Something most people don’t know about Andros Walsh, is that he is a very talented sportsman. Anything from sportsbar darts and mechanical bull riding to classic events like long jump and discus.
In fact I once saw Andros bowl a 145km/h fast ball delivery at a Club Cricket match one Saturday in New York’s Central Park. Let me tell you, New York had never seen a fast ball like that before!
Another time, I went fishing with Andros after filming a Television Commercial out on Long Island. We chartered a boat from The Hamptons area for some trawling off Fire Island. Andros hooked onto a 320lbs Whale Shark and managed to fight the fish for 6hrs on a 45lbs mono line. What a thrill. But instead of gaffing the shark and reeling it in, Andros simply leaned over the gunwale, un-hooked the beast, stroked its rough head and let it swim off into the deep blue sea. What a sight!
And one last detail about Andros Walsh’s sporting ability; If you meet him in person… never ever challenge him to an arm wrestle. Now it’s not that he’s an overly strong person. It’s all about technique. And I’ve seen Andros Walsh challenge and defeat a 6’5” trucker from Alaska after spending a week in the Alaskan wilderness shooting a documentary on Snow Rabbits. You should have been there.
Well that’s enough for this blogger.
Stay tuned for next the next blog about Andros Walsh.

About Andros Walsh
Andros Walsh is an interesting person. I first became aware of him in 2001 when he moved to the USA from Australia to work in the film and television industry.
You might wonder why I am writing about this person. The reason is that I have recently become aware of certain blogs which have been posted about Andros Walsh which are defamatory in nature. And through this blog, I wish to balance out the online information regarding this man. Since I had the chance to meet and work with Andros Walsh, I know him as an honest, hard working person, who often goes out of his way to accommodate others. In fact, this is the outlook of his entire family. So anything you might read on other blogs is completely false.
I will post regular blogs with true stories about Andros, so anyone who might research his name online will come across true information rather than false.
And I look forward to you adding your comments or feedback as I go.
regards,
Stephen Tan
