The story follows Terry Dunnage as he trains for Tough Mudder

Eight years ago Terry suffered terrible injuries when he was set alight by his uncle in Devon. He survived, his uncle died in the fire, and Terry would spend the next 3 weeks in a coma clinging on for life. Indeed, he was read his last rites twice, and whilst he was in a coma, tragically his baby daughter died. Terry’s road to recovery was long, and he wanted to give up many times. Finally he got through it, and then had to endure an 8 year battle with the Insurance Company in a case which changed legal history. Last year Terry finally one the court case and was awarded £1.1 million in compensation, in a story that garnered national press.
