You know that I was a bouncer (bouncer, ed.), And a professional diver, and after that it took a long time before I had the feeling: here I am in my place. . “
The 52-year-old Waes is now successful as an actor and best known as Bob Lemmens in the Flemish-Dutch series Undercover. He owes his acting career to the Flemish director Tom Lenaerts. “He opened the door to the television for me.”

If someone in an interview again assumed that I was a macho and not that smart and unread, I always insisted on it. prove the contrary. I slowly got rid of that urge. “
