iDJ's trance reviewer has narrow escape in horrendous boating accident.

John 'OO' Fleming has been severely injured in a boating accident which took place at the weekend.

According to a statement from his agency:

"John '00 Fleming is recovering in hospital after a boating accident at the weekend nearly cost him his life.

"John was enjoying the hot weather with friends down near Brighton at the weekend when he came off the back of an inflatable doughnut and subsequently got hit by the boat that was towing him. Fortunately he survived with a collapsed lung, four broken ribs and a deep gash to his arm.

"Often this type of accident can prove fatal but John was luckily wearing a life jacket which took the brunt of the propeller. Without it the blades would have sliced through his chest.

"John will be released from hospital in the next few days and is expected to make a full recovery within the next 3 to 4 weeks.In the meantime all gigs have been cancelled until 22 July on medical instruction."
