Man Invents A Device That Lets People With Paraplegia Walk

This amazing Device called the ReWalk is allowing a 41 year old man, Radi Kaiof, take his first steps since 1988, when he was paralyzed in a military accident. The man who created the device, Amit Goffer, describes his machine a mix between the exoskeleton of a crustacean and the suit worn by comic hero Iron Man. The ReWalk helps paraplegics to stand, walk and climb stairs. Goffer himself was paralyzed in an accident in 1997 but he cannot use his own invention because he does not have full function of his arms.

I thought I would show you how this beautiful device works. Here is a video of Radi, and how he lives his life now that he has the ReWalk.


This story is so inspiring, and shows that there's hope for a lot of people who can't walk. 250,000 Americans have Spinal Cord Injuries. Just think if they purchased this machine they would be able to walk again. People who were born paraplegic will be able to walk for the first time, ever.
