    You know when I was a kid I was terrified of losing a limb in an accident, I mean everyone is right? But with the way bionics is improving more and more it's becoming less and less worrisome. These people are pioneers and while these limbs can't replace ones they've lost it must be so amazing to have use of an arm or leg again like that. I can't wait to see how far it goes down the road.

      But also keep In mind that a bionic arm will never become as capable as the real biological arm could because the biological arm is designed to do many more jobs than just grab things and move around like climbing, swimming, and digging plus a bionic arm is more vulnerable to the elements of erosion and wear and tear

      @@Guest4465 I dunno man, I think human arms are quite suspectible to erosion and wear and tear, too. A lightweight, waterproof and functional prothetic arm with a good response time wouldn't really be worse if it can be optimised further than we have currently been able to achieve.

    Anything that can help a child live a normal life is absolutely amazing in my opinion. The fact the girl said her arm makes her siblings jealous, I can only imagine it must change something she's always seen as a disability into something to take pride in. Amazing, and I hope this tech keeps advancing.

    • @dag1704
      @dag1704 3 роки тому +25

      Kids, if not poisoned by prejudgement from adults, are mostly fascinated and even sometimes get jealous.
      I have an prosthetic leg, which is basicly a foot and a carbon fibre shell around my normal leg and kids were always curious and sometimes amazed.
      It's like a superpower "Go ahead, kick me, it will hurt you more than me".
      Normally the kids are pretty good at arranging themselfs with the situation they are in. I can't go skiing, or skating, or run fast, so what? As a kid that was okay for me, and now it is okay for me too.
      I think the worst is, when someone healthy looses a limb and suddenly abruptly gets confronted with everything they can no longer do. It seems to be easier to be born with it.
      I mean I know people who lost limbs in terrible accidents and life a quite happy life, but I think it is worse to always get remembered by things, that were normal once.

    • @christinal1967
      @christinal1967 3 роки тому +3

      I wouldn't say normal, but better. I may not be missing a limb but I crave for the day where rock climbers use their prosthetics to get a better grip on cliffs, or a roller blader to be able to add wheels on their prosthetics for faster travel. I don't see prosthetics as something that can give back but as something that can go farther than the limits of our mortal fleshy vessels.

    Are these the same guys who got Robert Downy Jr. to personally give a little boy an Iron Man themed arm complete with a Stark Industries carrying case?

    If they can replace the arm
    Why not give them more than two.

    I want them to come to South Carolina (specifically the Pawleys Island/Myrtle Beach area) so I could work on cybernetics.

    From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your flesh as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass that you call a temple will wither and you'll beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved. For the machine is immortal.

    That guy got the Adam Jensen arm, in a few years, this tech would be advanced, and probably will be regulated, for the people who needs it
