Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
DESPITE being born with a rare muscle weakness condition, a teenager has never let his condition hold him back and learnt how to use his feet as hands. Devin, 15, was born with Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC, which resulted in him having limited use of his arms as most of the muscles in his shoulders don-t work. But the teenager, from Montana, has taught himself to use his feet as his arms and proved that everything is possible - Devin has excelled in school, became a member of his school-s wrestling team and is working towards his goal to become an architect

i bet he has some hella core and back muscles. just try to hold that V possition he does lift legs and chest with hips on floor, those are hard as hell and he does them with eaaase. also i wonder how using different limbs impacts neurological development as well, i wonder if his brain has rewired the signals since hes adapted from such a young age, so that his feet effectively, to the brain atleast, are hands.

Very interesting and motivating, I hope the whole world know about him because there is people need some motivation, I'm actually use my feet as well but the different is I literally born without arms, love how his mother supporting him to be independent
I found this accidentally when I was looking if there is someone Good with mouse and keyboard at gaming with feets because I find it difficult

I felt bad for him until I saw that -I stand for the flag- garbage he was wearing, along with the million American flags he has on the walls. Sooo black people should just shut up and accept their abuse, right? Ironic coming from someone who also experiences (a fraction of, but still) every day prejudice, disrespect, bullying, etc.

I tried to put my socks on like he did in this video, and I'm seriously impressed how he does it so quickly like it's nothing. It took my over 5 mins to get my first sock on then I gave up when I realised I had to somehow do the second one with a sock on -

I would like to meet this guy and work with him a little. I am a mindfulness meditation instructor, I work with energy I may be able to give him some really important techniques that will influence his efforts immensely. He is very exciting.

He is handsome and what a personality. The stand out from all video o watched of people with desability, sometimes they seems forcing a normal live. He is so natural that we cant even see he has any problem at all.
reply

This guy has arms, it would not be better to try to improve the movement of the arms because it is seen that he has movements in the fingers of the hand and can even articulate the elbows of the arms-

I saw a similar video of a slightly younger girl who also had to use her feet for everything and she cooked very similarly. So interesting and inspiring. I need to be better at trying and trying again.

This young man climbed a rock wall! I can't climb a rock wall. I have zero upper body strength. All mine is lower but he takes lower body to a new level! Love from Ohio to this wonderful young man!

Instead of hands or feet I was born with 4 talons. It is rare, but sometimes people tell me I can't do something because I don't have hands.
And then I spit a 25 second 90 foot line of acid on them.

I cried tears of joy because as a grown behind adult I complain about having to adult and this young man over here living his best life! Love his spirit and his ability to dominate his situation!
reply

this boy is just TALENTED AND STRONG i cant even put my socks on with my hands AND HE CAN DO IT WITH HIS FEET! woow ur the strongest person ive ever saw in MY WHOLE LIFE
reply

he seems like an amazing boy but youd think since his arms and hands dont work that the doctors would have amputated them because they seem useless no offense to him
reply

Poor kid, he seems such a great person with a great personality. I guess sometimes we just take things for granted and forget that people like this exist.
reply

wow he has the nicest mum, she-s so down to earth and supportive in the best way! she-s just so normal. like not in a bland way, in a comforting way!
reply

I am feeling inspired by his attitude and determination to remain independent and he can fry an egg better than me.
reply

I can barely do stuff my hands the right way and he-s over here doing stuff with his feet he-s a real inspiration
reply

Ummm. Can anyone compliment Devon for being a better artist with his feet than most people are using their hands?
reply

hes amazing but if he cant use his arms why doesn't he get them amputated thatd be the most logical thing to do
