On December 12, 2004, Jesus Aparicio – a massive Federer fan – was seriously injured in a car crash while out celebrating his 18th birthday. The accident would leave him in a coma, one he'd remain in for nearly 11 years, until finally waking up on August 27, 2015. It took some time for Aparicio's speech to recover, but as soon as it did, one of the first things he asked about was his tennis idol. To his amazement, he learned that Federer was not only still at it, but still winning.
