"I died three times at 37,000ft." IED victim's incredible story of survival

"I lost both legs and my right arm when I was blown up by an IED. But I’m not unlucky…I’m on top of the World." Dave Watson was on a routine foot patrol in Afghanistan when he stood on an Improvised Explosive Device. The injuries he suffered were devastating. But Dave has refused to let his disabilities define his life and has since gone on to successfully represent Britain at the Invictus Games.
