Quentin Kenihan (27 February 1975 – 6 October 2018) was an Australian disability advocate, writer and actor. He was born with osteogenesis imperfecta, a rare bone disease.

Kenihan was born in Box Hill, a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, in 1975 and first came to the attention of the public aged seven when he was the feature of a documentary by Australian journalist Mike Willesee. He later was the host of a Ten Network television show Quentin Crashes. In 2016, Kenihan participated in a lengthy television interview with Ray Martin.

He appeared in the 2015 film Mad Max: Fury Road in the role of Corpus Colossus. Kenihan died in Adelaide on 6 October 2018. His suspected cause of death was an asthma attack.

At the time of his death, Kenihan had nominated to stand as a councillor for the City of Adelaide elections on 9 November 2018. His name appeared on the ballot paper, but votes for him were not counted and were allocated to the next-preferenced candidate. The Quentin Kenihan Inclusive Playspace will be a disability-accessible playground built in his memory in Rymill Park.
