  • This is the inspirational life story of Rob Brooks ‪@SoCaLove‬. Born with Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency (PFFD), he didn't allow this condition to stop him from pursuing his dreams. From basketball star to professional RUclips streamer, this is his story.
    ✦CREATED, FILMED, AND EDITED BY: HIGHVIS
    ✦EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: @socalove @ceasey0
    ✦Rob is a full-time streamer on RUclips and reached #3 all-time in big map wins in Call of Duty Warzone.
    ✦Rob is from Seal Beach, California. He was born with Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency (PFFD) - a rare birth defect resulting in one leg shorter than the other - and has a prosthetic leg. Rob was a basketball star in his youth, catching the attention of national news outlets and well-known people in the industry. He graduated The University of Southern California (USC) in 2007 with a Sociology degree and was a College Basketball Coach for 10 years. Rob began his streaming career in 2019 and formed the group known as DK (Door Kickers). He currently lives in Clearwater, Florida with his fiancée ‪@ceasey0‬ and four German Shepherd dogs. Rob is passionate about health and fitness and follows a rigorous routine of high intensity workouts, 20 hour daily fasts, and a high protein/low carb diet.

      He plays to win. Who cares about K/D, who cares about highlights. Only dubs matter and everything Rob does as a player and team leader is about winning the match. That's why I watch.

    Bloody brilliant. I had no idea and to be totally honest I've watched you for about 6 months and thought it was a slightly arrogant persona you had i know better now..... so this video has been great to actually give people a far better understanding about yourself. Bloody amazing 👏 well done guys.

    I wasn't aware about the entire story but knowing it now, the whole story is touching,
    my throat was chocking.
    You're a warrior, an inspiration.
    You overcome so many obstacles with your attitude & never gave up, I admire you so much for what & who you're.
    I tend to lurk your stream & you always make me laugh at any times, regardless if I'm in a bad mood or just just watching for fun.
    Sadly, I rarely get involved due to my limited English vocabulary, but your treatment/handling to your viewers are always respectful & humorous, fun and one of the reasons I was in love with your personnel as a streamer.
    I also love watching your teamwork alongside with Outlaw, Harley and others in warzone which makes it intense and fun to watch.
    Apologies if I mistyped her name but Jenna (cc as I know her from stream) is a true sweetheart and an A-N-G-E-L!
    Sending love for your friends & anyone who were part to overcome the rough times.
    Keep it up being amazing as you're!!!
    Apologies if there're any grammar mistakes.

    I honestly I was very moved I live with and struggle with rheumatoid arthritis. When I saw this show I was going through hell I wanted to give up the pain was too much. I haven't received any treatment for my rheumatoid arthritis until recently. For the first time in years my pain is at Bay and I have to start all over again to try to get back in shape. I'm in my 50s was athletic but there are days I feel like I can't do it because pain was a bit much, however your story has giving me hope. Hope that I can turn that drive back on get my life back in shape and press forward. Thank you for the hope I needed it

Hearing your testimony I can see so much of your father in your work ethic, drive, and toughness - all lessons he shared with his players and I can tell it carried over to you as well. Best of luck to you in your life and on your terms. May God bless you!
