Big love to Fabrice for sharing your story with the HH fam. The world is a better place with Fab in it! Proper lovely bloke. Who fancies a fourth Fab clip tomorrow...?! 🇳🇺
it’s crazy how before fabrice collapsed, there weren’t any cardiologists or specified heart doctors at pitchside. This man might’ve been the reason that Erikson survived his cardiac arrest as he had the proper medical care🤷♂️
Even more shocking is that it happened to other players around that period and also that some people didn't learn from it. Nouri got awful treatment and he was not so fortunate as muamba. Also shoutout to the cardiologist who was in the stands who saved Muamba.
I’m shocked Muamba is only 33 now. That means he was 23 and at the time, so younger than me when he had a cardiac arrest. 23 years old is so young to be having a life threatening experience like that
I had a cardiac arrest this year 13 days before my 22nd birthday. The day after Eriksen collapsed at the euros n I was watching the game too. Both guys are v lucky to be here but there’s been plenty others that haven’t made it unfortunately
I was diagnosed with cancer on my birthday 5 years ago. I’m saying this because I just felt like the most unlucky person in the world when I found out, just like Muamba. It took me some time but I realized I was very lucky even though it wasn’t good luck. When I was sitting there truly just looking at my own mortality I realized in my specific situation I’m very lucky to be alive. I realized that we aren’t guaranteed tomorrow’s. That’s how I try to live everyday now. I’ve been cancer free for 4 years now and I’m blessed to be typing this. If you are reading this just know that you are loved by someone and you belong in this world.❤️
Fabrice is an absolute inspiration. Probably in my top 5 episodes. Still remember everything about that moment. St Patrick's Day, evening kick off, I had just come in from playing a match. 15 year old me had just sat down, dinner in hand, when it happened. Literally just sat there in shock. Had no affiliation to either team but had tears streaming down my face when "Fabrice Muamba" rung out around White Hart Lane. The man is a walking miracle. Brilliant episode lads fair play, what a great guest to have!
So many young lives saved off the back of this ❤️ So thankful Fabrice survived that, and so grateful of the increased awareness and research into similar heart conditions since 🇳🇺
My mum and dad were in the stadium that day and they always say how quiet the stadium was when the incident occurred aside from a couple chants of support from both sides, must have been so eerie
I have seen a lot more AED kits around the country in recent years. I know Muamba was campaigning for that after his ‘accident’. He had horrible luck, but he has saved many lives with his actions afterward.
I spoke to this guy at a wedding in 2017. I was pretty drunk so I wasn’t speaking fluently but the general gist was that I told him that I remember him being a really solid player for Bolton and that I was glad to see him so healthy now. He was really humble and polite the whole time and even took a selfie with me. A true gentleman
I was the same age as Muamba was when I had my cardiac arrest back in 2014. The bloody doctors showed me Van Loo, who had a internal defibulator installed in 2008 and went down (and back up) in 2009. Now you have Daley Blind, and of course Eriksen who isn't back to playing yet but was an absolute champ. A pro football pitch is a relatively fantastic place to have a cardiac arrest. I really appreciate the efforts of Muamba to spread AEDs and promote CPR training so that people anywhere and everywhere have a chance. In my case, if my mother didn't know what she was doing, I'd be dead or too much of a carrot to be typing here. Go learn CPR, folks.
I was 16 when I was sat in the Paxton Road stand for that game. Was never so scared or felt more helpless in my life. Fabrice has a special place in Spurs hearts for his amazing recovery! I’m sure that incident must have had some influence on me now I’ve gone on to become a nurse ☺️
How can you not love this guy? Such a pure and genuine guy. Jack - its a talent you have to make people feel so comfortable and be so open. Appreciate these kind of interviews pal!
I saw Fabrice 2 years ago, I work at Boston Scientific where his defibrillator was assembled and he visited the site and the actual people that built his specific device. Top man and an amazing story. Truly a blessing he is with us today
I'm an American and a Spurs fan. My future wife and I went to the UK for the first time in March of 2012 to go to this game at old White Heart Lane. It was a beautiful night and the weather was perfect but then Muamba collapsed and it was terrifying. They were frantically doing CPR on the pitch and the whole place went quiet which is surreal at a Premier League match. Tottenham handled it with class. I kept up on his story and was shocked to learn his heart stopped for over an hour. I was so happy he made it through ok. Such a good dude. Go Spurs.
He seems like the most humble bloke as well. Just someone you could sit down and have a beer with and just chat for hours on end. Respect to him for pulling through his accident as well
Fabrice is a truly brilliant human. Truely the luckiest person on this planet! So glad he’s okay now and has managed to raise awarenesss for the need for defibrillators, raise money for charity etc. So glad to see that such a near tragedy has been used to hopefully save so many other people! Bless up Fabrice 🙏🏼
He was 2 years above me at school. We played teachers v students and I was left mid and he was next to be in cm.. up close it looked like Iniesta, you don't realise how good he was and how good these mid table prem players are.
As a Bolton fan I remember this so clearly! Game was broadcasted on espn, never been so upset about a football match. He was such a talent at Bolton such a shame his career was cut short.
Absolutely legend, he is one of those people where you can just tell ‘what a nice person he is even without knowing him personally’. Stay healthy bro 🙏🏽
I don’t think I’ll ever forget hearing his name chanted around White Hart Lane that day. Makes my hair stand on end to think about even though I only watched on through a TV screen. One of the greatest men to ever come from football, great to see he’s healthy and so level headed about it all, top bloke!
I remember every exact detail of that day. I was 8 years old and my team (West Brom) were away at Wigan in a Premier league game and we drew 1-1, most boring 1-1 draw there's ever been. On the 2 & half hour journey back to Walsall, we were on the M6 motorway and the weather just turned completely. Thunder and lightning and it was pitch black. Rain coming down quite heavily aswell, I've seen bad weather before but that experience was particularly eerie. We didn't even know anything bad had happened. We got back home at around ten to 8 in the evening. We turned on sky and they just said "Tottenham vs Bolton abandoned" and we thought it was to do with the bad weather, then they went live to the hospital and we still just thought "ok maybe it was just a bad leg break" but then it obviously clicked that this was much worse than just a bad leg injury. I remember when he walked out onto the pitch at the Reebok against Tottenham in May and seeing that on tv was genuinely emotional, we played them a few days later at the Reebok and I remember when they went 1 & 2-0 up, all Albion fans were actually cheering their goals because the whole nation just wanted Bolton to stay up after what the club had been through but unfortunately we ruined that, made it 2-2 and sent them down. I'll never ever forget where I was and every little detail of that day! Impossible to forget
