Unlike most dwarves (70%) who have a condition called achondroplasia, Warwick's dwarfism is caused by an extremely rare genetic condition called spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia congenita. On being a little person, Warwick has said the only real drawback to being small was the associated health problems. Of his own dwarfism (SED), Warwick has said "As you get older, you can suffer from painful hips, and our joints wear a lot quicker than for people of average height."
