A man who needs little introduction is Paul Teutal from Orange County Choppers. This week we learn how he literally built his business out of the ashes, spent years overcoming obstacles with alcohol abuse and how strong-bending steel really makes you. Many may wish for overnight success, but would you be ready to handle the consequence?
