There’s Jim Carter of Duluth, Minnesota, who was gored in the thigh by a buffalo, exploding his femoral artery.  His doctors told him he would never walk again; he would have none of it. Never a dancer, his physical therapist sent him to the local dance studio, where he practiced Waltz boxes for hours a day in front of a mirror to reconnect his brain to his leg.  A few years later?  He entered a ballroom dance competition with his instructor Andrea Kuzel – and won Top Newcomer Male.
