Biography
Biography
Murphy was born in Boston, Massachusetts. Murphy was a quadriplegic as the result of a diving accident that took place at Martha's Vineyard on August 8, 1974. His friend and director, Peter Farrelly, was with him at the accident. Murphy criticized Farrelly for not including disabled people in his movie Dumb & Dumber. This led to Murphy's first movie role in Farrelly's comedy movie Kingpin. Murphy died in Florida from cancer, aged 58, on August 8, 2014, exactly 40 years after his catastrophic accident.
