Greg: A ghost in my house made me jump

OLYMPIC LONG-JUMP HERO REVEALS HIS SCARY SPOOKY ENCOUNTER

- KIM CARR

DANCING On Ice star Greg Rutherford has revealed how a ghostly experience in the middle of the night encouraged him to move house.

The former Olympian was left shaken after something spooky forced him out of his slumber.

Greg, 37, says: "It was one of the most terrifying experiences of my life.

"I was at my old house and remember seeing what looked like this grotesque woman coming out of the wall towards me.

"I screamed the house down and couldn't move because I was half asleep.

"I woke my poor fiancée Susie up, who was in an absolute panic.

"As I came to properly, there was nothing there. Still to this day, who knows? Maybe there was some form of ghost in the house.

Stunts

"We moved - maybe that was the house telling me I needed to get out."

Now balancing on blades instead of leaping into the sandpit, the former track and field athlete - who specialised in the long jump - wants Dancing On Ice's bosses to throw him the biggest stunts.
