After 4 of his fingers were amputated, an engineer was inspired by Australian actor Hugh Jackman and built a mind-blowing mechanical prosthesis. Check out the video and photos below!
The engineer is left-handed, so while recovering in the hospital he had an idea from a project he started when he was 17 years old in high school: he built a prosthetic arm and hand. Using his knowledge, he started thinking and drawing possible ideas for him to keep working. He watched the movie X-Men Logan film from 2017 and got an inspiration!
