World of the Bizarre

Man with half a body defies the odds

Kenny Easterday was born with only half a body due to a rare medical condition and walks around on his hands.
Despite his disability Kenny is able to lead a relatively normal life including playing sport and finding love despite refusing a weelchair or any kind of prosthetics in favour of getting around as he is using only his hands.
Despite only having half a body, Kenny Easterday insists he can live the life of a normal man. Now he appears to have proved it after claiming he has fathered a child. Easterday, 35, was born with a rare condition called sacral agenesis, which prevented his spine from developing normally.

Sounds to me like his girlfriend cheated and then said " um, ah, er, um of course the child is yours." And his reply was "its a miracle." yeap i was thinking the same thing.

According to Wikipedia, the kid isn't his, he and his girlfriend broke up... and apparently this guy has been a regular on the Jerry Springer Show for years.

and apparently this guy has been a regular on the Jerry Springer Show for years. Well... to be kind, he probably doesn't get too many real job offers and I'm sure Jerry pays him to come on the show.
