Do you remember Ghyslain Raza? No? How about The Star Wars Kid? Yeah - oh yeah! That's Ghyslain Raza. He was mocked on YouTube by over 1 billion viewers, and was even parodied on Arrested Development, among other outlets, shows, and programs.
Raza dropped-out of highschool and checked into a psychiatric ward! He was diagnosed with depression. He and his parents sued the families of three classmates who had leaked the video for around $250,000. The suit was settled out of court.
Now, Raza is working toward a law degree at Montreal's McGill University and is the president of Patrimoine Trois-Rivieres, a society which aims to preserve the cultural heritage of his hometown.
