David Lyddon

  • Actor
IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
David Lyddon was born in west London back on a November day in 1971. He grew up in the town of Hatfield in Hertfordshire up until 1987 where he moved to the town of Redditch in the west Midlands.

Was a bit of a late starter in the realms of acting but has always been a burning ambition of his since the age of 6. Life does not always take you down the path that you'd like as he has worked in many jobs ranging from butcher, factory worker, software teacher, DJ and even a bouncer at the local bars and clubs.

Back in 2005 David was driving to warped where he had a near fatal car crash. The accident was so severe that he was airlifted to Oxford to under go emergency surgery in which he was left in an induced coma for 8 days. This was due to the near fatal brain injury and multiple fractures.

David was very luck to survive this accident which police calculated happened at 90mph. David made a full recovery although has a few scars to remind him of what happened.

This was the turning point on his life and realized, why waste his life doing a job that he hates and found very soul destroying when, he could be doing something that he loves as we only get one shot at this life so, don't waste it.

He wants to look back on his life with no regrets or thinking, what if? So do it now while you still can.
