In a breakthrough that has transformed his life, a paralyzed man has achieved the unimaginable: walking again through the power of his thoughts. Gert-Jan Oskam, a 40-year-old Dutch man, suffered a devastating cycling accident 12 years ago that left him paralyzed.
However, thanks to cutting-edge electronic brain implants, his thoughts now wirelessly communicate with his legs and feet through a spinal implant. While still in the experimental phase, this incredible feat has received high praise from a leading UK spinal charity. Gert-Jan describes the experience as a joyous rebirth, allowing him to stand, climb stairs, and embrace the simple pleasures of life.
