Miraculous 16-year-old boy wakes from coma with 'thumbs up’

Ryan Smith had been in a coma for four months since the bike accident

• Doctors told his family he probably has brain damage and could have died
• Boy, 16, didn't want to wear a cycle helmet as he didn't want to ruin his quiff
• He has woken and said: 'Hello mum and dad' before hugging his father
• Dad Mark said: 'It was the best hug I'd ever had, it felt incredible'

This is the moment a 16-year-old, left in a coma after being knocked off his bike, woke up after four months, spoke for the time and hugged his father, who had been by his hospital bed every day.
