Diving Accident

Jaap was a passionate International Management student when, at the age of 21, a diving accident left him in a wheelchair. His world was turned upside down, but he fought his way back and ultimately emerged from the experience even stronger. Anyone who thinks this is going to be purely a difficult story is mistaken. Jaap performed as a stand-up comedian in Dutch theatres for many years. He loves drawing on that experience to get the audience laughing at just the right moment. Humor, emotion and inspiration: that is Jaap Bressers.
