It was carried on the local Fort Lauderdale newspapers website this morning under 'Strange but True'...

But great find with the more info on the BBC news site....

I don't see what the big deal is... and the comment about urban legend??? Puhlease!

If i chopped off your arms right now, you'd be suprised at what you'd be doing with your feet 10 years from now. And this guy was BORN without arms! Animals and humans naturally adopt to their surroundings and personal situations. There's a video floating around about a dog that has no front legs so he hops around upright on his back two legs. It's freaky looking but pretty cool.

There's a guy who lives roughly in my neighborhood who is like that. (not the hopping around on hind legs like a dog....)

I've seen him walking around with a cell phone balanced on one shoulder and a cup of coffee in his teeth (or lips). He'll go along sipping from his coffee, tipping it up with his lips, and occasionally flip the cell phone over by shrugging one shoulder and rolling it with his neck. I've seen him shift the cell phone from one shoulder to the other as he was walking just by shrugging.

I don't want to think of how he dials the damned thing though.

I've also seen him walking back from a store with a package balanced on one shoulder, his cell phone on the other, and a big gulp in his teeth.

No arms must suck.
