Shane Warne Lived Life At Fast Pace, Created Invincible Feeling Around Him, Says Former Australia Captain Michael Clarke
Former Australia skipper Michael Clarke has condoled the demise of Shane Warne, saying the legendary spinner lived his life at a fast pace and created an invincible feeling around him. Warne had passed away on Friday aged 52 due to a suspected heart attack. "He lived his life at such a fast pace that he nearly created this invincible feeling around him. He was always on the go. You'd be 'mate, you can't do that' or 'you need to sleep' or 'how do you do that'. Everything was 24/7, like so fast - he started the car in fifth gear. Always tempting fate the whole time, you never thought it was possible, no way can you cut him down. I don't think there's too many things Shane didn't experience. He got every minute out of every day. Sleeping was not his strength," Clarke told Sky Sports Radio, as reported by Sydney Morning Herald.
