I think Splash made people realize that I was still alive, and I think I inspired a lot of people. I have people coming up to me all the time in the airport saying, "Hey, you inspired me to learn how to swim!" "You inspired me to start moving around more. " "You inspired me to start doing more for myself. " So that was good. But mostly I took it because nobody had given me a job. And you know what really matters in life, right?
Everything they told me as a kid has already been disproved by the same type of “experts” who made them up in the first place.
