A bloke who suffered life-changing injuries during a horror forklift accident has been given new hope of prosthetic limbs.<\/p>\n

Loren Schauers, from Great Falls, Montana in the United States, had his lower body crushed when a forklift fell 50ft. His forearm was also severed during the accident on September 27, 2019. The young man has documented his recovery with the help of his wife, Sabia Schauers-Reiche. In their latest update, the pair revealed Loren may be getting prosthetic limbs.<\/p>\n

Last week (September 17) the couple revealed Loren\u2019s severed forearm would be replaced with a prosthetic device by Atom Limbs. Their website claims they've made the first artificial human arm, capable of the near-full range of motion, restoring a basic sense of touch, and be mind controlled. But it won\u2019t be available until 2024.<\/p>\n

During the footage, Loren jokes that he will look \u201cpretty cool\u201d next year with his prosthetic limbs while dressed as the Black Knight from Monty Python when they attend a Renaissance Fair.<\/p>\n

Speaking in the video Loren revealed that they had issues with their footage for the clip, but recalled the missed moments. Including one incident where they ran into a native woman who "was very nice" and gave them "100 bucks and some native blankets" while staying at the Red Lodge at the Renaissance Fair.<\/p>\n

Speaking in the video, he said: "We were in Red Lodge at the Renaissance Fair they asked if I would be willing to come down next year early to um take part in their script that they have during the Renaissance Fair and they want to do a piece of the Black Knight for Monty Python and they want me to act is the Black Knight. We think that'll be pretty cool with prosthetic limbs velcroed on."<\/p>\n
