Published: August 24, 2008
FORT LAUDERDALE - A kite surfer who was injured after being caught in a gust of wind during Tropical Storm Fay says he doesn't remember his accident.
Kevin Kearney was injured last week when he slammed into a building near the beach in Fort Lauderdale. A television crew caught the accident on film.
The 28-year-old still calls kite surfing the "most fun thing I've ever done," but said he'll be wearing a helmet if he decides to give it another go during a tropical storm.
Kearney was released from a hospital Thursday.
