Nice one for asking the speed question
How about this: Ben was pretty much the best back in the day, does he reckon he would be pretty much best now as well if he was 25 given what we know about training etc these days? Would be be do Change and La Dura Dura as well as Goia (sp?) etc??

Ask him whether he thought he could have made it as a footballer, and if so would he rather have done that than climbing?
