Despite being born without legs, Kanya Sesser lives life to the absolute extreme. Born in Thailand, Kanya was found at the side of the road aged just three months before being adopted aged 5 by a family in the USA, where she grew up with an active lifestyle that continues today. Kanya started skateboarding aged 9 and quickly became a highly-skilled skater able to do handstands on her board. Kanya is also a fashion model and a talented actress, having appeared in shows like The Walking Dead and Hawaii Five-0, and today lives in Texas with her boyfriend Jeff.

In a sea of social media lemons, this woman is the real deal. Intelligent. Articulate. Zero self-pity. Positive Energy. And Beautiful.
Awesome on the inside and a knockout on the outside. What an amazing person.
Don't ever call yourself half of anything, you are a full woman inside and out. That beautiful smile, keep it up, you inspire.

I agree! She’s so full of life and beauty! She’s a WHOLE woman!

She's living proof that if you're surrounded by love you can overcome anything.
Tons of respect for this beautiful young lady. She ROCKS 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Salute to Mom who raised you like angel. You are strong enough and example as a strong girl for many. Stay blessed Live strong 💪 Love from India 🇮🇳 Jai Hind
Your parents really left you oh my god they could have done better if not they could have just gave you up for adoption
She found her second mom, her aunties & uncles. I don't agree with leaving a baby on the side of the road, but I do believe God has a plan.❤
"Living well is the best revenge". That's so true.
I Agree With You 👍💯.
Yeah, I am definitely going to remember that.
videos like this restore my faith in humanity. getting caught up in all the negativity online and sometimes forget how amazing and loving people can be. all the people that cared for this young girl created a really cool person. she skates? say no more.
i cant imagine someone saying negative or hateful to u. UR AMAZING!!! when i see someone like u, it helps me to stay positive even when everything is going wrong. keep doing what you are doing. ur an inspiration to everyone!
Adopted mom did a wonderful job raising a strong, beautiful, confident woman! Bravo!!
Totally 100%...

She's all woman!

Adopted mom is an amazing person and so is this young lady
her mom won mother of the century and Kanya's attitude towards life and herself is absolutely beautiful.
I was born with cerebral palsy and I was told I wasn’t going to be able to walk or talk keep going and never give up ❤️❤️❤️
Lol
Beatriz22 what is wrong with you i am a 13 year old girl and my 3 year old brother has down sindrome and he can't walk , talk or even crawl and he is the best thing that ever happened to me , people don't know how hard life is with someone who has a disability but it is also one of the most rewarding things . so before you go saying stupid and foolish things actually think about what you say and the effect it has on people because you might have a child with a disability one day and you know what this is going to come back one day and bite you in your backside . GET A LIFE 😡

