This is Graham Hunt and he's paralysed from the waist down. But thanks to that clever lawn mower thing behind him, he can play golf.
It's called the Paragolfer.
"The ParaGolfer is a specially constructed multi-terrain powered standup wheelchair that allows a disabled or physically challenged person to stand up and play golf.
The ParaGolfer will play approximately 36 holes of golf and will travel 21.5 miles. The twin high-performance motors easily transports the player through the sand and bunker play. The specially designed wheels will travel easily across the green with no damage at all.
The ParaGolfer rises in various degrees from sitting to standing to allow you more freedom in your swing. And will easily master inclines of up to 30° and slanted surfaces up to 17°."
