A dad who woke from a coma with new artistic talents he never had before is to have his extraordinary story turned into a movie. Moe Hunter, 41, baffled medics after coming out of a month-long coma with newfound creative abilities that hadn't existed previously. Despite being "rubbish at art at school" Moe suddenly discovered he had a knack for drawing, painting and model building. He went from working at Burger King to using his new skills as a professional carpenter and model maker. Filmmakers were left blown away by his story and plans are now in place to make a documentary film about Moe's experience. Producers Jake Parker, who has worked on films such as Deadpool & Wolverine, Barbie and Wonka and William Osborne are now raising funds to get the film made. For the past year, Moe has also been selling books based on his paintings of the visions he had while in a state of unconsciousness. But he says finding out his life is to be turned into a film was a real 'pinch yourself moment'. Moe, of Hereford, said: "It's just surreal really. To start with I never really wanted to talk about what happened. "But I've since had people from all over the world contacting me saying they have been inspired by my story. "Some have even said they've had similar experiences in comas and had the same visions as me. "So I thought I'd continue to share my experiences and when Jake said he'd do a film, I was blown away as his CV is remarkable. "I'd only reached out to him for a bit of advice and he asked me 'well what's the story?' When I told him, he was like "I'll make that'. "I was pinching myself really. It's everyone's story really as most people have experienced illness and loss in their life. "I'm still model-making now. My disabilities have got worse but my skills have continued to get better. "I'm now pretty good at woodwork too, which was another complete surprise to me. "When it all comes together I'm still questioning whether I've just done that. I'm just going to continue doing what I do." Moe was struck down by a rare form bacterial meningitis and tuberculosis in his brain which left him fighting for his life in 2004. He was left in a coma as doctors performed vital lifesaving surgery by installing a shunt to drain fluid from his brain at Birmingham's Queen Elizabeth Hospital. After waking from his coma, he soon left his friends and family gobsmacked when he started to display a special gift he didn't possess before. Moe began building intricate life-size model replicas from the world of TV and film and has seen this artwork displayed at Comic-Con events across the country. Dad-of-one Moe has also sold pieces of his artwork and continues to work as a self-employed carpenter.
