In an interview on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, he said that he changed his name to Vin Diesel while working as a bouncer, because in that business one's real name is not usually given out. The name "Vin" is simply a shortened version of "Vincent". He received the nickname "Diesel" from his friends who said he ran off diesel, referring to his non-stop energy.

They're faking it. I don't have to name names, but know they either have attachments or full-on wigs."

Bald and Proud

If you can see skin, you're in...

It is common to experience what all bald men who lose hair go through: a personal journey from denial to acceptance, and ultimately to appreciation. The process can take weeks, months or years, but the experience is the same regardless of the amount of time it takes.

Mike Ubl, founder of Brotherhood of Bald People Worldwide, has a passion to use the wisdom he has gained through personal experience to inspire self-confidence and self-acceptance among the bald community, to change public perceptions of baldness, and to build a strong membership for the purpose of gaining influence and buying power in today's marketplace. (For more information on the goals and benefits of membership, click here. ).

Amazingly, some organizations actually view baldness as a "debilitating disease of the spirit." You won't find any of that nonsense on this site! What you will find is:

  • Interesting, relevant, one-of-a-kind articles filled with bald information, advice, encouragement and inspiration.
  • A V-Blog (video blog) containing entertaining and informative videos.
  • A bald forum to get your questions answered.
  • An online store filled with custom-designed, unique products for sale.
