I met you recently during your stand up tour in the UK. You played the Empire club in Belfast last and you were hopping on a flight home, I wished you a safe journey and you seemed genuinely thankful, you were really funny by the way. Anyway, there was a quick Q+A that night and I had my hand up to ask you this but wasn't chosen.
Knowing what we know now about head injuries and the debilitating and often tragic effect they can have on all sportsmen (including, but not limited to, Chris Benoit) would you still have taken the risks, the bumps and the unprotected headshots you took in your career all in the interest of entertaining us, the fans?
