If you watched the 2021 NoBull Crossfit Games you must surely remember the 550 yard sprint event. Not only for the blistering pace at which the athletes ran an uncomfortable distance, but for the camera man who stole the show by running all 8 heats with the men and woman (and leading for a lot of the time) with his camera to get the perfect shot for the Crossfit Documentary. His name is Salvi Villanueva. What a pleasure to get to know this extraordinary and very interesting human with a passion for making videos.
