Kevin was injured in a 1981 grain elevator explosion in Corpus Christi, Texas. The catastrophic blast was considered by officials to be in one of the worst in South Texas history. Kevin was hurled 300 feet by the explosion onto a concrete parking lot. His body was broken over at the chest, his lungs were collapsed, and he had a fractured skull with massive internal and external injuries.

If he did survive, they felt he wouldn’t want to exist in the helpless future that was awaiting him. However, through courage, tenacity, and a will to live, he beat all the odds. Kevin has turned his personal tragedy into a successful career as a world and Paralympics champion, a motion picture and television actor, a popular inspirational and motivational speaker and a lifetime advocate of proper for nutrition, physical fitness, and fighting obesity. Through a massive grassroots campaign with his non-profit organization Fitness 4 All 50 State Tour, Kevin will push his wheelchair through key portions of all 50 states in this country. While doing this, Kevin will be sharing his inspirational life story, promoting physical fitness and sports participation to encourage people to set goals and take personal accountability and responsibility for setting long and short term goals for their education, fitness and making healthy lifestyle choices in schools, communities, and the workforce. This campaign is further supported with credible information, tools, and products presented on the website, www.Fitness4All50StateTour.com.
