Spencer West

(Reader Contribution to 10 Most Inspirational Athletes With Prosthetic Limbs)



Double amputee Spencer West recently climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro using only his hands in an attempt to raise awareness for the charity Free the Children and helped raise half a million dollars to many families in Kenya who don't have water. Recently, Spencer's incredible story was also the center of attention in the lyric video for singer/songwriter Nelly Furtado's single "Spirit Indestructible" West is truly a spirit indestructible!
