In 45 years this man has broken every finger and both thumbs

David Morrison is anything but a safe pair of hands.

In 45 years of wicket keeping, the amateur league cricketer has broken every finger and both his thumbs. Reluctant to seek medical attention for fear of losing his place in the team, he would simply apply a bag of frozen peas and carry on playing.
Mr Morrison, a taxi driver from Scruton, suffered most of his injuries in his younger days wearing flimsy chamois leather gloves.
