I heard it today and also went to his website. Lost a leg, beat 80% of healthy people in Ironman comps, then wheelchair bound after another beat down by a vehicle. Beat cocain (who could blame him) went back to Yale for multiple PHD's and now helps anybody that will listen. Almost makes me want to stop smokin:smoker2: , drinkin:drink: and chasin women:hump: .

I heard the whole thing. Truly incredible story. I had forgotten his last name--thanks for the reminder. I want to check his site as well.
