We love an episode that completely catches us unaware and Jude's story of becoming a Paraplegic in the Sri Lankan civil war was just that!
Talking about accessibility and cultural differences between Australia and his home country show's we truly do live in a 'lucky country' and his mindset towards living a healthy, active life is inspirational.
Did we also mention he broke his back AGAIN when hit by a car while crossing the road?!?!
