that’s real life cuts and staples and blood, and scars that don’t wash off.

Damn that guy is a fighter and lucky to even be alive.

Oh man. So gnarly. Both the unluckiest and luckiest guy in Kona that day at the same time.

Pretty cool to see the community pulling together for him.