I had a similar heart condition as Fabrice, but was fortunate enough to have it operated on before anything bad happened. I was 16 when I had open heart surgery, around a year before Fabrice's accident. Seeing what happened to him, and following his life afterwards has been a constant inspiration to me. Fabrice, I know it's a really shitty thing you went through, but you've always been my hero. Keep up the grind ❤❤❤
A defibrillator would not have worked in this case. A defibrillator is there if the heart fibrillates, where the hearts pulse is erratic/off. If your heart stops, chest compressions and CPR is the only thing that can help. A good to know tip.
So crazy to hear his side of what happened. Words cannot describe it. Shout out to the medical personnel and cardiologist who came to the pitch. So wholesome how they were invited to the wedding as well. God bless you Muamba! 🙏🏾
Spurs fan, was sat in my living room watching and was such a scary moment and the silence in the stadium added to it. Its so good though to hear these stories because you hope it makes businesses around the world get defibs. Fab is such an inspiration! Hopefully one day you can get Eriksen on as well.
Man this was a hard watch but I was waiting for this one. I suffer with a heart arrhythmia which the doctors have told me isn’t harmful, but still with daily palpitations my biggest fear is something like this happening to me. Muamba is an inspiration and he’s done a lot to raise awareness.
Ur not alone dude, I’m terrified of this happening even though I have no known heart conditions. I work out a lot and hard, so I’m probably at higher than average risk of dying suddenly by cardiac arrest. I have honestly no idea how to cope with it other than just trying to focus on something else to distract me
I remember this as i was in the south stand, park lane. I remember it going completely silent and then both sets of fans chanting together,then some guy running across the pitch who'd obviously recognised what had happened.
I was there with my dad in the Park Lane South Lower, probably thirty yards away from it. It was very surreal being witness to near death in such an environment. I was shaken for a couple of days after. Amazed he pulled through.
I remember coming home from a Fulham match I think and my dad told me about it while we were on the bus. It was a surreal time but I was very young so only remember patches of it. Fabrice is such an inspiration.
Scary moment always remember hearing it on the radio and it was before social media really started and it was just breaking news on all the news stations! Great that he’s had a great life after this moment!
Been waiting for this one! So glad fabrice made it. I saw it live aswell, at first I didn’t know what was going on, then I found out that he collapsed on the pitch. I was so scared for him.
I remember watching this game on the tv and being too young to really know what was going on, but I still knew something bad was happening. all the best to Fabrice, he’s such a hero
I was 14 when I watched this live at White Heart Lane, I can tell you now that no one in the stadium that night saw him hit the floor. I’ll never forget the silence that fell around the ground as the realisation of what was happening hit. The memory of Spurs and Bolton fans joining together to scream his name together as he was carried from the pitch still gives me chills. Truly a game that I will never forget.
I remember being on holiday & seeing the news of what happened with Fabrice. Never seen anything like it before. Then you'd the Erikson situation last year & even before that my Sunday League captain passed away at 26 from the same situation they'd been in. Marathon runner, work for the army, fittest lad you'd meet in your life. Just gone like that. Young people take for granted the time they're given. You're not guaranteed anything. When your time is done, it's done.
That’s just so depressing and terrifying, might as well get it over with quickly then instead of just waiting around to drop dead. Young people could die any moment, what can we even do
Was watching the match live on ITV. Such a surreal experience to witness. Was so glad he was ok. Seeing him return to White Hart lane for the replay brought a tear to my eye seeing every fan clapping for him.
Remember this so clearly and thinking he had no chance. Amazing skills by the first responders that essentially saved his life. This was a person that was supposed to live.
I'm glad this awful event meant changing a lot not only for football but all across the country. Because of Fabrice all schools have defibrillators now which has probably saved a lot of young people's lives.
This touched me when this happened because my cat died a week later coz he had a heart problem, I think I was 7 or 8 at the time, what an inspiration fabrice is
I remember it like it was yesterday because I was in hospital recovering from my cardiac arrest on the 1st March 2012. My heart was stopped for about an hour and I had to be defibrillated 6 times.
I still remember when that day happend ok was only little and was watching the game with my grandad and my dad on TV the day we will never forget so so glad he is still with us 🤍🤍
As soon as Eriksen looked like he was gonna survive, i tweeted Fab to say thank you. Hes lost his career so others wont lose their lives. Its just a shame we didnt learn earlier. The names weve lost because of inadequate medical facilities.
As a Bolton fan I was watching the game in my local pub, maybe 100/150 people in watching it and I remember the pub just fell completely silent you could literally hear a mouse fart, the good thing that came out of this is the increase in cardiac technology/responses at matches, he was a great player for us, always put a shift in and was gutted he couldn’t come back to play
I remember watching this live on ESPN. I believed it was Tottenham vs Bolton at White Hart Lane. I was so happy hear that he recovered from the incident and is in good health still 🙏
I'm a young kid from Bolton. The first football game i ever went to was a Bolton game with Muamba playing. The night of the game was also a few days before my 10th birthday so my dad took me and my brother to the local smyths to get our presents. Hell I remember what I got, a lego ninjago set and an optimus prime figure. Ironically said toy store is literally opposite the stadium. All my teenage years and so forth I've lived near and worked in middle Middlebrook. Im now nearly 20, a second year law student, hoping to commission into the army.
I remember watching this game on TV, and as a neutral, the result didn’t bother me. But seeing Muamba collapse like that, it brought a tear to my eye, as I thought he was going to pass.

