7/7 survivor: 'I still think I'm a lucky one'

On the 7 July it will be the 10 year anniversary of the 7/7 attacks, when four bombs ripped across London's transport network, killing 52 people and injuring more than 700.

One of the survivors of those attacks, Martine Wright, had both her legs amputated above the knee after being injured in the Aldgate underground explosion.

She was in a coma for 10 days and had to undergo 10 months of surgery following the injury.

Martine went on to represent Great Britain in the 2012 Paralympics and says she thinks losing her legs was all part of her fate in life.
