Saw it AGES ago, or if it wasn't him it was some other dude with the same disability...


Tbh im not particularly impressed, its nothing out of the ordinary from other people with disabilities overcoming them to so something they want, the only difference is he wants to do paintball where as the others may want to play music ect


Call me harsh, but I see it more as a way of trying to cash in / get publicity rather than anything else

Yes, in all sports they have players with disabilities and its not just this guy but this is the first I have seen and I think he is one hell of a guy.
And if he was to get interviewed in a paintball mag or website its good for the sport and anyone that has a disability.

Guy in a wheelchair on PBN.

His chair dont count though so you could hide behind it, throw him off, ride it and do a drive-by.

You could soooo easily mug him while he was reloading ....

We have a disabled guy who plays at my local Skirmish ,got his legs shot off below the knees in the Falklands apparently..We call him 'Sink'

This is why i love paintball so much . No matter your background ,disabilities ect you can still take part in this sport and still play at a hight level .

If you look around on this forum you will find a number of player's with disabilities such as Rat and myself .

Good on him and i hope pgi get to speak to him .
