The Howie Games

This is one of the most extraordinary comeback stories ever told on The Howie Games.
Olympic silver medallist Scott Miller opens up like never before, taking us from the heights of standing on the podium for Australia in Atlanta to the depths of addiction, prison and a life he says was spiralling towards death.
In a confronting and deeply honest conversation, Scott reveals the surreal moment armed police arrested him with a gun pointed at his head, and why, despite everything, his overwhelming emotion was relief.
He reflects on the silver medal that took 25 years to truly appreciate, the pressure and perfectionism that defined his swimming career, and why he couldn’t even watch the Olympics for decades after retiring.
He also shares the unseen challenges of rebuilding after three years in jail. It’s a raw, emotional and ultimately hopeful conversation about redemption, perspective and finding purpose after losing everything.
Don’t miss the compelling two-part ABC iview documentary charting Scott’s dramatic rise, devastating fall and ongoing fight to rebuild his life.
