AutoBlog: Video: Man born without arms changes brakes on car with his feet

Matt Stutzsman changes his brake pads with his feetJudging by the fact that you're reading Autoblog right now, you most likely love cars. Yet spending all your time ogling the latest in auto news doesn't make you a mechanic, and we're guessing there are a significant number of you (and a few of us on here on staff) who don't change their own brake pads, among other things.

29-year-old Matt Stutzsman is one of those do-it-yourself wrench-turners, but unlike most of us, he was born without arms.

Hit the jump to watch video of Stutzsman changing his brakes with his feet without even breaking a sweat.

Nicely done, sir!