Well are you able to walk or talk? 🤷🏾♂️
I am serious i dont even notice her disability. She seems to have more abilities than non-disabled people i know. Shes gorgeous, strong and really inspiring. I cant see anything holding this woman back!
@@guineapigtalks Not that I ever have, or would, say that to anyone, but I am grateful to you for explaining how patronising that could be. My colleague has never been able to see. She lives a fuller life than probably anyone I've ever known, but i frequently witness people saying stupid, patronising things to her. This seems to bother me more than her! The RNIB's slogan is "See differently". The possibilities then are limitless for us all. Thanks again.
If your friend isn’t bothered then you shouldn’t try to speak for her.
@@melodybaby9398 I don't, and I didn't say I did, and actually she's my colleague - you'd know those facts if you'd bothered to read my reply properly.
Her legs
Same. I didn’t see her as a disabled person at all. She is way more able to do lot of things by herself than others who got two legs and two hands.
I love her confidence.. what a beautiful girl and beautiful story.. if only everyone had her confidence… how encouraging her story is. ❤
She is gorgeous! I'm glad she was adopted by a good woman. This is such a good story.
Wow! I’m amazed. She was dumped on the side of the road, has no legs and is still so confident and positive. Talk about resiliency! Amazing.
So stoked I get to share my life with you!! Btw, for everyone in the comments saying "oh girl, you're not a half woman, you're a whole woman!" She was making a joke. She didn't mean it metaphorically or anything like that.
She's amazing! So cool watching her on the skateboard. I'm glad you guys have each other to spend life with and have fun!🤘😁
คุณรเป็นคนไทยใช่ไหม
I knew it was a joke her sense of humour is like mine! Haha I laughed when she just said I'm no legs
@@infinitygoo5609 He doesn't look Thai to me.
We get it 😊
My 4 year old granddaughter was absolutely amazing watching this video, I show her videos like this because I don't want her to ever forget how lucky she is and to always be considered thoughtful and respectful as she travels her road of life. Bella asked me "nanny this lady is beautiful look at her beautiful eyes nanny!! Then she added nanny I'd give this lady 1 of my legs when I'm all grown up. Let's hope my granddaughter will continue to be a thoughtful considered and selfless girl bless her.
For the past year I have really been struggling mentally and emotionally after my vision was permanently damaged by botched Lasik surgery. Watching this inspires me to try and focus on what I can still do that I enjoy rather than dwell on what I can no longer do. Thank you Kanya for sharing your can-do attitude!
How are you doing, a year on? x
Sorry this happened to you 😔
She's so beautiful! and her confidence just makes her even more beautiful!!
U are a special girl. Born special and others can't do what u do today although born normal. Be grateful u don't have this but God give all especially beauty and talent. Keep it up. I salute u and pray that u have good Future
BRAVO 🌟👌👏👏❤🏅🌈🥀
I 100% agree.
Living your life to the fullest regardless of your condition is the BEST REVENGE. Who cares what other people think. You do you and just be happy.
I can't imagine what it's like growing up knowing that you were abandoned. The disability is one thing and she seems to have come out it very strong and in control of her own destiny. I think I would be devasted knowing that nobody wanted me. Everybody deserves love!
Adopted mom was a herous and she only tried to help you and she was like angel. Be happy my friend and nobody is perfect. God bless you
I don't feel sad, I feel happiness and inspiration from this girl. I really love her 😍

