‘I Am Invictus’: Official Trail
Watch British athlete Derek Derenalagi in this official Invictus Games trail.
Derenalagi lost both legs after his vehicle was hit by a bomb in Afghanistan in 2007.
He was pronounced dead at Camp Bastion before doctors discovered a pulse while preparing him for his body bag.
In the video he says: “I’ve been ambushed, I’ve been shot at, I’ve been blown up.
“But never defeated. I am Invictus.”
Derenalagi will compete in the discus, shot put and 100m at the Invictus Games.
