Ben Parkinson.
Lance Bombardier Ben Parkinson was so horrifically injured during by a Taliban mine in 2006 that doctors told his family that he wouldn't survive, let alone ever speak or walk again. Yet here he is in 2012, alive and more determined than ever! Ben walked the whole 300 metres of his part of the Olympic Torch Relay, and it was very emotional watching the footage! Ben has done, and continues to do, so much for charity. He's a true inspiration. Ben, you're my hero!
