Frank Bruno Opens Up on Near-Death Experience During Flight

British boxing legend Frank Bruno, 63, suffered a severe health scare on a long-haul flight from Heathrow to Doha in March, where he became feverish, disoriented, and ultimately blacked out mid-flight. Upon landing, Bruno was taken off the plane in a wheelchair and rushed to a Qatari hospital, where he spent two weeks being treated for a viral infection. He credited his PA, Paul Hunter, for his survival, emphasizing that Hunter’s quick actions and presence were crucial during the ordeal. Bruno expressed regret over disappointing fans in Thailand, where he was scheduled for several meet-and-greet events, but said he had no memory of the incident until waking up in the hospital. After a doctor from London cleared him to fly, Bruno returned home and has since recovered, updating fans with reassurances about his health. The ordeal left Bruno reflecting on the seriousness of the situation and the importance of support during medical emergencies.
