Daniel Radcliffe Suffers from Dyspraxia

Daniel Radcliffe aka Harry Potter suffers from dyspraxia, a disorder that makes you all clumsy because it messes up your coordination. Luckily for Dan, his dyspraxia is mild so it doesn’t make him too clumsy. He still has issues tying his shoe laces, though.

Obviously, despite suffering from dyspraxia, Daniel Radcliffe is one of the best paid male actors and he’s only 19 year old. I don’t think he needs to worry about being clumsy. According to Dr. David Younger, New York’s leading neurologist and expert on dyspraxia, Daniel’s condition doesn’t affect his acting at all. Dr. Younger told Daily Mail that he was surprised to learn Dan suffered from dyspraxia, as you can’t see any signs of it from watching him in a movie.

I’m a big fan of Harry Potter, can’t wait till The Half Blood Prince is released :)
