Simon Kindleysides, a British man paralyzed from the waist down due to an inoperable brain tumor, recently climbed over 1,500 stairs to the top of the 51-story Leadenhall Building to break a world record.

👟 Making record time... The skeleton, built by ReWalk Robotics, has allowed Simon to break not one, but two world records; he also set the title for fastest marathon distance in a robotic walking device in 2018.
