OK, I did a search before posting this, but didn't find any significant discussions. Please point me to it if this has been discussed before...
I was out skiing yesterday and as I was riding up the lift at one point I saw several one-legged skiers pass beneath me on the slope. I am impressed with the will of these folks not to let the loss of a leg stand in their way of living their lives and doing what they want to do. Being a diver, this set me to wondering if a person could continue to dive if they lost a leg. It seems to me it would be exceedingly difficult, if not impossible, to fin well enough to dive effectively.
Anybody have any thoughts?
