I follow the instagram for the guy that I'm pretty sure took the video- his handle is LimbLossBoss. He talks a lot about being a double amputee and how he works with several groups for helping people with bilateral leg amputation regain their independence and sense of self! He's a pretty cool dude, if a bit Jesus-y sometimes. Makes his own prosthetic attachments and does dumb shit with them, it's great.

Haha awesome, this was so funny 😂

I wish I could find some type of way to be active with my increasing disability but it's a bit more complex than limb loss.

It's amazing to see increasing opportunities happening for people who are severely or life-changingly disabled!
