Seven-time "Formula 1" champion Michael Schumacher has not appeared in public for more than 12 years after falling while skiing.
According to Lent.az, meanwhile, the Daily Mail reported, citing several sources, that the former race driver is no longer bedridden. He can now sit in a wheelchair and move around his house with the help of medical staff.
Previously, media outlets claimed that Michael could only lie quietly and communicate with others through his eyes. However, several witnesses stated that this was not the case.
"It is impossible to say exactly whether he understands everything, because he cannot say it. It seems that he is aware of some of what is happening around him, but probably not everything," one source said.
The Daily Mail also notes that the former race driver has not been seen since the accident on December 29, 2013.
