Britain’s Most Agile Man


The finalists in the Britain’s Strongest Man competition ranged in height from five foot nine to six foot six, which compares to my five foot ten. I fall within their height range, an inch taller than the “Pocket Rocket”.

However, I weigh ten and a half stone, so I’m about half the weight of the strongmen. This set me wondering if any athletes shared my height and weight.

Today, I stumbled across someone who matches me exactly. She’s one of the world’s top volleyball players.

Last time I saw one of my aunts, she told me I needed to gain half a stone. Now I can riposte that I’m built like an athlete, though I probably won’t specify which one
