Viral Edit: I'd like to thank @seapotato for his undying support and @dantie for gracefully supplying me with whisky and her Irishness.

Not to derail anything, but where is the other kid (the one who plays Mike)
nickerification
Why is the actor for Mike never in any of these publicity interviews? I get that he's filming IT, but other actors always seem to make time.
thedeg
How do you even function without any collar bones?
SenorPeligro
You become very flexible to say the least. Not sure if I should recommend googling images of that condition tho.
leaderlesslurker
Dude, stop making the rest of us look like asses.
graehall
One cool bit of trivia, among many, is they searched through ~1200 actors to find the core group of kids which they cast. Fkn nailed it.
DonnaNobleHasLeftTheLibrary
He's so adorable-one of my friends is his teacher & she said he's just the sweetest kid. But he misses a lot of school because of the show
yuyufan43
I for one am happy he's around. He was my favorite character on the show and he has beautiful self awareness.
ISmellManFlesh
He's such a fucking sweet kid.
AlexTheBoundary
I guessing I should watch this already?
ADMIN1337
It's pretty good
Chillisqueaks
His entire public life is basically the equivalent of a video of puppys
Dabba21
I just fucking love this kid.
Jessy255
What an awesome kid.
truff2dashuff
He seems like a really good kid. I hope he doesn't succumb to childhood fame and become a crappy adult.

I have no idea who any of these people are.
ReturnoftheZombiePlagueApocalypse
Thank god. I thought I was the only one! No clue, whatsoever!
Huor
Is it just me, or does the girl seem like an unusually small 43-year-old?
TheSpeakerOfTheHouse
I read that as "smelly" and looked to see what you were talking about. Like dirty? Greasy?
totalwiener
Watch interviews with her, she's seriously well-spoken and smart. Like a tiny adult.
Huor
That's what I'm saying!
RoachBoner
I love that kid
steptotheright
I love this man. He is beautiful.
CardboardPizzas
Love you Duthtin!
TurdsOfWisdom
I just don't understand how they found the four best kids to ever have been born and got them all into one of the best shows around.

ImNotGayBut20BucksIs20Bucks
Gonna be 100% honest did not know this was a thing. So he made me aware of it
newsguycraigevans
Ditto
Spongybunny
There are over 7000+ rare diseases in the world (less than 200k ppl can have the disease in the US to make it rare). Hard to know it all.
WhoTheFuckisGavin
I'm a last year medicine student.. I have never heard of this.
rugmiem
Oh my... And you said is your last year?
IrishPub
Have you heard of boneitis?
WhoTheFuckisGavin
It's a sickness from 2999... Wait .. I'm not supposed to say that. I am not a time traveller!
Melendenator
Or crippling osteoporosis

ShadowRunner94
aRedditUserOriginallyCreatedImgurPrimarilyForReddit
Agreed, he made me aware of it, but that doesn't really change anything. I'm very much certain only SMALL percentage will now donate.
monochrony
the condition is very, very rare (like one in a million rare). so yea, it doesn't really change much.
dazzleship
There is a brilliant children's book called Wonder by Raquel Palacio that tells the tale of a boy dealing with Treacher Collins syndrome
SwiggityDiggitySwoo
awesome book - and not just for kids/teens
dazzleship
Not the same disease but also genetic and affecting the development of the face. Beautifully and heart wrenchingly told.
lizzely
Yes, that book was absolutely amazing, completely forgot about it! Have to read it again
ployerwan
Follow him on IG. It will make you smile. He's the sweetest person to everyone.
Clayman8
No collar bones...how... im unsure but wouldnt that affect the entire top of the body including the arms? Sounds fucked up :(
slugonion
I broke my collarbone 9 years ago, and it's still super uncomfortable. :/
eTrickyy
Makes you extra flexible
JupitersWitch
The bullies asked him to do the shoulder thing. That makes more sense now.
Maglot
https://youtu.be/AryaNH2zT58?t=16 There ya go!
TheLimpinBiscuit
While that is certainly bizarre, it begs the question, why do we even have collarbones in the first place?
TheNoblePizzaDragonWhoLivesInYourFridge
Well that's just some guHOLY SHIT
AliElkie
Don't google
austerealli
Aha, but you're too la- AHH WHAT THE
TheGreatAndMagnificentRoadcone
not as bad as i expected... lots of people touching their shoulders together tho.
IRejectYourRealityAndSubstituteMyOwn
He does that in the show.
Zimenzo
AliElkie
That's the bit that got me
kuraianubis
I can do that, and I have one...just flexible I guess.
SayIAmYou
Without collarbones the arms would only be held on by muscle, there'd be a lack of stability, prone to dislocation
kidwhixsuh
He probably got surgery to prevent dislocation or fake collarbones
fearisaluxury
Nope, he still doesn't have any. He can touch his shoulders together in front of his body. He did it on Stranger Things and Ridiculousness.
Greeneyeddevil
In the show he can do cool shit with his shoulders like pop them out but I think for other affected kids it can be more severe.
TheFamousNecromancerMrBones
Why is it that you only ever see these three in interviews and at events? Anyone know where the other two are?
AromaTaint
Not getting off my lawn.
tangowolf
We've organized a search party.
MissingLia
I just remembered they're at the library, I'll have them call when I see them.
Greeneyeddevil
Basically just other projects plus these 3 have been 'industry' kids much longer so probably have more flexible schooling
Isi151e
Where's Will?
JimStarluck
Ninety-nine out of a hundred times, kid goes missing, the kid is with a parent or relative.
rastadalek
Man, actually where is Will's brother Jonathan?? He's the person I grew up to be from that show.
gsdluvr
Fallon had all of them but Will.
totallyrealname
At school maybe?
kriskodisko
You can actually see Mike's hands in the second to last clip, on the far right.

Either he's fucking with us, or he doesn't know where this kid is from

k sorry for asking =_=

What show is it?
LarrWhy
I admire how candid and casual he is about it, like it's a no big deal big deal. What a badass
goawaypleasethankyou
They're all very well spoken, mature and talented for their age, it blows me away.
OSCgal
When you've dealt with something all your life, you tend to be cavalier about it. Like my brother w/ mild Goldenhar syndrome.
fr1080f
Why am I still ashamed of being fat then?
GuanYuThatsWho
Its something you know you can change/fix but with genetics conditions you just have to accept it
SabonVous
Well said
