Biography

Brent Collins was a dwarf who suffered from Marfan syndrome - the same disorder that made both President Abraham Lincoln and Russian Figure Skater Sergei Grinkov, elongated gangly giants amongst most other people. There are documented rare cases of individuals who suffer from Marfan syndrome suddenly over a period of a few weeks, suddenly growing from being a dwarf to being a giant, some suspect that might have happened to Collins in late 1987.
