my side I had a dream and you

know we at school you always

a question when we are small when

you arrive at the beginning of the year on

ask you what you want to do

later

and I said I want to be

Olympic champion and media prof

no, but you did not understand that

question what do you want to do

later as dairy if champion

Olympic was really you are you

you’ll put yourself in the back of the class and

when it will be what you want to do more

later you’ll come back and that’s a

ritornello in my life I always

wanted to be Olympic champion but I

did not even know what at the time

to tell you and I discovered that the

swimming a little bit later and

after I said to myself I ‘ll be

Olympic swimming champion

so I did not know how

to do my told me it was very loud

you can return to sport studies

so I swam a lot very young at

college I went back to sport

studies

sports studies it allows to eat

every day and then to have some

studies done with transport and then

I was told they made me dream

I was told it was really very loud

you can go to the pole hope you

to make beautiful and there I am

driven hard and I went back to

pole hope in high school then the pole

hope it allowed you to arrange his

high school and to be able to do high schools

over 4 years is to pass his baccalaureate

four years and trained a little bit

more than you recognize between 30 and 40

hours a week and in this

period there though I was that

world champion in training

the world champion of training

it’s simple ie I was

able to do things

exceptional a workout but

when I came into competition there

had no one

I was fourth at the foot of the podium

a few hundredths of the rate

international and my coach has

besides often told me it would be necessary

maybe swim a little faster

that but I tended to do some

exceptional things especially in

this period I swam 12h out of the 12

swimming hours and I beat the

record in doing 42 km and I’m

remind to get out of the water completely

exhausted rinse and my coach is watching me

and tells me it’s good but it’s used to

nothing

thank you skin you say yes it’s true you

the goal is to be

champion is not to make the puppets

business 42 km it’s true he has

never put in my cv 42 km in 12

hours I do not know if it serves to

someone today to do that but

I could have put as a champion

de france but I was not able to

and we come to the end of high school

my coach tells me listen you have three

solutions the first I make a podium

today in France

the second you make international the

third of the trips you imagine

well I made fourth to two

hundredths of the international time so

I was fired and the dream

collapses I did not even have that

I wanted to make champion appear

Olympic so I asked myself a lot

of questions but mostly I fell into

depression

it’s something that I wish to

nobody especially at that age 19 years old

was asking a lot of questions and and

I did a little bit anything

went back to medicine because yes

my second dream was to be

surgeon

I had no easy dreams but when

the cot the teacher really did not want

off the hook what do you want to do

as a profession Thursday Olympic champion

surgeon but hey I hung

I go to medicine did not last

very long time on the benches of

medicine it is especially this

depression that won me I took 30

kilos in a few months

and there I was at the bottom of the bucket one day

I wake up after the evening and a

little bit watered and I ask myself

full of questions and I say but what is

what are you doing there what are you doing

why are you taking the box that

what do you want and I thought

I do not oppose the sofa a little

foggy but if you want to be

happy questions easy answer

easy did not tell me how

that I’m here I say I’ll go

pragmatic I’m going to do a little

listing

so I do a checklist I have not

put the ferrari in and then the account

1000 km year with 1 million no I have not

at all that I put things a little bit

all I could have and who

could make me happy and I got

realized as

I wrote that I did it’s here

that she had everything I needed

told me but then why are you

poor simple question yet because

you do not want it so I told myself this

day there I want to be happy and I

I am told you have every day

to say in front of the ice I want to be

happy

I fought and I became

happy like that little by little

did not pass in two days I you

reassure the next day I was not there

my people are all right but it took

a little bit of time but I am

became happy and then I took over

studies the studies of staps sciences and

physical activity techniques and

sports to become a sports teacher

proof of ps all sports trades

and in that period the teachers

know how to do it and told me

you could arnage and it should more

of points so suddenly I went

swim and I was training I

I was training again I lost

little weight I became the man again

that I wanted to be and especially in June

2008 I become champion of France of the 50

m butterfly

well if it’s good champion france all

my dreams are achievable

the biggest teams reminds me and

tell me good bachar you would not come

swim with us I tell myself everything is

possible finally chose to continue

with my coach the one who had been

honest with me who had pushed me

in my entrenchments with whom I had

not necessarily known to be the best but

I tell myself everything is possible and the 26

July 2008 while I was master

swimmer on a pool not far from dijon

I come back from motorcycle work a

driver will cut me off the road

I will not fly long

reassure because after we crash

and then I will meet a barrier

security young people to report

than the bar and stronger security

that my arm since my arm is going to go

in the fence and it’s going to make you crack

and I have an open fracture of

the humerus I end up in the hospital

and there the doctors tell me but you

do not worry sir rousseau you

have a fracture we fix it and all

will be fine what in a few

month everything will be better here I see myself

already Olympic champion

why not me others had it

succeeded alexandre popov this great swimmer

who was stabbed and who came back

at the highest level after why not

me and so I cling to this dream

and there I spend days in my

