Dean's parents had nothing to do with cinema. The head of the family owned a furniture store, and his wife was raising five children. Keeping an eye on the nimble offspring turned out to be a daunting task. A little son, playing football with his sisters, ran after a ball that rolled onto the road and ran into a police car. The severe injury resulted in lameness, which was never eliminated.

Later, the directors and screenwriters thought that a physical disability could become part of the character of Norris' characters in the series Breaking Bad and the thriller The Firm. The uninitiated viewers did not understand that the lameness was real.
