A SWEDISH singer has become an icon of determination after being involved in a serious train accident that left him with third-degree burns and extensive scars. In 2012, one summer evening, the then 19-year-old Axel Schylström climbed to the top of a train and received an 16,000 volt electric shock which resulted in burns to 70 percent of his body. After years of intensive rehabilitation, Axel turned to music and decided to embrace his scars. An aspiring musician, his major musical breakthrough came in 2015 when he appeared on Swedish Idol, ultimately finishing in fourth place. Now aged 27, Axel has also become a motivational speaker to help others that have been burnt and inspire people to embrace their unique beauty.
