In a recent interview with PopEater, Dan, a fire-spinning flow artist, had wonderful things to say about his look-alike actor brother.

"It's wonderful to be mistaken for him. He taught me to question the relationships other people have with their siblings because he would be my favorite person in the world even if I wasn't lucky enough to know him as my brother," Dan said. "He's just awesome in every way that I pay attention to. I ask myself,  'Do I love him because he's my brother or is he really that awesome?' He's really, really awesome."
