Shane Burcaw (he/him) is the author of several award-winning books about disability. He is the President of a nonprofit organization called Laughing At My Nightmare, and a renowned public speaker who has performed across the country at places such as Harvard University, The University of Florida, The University of Connecticut, Princeton University, and many more.
Hannah Burcaw (she/her) graduated from Carleton College, where she studied Sociology and Anthropology. She films and edits the “Squirmy and Grubs” vlog, which has over 800,000 subscribers on TH-cam. Hannah has spoken at prestigious universities and Fortune 500 companies alike about the realities of ableism. On her popular Instagram account, she advocates for acceptance of all people and works to improve the way society thinks about disability.
Shane and Hannah have been together for over four years. They got married in September of 2020 in the midst of a global pandemic in their backyard, with their officiant conducting the ceremony via Zoom. Their interabled relationship often confuses people, because much of society still cannot fathom people with disabilities being involved in loving, intimate relationships. Anyone who watches these episodes will quickly see their relationship is just as “normal” as any other. Sure, Hannah helps Shane use the bathroom and brush his teeth, but those activities do not detract from the emotional, intellectual, and physical connection they experience together.

Shane's countdown is perfection.
Yes it was!!!!
That was the best part of the video!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Shane the lightning whisperer 😎
Shane has a side job as he god of thunder!
Many things make me cry, these days. Shane’s count down, being one of them.
Hi Shane, just want to say that I've been following you since your Tumblr days and I'm just really happy to see you so successful and in a loving marriage. Hope you and Hannah are well ❤
Hannah, I love how you handle everything with dignity and grace. Way to go Mom for raising such a classy woman.
I feel as though we will look back years from now on how airlines would make people get out of their wheelchairs to board a plane and be shocked as to how that even happened.
It seems absurd to me that there isn’t better access to bring wheelchairs on a plane. Even our county buses have a way to secure the biggest chairs. I wonder if there’s a technical reason, like if it’s unsafe to have a wide door, something that I don’t understand because I still don’t grasp how planes stay in the air 🤣
I am shocked now. I hope it doesn't take years. They need to fix this asap. People in wheelchairs should not be put thru that. I of course don't blame the employees. It's the rules and regulations of the airlines that need to change. I pray it does. Some people would be totally screwed if their wheelchair got broken, because some don't have the funds to get a new one right away. I hope the airline compensated them for the chair, since they broke it. Shane's chairs are like $500+
I certainly hope so. This is so necessary and l can't believe it hasn't happened yet
Right!? I can’t imagine it would be impossible to make 1-2 rows with removable seats that have latches to lock a wheelchair in
@@tyffaneelavely8087 whoa whoa! It’s on the staff to move equipment safely when storing under the plane. Equipment doesn’t just break by itself.
Shane's count down was awesome 👍
I love when Liz is part of the videos. She’s awesome 🙂
I second that!
I always look forward to seeing Liz play a cameo role on the videos. She adds a lot. Love her!!
Your story made it on the Today Show! Sorry you had to go through that, but hopefully it leads to change across the travel industry
Whaaat. Ahh that’s so great! Hopefully some change to come. 😩
Delta has gotten a lot of heat lately bc of broken chairs. My friend who’s on social media also had hers completely rendered useless for her. Her story went viral and she is still fighting to help others who this happens to.
I hope this goes viral so maybe it could force change of procedures on all airlines as to letting wheelchairs on flights.
0:14 - Shane! You were told not to show off your powers to the humans! Keep this up and you will be recalled to the homeworld.
Shane aka Thor!
🤭🤣
That countdown was perfectly timed, congratulations Shane. Roll on the day when wheelchair users can travel in their wheelchairs when flying. They should be able to travel in comfort, the same as every other person. This Vlog highlights the difficulties wheelchair user’s face daily. Thanks Shane, Hannah and Liz xxx ❤️❤️❤️
The only people that are comfortable on an airplane are in first class.
As an able bodied person you just don’t realise and appreciate how easy it is for me to travel and what disabled people have to go through to do the same. Thank you for sharing your lives and raising awareness. And the countdown Shane was awesome 🤩 x
I enjoy your post. Take care of each other. I am a social worker, worked with disabled individuals for 31 yr, I enjoy watching you two interact
Your story popped up on my Facebook news feed today. Glad your story is getting the attention it deserves. Things need to change.
That countdown! What a wonderful time had by all. Safe travels everyone!
Shane's Angels were like "Let's help him impress the Ladies!". ⚡⚡⚡⚡
I love 444
Hannah’s mom is literally mom and mom in law goals!! ❤️❤️
Hello how are you doing 😊👋👋😊👋👋😊
You guys have the best attitude. I’m so sorry that you had this terrible experience.
