00:00Pingat has become the number one sport in the world, but what about Pingat?
00:05If that's what makes an athlete lose his head and lose his direction,
00:09what about Pingat if that's what makes an athlete lazy?
00:13Sometimes, the story of failure to bring home a pingat makes an athlete more eager to achieve success
00:21and to become a far more perfect athlete.
00:24Despite losing the Paralympics in Paris, Fariz Anwar has a second chance.
00:30Here's a report by reporter Karl Nunez.
00:35I had an accident when I was 15 years old, in Form 3.
00:41I was on my way to the shop.
00:44It was raining and the road was wet.
00:50There was a car blocking my way, so I got hit by the car.
00:56My right hand was injured, but the worst part was my arm.
01:10I couldn't straighten my right hand.
01:13There were many other issues, but I didn't have a choice.
01:17After school, I didn't have a destination.
01:22I was able to represent the youth team.
01:27At first, I was disappointed by the accident.
01:33I felt sad and regretted it.
01:37After school, I didn't want to play badminton anymore.
01:47I started working in Legoland.

02:34Eventually, I will regain my momentum as an athlete.
02:38I can see my future.

03:39I didn't expect to be a substitute for Mr Lee Hau.
03:44He has been waiting for the Paralympics for 15 years.
