'Talent' champ Sampson has spine condition
Published Monday, Jun 2 2008, 12:42 BST | By Simon Reynolds

The Britain's Got Talent winner told The Sun that he has Scheuermann’s disease, a curvature of the spine that left him blind in one eye last year.
The 14-year-old breakdancer said: "The eye was all inflamed. The spinal nerves were trapped and it affected my optic nerves.
"I lost all my coordination and it was really hard to dance, as I didn’t have my balance. I kept bumping into everything.
"'There were a few times when I panicked that my eyesight wouldn't come back."
Despite the condition, which doctors say could leave him crippled if he carries on with his dynamic dance routines, George admitted that "there's no way I'd ever give up dancing. Nothing would stop me."