wait, so, there are heart-specific doctors pitch side at games today?
Aidan Elve there are more specified doctors now but only at bigger games
European football in the big leagues and internationally got a lot more serious with Ned responses after Muamba.
A Tottenham fan was a heart doctor or something and ran onto the pitch and helped a lot
Fabrice is such an inspiration and seems like an absolutely lovely fella, really enjoyed this episode
He's a beautiful soul!
U have a lovely head
I’m a Bolton fan and I remember watching the Liverpool game the following day on sky and all game they were singing muambas name
Adrian is in goal today he's gonna be grand, he won't be conceding 6 unlike the other lot 😂
@@HappyHourPodcast get Craig lad on the show !
Wow, what a story and what a lovely guy! ❤
Hi RUclips big fan 😂
Edit:idk why but RUclips gave this a like
Hey RUclips
one of the most random comments I've ever seen.
Well, I didn't see this comment coming
ratio
I’m shocked Muamba is only 33 now. That means he was 23 and at the time, so younger than me when he had a cardiac arrest. 23 years old is so young to be having a life threatening experience like that
Especially considering Fabrice was an elite athlete at the time. Really shows it can happen to absolutely anyone.
hes a cute guy
Your point is valid but that’s not reality sadly.
I had a cardiac arrest this year 13 days before my 22nd birthday. The day after Eriksen collapsed at the euros n I was watching the game too. Both guys are v lucky to be here but there’s been plenty others that haven’t made it unfortunately

