    "so I can change my height to be as tall as I want" that's so cool! You could get into small spaces too! Man, I don't know how I would live as an amputee, I already can't control my body! You are so grateful, and I just discovered your channel! I find these unique videos very interesting.

    I really enjoyed this video, and I think that your blades are super interesting. I do have one criticsm though (please take this constructively), with your music, try not to vary the volume so much. I find you talk quiet (which means I put my volume up) and then the music becomes super loud (I put my volume down). Awesome video, just wanted to point that out as it kind of takes away from the video for me. I subscribed anyway, cus I like your content. :)

I’m not an amputee myself but I’ve had my life changed working with differently-abled athletes and am in my junior year of uni with a dual degree in biomedical engineering and orthotics and prosthetics because my dream is to make devices to help amazing, driven, beautiful people to live with no limitations

      @ruinned 6 років тому +23

      He means blades are stiff prosthetics but there are options that give people the range of natural limbs and offer bending at the knee and ankle. Blades do not do these things but Isabelle prefers them.

    • @Taymanator0051
      @Taymanator0051 6 років тому +9

      One reason could be that microprocessor legs are extra expensive and two, they probably don't provide the same kind of shock absorption as blades do (for trampolining as much as she does). :)

      Ivan Ivanov I think she pulls the lever to allow the knee to be on bending mode then sort of kicks forward to get them to bend? I guess you could use your arms to force them instead.
      That's from what I can tell, could be wrong.

    Did u design them urself? Like the artwork? It's beautiful art, and that pink is the most gorgeous pink I think I ever seen!! I love that u made them ur own, fit them, I feel (..and obvi I don't personally kno u, in fact, just came across ur channel and watched a couple vids, and I'm in binge mode, I'm gonna watch them all lol, but anyway..like I said, don't kno u personally..so take this with a grain of salt..) to depict what an amazing, bright, colorful, happy, positive, (so many words I could use here🙃..) soul you have within urself, and it radiates from you, out of u! I just feel ur such an inspiration, not only for ur outlook on life, ur life, but embracing your differences and the awful, scary, circumstances that changed ur life and path at such a young age, even almost losing urself altogether. Many would give up, be depressed, some even just wishing they didn't pull thru for the fact they can't imagine how they'll be ever able to live a normal, happy life again. I've seen that more than a few times with people. But then, I see you, making it positive and determined to live the life, you almost lost, in a bright, beautiful, and positive way! Not taking life for granted, it was saved for a reason..always a reason, not letting it go to waste. Many don't get that 2nd chance or opportunity for it. Not caring what others think or stares at you, I'm sure u prob get, bc maybe they pity u or can't understand or imagine living this way. So with that right there..bring on those bright pink, graphic blades, and let people stare at them..which will lead them, to then stare at this young woman that is showing off just how triumphant, proud, STRONG, BRAVE, PERSEVERANT, AND DETERMINED, a young woman can be!! WITH JUST ONE LOOK or stare, THEY GIVE YOU..not letting that look or stare be one with pity on you. I could just go on and on here about ur Tenacity and witnessing here myself, the way u go about living your best life you could ever want, just a little differently than most others.
    YOU'RE ONE VERY RESILIENT, INSPIRING, STRONG AF, YOUNG WOMAN!!
    I'm so happy I came across u and ur channel!! The internet can (and definitely is), just a drama fueled, hateful, toxic, disturbing place. So to find creators like yourself, who bring such a peaceful, positive light to the internet, and world. And I find that it's special to find people, like yourself, that just bring this positive force. It's refreshing and a blessing!!
    Stay strong, and THANK YOU for being you, and showing the world you, and sharing your life journey so far. Your future is bright, and just wish u nothing but the best life has to offer. Again, love ur channel/vids, and happy to be a new subscriber of yours!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
    ..**sorry this was so long..i tend to post my comments on the lengthy side. Just get excited to share my thoughts of how I feel when I view something so passionately...u may never even see this..video is like..close to a year old now..🤷🏼‍♀️. But, better late, than never, to come to the party🎉🎈😄🤙🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I guess given you will grow and change sockets you can be really bold with colour and design. I love pink and purple, but when choosing the colour for my wheelchair I went with a kind of metallic teal it makes it stand out and seems to blend quite well with stuff that I wear, but I do have to stick with it for 5 years. 18mths in and I'm not regretting it or dreaming about what colour I'll choose next time, I'm dreaming about what subtle adjustments I want, colour will probably be how I feel on the day I order.

      A lot of people think that it can hurt when you are standing on a prosthesis, but that is not true! :) It could actually hurt like, after an operation, but I dont think that the doctorst even let you stand on a prosthesis when your scars aint healed so - no, I'm sure it doesn't hurt. ^^
      + maybe if you have some problems with your scars, or at some other place on your leg, it could possibly hurt, but I'm sure it doesn't if you don't have any other health issues.

    I have very great respect for you becouse i think i wouldn't be able to deal with your amputee especially not at such a young age
    So if anyone ever tries to offend you keep in mind that you are a very beautiful and strong person that can be very proud of itself
    I hope i have expressed myself correctly

    "I can be as tall as I want to be" Is it bad that my mind instantly pictured you being taller than a sky scraper?
