Talking about the wildfires, American swimming great Gary Hall Jr also became one of the victims as he had to evacuate his house, in which he lost all his Olympic medals.
Gary Hall Jr., who lived in the affected area of Pacific Palisades in a rented home, lost several belongings, including a swimming pool and even his ten Olympic medals.
“It was worse than any apocalypse movie you’ve ever seen and 1000 times worse,” he said,” Hall said, in an interview in the aftermath of his evacuation.
“It’s mayhem in Los Angeles. We were surrounded by flames. The embers were raining down on me as I jumped into my car. I had time to grab my dog and just a couple of personal items. It’s just every person for themselves,” Hall said, speaking about the traumatic events that took place.
In the rush to escape, Hall had no choice but to let go of his ten Olympic medals. Hall had won five golds, three silvers and two bronzes through the 1996 Atlanta, 2000 Sydney and 2004 Olympic Athens Games.
“I did think about the medals. I did not have time to get them. Everyone wants to know did the medals burn? Yeah, everything burnt. It’s something I can live without. I guess everything is just stuff. It’ll take some hard work to start over. Hall lamented.