Congrats. That’s what we love to hear 🎉❤️
Glad you're doing good now mate!
Its absolutely fantastic that you got a great guy like this on. I remember the game very well. Those paramedics are legends!
The man that saved him was a spurs fan who was a cardiologist and he ran on the pitch to save him
@@fdc2367 yeah what a legend🙌
It was the Spurs team doctor and the Bolton medical team and that cardiologist told the ambulance to take him to a specialist hospital

I’m 23 and it’s such a sobering reminder that life can change so quick, what an inspiration this man is
So many young lives saved off the back of this ❤️ So thankful Fabrice survived that, and so grateful of the increased awareness and research into similar heart conditions since 🇳🇺
My mum and dad were in the stadium that day and they always say how quiet the stadium was when the incident occurred aside from a couple chants of support from both sides, must have been so eerie
The Eriksen incident felt similar
I was at the game and it was one of the most harrowing experiences I’ve had in my life, let alone at a football game. It was genuinely horrendous.
I have seen a lot more AED kits around the country in recent years. I know Muamba was campaigning for that after his ‘accident’. He had horrible luck, but he has saved many lives with his actions afterward.

Absolutely legend, he is one of those people where you can just tell ‘what a nice person he is even without knowing him personally’. Stay healthy bro 🙏🏽
Fascinating episode. Great to see Muamba again and to listen to him speak about that tragic night is so eye opening. Top dude

One of the greatest men to ever come from football, great to see he’s healthy and so level headed about it all, top bloke!
Truly truly unbelievable! Every time I hear him speak about it, it blows my mind! BLOWS MY MIND! What a player, what a man!
Just watched this after the Tottenham Newcastle game, its scary that we've had two high profile incidents of cardiac arrest in the sport.
I remember every exact detail of that day.
I was 8 years old and my team (West Brom) were away at Wigan in a Premier league game and we drew 1-1, most boring 1-1 draw there's ever been.

@@vamppro1778 Funnily enough Muambas heart didn't actually stop. It was in Ventricular Fibrillation which is a shockable rhythm.
@@hmaster3313 then a defibrillator would have worked, learn something new everyday

Still remember watching this game, thank goodness for the medical teams that got there instantly.
Medical professionals like them are the best of us
Best story you've had on here so far. Massive Respect to Fabrice
Incredible for Muamba to open up about this
Pretty sure he's been doing it for years now

I'm glad this awful event meant changing a lot not only for football but all across the country. Because of Fabrice all schools have defibrillators now which has probably saved a lot of young people's lives.
I can remember watching this on tv and it was probably the most surreal thing I’ve ever watched
This touched me when this happened because my cat died a week later coz he had a heart problem, I think I was 7 or 8 at the time, what an inspiration fabrice is
I was there watching it at the stadium that day. My god how scary was that moment , so glad to have heard he was Ok later on.
I remember it like it was yesterday because I was in hospital recovering from my cardiac arrest on the 1st March 2012. My heart was stopped for about an hour and I had to be defibrillated 6 times.
Yeah remember that well. Was a scary moment for sure. Glad he made a full recovery. He seems like such a positive, nice, down to earth bloke 😊
I still remember when that day happend ok was only little and was watching the game with my grandad and my dad on TV the day we will never forget so so glad he is still with us 🤍🤍
Love hearing that about Henry. He seems like he has a heart of gold. Fab too.
This has been one of my favourite guests on the podcast!
One of those moments I’ll never forget
As soon as Eriksen looked like he was gonna survive, i tweeted Fab to say thank you. Hes lost his career so others wont lose their lives. Its just a shame we didnt learn earlier. The names weve lost because of inadequate medical facilities.
I’ll never forget watching this game live and this happening it was so crazy
As a Bolton fan I was watching the game in my local pub, maybe 100/150 people in watching it and I remember the pub just fell completely silent you could literally hear a mouse fart, the good thing that came out of this is the increase in cardiac technology/responses at matches, he was a great player for us, always put a shift in and was gutted he couldn’t come back to play
I remember watching this live on ESPN. I believed it was Tottenham vs Bolton at White Hart Lane. I was so happy hear that he recovered from the incident and is in good health still 🙏
i was 9 years old when this happened and i still remember it happening
I remember watching the game when i was a kid, crazy how quick it happened.
I'm a young kid from Bolton. The first football game i ever went to was a Bolton game with Muamba playing. The night of the game was also a few days before my 10th birthday so my dad took me and my brother to the local smyths to get our presents. Hell I remember what I got, a lego ninjago set and an optimus prime figure. Ironically said toy store is literally opposite the stadium. All my teenage years and so forth I've lived near and worked in middle Middlebrook. Im now nearly 20, a second year law student, hoping to commission into the army.
first spurs game i ever went too it was so sad what a lovely guy
I remember watching this game on TV, and as a neutral, the result didn’t bother me. But seeing Muamba collapse like that, it brought a tear to my eye, as I thought he was going to pass.
This podcast is the best in the uk fr💖
15 years old Bolton fan I’m still shocked and don’t know who it happened poor man
