And over a decade later he finally got his olympic gold medal. I actually got emotional watching him win it with Matty.

[@ThomasJr]

what is an Olymoic medal? Is that a special category?

[@icemoons]

@@ThomasJr An olympic medal, as in the Olympic Games... The biggest sport event in history.

[@ThomasJr]

@@icemoons Yes, but I was asking about the Olymoic medal, and that you didn't explain

Hard to believe he was bullied at school instead of celebrated. But, as the saying goes, "Living well is the best revenge." Tom has certainly proved that true.

[@vietanhnguyen91]

He got gold medal now

[@naturelover9406]

Agreed. He has got a successful loving husband, cute son and a gold medal. His bullies? Most probably nothing and remain losers.
