All my family is average-sized, apart from me. I didn't really think about my size until I got older, a few years before high school. It had never really fazed me that much.

I've never been tall. So it's not like I was six-foot, got paralyzed, and now I'm in a wheelchair. It doesn't really faze me all that much.

If I walk up to a bar, they wont see that I'm standing there.

There aren't too many people like me.

We grew up Amish, but my parents left the religion when I was a child. The Amish have lots of rules, and my dad thought many people in the faith were hypocritical because they'd tell others not to do something and then do it themselves.

Me and Mike Myers had great chemistry between us.

People categorise people as being disabled, and it's basically whatever you put your mind to, you can do, and everybody that has limitations, they can still do anything they want as long as they set their mind to it.

I like a lot of different types of music.

I was a typical boy growing up, even though I wasn't particularly outgoing or chatty. I loved running around and playing football. My siblings and I are only a year apart in age, so we played together. Sometimes it was good being so close, sometimes it wasn't - like when they'd steal my candy and toys.

My parents taught me to be optimistic and independent. They made me feel that I could do anything I set my mind to, which has really helped me. They didn't make allowances for me because of my height. I had to do everything my brother and sister had to do, including raising our animal menagerie that included cows and chickens.
