Cory "Nasty" Nastazio

From the second Cory Nastazio walks in the room, he sends off an unmistakable energy. 

He’s someone who makes you want to watch, as well as be a part of the circus that accompanies his life. He has had countless reality shows, been on TMZ, and has come back from so many life-threatening injuries that there’s no doubting his resilience. Today, he has a family, two kids and a radio talk show, but he still loves to ride his little-kid BMX bike.
