| Nick Vuicic in India |
He was born in Australia with a rare condition - a perfectly healthy baby without any limbs. His parents gradually came to terms with it and decided to give him a normal upbringing. Nick attended mainstream schools and acquired a university degree. While a student he founded Life Without Limbs, a non-profit organisation which he continues to mentor.
None of this happened without grit and hard work. As a 10-year-old, Nick was so depressed and frustrated that he had seriously considered suicide. There were ups and downs. Today, thirty one year-old Nick Vuicic owns a company called Attitude is Altitude. He has written books and acted in films. He enjoys swimming, surfboarding, football and golf. He has even gone skydiving! Hard to believe? Read this article in the Daily Mail -UK.
