On Friday morning, the man from Hendra, Queensland, was doing the rounds of morning TV and radio. McConnell said he is not a "health nut" and does not exclusively eat organic, but drinks an organic beer made in New South Wales because "it's different". So great to have our new Aussie hero Daniel McConnell back this morning! The father-of-four said the driver told him he had fallen asleep and told him not to "be a hero". Despite his heroic efforts toward bringing the person responsible to justice, McConnell was modest when asked if he felt like a hero.
