Description

British diver Tom Daley was just 14 years old when he made his Olympic debut at Beijing 2008. The now five-time Olympic medallist is a household name in the UK and beyond, and is sharing his story in a new Olympic Channel documentary, '1.6 Seconds.' Daley sits down with Olympics.com producer Scott Bregman to discuss the project, as well as reflect on his nearly two-decade-long career in the water - and how he navigated his biggest moments, including coming out as queer, the passing of his father, body image issues and more. Plus, fellow out Olympian Gus Kenworthy shares how Daley inspired him on his own journey.

'1.6 Seconds' is now available on Olympics.com for the U.S. audience. The documentary is set for a wider release on 14 June.
