John Ferguson went viral in college after pulling off a prank from inside a washing machine - a video that hit 17 million views and kickstarted his content creation career. In this episode, John shares how that one moment changed everything, leading him to walk away from a future in finance to chase the chaos (and rewards) of full-time content.We also talk about what life was like growing up as a little person, from when he first realized he was different, to what his social life looked like, to some of the wild stats and realities that come with dwarfism - including his thoughts on drinking, obesity, and the odds of having a child with dwarfism. He opens up about his long-term goals, what he’d be doing if the internet hadn’t worked out, and yes… whether or not an OnlyFans is coming.If you're into viral stories, comedy, and hearing what it's like to truly embrace your uniqueness - this episode’s for you.Subscribe to our YouTube Channel - 👇https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEagMPZLRiNGlVVZmeJ6qew?sub_confirmation=1Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/hjrpodcast/ X - https://twitter.com/theHJRpodcast TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@hjrpodcast Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/hjrpodcastSpotify - spoti.fi/3QeYDwu Apple Podcasts - apple.co/3tKDFOy iHeartRadio - ihr.fm/475MroQ 00:00 Intro03:14 Start of Content Career06:39 Realizing his Potential in Content Creation08:05 Where he'd be today without Content10:20 Plans with Education in the Future14:07 When he realized he was different from others16:52 Social life growing up with dwarfism18:40 Drinking as a little person20:00 Childbirth odds for dwarfism#JohnFerguson #LittlePeople #Podcast
