00:00:00
first came up with the nickname Nohanded
00:00:02
Bandit when I was 34. I was working on
00:00:07
power lines. We were working on a 14,400
00:00:10
volt power line. Went to throw away a
00:00:13
piece of scrap wire and the tail end
00:00:16
flipped up and hit the power line. And
00:00:18
then 14,400 volts came in my left hand
00:00:22
and out my right hand. Due to the burn
00:00:25
injuries, the insides of my forearms
00:00:28
were burnt so badly that they had to
00:00:30
amputate my hands. When I was in the
00:00:32
hospital, I was working with the
00:00:34
occupational therapist and they were
00:00:36
trying to teach me how to do things with
00:00:38
these hands. We were looking on YouTube
00:00:41
and there wasn't very many people on
00:00:44
YouTube there. There wasn't any people
00:00:46
on YouTube teaching how to do that. So,
00:00:49
at the time I thought maybe once I get
00:00:52
better I'll make YouTube videos. And
00:00:55
then I was thinking what should I go by?
00:00:57
Thought nohanded. And what rhymes with
00:00:59
no-handed? Bandit kind of rhymes.
00:01:05
Didn't hear a nap.
