Pistorious at the Olympics!!

Good luck to him....but this is even more impressive, amputee swimmer Natalie Du Toit has qualified for the olympics and she doesn't even use a prosthetic leg! Thats pretty awesome.

Thats incredible really i guess Para-Olympics world may have suffered a change with Pistorius partecipating at the "normal" Olympics,he probably created a case.

Now many others may ask to be treated like him and partecipate at the Olympics

I do hope to see him doing well in China but im sure his greatest victory so far is going there and partecipate as anyone else

Whilst it is great that he won the battle to compete in the olympics, I believe his personal best is still around 1 second short of the qualifying time for the games, so I think it's a lot more likely that we'll see him in London in 4 years time
