Rob Dyrdek

Ro Dyrdek is an American professional       skateboarder, actor, and reality TV star. Rob was born in Kettering, Ohio in 1974. He started professional skateboarding at the age of 16 in 1991. His most popular shows on MTV are Rob & Big, Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory, and Ridiculousness. Rob & Big was a show that followed the lives of Rob and his best friend/security guard Christopher "Big Black" Boykin. This show is extremely funny and entertaining. in this series just to give you a couple examples of what these to hooligans cause they buy a miniature horse named Mini Horse, These two also buy a Bull dog named Meaty. they cause shenanigans with a net gun, make a song called Dirty Girl, and break world records. The fantasy Factory takes place after Big Black left to support his pregnant girlfriend. This takes place at his "Fantasy Factory" a building he bought and made into a big boys playground it includes a ramped foam pit you can skate into, a zip line, and a  basketball court. For the first three seasons the show followed Rob, his cousins Chris "Drama" Pfaff and Scot "Big Cat" Pfaff, and Chanel West Coast the rapping receptionist and all the shenanigans that followed with them. In the fourth season Big Black came back to the series. Rob's last TV series and most recent is Ridiculousness a show devoted to the viral videos that are on the Internet that are yeah you guessed it ridiculous. This is my favorite of the series every time i watch a episode i laugh so hard. Rob hosts as his friend Steelo Brim operates the videos, Chanel West Coast as a co-host. Rob has different guest stars on like Johnny Knoxville, Floyd Mayweather, The Dingo, and Ryan Dunn. Rob has performed various stunts for his different television shows he has jockeyed a horse, got mauled by a tiger,swam with a shark, and kick flipped a car over the world's largest skateboard something he helped create.

 This is a clip from Rob's show ridiculousness as you can see he is so funny.

Rob Dyrdek is not just fun and games either when it comes down to why he inspires so many he has a huge love for kids and skateboarding. He builds "safe spot skate spots" which are area that are built specifically for skaters so they don't have to skate at random places around the city they live in and get in trouble. this picture is between Rob and the mayor of Los Angeles cutting the ribbon to the new safe spot skate spot in L.A
