Quentin was a suburban Adelaide boy suffering brittle bone disease, when in 1983 he was interviewed by legendary journalist Mike Willesee.
From the age of seven, he became a household name in Australia and formed a strong friendship with Willesee over a series of stories.
Quentin later went on to become an author, filmmaker and film star, as well as loud advocate for people with disabilities.
In 2000, he carried the Paralympic torch down Oxford Street in Sydney for the Paralympic Games.
In 2015, he played the character of Corpus Collosus in the blockbuster Mad Max Fury Road.
Following the tragic news of his passing, tributes have flooded in for Quentin.
RIP Quentin.
