Oscar Pistorius


Oscar Pistorius

The perpetrator walking picture Oscar Pistorius, accused of murder, his face covered with a hooded sweatshirt, provided a striking contrast to the morning in London last August, when he ran the Olympic stadium, waving to the applause of 80,000 spectators.

The Blade Runner, he was called to his nickname of the public address system. The first double amputee runner to compete in the Olympics. A man who defeated the great opportunity after his birth in South Africa without a fibula bone in his lower leg, which is surgically removed below the knee when he was 11 months old.

Pistorius will be launched off the starting blocks in the opening heats of the 400 meters, the transition to the semi-finals as an inspiration to many, that the lines between valid and invalid fade.

"If something happens to you and you lose both legs, some people would," Bryshon Nellum, Quarter Miler in the United States, he said after the race. "For him to keep running, it's unbelievable. Amazing."
