When you hear the name Rob Dyrdek it's usually synonymous with crazy, hilarious and having one of the coolest office buildings ever.

Dyrdek got his television start with MTV on his show "Rob and Big" that chronicled everyday events in the life of Dyrdek and his bodyguard Christopher Boykin. Together the two displayed their humorous lifestyle and moments that don't occur in a normal persons life.

For Dyrdek it looks like he's always thinking about the next adventure and from "Rob and Big" blossomed "Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory." "Fantasy Factory" chronicled the everyday happenings of Dyrdek's life in his cool ass office building rigged with rails, stairs and ramps for you know, the "down time."

SLS has reached 4.5 billion global impressions an 5.5 million viewers domestically and dishes out $6.3 million in prize money offered in events according to RD statistics.

After fostering the growth of the sport of skateboarding with the SLS events, Dyrdek transcended the sport of skateboarding, became and entrepreneur and entered the world of television and as a result lives from what we can tell a pretty awesome life.

"In addition to his own ventures, some of the biggest corporations in the world, including Viacom, Kraft, Chevrolet, and Monster, now turn to Rob for his irreverent perspective on launching and growing brands in a fast-evolving media world," according to his about me section.

Success breeds more success and that is what these companies are looking at when they go to Dyrdek for advice.
