Back in 2010, Chris Norton was a defensive back for the Luther College Norse when his life was drastically altered, as he was paralyzed during a game.
His football career came to an end, and he was only given a 3-percent chance to ever walk again, but recently, he beat the odds and did just that.
As you can see in the CBS News feature below, Norton walked down the aisle at his own wedding — a truly special moment for the young man:

Obviously, Norton still has a lot of rehab work left to go, but that was an incredible moment for he and his wife.
Hopefully he continues to make progress, and lives a long and happy life with his new wife.
