Oh dear merciful Zeus...

I found this via
Deadspin
: A young Chinese girl lost her legs in a car accident and her parents replaced them with...a basketball. And in case you're wondering:
I'm being deadly serious here
.
Fortunately,
she now has prosthetic legs
.

Those resourceful Asians! I wonder if we can replace Yao Ming's feet with basketballs when they break down again.
Wow the interesting thing is that she's a swimmer. I wonder how that works but that's pretty damn awesome.

That was a
ballzy
move by the parents.
They probably
bawled
for days when this happened.
This story really
deflated
my day.
She looks like she has a little more
bounce
to her step now.
She must have had to
jump through a lot of hoops
to get where she is today.
She looks like she is
having a ball
though.
She's a real
baller
in the swimming pool.
I wonder if she is also in the
ball
room dancing competition?
Thats all I got. I feel like there should be more though. And I also feel that I might be going to Hell.
