In Paralympic Games history, Sweden's 48-year-old Jonas Jacobsson is easily one of the all-time greats.
The London 2012 Paralympic Games were his ninth Paralympic appearance, and he now has 17 Paralympic golds, two silvers and nine bronze to his name.
Born and raised in Kolmarden, outside of Norrkoping, Jacobsson was diagnosed with a paralysis shortly after birth.
However, the use of a wheelchair was not an obstacle to the boy, who got involved in tennis, basketball and swimming.
But then Jacobsson displayed an unusual talent at a sport his whole family was engaged in: Shooting.
At 14, Jacobsson attended his first international competition and joined his first Paralympic Games in 1980, when was 15 years old.
At the Amhem 1980 Paralympic Games Jacobsson started his vast Paralympic medals collection with one silver and one bronze.
Twenty-eight years later, at Beijing 2008, Jacobsson won three golds in the three events he participated in.
In over 30 years competing in Shooting, Jacobsson’s glorious career also includes 17 World and 22 European Championships titles.
Highly admired at his home country, in 2001 Jacobsson received The King’s Medal, conceded by the Swedish Royal to citisens with special merits.
Spectators following shooting events at the London 2012 Paralympic Games watched a Paralympic legend.
Despite rumours that Jacobsson may retire before Rio 2016, at the moment he's going on as strong as ever.
