What I thought of all this? The fact that the hero of our history, a British marine named Andy Grant, a big fan of the football club. The guy even made his leg tattooed with the symbol of the club - the bird and the inscription Layverbёrd You'll never walk alone.

When Andy was 20 years old, he was sent to Afghanistan, where the guy with his best friend was blown up by a mine. As a result, Andy had a leg amputated, while others, unfortunately, died. After surgery, tattoo Andy slightly modified. From the former have only the inscription You'll never walk (You'll never walk).



But the guy did not become discouraged and give this "prophecy" of any importance. He learned to walk with a prosthesis and even run. Now Andy 26 years, he has repeatedly won different competitions for Paralympians. Himself guy says: « I run 10 kilometers in 40 minutes. It is 2 minutes slower than the record for legged athletes. I have a new goal! And to his tattoo I treat with humor and regularly use it in a variety of lectures by soldiers and disabled people i> ».
