It states that Jason was born in California, which is not true. It says so in his Biography. He was born in Pisa, Italy on May 16th 1973. |
|||
Hello fellow Wikipedians, |
|||
:Yes I have noticed that. Why has it been changed to California? The article I have has it marked as Pisa, Italy. [[User:Mosdefau2|Mosdefau2]] 13:39, 7 January 2007 (UTC) |

I have just added archive links to {{plural:2|one external link|2 external links}} on [[Jason Acuña]].

I just recently watched all the episodes of Jackass as well as the movie and I can't find any footage of Wee Man carrying Preston Lacy. Can anyone verify this footage? |
|||
{{sourcecheck|checked=true}} |

::I've seen just about everything, too, but I do not recall Jason lifting Preston. Jason did give Shaquille O'Neal a somewhat ackward piggy-back ride with ease, though. This was during some footage from a Shaq music video or something, on MTV. It may have also been included in some Jackass episodes. I just wasted two minutes of my life discussing Wee-Man's strength.

:Agreed, I changed it to "a midget". In contrast, imagine someone who is tall being called "vertically gifted" or the like. Gimme me a break. [[User:84.161.75.153|84.161.75.153]] 17:00, 27 May 2006 (UTC) |

Hello fellow Wikipedians, |
|||
:How about "Horizontally Empowered"? |
|||
I have just modified 2 external links on [[Jason Acuña]]. Please take a moment to review [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=776214931 my edit]. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit [[User:Cyberpower678/FaQs#InternetArchiveBot|this simple FaQ]] for additional information. I made the following changes: |
|||
The term "midget" is now considered derogatory. The correct term is "little person", people with some specific medical conditions can be called "dwarfs". Not all little people are dwarfs, but Acuna's specific medical condition does mean he can be called a dwarf. Nobody really says "vertically challenged", that's just a joke. There are no organizations fighting for the rights of the "vertically challenged", but there does exist an organization called "Little People of America". |

He's not though, is he? The article states he's of Mexican(Spanish?)/German ancestry.[[Special:Contributions/68.235.36.115|68.235.36.115]] ([[User talk:68.235.36.115|talk]]) 00:28, 24 May 2017 (UTC) |

I don't remember him being involved. There was a 'midget wrestler' named Short Sleeve Sampson but he is a different person altogether. |

Jason Acuna also known as Wee Man sold his Malibu house last year and decided to consolidate and move everything into a home on wheels. This 4x4 Mercedes Sprinter 144’ wheel base van was on the market in Arkansas and already converted until he flew out and bought it within a couple days of discovering. Wee Man lives full time in the van and has everything you would ever need in house; A stainless steel shower with toilette, electric stove, sink, jack knife bed, fridge, AC and heater unit all running off solar power. The ability to “wake n skate” wherever he chooses is the ultimate dream of any skater and is perfect for his traveling lifestyle. We met up in Long beach to get a tour of his van, go skating and after we had some beers and brats at Joe Jost’s. |

Death Rumors |

There have been rumors about his death circling around, primarily on the Internet, some reporting he died from trying to headbutt a bowling ball, others claiming that he died from eating a whole kilo of salt or kicking himself in the head repeatedly. These rumors are not true. As of July 28th 2010, when this article was last edited, he's still alive. |
