Access Interviews
Who is saying What, Why, When and Where

Headline:

I got no arms, got no legs, got no fingers, got no toes... but I got LIFE!

Synopsis:

WHEN Nick Vujicic was born without arms or legs, even his parents couldn't bare to look at him.

His own father left the hospital room to vomit and his distraught mother didn't hold him until he was four months old.

At aged ten he was suicidal - trying to drown himself in the bath.

But instead of giving up on life, brave Nick has now embraced them with the help of friends and family.

The 26-year-old from Melbourne, Australia enjoys everything other lads his age do - playing football, swimming, surfing. He's even won awards for his zest for life.

Although the majority of his body is torso, he has a small foot at the bottom of one hip which helps him in everyday life.

Determined Nick uses it to type, hold a pen to write and pick things up between his toes.
