We talk about his athleticism in rugby, his military service, competing in worlds strongest man, and surviving a heart attack.

    I love that Gavin mentioned spending too long talking to the fans.
    I was one of the last ones to meet him at the Cardiff show.
    The arena staff were speeding us up and told us "photos only" no autographs.
    But Gavin still signed for us regardless.
    Top guy.

    Great, honest interview with a gentleman.
    What a journey, he’s cemented his legacy already.
    Such a feat to come back and compete after that physical and mental trauma.
    Wish him a long healthy life 👍

The guy is going to be hard to beat for anyone.
