HOLY CARP!!!
The Paralympics start this weekend, and there was a story on the news last night about one of the alpine skiers.

So I watch this woman swooshing down the hill using only one pole, and I think, yeah must take some work to deal with the balance issues, having only one arm.

And then they tell us that she's also missing both her legs below the knees.
