Hurdling through fire

Liam Collins - World Hurdles Champion - raises money for his Athletics by leaping through fire! Blindfolded!

This is him

Blackpool yesterday. He'd already leapt through one with sharp spikes all around the inside - then 3 steps later this...

And the point of it being? .

Re: Hurdling through fire

Well - for him - as it says above - to raise money for him to compete as an athlete.

For me - well - I just thought it made an interesting set of photos.

Re: Hurdling through fire

Fair enough Dave, I really missed the intro and just saw his antics which I thought was bonkers...

Great snaps anyway, I must say you don't half go to some interesting places...

Re: Hurdling through fire

Oh it's definitely bonkers!

I do get about a bit. Yesterday's trip was with a group called "Click2Focus" which I mentor for. It's a friendly group that uses photography as a focus for mental health and wellbeing.

Great action photos, a risky way to raise money though
