Documentary reveals struggles and triumphs of world champion surfer Andy Irons

STEVE JONES:

You know, a lot of people that we've spoken to weren't necessarily aware of the bipolar disorder or the mental illness. Like, I think that the drug thing was pretty prevalent. Andy talked about wanting to come out with his story and go clean and tell the world like, "Hey, this is who I am and this is what I've been struggling with. And I have been to rehab." There were, you know, some people encouraging him to do that and some people going, "You can't talk about that." Like, "You're a well-paid pro athlete. The face of several different brands. And that's a story that we don't want to tell, we're not comfortable telling."
