Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off

Tony falls down a lot. Tony’s childhood was hard. Tony’s relationships were hard. Tony’s relationship with his severely disabled mother is hard. Getting to skate competitions was hard. Being booed was hard. Getting famous was hard. Getting rich was hard. Partying with the rich and famous was hard. Being addicted to prescription pain killers was hard. Being married four times was hard. Falling down and breaking many important bones was hard. Spinning 900 degrees in the air on a skateboard was hard. Getting older is hard. Tony’s life is HARD. Nope. No glamour or wealth at all. Nope. Just pain for Tony. Life was hard for Tony.
