As a child I bet you didn't know that Ahman was faced with a number of tough situations. The first was when he had a rod stuck in his jaw after trying to get some silly puddy and falling of a ledge. The second incident had to do with not backing down to a challenge. Ahman was racing a friend in the gym of his school and was running so fast that he couldn't stop and ran into a wall thereby breaking both of his wrists and giving himself a concussion. Talk about warp speed!!!
