  • Kate Grey (Paralympic swimmer) hasn't used her plastic NHS-issue prosthetic arm for years. In the pool, it gets in the way. Now she's cycling, she needs a new limb to replace the hand she lost when she was two.

    I’m an a above elbow amputee I have the be bionic hand and an electronic elbow changed my world!

    That's about $5,300 CAD. Actually extremely affordable. Mind you, pre-Covid. That's about as much as any corrective plastic surgery. That's amazing.
    Btw, a Scrotum "Truss" is a type of 1 legged belt-harness used to assist people with crippling hernias (made for men, but was often used by women with the removal of the shield).

      Dang that truss would’ve been so useful for me when I was little and had a bad case of hernia....

    magnifico video, shows a little of the world of the protests, I put myself in the place of a person without a member, so I think that protests are important to even increase self esteem

      @wolf1066 3 года назад +3

      I know. I've been watching lots of videos about prosthetic limbs and the advancements being made and there are always downvotes! What sort of shit-stain would downvote/dislike a video about technology that improves the lives of people who were born without, or have lost, limbs? Some people are just nasty evil bastards, I think.

    That arm is way simpler than the one in Deus Ex, but we will probably be there in 10 years.

    • @FryingPan76
      @FryingPan76 3 года назад

      High end arms can do a lot more than the open bionics arm, but start at 30000€ and can go up to 100000. But it's safe to say, at open bionics you get the most bang for the buck

    "He could lift 700 pounds" ?! What deadlift, benchpress or what? That makes no sense saying things like that.

    • @TheSwiftblad3
      @TheSwiftblad3 3 года назад

      +lift -press

    • @FryingPan76
      @FryingPan76 3 года назад

      Benchpress obviously.

      dead lift to the hip what he required to do most heavy work like shoveling, carrying supplies etc...

    • @cyberpunkcomplex629
      @cyberpunkcomplex629 3 года назад

      elevation likely required a fair amount of finesse, such power above the hip obviously a reach. that does not mean they were not sturdy this was not 2021. back when quality meant something & was not just a slogan.

    Saying if she could go back and have not lost her hand sort of goes to prove disabled people are now quite a privaleged class, not that there's anything wrong with that. It's funny because not too long ago you could say the opposite was true.
