STEEL HANDS PINGPONG PLAYER

Because of a landmine accident thirty years ago, Mr. Nguyen Van Loi lost two hands and one eye forever, but with a strong will, he passed over all the difficulties and became the director of a construction company. Three years ago, his eyesight got worse because of age so he decided to play any sport that could help him to get better, then he choose table tennis.

At the beginning, he could not play because of his 3 kilos steel hands weight, the heavier the more difficult!

Once again, he never gave up and designed the new hands for table tennis playing, with a racquet fixed on the right hand, now the total weight of his new hands were much lighter than the regular ones and he could play easily set by set.
