Kieran Behan was told he'd never walk again after a childhood operation went wrong

Overcoming childhood illness, Behan (27) is getting ready for his second Olympics, having competed in his hometown London four years ago. A proud Irish man, he qualifies through his parents - mum Bernie is from Monaghan and dad Phil is a Dubliner. He took silver on the floor in the Olympic test event in Rio earlier this year - an Irish first.
