Armless Archer: There's almost nothing he can't do

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Matt Stutzman was born with no arms — just stumps at the shoulders — but he says there's almost nothing he can't do.

He holds a world record for the most accurate distance shot in archery, which includes able-bodied archers.

He drives a car without modifications — right foot on the steering wheel — plays basketball, and can write with both feet, both shoulders, and his mouth.

He shaves and feeds himself with his feet, and his house in southeastern Iowa has no modifications of any kind.

"I tell my wife Amber there's only one thing I can't do," he said Wednesday.
