There are very few people who’ve survived a death cap mushroom poisoning. Simon Claringbold is one of them.
In this episode Simon describes what it was like in ‘the death zone,’ as his vision narrowed, he was measured up for a liver transplant and he accepted his fate, before a miraculous turnaround saw him walk out of hospital.
