Andre van Rüschen has no memory of the day he lost all feeling in his legs. After a car accident in Germany, he had a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from the waist down. When he woke up from a coma in a hospital in Hamburg, the doctors told him he would never walk again.
But now, thirteen years later, van Rüschen is back on his feet and he competed as a pilot in the Powered Exoskeleton race at the Cybathlon in Zurich this past weekend: http://engt.co/2dOmbtf
Tune in next week to watch the finale of 'Superhumans', and see the winners of the world's first cyborg games.
