Private Project

Mathew vs Pritchard

Ask anyone from Wales who Mathew Pritchard is and they could probably tell you; From a daredevil stuntman with his own TV show, to a healthy fitness fanatic, Pritchard's done it all. But with the 15 year anniversary of Dirty Sanchez rapidly approaching, it’s time to reflect on the man who will only sleep when he’s dead.
