I've tried to mark this for a speedy (first for being a test page, secondly for no assertion of notability), which has resulted in a scattershot series of claims turning up to assert notability. Google's never heard of the gentleman in relation to his film/TV credits, which is perhaps unsurprising since he was 11 at the time of Home Alone 2 coming out and I can only recall the one cute child star. I should also add that I checked IMDB as well as doing a standard Google. What Google does throw up, though, is a personal homepage which is under construction and not much else, which makes the descent claims more than just a little iffy, and likewise the "promising scientist" claim. In terms of the medal he apparently received, I couldn't find any evidence of that either, but I'd almost have to wonder whether that's sufficient notability given the number of people who've been honoured for their roles in the aftermath of 9/11.

 * Delete per WP:BIO. Non-notable graduate student. Claims to being an actor are not confirmed by the Internet Movie Database, in which he is not listed. Article admits that he was among "thousands" of people who helped 9/11 victims. --Metropolitan90 07:05, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:BIO. I've had a good go at verifying this and haven't been able to find anything substantial. OBM | blah blah blah 09:48, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete - As Patent Nonsense. There is no such thing as a "presidential honor medal" and the completely bogus claims made on the page combined with the creator's blatent disregard for policy (removing tags etc.) move this past the realm of hoax and into the realm of things that need to go bye bye ASAP. - b o b b y  16:05, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
