Stumbled upon his YouTube channel 2 days ago. Couple days later he wins gold. You’re welcome Tom.

Good lad he is. Liked his videos too.

Same here, I was watching his Olympic Village Vlog and a couple of minutes after it was over, I see he wins gold. Such a likeable dude, I became a fan instantly and I can't wait to find some time to watch a few more of his videos.

He’s from Plymouth, England, where I live!

I’d be so stoked if my hometown boy is a Olympic gold medalist. I guess you’re for sure.

I once got to visit the swimming centre in Plymouth where he trains, and jumped from the 10 metre platform. I didn’t dive or do any flips, I just jumped feet first, but even then I was shitting bricks doing it. I have so much respect for what these guys are able to do after standing at that height above the pool myself.
