Nice hero ‘willing to die’ as he held on to truck

The have-a-go hero French motorcyclist who tried to stop the truck massacre in Nice last week has revealed he was “ready to die” as he punched the driver while clinging to the door of the speeding vehicle.

Grainy footage of the man’s efforts have been watched around the world millions of times on social media.

However, the fate of the motorcyclist was not known until three days ago, when it emerged he was still alive after the attack.