Hi again H&S
Always that special positive attitude no matter cause you always find a way over under around or through!! Happy you're able to get out and do your speeches etc. Must feel really good! You both help alot of people and hopefully someday us more challenged folks can ride their own chairs when they travel. Thx as always for all you share...
My husband and I have figured out how to travel with a backpack and carryon all over the world. We are in our 70's. But any challenge we may have does not even compete with what you have to manage on what should be a simple trip. I so admire your determination and tenacity.
So happy you guys finally got settled into your rooms. I have a Toyota Sienna and have driven one since 2007. My favorite vehicle ever! Safe travels!
I've followed four page for awhile. You guys make me smile and crack up even into he worst of days!
I'm so glad your chair is working! We still have a ways to go to allow full accessibility on flights.
Kudos to picture-in-picture interpreting for accessibility for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing!
Happy Summer!
So happy everything went well💕
Nice catch of lightning bolt!!!
Hello how are you doing 😊😊👋😊☺️👋👋
I LOVE HOW YOU ALL WERE SO CALM EVEN WITH PROBLEMS ........GREAT EXAMPLE
It is very impressive. I freak out at such minor things in comparison.
Love how with all the mishaps you both are still positive about it
U have such a positive attitude about the whole situation with your chair, I need to work on being more positive when things go wrong. Love it.
True, however keep in mind they’re unlikely to publish anything of a negative attitude 🤷🏻♀️ they’re human after all and it would be understandable to feel frustrated or whatever. Keeping it real …
It would be very difficult to maintain a positive spin on everything in challenging and potentially dangerous situations. Have to be realistic as well
Me too
Glad to see everything went smoothly after and you had a wonderful time!
Impressive countdown! Glad you got safely back and all is right with the world as Shane said at the end.
So nice to see you all traveling again!!! Sorry about the wheel chair incident!!! Be safe out there.
Congrats on your first speech of the year. Now that things are opening up, you will probably have many more offers. Wow your breakfasts looked amazing. Take care guys, so happy to see Hannah's Mom still helping. Your the best Mom 🌿🌷👍
I'm so happy to see you guys are traveling again!!
I absolutely love your mission and love that The Family Cafe honored y’all!!! 🥰🥰
I just pray every time they all go on any trip that they enjoy life and keep going anywhere they choose. Enjoy life while u r young. N god bless ur Mother🥰
That was an impressive countdown Shane! Really awesome!
I discovered your channel a few days ago and haven’t been able to do anything but watch video after video since. My husband and I are in love with you guys. Shane is not only handsome he’s hilarious and I understand why Hannah is so crazy about him. My husband thinks Hannah is a supermodel and he loves Shane’s sense of humor. Please keep posting, we are hooked!!!! ❤️
Brilliant to see this. Thanks for sharing.
Shane,your countdown was spot on.
Happy that your trip and speech went well and that all is well
Hugs to you all🤗🤗🤗❤❤❤
Shane’s count down it perfect!
Thank you for sharing! Love you both💕
Yall are the most patient people i know of.
I'm glad everything else went smoothly ❤
I’m so proud of you both!
I’m happy u are both safe!
I too live in MN. It’s so cool to know you call MN home 💞💕💞
I live in MN too.
I stayed at that hotel for a conference and was amazed with how gorgeous it was. The pool, the in-mirror TV, just everything.
Love to you guys!!♡♡
Going through a rough time, and your videos cheer me!♡
It would be nice if the airlines took out a seat and configured the floor to lock in a wheelchair.
Airlines don't design the planes. Companies like Boeing do.
They could still have ability to adapt them
theyre popular and energetic enough to pull lawmakers and make some change
It would be nice indeed (I am a wheelchair user). Sadly, it will likely never happen. Airplanes are fundamentally different from trains and buses (which have done this by the way). The passenger cabin is designed for maximum survival during an extremely high impact event. Unfortunately, there are no restraints made that would hold a wheelchair and its occupant during such an event (crash). Having a 500 pound wheelchair+occupant hurtling through the air after a crash is the nightmare scenario they are trying to avoid.
Your Over There ... why do who travel? Disabled people, people in wheelchairs?
You don't think for one moment that things were preplanned, they didn't just turn up and expect the airline to accommodate!
Love Gators, hate Crocs!😅 Thank you so much for the laugh and the accent! I don't get to leave my house very often so, I really appreciate you taking us along on your trips. Sincerely, Carly 💞
Thank you for visiting my state. Glad you had picture perfect weather!
Aww you was here in Orlando. Glad you enjoyed our City Beautiful.
