Nick Vujicic (born 1982) is a preacher and speaker from Australia. Born with the syndrome tetra-melia, a rare genetic condition characterized by the absence of all 4 extremities (hands and feet). As a child, he suffered emotionally, psychologically and spiritually as well on a physical level, but eventually he faced his disability and at the age of seventeen he started his own non-profit organization called "Life without limbs."

Vujicic speaks to large audiences in inspirational speeches around the world living with disabilities, about hope and how to find the significance of life. He also speaks about his belief that the power of faith in God combined with the desire of every man to change his life is enough to overcome every problem in life or any disability.

His disability prevented him from attending regular school at the beginning, though was sane, but once the law changed he was among the first students who attended regular school. At school his derision of the other students was great and it had created to him great depression which lead him into several attempts to put an end to his life at the age of eight. At the age of 10 he attempted suicide again, but the love of his parents prevented him to do so. Eventually with much faith and pray, he realized that his accomplishments could inspire others, thus became grateful for his life.

An event that changed him was when his mother showed him an article in a newspaper about universal disability. There he realized that he was not the only one struggling in life and began to accept his disability.

He started to do with perseverance and patience various jobs as a day, writing using his two toes, make use of the computer and typing, throwing balls of tennis, playing golf drums, drinking a glass of water alone, combing, brushing teeth, answering the phone and shave, even swim!

In the second school he was chosen president of the class and worked with the school in order to find money for local charities and disability campaigns. When he was 17 he began talking in the prayer group, and eventually started his own non-profit organization "Life without limbs".

In 2005 he was nominated for the award "Young Australian of the Year." Many organizations are now helping him to raise money for him and his organization and help people with disabilities.

He finished university with honours at the age of 21 and with degrees in accounting and financial planning. He is one of the most influential speakers worldwide, travelling around the globe and helping people with disabilities and ordinary people to help them deal with their problems. He has spoken to more than 3 million people in 24 countries on all continents and also speaks passionately about the live and experiences he has lived.
