BAD INJURY
In 2009 he broke his left leg during training. The injury was so serious that he was in danger of losing the limb. "Nothing special happened, I just landed and my leg broke. At first they thought it was a dislocated knee but then my leg swelled immensely, the bone had exploded into 15 pieces and I had developed compartment syndrome. They took me to surgery to fit a device to measure the swelling, and had to call my mum to ask permission to operate because I was 10 minutes away from losing my leg. She really freaked out about it." (sport-folio.net, 01 Aug 2019)

BREAK FROM TUMBLING
He was not selected for the British Olympic team in both 2012 and 2016. After missing out on going to Rio de Janeiro in 2016, he took a four-month break from trampolining to pursue other interests outside of the sport. "My heart wasn't in it anymore, I was feeling sore all the time. That's when my passion for travelling began, that's what I did then, I went travelling." (sport-folio.net, 01 Aug 2019)
