St Elmo facts
While investigating facts about St Elmo, I found out little known, but curios details like:
The song St Elmo's Fire commemorates the feats of Canadian wheelchair athlete and philanthropist Rick Hansen who wheeled himself across Canada and 34 other countries to raise awareness of the potential of people with disabilities
John Parr wrote the song "St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)" to promote Canadian athlete Rick Hansen's "Man in Motion" wheelchair world tour. The phrase "St. Elmo's Fire" was tacked on so it would vaguely fit the movie. He later re-recorded some lines to make a "Tim Tebow's Fire" version.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 6 of the best facts about St Elmo I managed to collect.
