Vin Diesel | Before They Were Famous | Why He Did This For The Family...

Let’s face it – with his shaved head, muscular build, deep voice,
and appealing charm, Vin Diesel is a true Hollywood Star – but what
you might not realize is just how much of a self-made-man Vin
really is. Vin grew up in New York City at the far edge of
Manhattan’s Greenwich Village in what they used to call “Artists’
housing”. Basically, it was a space where relatively poor artists
and their families could find an affordable place to live. But even
back then – in the earliest days of his youth – throughout his
struggles with an absentee father, getting himself into hundreds of
fist-fights, and regular attempts at vandalism, Vin knew that his
future was set in stone. Well, if you’re watching this video, I
think you already know how that turned out for him -- but for those
of you who don’t know the ins and outs of Vin’s remarkable story,
you’re about to learn all you ever wanted to know and more in our
newest episode of Before They Were Famous!
