In a brilliantly honest and fun chat, New Zealand's Olympic high jump champion Hamish Kerr talks to the team about how he recovered from 'staring into the abyss' during qualification at Paris 2024 to win gold in a jump off.

Hamish talks passionately about his goals for the future (2.40m anyone?!) and how he's coped with becoming a huge star in his country.

Presented by athletics commentators Hannah England, Rich Newman and Katie Smith.