Glad you guys made it ok and still had a good time.
Back in 1991, Ed Roberts, (1939-1995) the founder of Independent Living and the World Institute on Disability (1983), the first global disability rights organization he tried flying in to Pierre, SD the state capital he was the speaker for a Parent Advocacy training I attended. Unfortunately there was no wheelchair access at that time so he had to fly into Rapid City than have a three hour ride to the capital. This was before the American Disability Act became law. Ed Roberts lived a great life. I would highly recommend doing a search online to learn more about his accomplishments and why living with a disABILITY is so much easier today thanks to people like Ed Roberts! We often forget that before 1974 (only 47 years ago) children living with a disABILITY DIDN’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE PUBLIC EDUCATION!
Perfect countdown Shane!!!!😎
So happy the rest of your trip went well. Lucky Liz, hanging out by the pool!
Thanks for sharing. Stay safe & well❣️
Shane makes me laugh out loud I just love watching
I was so frustrated for you guys last video!! I had a whole conversation with my mum about it (I ranted about it at her)
Thanks for the Videos love watching them!
Hearing Hannah say “nope” to Shane will never get old
It’s great when you get people that want to help
I wish we could hear y’all make a speech. It looked like fun.💖
Love the channel guys
The lightning count down was great!
Ok, you give me hope on several levels. After 5yr journey trying to figure why I have progressive weakness, crushing fatigue, loss of balance and getting 2 rare disease diagnosis I though no one could ever care about me... did a good job of pushing everyone away. My identity was strong, active,going everywhere til 58 it started rapidly crumbling,felt like I had failed when docs dorked around. When needed bipap and oxygen at night , wheelchair for any distance and was told expect progression to continue I resolved myself to never traveling again. How could I ? Seeing you tells me even if not likely is remotely possible. Occurs to me they need to have POD system to ship WC in, could put all associated luggage in with chair, lock it up, roll it on and off. I usually think outside the box but this time think the box is the key. Glad mom was able to help.
Count down was epic !! Glad your drive was better then your flight !!
You guys made the news. It’s sad that this happened and happens to chairs often. I’m an OT and I also see people just think that any old w/c will work.
They made the news there?
I agree. I don't know why the population think that wheelchairs are like shoes and that the average person can fit into the average wheelchair. There is no such thing as an average wheelchair or wheelchair user. As you know as an OT, every single component of a wheelchair is designed specifically to suit each individual need of a person. One can't just jump into another chair if even something as seemingly insignificant as the height of a wheelchair back is out by a couple of centimetres.

What news channel
I really ADORE your family!
Hugs xo
Fast turn around...
Thank GOD all went well on the return trip & Safe Journeys...✈
GBY ALL 🙏❤💙💖🤗✝️
Awesome video. Love from Canada!! Hi Liz!
You guys are incredible. Know that for every negative comment, there are 100 positive comments from lurkers like me. Much love to you guys
the countdown in the beginning proves that shane is indeed a alien like species and is far more wise than the rest of society.
That countdown was awesome! Glad y’all made it there and back safely but I hate that y’all had the trouble with the wheelchair! I would love to see one of y’all’s speech’s! 💜💜
Love your videos. Thank you.
Great video guys.
I love Liz so much, she is so wonderful! 🤗
Hannah’s “Nope”’s always get me 😆
Hysterical countdown!!!
Hey Shane and Hanna! As somebody from the Central Florida area. What you where seeing in the distance was Disney World, Epcot, and all the other parks and Hotels. Which to be honest is probably way bigger then Downtown Orlando. Like Most of Florida. The counties are huge and usually have a couple cities in each county. Anyways just an F.y.i! Glad you enjoyed your time here. 😊
I just love you guys!!
Hello how are you doing 😊👋👋😊👋👋😊👋
I'm glad everything worked out in the end :)
Glad you had a safe trip home💚💙🌸
I’m a bit jealous. I stayed at “The Hyatt” for a week while I was in Florida a few week ago. My hotel was nothing like this!! I mean WOW!! Beautiful place where you stayed. I’m glad you had a good experience :)
Welcome 🏡
Orlando, Florida is my home. I just want to tell you welcome to Florida. Nice to see that you went to visit
I would love to see some more of his talks 🙂
I liked the way it lightened just as Shane said one. I sometimes wish we could get Baseball in the UK. but it would probably be on in the middle of the night stay safe
Just booked a night in this same hotel - thanks for the sneak peek!
Wish I knew you guys were coming to Orlando. Would have love to come meet you guys.
Love your channel.
hugs from pam and john we love you all keep it coming
When I see Hanaah I feel there still hope in people I like that she is kind
Shane you are a trip brother.
