Early life
Kurt Yaeger was born in San Francisco, California, United States (US), and was raised in South San Francisco. He currently resides in the Los Angeles area.
As a BMX rider, Yaeger gained the nickname "Crowbar" and acquired sponsors for his BMX riding, participating in tours and competing in events.Fudger, Ryan [http://bmx.transworld.net/1000111152/videos/kurt-yaeger-athlete "Kurt Yaeger – Athlete"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120327091507/http://bmx.transworld.net/1000111152/videos/kurt-yaeger-athlete/ |date=March 27, 2012 }}, Ride BMX Transworld, August 30, 2010. Retrieved August 7, 2011.
As an actor, Yaeger auditioned for a Nickelodeon/Clear Channel Communications live tour based on the popular cartoon show Rocket Power. What he thought to be an acting role turned out to be an athletic/stunt role. On the first day of rehearsals, the director found out that his BMX talent was at a professional level and incorporated it into the show. The show briefly toured the US Midwest in spring 2002 before being canceled due to low ticket sales. After experiencing many BMX-related injuries, he decided to go back to college to pursue a master's degree in hydrogeology. In 2006, while attending school in San Francisco, he was in a motorbike crash that resulted in multiple injuries.Vigil, Delfin [http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/11/15/DDO6143VO8.DTL "Actor brings a little extra to the job"], SF Gate, November 15, 2008.

=BMX sponsors=
When Yaeger initially began training again, Etnies signed up to sponsor him, supplying shoes that allowed for an expanded experimentation with a new magnetic pedal from ProTonLocks. After he figured out how to stay on the pedals, Solid Bikes and Odyssey helped him by supplying a new bike. The last obstacle was to figure out how to keep his knee from hyper-extending from the repeated impact pressures while riding. He turned to Ossur, who built him a CTi custom knee brace for his prosthetic leg. Other sponsors, including Freestyle Watches, Stüssy, Bern Helmets, Alpine Stars, Challenged Athletes Foundation, Fox Racing, ZICO Coconut Water and more, have all backed Yaeger.
Yaeger was one of the owners of ProTonLocks, Inc., a company that makes magnetic bicycle pedals.Ostegard, Jan [http://www.movievine.com/television/dream-role-with-kurt-yaeger/ "Dream Role with Kurt Yaeger"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029192013/http://www.movievine.com/television/dream-role-with-kurt-yaeger/ |date=October 29, 2013 }} MovieVine, April 18, 2013.
