Despite not winning in his sport, Eddie won the hearts and minds of the public, with a story that has since become a box office hit. Eddie shares his entertaining journey with characteristic charm and humour, talking about the willingness to take risks, the importance of pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone and allowing yourself to get back up again.
