Canadian High Jumping legend Debbie Brill talks about developing the 'Brill Bend,' comparisons to the 'Fosbury Flop' [and her relationship with Dick Fosbury], jumping [and breaking world records] into her 50s, her positive interview experiences on the CBC with Adrienne Clarkson and Peter Gzowski, reaching that zen place of being ‘one with the jump,’ sharing a good chuckle with Queen Elizabeth, and why jumping ridiculously high was essentially “just this trick I could do for fun!”
Debbie will be inducted into the Trailblazer category at Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame on October 23rd in Gatineau, Quebec...for more information, please visit Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame at http://www.sportshall.ca/ and the Order of Sport Awards at https://orderofsport.ca/
