Paralympic Skier Josh Sundquist A Halloween God (Video)
By Phil Watson
Paralympic skier Josh Sundquist has won Halloween, again, and it’s not even close.
Josh Sundquist, the paralympic skier with the penchant for awesome Halloween costumes that attenuate his disability in fun, hilarious ways, has scored another win for 2014.
The man who has dressed up as a partially eaten gingerbread man, as the infamous leg lamp from A Christmas Story and as a flamingo last year is back … as a foosball player:
He even posted a video showing how the costume came together.
Sundquist was diagnosed with bone cancer at age 9 and was given a 50 percent chance to survive, according to his website.

He spent a year in chemotherapy, had his left leg amputated and was declared cancer-free at age 13.
Sundquist learned to ski at the age of 16 and was eventually named a member of the 2006 U.S. Paralympic Team that competed in Milano, Italy.
Now a member of the U.S. Amputee Soccer team, he went for broke with the theme at Halloween. So he’s obviously got a wicked sense of humor along with more motivation than most groups of three. He even had a little bit of fun at the expense of The Today Show on Wednesday.
Just keep doing you, Josh.
