This is Peng Shuilin, a 37 year old man from China. In 1995, he had an accident that almost took his life. A freight truck sliced his body in half and his lower body and legs were beyond repair.
However, the doctors managed to save him and Peng spent nearly two years in a hospital in southern China, undergoing a series of operations to re-route nearly
every major organ or system inside his body.
He kept exercising his arms and building up body strength, and has now learned to walk as well. A sophisticated egg cup-like casing was created to hold his body, with two bionic legs attached. He is currently trying to lead a normal life - he opened up his own business and wants to be an inspiration to other amputees.
So just remember, if you have a whole body, if you have legs to use, if you are healthy, you are okay. Everything will be okay. People survive horrible things and they manage to overcome them and to keep living. This man is not just an inspiration to amputees, but to everyone.