She does not seam to be one that wants peoples pity. She has worked to hard for what she has. I would love to see a TV show around such a person with a free spirit like this.
@@mediahouse5573 I want too do that skateboarding ?. .
I’m proud of you, I have a disability too. You give me hope in this uncertain world.
Hi my name is Carolyn and l came across your ♥️ not to this amazing women , you to can do anything you want in this world so always place
God first in everything you do and it will be all right in this world
God bless ♥️ and take care
@@carolynwheeler9000 Yup, God first. 💕 That’s why I know I’ll be alright.
Her confidence is through the roof her adoptive mother did an excellent job raising her she is strong, independent, beautiful and an inspiration to everyone. ❤
THE FACT THAT SHE WAS 3 MONTHS OLD ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
Some humans are are so worthless and cruel
The woman that found her was a God sent so inspirational this young lady is beautiful her drive to prove others wrong is impeccable
God also made her without legs. How does THAT work?
@@GFINHK true that. if anything, she said "screw you god for making me legless" and made her life work despite such a curse
@@plrusek Exactly.
There are confused frighten people in this world, and beautiful brave people in this world to counter act them. Bless the people who found her.
Great human life lesson, happy to see she shares her life with a good person who love her .
Absolutely an amazing story and shows how much she enjoys life.
This woman is beautiful, confident, happy and badass. Also, her cat is adorable.
What's so awesome about special people like this is that it really makes you realize you have zero excuse to not live your best life too. So inspirational!
Kanya, you're absolutely talented and gorgeous ❤! You're a great motivation and inspiration for many people with or without a disability. I admire your strong confidence.
My god she’s so amazing!!!! I love how confident and comfortable she is, she doesn’t dwell on her disability she just continues doing what she loves and succeeding and getting better at it!! A true inspiration ❤️
No matter what anyone says, anything is possible. She is a true inspiration
This is the story we should listen, watch and live by this example of accepting differences and embrace them as something which will enrich us all.
I love her attitude and personality unlike other people. She seems compassionate and strong.
How heartless to leave a vulnerable baby on the side of the road. Kanya is so full of joy and is doing better than well. Personally, I wouldn't think about revenge, just pleasing myself.
She's so beautiful, strong and healthy, like wow, she can balance on her hands which I two-legged can't. She's the boss of her life ✌️ So inspiring!
I ser you as a all woman who took a difficult situation and made it work for her. An actress! An avid skateboarder! I see that being born without legs has made you very special, not disabled! Thank you for inspiring others.
When she said people stare at her cause she's awesome she said what I was thinking. I'd stare at her. She's freaking beautiful and strong. I love her attitude
She is mezmorizing!! Love who she is and her positivity!❤️❤️❤️❤️
She’s a woman whose learned to be strong through many adversities and to that I salute you! You should be very proud of yourself and I’m happy that life has brought you many blessings and opportunities.
Hats off to you girl for doing your thing !
What was missing at birth left room for all the better things to shine through. God bless you!
I see so many Americans with full and capable bodies making every excuse to not do one good thing in life, and here you are - a testament mind over matter, and indomitable spirit. You shine so brightly!
Much respect to you! And through all that you still look beautiful, god bless those people that found and took care of you ❤🙏🏾
She is real & seems sooo genuine. Her attitude is positive. What I like most about her is that she is ambitious and a go-getter. It makes one think about doing what we love and fulfilling one’s dreams. Thank you for sharing your story, you rock! 👊🏼♥️🥰
Probably one of the coolest people I've seen on here, she has amazing energy and just gives off a fearless vibe.
Wow! What an inspirational story. It puts into perspective how good we all have it. This girl is amazing!
Absolutely love this story!!! Glad she got to tell it!!!
She's kickass! I love her attitude.
I bet you won't see her on twitter telling everyone how they should live. She's out there doing it!!
Thank you for posting this interview video.
Wow wow!! We can all learn another from her attitude!! She is grabbing life and wrestling it to the ground!!💜💜💜
What an incredible life she's had so far! She's really lovely, with a very cool energy. Respect. 🧡
As I sit here watching this young women, it makes me think about my kids and their disabilities and I worry so much about them. I worry how will they go on with their lives without my help but watching this young women and how confident and independent she is make me less anxious and less worried about my kids. As they live their lives my kids will adapt and endure and figure life out just like the young women did. You are inspiring and amazing.
She is absolutely stunning. I'm glad she had a great family that loved her as she should have been loved. She may have half a body but she is 100% woman and deserves 100% respect and love as we all do.
This is absolutely inspirational! Thank you, so so so much for being who you are.