hospital bed it’s hot it’s

summer and I’m waiting I’m waiting for a day

I have one of his urges to pee and

I look at a toilet was bedridden in

my bed I call nurses for

to come because we pee

poop in his bond when we are bedridden

and nobody can be in the heart of

toilet I feel like sir

clean has just passed

but no it is not past but here I

take my pair I go to the toilet and

happiness relief you

know that too

alas the nurses come in screaming

in the room but what do you

do sir get it’s dangerous

must not get up it’s been several

weeks that you are in your bed

it’s dangerous but you’re walking

sir rozoy well yeah I do not have people

cut me a little

come tell us and here I understood that

no one would ever take by the hand

and so it was the beginning of a new

challenge a challenge to leave the hospital

I went to see the doctor I told him

said listen to me I want to go home

me told me it’s not because you

are up and go to the toilet that

you can walk and was well I

tell when we would go around

the hospital walking we will talk about it again

I left with my pair I got

sitting on a bench after a week

I went around the hospital he

was forced to relax and then

well here are the days except the advanced

braille everything was still moving not I do not

still did not move my arm I had

the arm completely inert and there I

find me at a visit to a home

doctor

and this doctor to do me exams

he was hovering in the arm

children this needle he says you

feel the young person on the other hand without anything and

then the plan of villans and then sending

viewing costs and then one side of the

hand that makes sense and the other side that

not move then start taking a

serious look

read dress up I get dressed said

sir fortunately enough serious I

I’m going to plant needles

just now in the arm I have

since it was still

no it’s really serious do not

laugh

your life is fucked you have an arm

who can walk will never walk the

Sport is finished your career in

sports professionals it’s over there

must stop will have to do something else

I can tell you I do not have much

cried during everyone crash

but at that moment there is a tear

who escaped me crate started to

to run on my cheek he puts there sir

rozoy you’re not going to piss off it’s not

like if you come from AIDS you do not have

not to die either

that’s the pedagogy in all are fed up

I could have met bring this a

little more pedagogue what I have

did very soon after since

I met a great surgeon that

I still thank today

professor oberlin who in paris me

operated and very quickly told me the man

implies that he will have to calm the nerves

who are torn off at the level of the

spinal cord that nerves the arm and and

who kept me from moving they told me

said well here we are going to operate at

the better you get that at least

it was very clear framed

but at ten but with one arm you can

do a lot of things

do not say you can totally live your life

with an arm from elsewhere today

jelly seen since I would not have the

time in all my life to do what

I want with but with only one arm so

a corner of what I used to

to have two because I dream I would have

could do even more things so

so here we are at father and at

wait for it to recover and then I

do my rehab sessions then

comes to the pool because my

thiney tells me it would be nice if you

Ailles to the pool to make

golden recovery sessions less

bad it would be easier

and here I am in the water like that in

the small pool where I spent

hours and hours to swim then like

that in the small basin to move my

arm it hurts it’s hard foot

young people posing on the edge of

basin who come to train six

seven years old at about the age when I

started swimming and I dreamed

to be Olympic champion month and these

young people look at me they do hold back what

hero must what was swimming well

before now she is fucking done of

water aerobics

but I say that’s not going to do it I’m

out of the water

I will see them once you say is

like that in nanananner water we’re going

do a race without seeing kiss & kill

damn I tied my arm we got

make a race during a sheet

necessarily and there was my coach

who was on the other side who

cross who comes to see me he has to me

see and they dined car

would not take swimming Thursday shot of

coach rotates acted for to win

what do you want me to do was

swam with one arm I’ll never get there

I ‘ll never be champion he says but you

favorite of the disabled

I regret it I will tell them sport

it is for the disabled said

think about your answer and come back

to see me I went home

took my time

since the occurrence of seeing I said

listening listening is a project of

become a Paralympic champion but said

this is your project we go and so

here I am again in the water

was in January 2009 six months after

my accident I’m their manager

championships of France in March becomes

champion of France

like I reiterate in June I become

new champion france I qualify

for the european championships the

world championships in october i’m doing

the first european championships and

becomes European champion in November I

become world champion

then he is sure competition change m

and when you could see it I

managed to achieve my dream

in 2012 on august 30, 2012 in london in

becoming a Paralympic Champion

after this intervention usually

we always ask a question it’s yes

I am a project but I do not dream

to be Olympic champion

and then anyway in life

the important thing is 2 importance and two

yes, it’s not true

so it seems like a guy who

is called coubertin stone is said

the important thing is to participate

but it’s not true he said the important

it is to participate but only the

victory is beautiful

it changes a little bit the sentence I say

it that what is important is not

participate the important thing is to do

the bitter yourself overtaking yourself from

not regret going to the end

to regret nothing

so today here I wanted

share that with you to tell you that

the important thing is that we all have

dreams

what are you ready to

sacrifice to achieve your dreams

what are you willing to do

since you really want that

question is what you are willing to

give everything to achieve the best

worse

[Applause]
