    He’s a regular on a show my ex watched called 90 day fiance. He pretty much tries to date women outside the U.S. exclusively, and unsuccessfully. I’m not entirely convinced that no-neck-ed isn’t a character written for the show with some fancy prosthetics

      It’s a birth defect - Big Ed Brown from 90 Day Fiancé has Klippel-Feil syndrome, which makes his body look different from others.

      I don’t watch it, but making fun of someone for his looks, which he can’t control, is a doozy, so I hope they laugh because of his antics and not his body. Would be kinda cheap otherwise.

        Isn’t that the definition of 90 Day Fiance?

          That too. The whole channel show is trash TV making fun of people doing incredibly stupid things

        Wait, I thought he mentioned it wasn’t a birth defect but an injury he got from sports or something
