    Gary is such a sweetheart. Since hearing his story, my outlook on life has changed as well. I truly adore him and the world is a much better place with him in it, regardless of what some may say.

      Broke my neck In a car wreck 2 years ago. Tear drop fracture on my c-4 got a titanium cage on my c3, c4 and c5 now. Split my left femur in 2 like a twig. And shattered my left ankle. There was no air bag when my side of the vehicle hit the tree. If it wasn't for seatbelts I wouldn't be alive. Thank God. I shouldn't be here right now. I could've hurt my family so bad. :/ I got a 2nd chance

    If find it interesting that his right eye is a good half inch higher than his left eye now.
    When they show the younger picture of him, his eyes appear even in height.
    Which makes almost comical when he says I have a different way of looking at things now.

    This is why we call them murdercycles. I lost a good friend & mentor in a motorcycle crash. If you're gonna ride one of these dangerous things, the LEAST you can do is wear a damn helmet. It really should be the law since we're all required to wear seat belts.

    He was a great actor. Great in drama and in comedy. I don't mean forced/scripted humor like Ryan Reynolds does , I mean actually really great in comedy....

      Ryan Reynolds is genuinely funny though. But he's an actor so of course he's going to be having scripts? What is wrong with writing a joke?

    In footage from a year after the incident, his face still looks a lot more symmetrical, and his eyes are at a similar height. Did he have a stroke or something in the meantime?

    He said in his interview 1 year after the accident that he hit sand, fishtailed and hit the REAR brake. Now he says he hit the FRONT brake.
