New Year's Eve 2010, we were getting ready to go out on a dawn patrol, threatening Afghanistan at that point, had gone more from sort of conventional war fighting. You shoot us, we shoot back. To IEDs, guerrilla tactics, putting stuff in the ground. I took a step to my right.
Boom. My world was literally ripped out from underneath me. Next thing I know, I'm in midair, everything slows down, and then you land with a thud and it's like can't breathe, ears are ringing, dust in your eyes. I didn't realise it was me that had been injured. I woke up in Birmingham a week later.
Yes, this has happened, but I'm not going to let that define me. Well, Josh, welcome to High Performance. Thank you for having me. Good to meet you both. And you.
