An amputee who lost his legs ditched the wheelchair to become a professional skateboarder.

When Italo Romano from Brazil lost his legs in a train accident, he thought his life was over.

But after discovering a natural talent for skateboarding he hasn’t looked back.

Now a professional skater, the 27-year-old travels the world and regularly competes against able-bodied skateboarders, winning medals and acclamation wherever he goes.
