Daniel Potts age

Damiel Potts played tarzan aged five but his info says he was born in 1970 which would make him 14 in 1984 so he must have been born in 1979/80 to make him five in 1984, however i can't put in a correction unless I have absolute proof he was born in 1980 not 1970 when the error is quite simply a typo, you can't have a 14 year old play a five year old.

so how do you get simple typos corrected on here

Daniel Potts was actually born in 1974, so he was around 9-10 years old, when they shoot the movie. Of course they couldn't takte a boy who is only five years old to play a role like this. As far as I know, Eric Langlois, who played the older Tarzan (I think Tarzan age 12) was 14 years old.
