A ‘Must See’

Have you guys ever heard of Aaron Fotheringham aka one of the coolest people ever??? If you haven’t, you HAVE to watch this video!


Born with Spina Bifida, Aaron has always faced challenges. However, he has never been one to give up easily. At eight years old, Aaron began going to skate parks with his dad and brother to simply watch from behind the fence. This was until his brother suggested he try some tricks on his wheelchair. Let’s just say, the rest is history.

After landing the first ever wheelchair back flip, Aaron became and internet sensation and travels the country showing other kids how to use their wheelchairs in innovative ways.  He’s also a cast member on MTV’s Nitro Circus where he keeps up with the rest of the crew and does some pretty awesome tricks.

Aaron is so good at what he does, I find myself forgetting he’s even in a wheelchair when I watch his videos. Then I remember…. and I’m amazed all over again!
