Very happy to see this being dugg. How great to have someone who we can longer call disabled expand our notion of what it is to be human. It's a little scary, but mainly just thrilling.

Whenever the submitter is MBM you are supposed to complain that you submitted it first and he duped you.

Really cool... The only odd thing for me is that the lower leg is not proportional to the upper leg. Usually the upper leg is supposed to be longer.

I can't find a single picture of her without something attached to those stubs.

I think she's in a suit actually.
