The Most Violent Prisoner in Britain is Actually a Best-Selling Fitness Author
He wrote a fitness book in prison
The lockdown gave people boredom.
Boredom made people restless.
Restlessness paved way to new hobbies.

We wouldn’t typically think a best selling author being a prisoner. It’s surprising to know some of the famous books in the world were written & published from prisons. For example:
- Mein Kampf — By Adolf Hitler
- My Experiments With Truth — By Mahatma Gandhi
- The Prison Letters of Nelson Mandela — By himself
