After becoming disabled, he took up automobile racing, driving a car with hand controls which he could operate.
With two friends – also paralysed – Holmes started Ripple Productions, which in 2020 launched a podcast with Daniel Radcliffe, called Cunning Stunts, interviewing other stunt actors to raise awareness about the risks they face.
