Skateboarding: It's all in the arms. That may not sound right, but for Daniel Pelletier, a teenage skater who's paralyzed from the waist down, that's simply how it has to be. Through some ridiculous combination of crutches, coordination, arm strength and a whole lot of heart, Daniel manages to skate better than the vast majority of people who, you know, actually have full use of their legs. Here's his sponsor-me tape. Now that he's on the verge of internet celebrity, we're sure it's only a matter of seconds before the shoe companies come calling.

He might not be a paralyzed totally, but have limited mobility? Still, don't be a Debbie Downer, he's pretty good

He's not using his legs. He's using the crutches to move himself backwards and dropping his weight as a way of stomping on the tail. Observer carefully.
