Man born without elbows defies odds by learning to play piano

  • 6 years ago
A British man has defied all the odds by becoming an incredible piano player - despite being born without any elbows.

Bart Gee, 34, was born with arthrogryposis, a rare physical disability which weakens muscles and stiffens joints.

Doctors told his parents he would never be able to walk, sit up independently and would have a bleak outlook to life.

But despite being unable to bend his legs, arms or fingers, Chippenham-based Bart defied the odds by taking his first steps aged three.
