Rugby Union great Brendan Cannon and his family were incredibly lucky. In 2010 as he was backing up from his driveway, he accidentally ran over his 16-month-old son. Little Sam was in critical condition but miraculously survived. Others aren't so lucky, however. Eight children a year are killed in low-speed vehicle accidents in Australia.

*Synopsis | Saving Sam (2010)*
A car. A driveway. A toddler. Then, in one sickening instant, a catastrophe. You can't imagine anything more agonising than watching a child - your own child - fighting for life and being in that position because of something you had done. But it can happen to anyone. Two weeks ago, little Sam Cannon was in the wrong place at the wrong time and was run over in his driveway by his dad, former Australian rugby union great Brendan Cannon. Sam suffered terrible injuries in that accident and came oh-so-close to dying. Luckily, the little boy is every bit as tough as his famous dad.
