In 2016 at the Rio Olympic Games Fabian Hambüchen completed the full set of Olympic medals by winning gold on the High Bar. Fabian's Olympic journey began in Athens 2004 at the age of just sixteen where he took part in the Olympic final that changed the sport of gymnastics forever. The perfect 10 was no more and three years later at the 2007 gymnastics World championships in Stuttgart, his gold medal winning routine on the High Bar sky rocketed him to fame in Germany. He was the last man to beat the great Kohei Uchimura in 2009 before Kohei went on to become the most dominant male gymnast in history. Throughout his career Fabian won a total of 23 major championships medals and inspired a whole generation of young male gymnasts around the world with his incredible performances. I'd like to thank Fabian and his Dad Wolfgang for their amazing hospitality during our time in Germany. And this is his story.
