That's even better than the guy who got his face blown off in Vietnam.

They call him art when he's hanging on the wall...

Skip when he's on water skis...

Stew when he's in the hot tub...

Russell in a pile of leaves...

Matt when he's on your doorstep...

When he's on top of the grill....Frank


Seriously though, that guy is pretty inspirational. I don't believe in god, but he certainly inspires me to get up if I fall down.

This reminds me of a woman whose arms were burned off when she was a child. She now does everything with her feet, including raising her children.

Bio
We all take many things for granted and easily lose perspective of what is really important in our lives. Nick Vujicic was born without arms or legs. He has had to learn to adapt to this, and has achieved the seemingly impossible. In recent years, he has learned to become independent and can now take care of all of his personal needs. He can do everything from brushing his teeth, combing his hair, clothing, taking care of personal hygiene and even shaving. He moves around the house by jumpin' around and, outside the house, he has an electric wheelchair. He loves to swim, fish and play soccer. Nick Vujicic graduated from college with a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Financial Planning and Accounting. He trades stock options in addition to brokering real estate.
I'd like to know how he plays soccer.
Stock options and real estate? Yikes. I wonder if he has a motivational speech for that.
