THREE THINGS YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW ABOUT JIM BYRNES, AND TWO YOU PROBABLY DO: 1. His legs are amputated; he lost them in an accident north of Parksville in 1972, when a car hit him as he was trying to help a stalled truck. 2. He starred in Highlander: The Series as Joe Dawson, a Vietnam vet who lost his legs (Jim really is a Vietnam vet, too). 3. He was born in Missouri, but has lived in Vancouver since the 1970s. 4. Jim has won three Junos for Blues Album of the Year. 5. In 2021 he acted in his first Hallmark movie: Sister Swap: Christmas in the City. Jim Byrnes plays the Max Cameron on December 3
