This is Ryan Goodwin, from Clean to the core.
He tragically passed away recently whilst working.

Whilst cleaning a roof, a gust of wind blew high voltage electric cables towards him and he was electrocuted, tragically ending his life and changing his wife’s, and young children’s lives forever.

Some great members of our cleaning community have set up a go fund me to help support the family during this tragic time.

To all other exterior cleaners, please be extremely vigilant out there when working near electricity.
This is something that, as housing developments spread through the countryside, bringing our work area closer to these extremely dangerous electric lines, is unfortunately becoming more common.

Well worth the watch, half hour well spent.

This morning we learned about the tragic passing of Judo legend and the father of Brett Johns, Andrew Burt.

When Brett switched from Judo to MMA, Andrew was an ever present part of the team. Brett proudly represented Pontarddulais Judo Club along side his MMA gym. A larger than life character, Andrew was the loudest in the corner as Brett
ascended through the amateur and then professional MMA rankings.

Andrew was no stranger to competition himself, a team GB representative who was selected for the 1984 Olympics. Unfortunately his career was cut short after a succession of knee injures which eventually led to a leg amputation. But it never slowed him down and he continued to be heavily involved in judo.

The iconic picture below was a regular occurrence in the South Wales MMA scene, with Andrew lifting himself up from his wheelchair to congratulate Brett on another stellar victory.

We pass our sincere condolences to Brett and his family at this difficult time.

RIP Andrew Burt, a true Welsh martial arts legend.

Congratulations Brett Johns on an epic career, we wish you and your family the absolute best on your next exciting chapter. What a send off this evening at WOW FC, you have inspired so many in the sport and will continue do for years to come.

Llongyfarchiadau mawr iawn Brett ar yrfa anhygoel, dymuniadau gorau i ti a'r teulu yn eich pennod nesaf. Am noson i'w cofio, rwyt wedi ysbrydoli nifer yn y gamp heddiw a pharhu dros y blynyddoedd i ddod.🙏

RIP Mike “The Hammer” Edwards.

Mike was one of the true pioneers of Welsh MMA. A local hard man turned world level competitor and true mixed martial artist. Mike was a towering presence in the light-heavyweight division and recorded huge wins against the likes of Jamie Hearn and Jake Bostwick on UCMMA.

He was also on the verge of signing a contract with Pride FC - the world’s top MMA promotion at the time, before it the company collapsed.

Mike will be remembered in the etchings of Welsh MMA forever, a true warrior.

15 years on from their match up at UCMMA - Dino Gambatesa faces off against a former opponent, now friend in Munich Airport - the legendary Brad “One Punch” Pickett
