The iconic actor’s death actually helped launch the career of another legendary actor.
James Dean's two front teeth were fake.
He lost them in a trapeze accident (in his family's barn) and had to wear false ones for the rest of his life.
He was extremely near-sighted and could barely see without his glasses.

His favorite book was Antoine de Saint Exupéry's The Little Prince.
James briefly dated Liz Sheridan, who is best known for her role as Helen, Jerry’s mother on Seinfeld.
She wrote the book, Dizzy & Jimmy: My Life with James Dean: A Love Story, about their relationship.