This like others who are “different” are better than those are indifferent. A great inspiring story. God bless this truly “fighting” lady.
Never seen anything like what she’s doing. What an amazing video one of the best I’ve seen in awhile.
“Living life well is the best revenge”, “do you”….,now that’s having a strong 💪🏼 mentality 👏
Your sense of gratitude and adventure coupled with entertaining
and of associating with people,with smiles and pragmatic attitude at the
face of a challenge ,are the virtues that will add beauty to the lives of the people,a quality that will win the hearts and minds of people ,the world over.Truly,you are a source of
great inspiration and a pride to the world at large !
Thanks for sharing !! ❤️❤️❤️
I love these type of videos because the persons are always so positive and they motivate me to never give up!!!
She’s a beautiful strong soul
she’s so beautiful and her personality matches it too 🌞
She’s absolutely beautiful both on the inside and out……how she deals with her circumstance is truly inspiring.
Wishing the best for you. Sending all the love and healing. Please stay strong. You're an amazing person. I wish you the best in life and nothing less. Truly a brave inspiration and fighter❤️
Shes beautiful and so positive.
Amazing attitude. She’s a very strong woman. And I love that her way of battling haters is living well. She’s above all of the hate, on a higher level. They are beneath her
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You are definitely my Inspiration.
Thank you very much, Ms. Kanya 🙏🏽
You inspire me even more than when I inspire myself and on bad days you got me through this in this day I thank you and I tell myself why do I even complain when other people have it harder than me or you know we might have it the same and you know we're just struggling but you give me a different perspective on how I look at life and her strong woman and thank you for lifting me up this video really help me!
She’s awesome. Enough said.
You have an incredible outlook and you are so positive. I love that you have embraced skating and are not afraid to live your best life. What a wonderful way ur mom raised you to be fearless and to try things. You are an inspiration to many. Btw, love ur cat. Sphinx cats are great and such good company!😻❤️
I just love her energy her spirit 😍 I'm resurrected😂✨😁 thank you for spreading your vibe!!
No enough words nor style of expression to admire her ! I can only say " what an endowment/a gift ! "
Wow she’s so amazing! I feel and see her beautiful energy in this world! You can definitely see how happy and how truly she enjoys life! Incredible!
She has an amazing spirit, she shows everything is on the mind. The sad part is when they fu**** up your mind and your life goes to hell with PTSD and other mental issues after suffering the evil evilness of this world.
Refuse to let them live rent free in your mind.
@@silentnight9655 Thank you, I don't know how to do that.
@@Nimue333 Anyone who says 'you just need to ...' is not speaking from experience. We are experts only on our own experience. I believe the answers come x
great story of a brave young girl and the people that adopted her are the best.
Your Nurse mother is an angel 👼 and your an amazing person who rose above any plight thrown your way. Those mosquitos had magic healing bites 😮
you just gave me all the motivation i will ever need thank you keep living your best life queen🤩💪
a true inspiration !!
Your life is a story and You're an outstanding , meaningful,and didactic human being. You inspire me and others. Life is complicated in conditions of existence. Never give up.
WOW!!! Thanks for sharing your story. You're very inspiring. I have hope & insight towards a better life for myself.
amazing amazing amazing! strong mind with a good heart…who cares what other people think about her! lots of love from Malaysia ❤️
She sounds very mentally strong and healthy, so inspiring, I wonder if she has to do work around acceptance of her condition and or rejection issues because of what her birth parents did to her. Interesting. You go girl :)
I really love this story. She is so amazing and I love her attitude towards life
Good for you I'm glad you've found your place in this world. You are so amazing. Keep doing what you love.
What an incredible story! Only wish the best for this amazing lady!
What an incredible woman! Hope to keep seeing her do amazing things and make an impact on others! 💪
I'm so glad you realize that people look at you are thinking that you're awesome. I always tell my son his disability makes him unique and he can do anything. Never take no for an answer
Wow. What a wonderful woman. She is braver than most men I know. What heartless people abandoned her as a three month old baby. Heart breaking. I am glad there are good people on this world who saved her because she is a special soul. I wish her long happy life. 🍀
All I can say is you go girl the world is yours you're amazing
She more braver than me and i have legs. God Bless her.
Какие молодцы её родители ! Низкий им поклон и уважение , что не отдали в приют и воспитывали полноценного , доброго и достойного человека ! Другие с руками и ногами строят из себя барышень высшего света , накачаные селиконом во всех местах , а поговорить с ними не о чем . А эта девочка такая доброжелательная и вся на позитиве ! Счастья ей и всего доброго !
You are AMAZING! Truly a role model for those with disabilities, and those without.
she's such an inspiration, only if i could be half the woman she is.
😑😑😑
Omg I love her, her spirit is ferocious. What a beautiful badass.
how could anyone throw away that little bundle of cuteness? glad she was found in time
