Manchester United legend Denis Law has revealed that he fainted when learning the news that he has prostate cancer.
The 74-year old Scotsman was diagnosed with the illness after a recent biopsy and has since recalled the harrowing day when he found out.
Law said in a video for Movember's 'Living with Prostate Cancer' video: "We did have a biopsy, which wasn't very pleasant. He (the doctor) came round and said: 'Well... you've got cancer'.
"I think they thought I'd have a heart attack. As soon as he said it, I said: 'Oh, I don't feel well, I don't feel well'.
"I obviously conked out. I must have fainted. I was completely out. It's the Law family trait, we don't like hearing bad news ever!"
Law was a key part of Sir Matt Busby's United sides of the 1960s, helping the famous club win two titles as well as one FA Cup.
