You know, his student as well.

And my brother was already out there in California and he had been nominated for the last detail and stuff.

And so I kind of realized, hey, you can actually do this stuff, you know, get paid for it.

And I went out there at 75 and, you know, just driven and got an agent after about a year.

Yeah, in college.

I wasn't serious about it in high school.

I was going to be a veterinarian.

That's what I wanted to be.

Really?

Yeah.

I was a vet's assistant up in East Texas.

I'd spent summers up in East Texas, you know, in Jacksonville, Frankston.

And...

I worked for a vet when I was 14, 15, and that's what I was going to do until one day we did like a house call out to this guy's farm to castrate his horse.

And the farmer didn't want to sit out there in the field and wait for him to wake up from a full anesthetic.

So they only gave him half of it and cinched his legs up like this.

And that horse stood up on two legs and it was just, man, it was horrific.

And that kind of, I think that's what changed my mind.

Maybe I should be an actor.

And I'll play a veterinarian.
