Pele is actually only a nick name for the football player Edison Arantes do Nascimento who was born on 23rd October 1940.

Hailed as one of the greatest footballers ever known, Pele is the only footballer to be part of three World Cup winning teams.

Philosophical about his fame, Pele tells us "I've come to accept that the life of a frontrunner is a hard one, that he will suffer more injuries than most men and that many of these injuries will not be accidental."
