After losing his legs in a car racing accident, he has done some amazing things in sport and car racing, but this is pretty amazing.

He is incredible. There was an article a while back about how towed another guy around a wheelchair course when couldn't carry on. Knackered his own chair in the process too iirc.

Won a couple of golds and a silver at the 2012 Paralympics as well. Incredible coming back from that accident to achieve all that he has achieved.
