Colin Jackson CBE is a British athletics legend. With an Olympic silver medal and two world championships, his dominance in the sport is clear.
He astoundingly went unbeaten for 12 years at the European Championships. For 13 years, he held the world record for the 110m hurdles and the world indoor record for 27 years.
Throughout his remarkable journey, he secured 25 major medals, including 12 gold and 8 silver. Not only is he a world record holder, but Colin Jackson is also adored as a media personality and motivational speaker.
He's a true national treasure and one of the most recognised athletes in Great Britain. After retiring from competitive athletics, his impressive medal collection and infectious personality led him to become a natural choice for the BBC's athletics commentary team.
For the past two decades, he has been an integral part of the team, covering major events such as the 2004 Athens Games and subsequent Olympic Games, including London in 2012, Rio de Janeiro in 2016, and most recently, Tokyo in 2020.
Colin Jackson is truly a British icon in athletics and beyond.
