The Caveman

Hong Kong 7s always brings an influx of visitors into the city.  Some are here to watch the rugby, but most are usually just here to party.

Todd had made his now annual trip to Hong Kong for another edition of HK7s and this year he had managed to get into town earlier than his usual "day of".  It gave us a bit more time to walk around and hang out.  This year, I took him to have a look at Tai Kwun.  We were walking near one of the galleries when we spotted a gigantic man with an even more gigantic beard.

It was Sebastian Chabal!
The "Caveman" was once one of the most famous rugby players not only in France, but also in the world.  His distinctive look made him instinctively recognisable on tv and I can only imagine how terrifying it would have been to have had him running towards you for a tackle.
