Well since that is a V.A.C. enabled stadium I would assume it's a mod... :D

Also, much respect to the runner in question.

do you imagine if he was allowed to run in the olimpics how many top athletes would have "accidents"?

Speaking as an amputee, I can assure you that no sane person would elect to have their legs removed below the knee in order to become a 'better runner'.

Today might still be a bit early but, rude or not, I also believe that we'll see a lot of implants and augmentation in the near future. We already do it with our brains and tools we use instead of just thinking. Like calculators etc. So although some great math geniuses might be proud of their "naturally given" ability to calculate - most of us give a damn about it because it's easier, better, to rely on tools.

Now, today we're just at the beginning of all that. We're barely beginning to transplant limbs, replace them with real ones or mechanical ones. We're also beginning to transplant eyes though and in a couple of years many will eventually want the full 360° package with nightvision and thermospectral capabilities. Who knows?

Fact is, this runner certainly makes it clear that artificial limbs can be at least absolutely equal to real ones under certain conditions. If research continues then eventually even better. What that means is for up to each own to decide I guess.

Also, I do know an amputee and also a disabled person and what they truly want is to be treated equally. There's nothing rude about saying an opinion like that. Eventually people will get so used to it, like to piercings, that it's normal. Body modification IS a topic of the future. For sure.

This guy was amazingly tough. Never complained. Just did it. You have to respect that.

Was he a professional soldier? Yes.

Was he a good person? In the opinion of Post-War Germany, no. He was deported several times for his Nazi leanings and continuing support for Hitler after his death. Not a lot to respect about that.

I only said his work ethic was outstanding. He didn't call in sick too often did he?
