Two years after cracking an egg on the bald head of an Aussie politician who made anti-Muslim statements on the same day as the Christchurch mosque attacks, the teenager known as 'Egg Boy' is harnessing his fame to raise money for good causes. Seventeen years old at the time, Melbourne teenager Will Connolly was so outraged about the comments the next day he rode his bike to a planned appearance by the senator. Egg Boy is now helping raise money for New South Wales communities hit hard by last year's bush fires, none of which would be possible he says, if it were not for the egging.
