You know you can literally step off the back of a vehicle and twist your ankle \u2013 I\u2019ve seen that on SAS selection. It\u2019s just the luck of the draw. Everything you do, especially something like this where you\u2019re being pushed physically, mentally and it\u2019s very much demanding, there\u2019s always an element of luck.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Billy admitted he\u2019s experienced injuries himself during training, saying: \u201cWhen I do this selection, when it came to the very last march, which is the longest march you\u2019ll ever do in your life with the most amount of weight, my right knee was the size of my waist, but I just was at a point where I thought, \u2018I\u2019m not giving up now\u2019 and I just went for it and did it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cWe do as much mitigation as we can to keep it as safe as possible, but you can wrap people in cotton wool and they\u2019ll still fall over.
