Nick Santonastasso was given a 30% chance of surviving birth.

Born with no legs and one arm, Nick was born with Hanhart Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder which either leaves the babies with undeveloped limbs or undeveloped organs.

Despite the hand he was dealt, here’s just a small teaser of what Nick has accomplished:

  • Decided to amputate part of his arm to become a wrestler and wrestled on the high school varsity team
  • Became a professional bodybuilder and won 3rd place in his first competition at the “Iron Bay Classic”
  • Toured with Tony Robbins on stage, impacting 1,000,000+ people
  • Inspired GIANTS in today’s world, including people like Ed Mylett and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

This is a story that you will NOT want to miss.

We not only dive into Nick’s incredible adventures, but unpack his mindset that has propelled him on his journey.

As Nick says, “The biggest DISABILITY you can have is a BAD MINDSET.”
