"Wow !!! Finally he allowed people come close to him. I am sincerely happy to see him relate like this. The first time I saw his video, the people at his village made him feel bad for his look and the mother was sad. But grateful to God he is at least moving around people."
Meanwhile, we previously reported about a 26-year-old man without hands who is an award-winning filmmaker.
The young man was born with a birth defect called limb hypoplasia which affected the development of the limbs and left him with no hands and tiny legs.
Without allowing this to hold him back, Thesun.co.uk reported that Isaac started vlogging and filming himself playing games with his feet which amazed many social media users.
His online presence grew and now, the 26-year-old is recognised as one of the best filmmakers in London as he has won awards for his hard work and exploits.
