I ALWAYS love to see much love directed towards a human being (that is handicapped) that overcomes that what has been stumbling and blocking him in leading a normal life. But, this is a special case - Terry Garrett is, most likely, going to be the first blind man who gets to be the first blind person in space. Not only that, but he proves that some things that the term "impossible" does not exist. Would you ever think a blind man could beat The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time? Still don't believe it? Well, watch this video: [video=youtube;nmmqarQRSSE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmmqarQRSSE&feature=player_detailpage[/video] Still thinking he's not special? Well, here's his youtube channel, and he just beat the Forest temple. And that level is hard, believe me. Also, here's the astronaut video in which they address him as the (Future) first blind person in space.

Besides, he proves that Navi ACTUALLY has a purpose and is helping him a great deal.
Wow, that is incredible. I find that the motivation to achieve extraordinary things is greatly enhanced in handicapped people. The Olympics are happening here in Britain next year, as most of you should know. To be honest, the games I want to see most are the Paralympic versions. I want to see people with an average of one leg sprint just as fast as a person with two. I want to see people with no lower body control show skills in a basket ball game that cannot be matched by someone who can walk. There's something about people overcoming extreme difficulty that amazes me, and inspires me to improve myself.
