Tamanna Naseer New Delhi
Eric Paul was always obsessed with cars. As a child, he insisted that his parents buy one and when they did, he slept in it the first night they brought it home.
 
His was no childhood obsession. Such has been his passion for cars that even after a car accident left him paralysed chest down at the age of 24, he fought both the disability and a serious bout of depression to create two world records — in his specially modified car.
 
One could say Paul, now 29, literally drove his way to the Limca Book of Records.
