Fabrice Muamba Meets James Taylor

Former footballer Fabrice Muamba meets former England international cricketer James Taylor, as they share their experiences of a heart condition ending their sporting careers.

Six weeks after he was suddenly forced to retire from cricket due to a serious heart condition, former England batsman James Taylor meets Fabrice Muamba for the first time as they share their experiences of similar conditions ending their sporting careers.

James says that Fabrice was his 'inspiration', and that it was only when a doctor compared his condition to Fabrice's that he realised how serious it was. James talks about the moment he thought he was going to die, and that surviving his ordeal was the 'proudest' moment of his life. Fabrice gives him advice, including how he has a new perspective on life, and that he no longer fears anything.
