Lots of myth around Bronson, he hero worshipped Mannion when he was in there with him by dint of the fact Mannion trumped him at every physical discipline whilst weighing in @ 11 4.
Bizarrely topical...yesterday on the end of a ride somebody shouted my name, i spun round and recognised our local Bronson who had not been seen for 20yrs (been held in the Maze/various nut houses and Done 11 in Ashworth). He went to pat me on the head and checked when my feet got rapidly unclipped (no touching)..i said nowt and held his eyes and he went straight into a 'i only ever defended meself number' whilst i was thinking how clever it was of him to forget his purposeful attempt at collapsing my bottle many moons earlier. Funny thing about loons..whilst he was fading with his only self-defence routine he winded what me eyes were recalling and could not stop the wave of embarrasment entering his skin...i said nowt (like he did that day many yrs ago) and he could'nt get on the approaching bus fast enough. personally i don't call 'em loons....i prefer 'manipulators'.
