  • @erasmusso....that's fair comment. Kudos.

  • @texaspete66 For some people being able to stand up is an extraordinary sensation and those who never had any problems with that can't understand.

  • hate to say it but HUGE camel toe at 0:51

  • Whilst this could be seen as some sort of progres, lets not mess about and be real. This is not walking again. It's not even close. You can't give people false hope.

  • I have been patalized for 26 years I have been sitting.This is in it's infinte stages.To the post about being eiser in the chair is no.{eople look,and treat you very diffrent when you'r e in a wheelchair."some" people in wheelchairs get spressure soars from all that sitting,your back kils you...When I stand and walk for the first time I will cry like a baby.

  • The first thing that came to my mind was Sigourney Weaver’s hydraulic exoskeleton in ALIENS. A breakthrough...

  • Even though that is awesome wouldnt you rather just sit in a wheelchair than look like a robot?
