| Lee. This may interest you, There was a young Dutch fellow that joined the USA airborne forces when Holland was partly liberated. In training he had a bad accident and broke his back. paralyzed from the waist.
He was invited back to the states, where a Chinese Doctor was prepared to operate on him, and try to connect up the nerves to operate his limbs. He went. and it was a lengthy op, but it had to be carried out without anesthetic as the nerve ends could not be found while in a coma.
He has wires coming out of the rear of his back, and they are attached to an "operating box" on his belt. We call him Byonic Bill, and he is still about, though very frail now. He would demonstrate how he could move his legs up and down at speed. Just for laughs.....
It is all perfectly genuine, because he was only to pleased to show any doubters the fine wires coming out of his lower spine back and into his control box. Byonic Bill!
