Hours af­ter he was at­tacked by a friend's four pit­bulls, pop­u­lar mo­tor­bike stunt­man, An­tho­ny Cox, al­so known as Mad Max, is thank­ing God for life.

In an 18-sec­ond video sent out from his hos­pi­tal bed, Cox smiled and gave a thumbs-up. He al­so promised to be back out soon in the 'Park' stunt­ing again.

The at­tack oc­curred at Pierre Road, Mt Pleas­ant in Ari­ma around 11.24 pm on Sat­ur­day.

He was vis­it­ing a friend when the at­tack oc­curred. The dogs re­port­ed­ly pounced when he en­tered the yard.

Hear­ing the com­mo­tion, the friend ran out­side and used a cut­lass to fend off the dogs, in­jur­ing them.

Cox was bit­ten on his hands, legs, and head. He is cur­rent­ly ward­ed in hos­pi­tal in a sta­ble con­di­tion.

The four dogs may have to be eu­thanised.
