I’ve been watching his videos for years. I didn’t even know he was a quadruple amputee when I first found his channel.

He was a consistent content creator that made a ton of vids exploring the history of games and would go through all the platform releases one by one. He was also pretty funny and had a wicked sense of humor.

RIP PatMan QC - you will be missed

Wow. I'd self delete if I lost my hands. It takes a special kind of person to keep going like that.

Hear me out...

My dumb brain can't figure out what it is in that last scene.

I think it's the arm covers. Reminder to read top right to bottom left, so the final shot is the dude's eyes

Thanks! Reading it that way it makes total sense now.

Trying to take off the arm covers with her mouth?

They're putting them on. It's right to left with Japanese manga.

Is it also down-to-up? Because it doesn't make sense otherwise.

As a person who reads manga frequently, the person who made this, screw things up

She about to whip out the ass-blaster5000 on her stump!

You should watch one of his videos of him bowling. You might gain a different perspective!

Maybe, maybe not. Losing both hands is definitely awful, as there's so fucking much we do that needs them, but we can manage to regain some utility with prosthetics. No fine control, but enough that your arms and elbow won't be unused.

Losing both arms, like down from the middle of the biceps, would force you to improvise with your mouth, legs and feet
