Australian, James Harrison (aged 84) is also known as the man with the "Golden Arm", after having a life-saving transfusion at the age of 14 he was determined to donate some of his own blood in return. Turns out he has a rare antibody that prevents hemolytic disease in newborn babies. Harrison has donated his blood over 1,000 times (every week of his life!) and it's estimated that in his lifetime he has saved over 2.4 million babies! Good on ya mate!
