‘I used to compete in the 110m hurdles but didn’t have enough space to train as we lived on top of a very steep hill,’ he said.

‘My dad built me a single hurdle out of timber and I used the 15 meter driveway we had to practice over and over again.’

‘Just he and I till the sun went down having fun, having a laugh. I got 2 state medals with his help. Here we are 25 years on still laughing and still moving.

Film fans will be glad to see filming has resumed after production was shut down earlier this month after director George Miller caught Covid-19.

It’s understood Miller, 77, tested positive and had to isolate at his Sydney home.

Furiosa is a prequel to 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road, with actress Anya Taylor-Joy starring as the titular character.

Furiosa began production in Broken Hill in April, with scenes also being filmed in various locations across New South Wales.
