Interesting stuff! What did you mean by clearing C-spine and then assisting walking? Wouldn't walking imply no C-spine problems? Or could they develop?
You can have spinal injuries that don't impinge on the cord thus causing none of the symptoms you would think. (numbness, tingling, weakness, paralysis, yadda yadda)
I had a high cervical fracture playing football in HS. Also had a wicked concussion so I don't remember much but according to the video I was doing plenty of fighting and moving even with a cervical injury. Needless to say I'm very, very lucky to have no deficits.
