Blind Paralympic Swimmer

Bradley Snyder may be a name that not many of us have heard before but what an amazing story he has. He is currently swimming in London in the paralympic games. A former Navy Lieutenant who was blinded by an explosive during his deployment in Afghanistan approximately a year ago. He was a swimmer at the Naval academy where he was captained the team. He returned to the pool in Maryland after his incident in Afghanistan and although he's lost his sight he seems to find it again when he gets in the pool. Snyder has taken on 7 events at the games and has earned the United States a gold in the 100 Freestyle and a Silver in the 50 Freestyle. I think it's safe to say that Bradley Snyder is above Michael Phelps on my list of people I'd like to meet.
