| Dennis Oehler - At age 24 and only a few weeks away from signing a professional soccer contract, Dennis was hit by a car and his right leg had to be amputated below the knee. Shortly after the incident, a friend took him to watch the Paralympic Games. Astounded by the elite level of competion, Dennis was determined to become an athlete again. Just four years later at the 1988 Seoul Paralympics, Dennis set a world record of 11.73 seconds in the 100-meters. |

Todd Shaffhauser - In 1984, at thge age of 15, Todd was diagnosed with bone cancer in his left leg. In order to save his life, his leg was amputated above the knee. After 18 months of chemotherapy treatment, the cancer was in remission. He entered his first race in 1986. By the Seoul Paralympics, Todd became the world's fastest above-knee amputee by running 100 meters in 15.77 seconds. At the 1995 World Games in Germany, he broke his own world record by running 14.55 seconds. | ||
