One handed tricks: Opening Bottles

[KotaBear981]

i have one arm too :) i was born without it. It's funny when see the faces people make when i do everyday things that usually require two hands. It's apparently the coolest thing in the world to be able to tie your shoe one handed! haha :)

[JustClickHere1]

my 6 year old brother has the same thing as you he was born without a hand this is so cool he watched it with me =]

[Mewfan]

"... if you don't have an elbow user your shoulder", that's one thing i'd neven thought id hear

[sekke123]

Doesn't help me. (yet xD)

[Anikan1005]

Omg, what happened? Were you born like this? Or were you in a war and it was shot off?

[aznkid1452]

[soul3n]

@aznkid1452 He passed away. Google him.

[aznkid1452]

@soul3n whats his name?

[elias18years]

I wish he was still alive

[thenetnomad]

Thank you for posting this, man! I injured my primary hand and I was trying like crazy to open a pill bottle (the child safety kind) and I was finally able to get it using a modified version of this method between my legs using the floor for leverage against the child safety mechanism! Thanks!

[RagingXela]

Nice man

[aquiyutiluded]

Why was this video was recommended to me by youtube... I honestly thought there was a trick you could do not out of necessity.

[sabbat666]

[pitadascuecasrotas]

You can also put the bottle in the middle of your legs,and than open with one hnd

[hockeyplayeer7]

[adamrocks2006]

thanks man

[kikkeruddabut]

He died?

[cuzz120]

so true mate good on ya

[1999sayshi]

I don't understand why you guys are so sad that he died. This man tought great lessons and was a great man, but he is in a better place now. Be happy for him, not sad. Although you should be happy for him, I beileve the reason we are sad is because he was taken away from this world, for no good reason. Good or not, this man taught life lessons and should be remembered for it. Live a good life in heaven my friend, R.I.P. you are truly great. ;-)

[stupidnews101]

:( R.I.P

[caprockstar69]

His name is Craig Decker. If you do a search of Utah Lake Craig Decker, you can find articles about his life and death. Truly inspiring young man.

[corbingo]

What an inspiration...I love his quote at the end of the video: "Remember, you can do it. You just have to find a way!"

[divababe106]

Don't feel too bad. He was a great guy, it's true; if anyone I knew was ready to go, he was. And for Violinist, he drowned.

[violinist881]

[maly328]

polish scientist found the linkage or something of the three fingers which enabled the prostatic hand to function like a real one they just didnt have money for further studying and the manufacturing

[WizzardOfGlue]

damn when are the robot hands coming out

[NedBurchfiel]

It's a tragedy that such a creative and motivated individual had to pass away so soon. My prayers go out to him and his family.

[J7SPA1N]

looks like a chicken wing

[SilverlakeDehners]

I read about his drowning and it made me very sad to realize that he is gone. What a nice, intelligent, focused, attractive person he was. He will be missed!

[FE2R]

wait.. did he die??? wtf

[FE2R]

lol.. man... u r god

[sydneydyrdek3]

nice

[natemills]

Prayers and best wishes to Craig's family. I didn't know him outside the videos, but he seemed a very positive and happy person...you can see it in his face.

[spacey2stacey]

Sad to hear that he passed away... Here is a link from the article of them finding his body 3 days after he drowned. RIP

[TRUTHAgainstTobacco]

I was out going for a walk by Utah Lake on Sunday, and noticed all of the commotion - after asking an officer, I knew that there had been some sort of accident.

Reading a news story, you don't get to know the person. But, after watching this minute and 14 seconds of Craig, I can tell that a truly cool person was lost this past weekend.

My prayers and condolences to the family. Craig, enjoy the use of both hands again.

[Daviticus1000]

Why? He seemed to be doing okay to me.

[yalila1996]

R.I.P... :(

[lacracey14]

we'll miss you.. parents, im SOO sorry!

[Demiwolfonangelwings]

We don't know if he is dead yet, he probably is you should all rememer him as someone who helped other overcome life's obstacles.

(he drowned in Utah lake, they have found his shoes, but they havn't found him,I doubt he suvived pardon spelling)

[EenkHart]

R.I.P.

[1armedwonder]

Hey! thx so mutch 4 helping people the way u do its important that people get to see that u can can do whatever u set ur mind 2 no matter if its opening a jar or becomeing a singer like me. (By the way I was born with only one hand so its just a little different.more mobility)anyway thax s mutch! u rock!

[mingecakes]

nice 1 man

[thedailyenglishshow]

Is it just me, or is that more of a jar than a bottle?

[thedailyenglishshow]

"Of course if you don't have an elbow, use your shoulder" LOL ... it sounds like you're substituting ingredients in a recipe. Nice video. It's good to know that if I ever lose a hand, I'll still be able to open jars :)

[Taber1975]

Great job again! I use my knees or feet to help open them. The sneakers help lots with the rubber to keep it tight.

Heather :)

[rlynne223]

reps

[greg8t]

or call the bomb squad and run! great sense of humour :)

[meerx99]

Fantastic videos. More please with prosthesis etc...

[deafboogie]

this is odd. it seems everything that is being trained that week you are already thinking about it. i better get to this every week. i can't believe you are such a recent amputee. thank you again so much.

[theguywiththehook]

I've been a hand amputee for six years (nealy same level as your's). After all that time I'm still learning new tricks and adaptive solutions. Currently I'm learning from YOU, a very recent amputee! Thanks for teaching an old dog some new tricks! Big hookshake to you!
