      @@KunalKishanMehta​ Seemingly random overnight, he went deaf in one ear and simultaneously got tinnitus. This damaged his vestibular system, which affects balance among other things. Doctors had no idea when he would be able to walk normally again, and also ruled out any possibility of him ever climbing again. You can see him trip a couple of times in this video, but overall he's made amazing progress, defying odds.

      Something fun for a video would be trying out a game called 'a difficult game in climbing' on steam. Sheer determination and effort like real rock climbing. Maybe real world techniques like dynos and precision hands can be put to use in the game. Check it out.

The fact he's even climbing after what happened is ridiculous; I'm so impressed. Watching him climb has always motivated me, but seeing him in this video has motivated me even more. I'm really glad he is able to do the kilter board etc. I would actually love to see a video on that!
