Tom Whittaker – prosthetic details?

Santosh Zachariah

List-members,

Would any of you have details regarding Tom

Whittaker’s climbing prosthesis? What type of

socket? What components? What special

modifications and adaptations?

I did a search on the ‘Web, but was not able to

get any details, apart from a picture.

For those of you who are wondering who Tom

Whittaker is, he is a BK amputee who, on his

fourth attempt, stood atop Mt. Everest on the

Wednesday.
