À propos de cet audio

It’s 1982 and a Brisbane dad carries his nine-year-old son through the doors of an Indooroopilly indoor pool.

The boy has walked through a glass door, his body shredded, he can’t walk and needs 85 stitches to sew him back together.

Father and son meet a swim coach called John Carew.

None of them knew it, but it was an encounter that changed the course of Australian sports history.

The boy’s name, Kieren Perkins.
