Watched all the way through and suddenly remembered a story my ex-wife told about one of her cousins who'd had a mastectomy and wore prosthetics in her bra. One day she was driving alongside an 18-wheeler and realized the driver was trying to sneak a peek down her blouse... so she pulled one of the prosthetics out, waved it at him and yelled, "IS THIS WHAT YOU WANTED TO SEE?!?!?"

OMG....I wish I would have thought of that when I first got my mastectomy (I was a very fit 43) - I am 61 now and nobody looks twice at me - lol

What do you say to a one-legged hitchhiker? Hop in! I lost my leg at age 9 to bone cancer and I’m now 68. Hated using my prosthetic leg, whose name was Ringo, by the way. I have no hip joint and working the whole apparatus was slow and cumbersome. Quit using it at age13. You and I have proven we can do anything. I’ve scuba dived, ridden a bike thousands of miles and grew up working on a farm. Keep up the good attitude!

@wharkkyryhniann8023 2 года назад

"I have more kids than legs!" Awesome! You rock, Jamie! Keep up the strength and faith. I believe in you and loved your story. I got introduced to you and Clisare on The TRY channel and have loved you both ever since!

@AlterMann57 2 года назад

When Jamie said that all lot of people with disabilities these days seem to be wrapped in bubble wrap was spot on! I have a mate who only has one hand due to a birth defect, and he's a brilliant golfer. He get's challenged all the time, and always wins! He told me the same thing Jamie said a few years ago. I absolutely loved this chat, and after learning more about Jamie helps me admire him very much, that and he has awesome tattoos. Sliante, to you two!

@dsbauden 2 года назад

Jamie has the greatest laugh! When I watch The Try Channel it always makes me smile. I had no idea he has one leg but clearly it doesn’t define who he is. What a great guy! Thanks for a great interview Clisare! I enjoy you both so much! Cheers!

@richardbell2882 4 года назад

Jamie, keep being you. Fuck em if they cant take a joke. Your sense of humor seems to be what keeps you grounded. Its something that they can't deal with.

@thisdamnthingy 7 лет назад

Born with Spinabifida, been using a wheelchair for 30 years now *35 I am*, done everything I can to be a pretty normal guy, not impossible, but there are obvious limits. Thankyou Claire for having Jamie on and thank you Jamie, for coming on and talking so openly.

@thisdamnthingy 7 лет назад

Anther Monday, hopefully not too exciting, have a good one.

@AdorkableArtist92 6 лет назад

I have spina bifida too! I was just about to write my own spiel about life with a disability when I spotted your comment lol. @thisdamnthingy, what is your SB type/level, if you don't mind my asking? I have myelomeningocele spina bifida, and my level is L4-L5. I used to walk full-time but I had to start using a wheelchair more and more as I got older and started having joint pain and tethered cord and fun stuff like that. Currently in a chair full-time because I can't wear my shoes or ankle-foot orthotics until 3 (yep, THREE) pressure sores on my feet heal up.

Been watching you guys for awhile on facts and TRY, never knew Jamie had false leg wich speaks volumes about his great charachter. So much more respect for that.

@Jbwynn14 2 года назад

Jamie! I love what you said....be comfortable with yourself! That's so right ❤ Being a breast cancer survivor, I've had to learn that myself. You are terrific, and keep doing what you're doing 👏

@charlesperez9976 3 года назад

That was a brilliant interview. Brilliant! Because of the laughter! Here in America, the focus would more often then not, been on the sort of “oh so tragic, how do you deal with such a condition?” But there in Ireland,no, not a tearjerker spin, just life, as it happens, and the resilience of the human condition, and the laughter of 2 friends just talking!

@JoeSnoe126 3 года назад

Clicked because I fancy Jamie big time and I'm leaving with an even bigger crush. Thank you for sharing! I learned a bit about how much I don't know lol Fun pod, Clisare :D

@Doctor-Stoppage Год назад

I've been watching the Try channel since near the beginning and only heard Jamie mention his leg for the first time in a video I watched yesterday.

@wrcarter4 6 лет назад

Watching from Texas, and a huge facts fan. I would never have known that Jamie was different in any way from the facts vids. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I was born with a cleft lip and palate, at birth my Dad could put his whole thumb on my upper lip and it wasn't there, just gums. In a way, I can sympathize with you Jamie in having such an aesthetic disfigurement. I had to learn to live with it and I was still able to serve in the US Army, and go on to marry an amazing and beautiful woman and have two wonderful kids with her. I love your tats and especially that leg one! I too like I have things on me that help the days get by easier so all of my tats are that way. Sorry for the long comment but all the love.

Well THIS JUST IN?!? Wow, how I love RU-vid's Suggested Videos or else I'd never have peeped these individual vids by the Try Channellers. It's a privilege to have Jamie share this! There's absolutely nothing on the Try Channel, or with Jamie's hilarious Try takes that would indicate it! Cheers, you two!

@juliansreviewtube5120 2 года назад

As much as I admire all the Tryers, I've always felt like if I won some fantasy contest where I got flown to Dublin and got to take part in a Try shoot, I think I'd pair best with Jamie because he's just upbeat and nice and cool as hell, and now after seeing this, I feel like that even more 😄🏆

@azlibra7178 4 года назад

What a terrific dude!😁

@tessyredding5422 2 года назад

This showed up in my feed, so I watched. I love watching you both on try, and of course I watch most everything Clisare. Great share guys, Jamie is my favorite Tryer, that is of course after Clisare 🙃

@johnmartinez1765 3 года назад

You are your own worst enemy. It’s grand the way you felt about yourself growing up. Being comfortable in your own skin is tough and you were so positive. Good job there man. I can’t wait to hopefully meet you guys and everyone from try channel in the next few years. Me and my fiancé want to live there in the next 6 years

Here because ….Jamie!!!!

@TheSledge77 2 года назад

I was born with a disability and am in a wheelchair. I was really big many years ago (muscular) and people use to think that I was in an accident and became disabled. I use to and some times still do get people coming up to me and saying things like "I am so sorry for you" or "it must be so hard for you" before they even know anything about my situation. It doesn't happen as much as I have gotten older but every now and then.

@JanderVK 6 лет назад

I hope you are able to get a cybernetic leg one day (if you wish to go that route of course), I'm seeing such great life changing things with it. Amazing breakthroughs in tech!

@christophercrowder872 2 года назад

Here because of TRY channel, but enjoying this on its own merits. Thank you, Clisare for doing this.

@joevolpe512 2 года назад

I’m a Rehab Physician in the States. Frequently the socket is made of Kevlar nowadays. The post is made of a metal alloy. Yes, there are more high level knee joints available now. But commonly, people who are used to a certain type of prosthesis construction, it’s hard to switch to something new/different. I would say if I were writing the prescription for the prosthesis and the patient did not want the cosmetic cover, fine with me. I had one patient who had Insane Clown Posse painted on it. With LED lights. 😉

@tyrionism 2 года назад

Love you guys! I do appreciate people with an open, really honest and joyful laugh, out of their hearts and with no "artificial flavouring" (being on a camera and The Internet). Most of the time video-recorded people in an interview situation seem distant and "professional" to me, with a nearly frightening screen presence, and totally serious and aware of the attention. But I can see that sitting next to you two, chatting along would neither be awkward nor would I feel terribly like an outsider. I just had to tell you that both of you always just radiate a massively positive mood and have an incredibly open-minded and happy way of dealing with people. That is infectious like hell and might even keep my personal tendency to initially mistrust or have a overly sceptic perception at bay for some time. Keep it up, cheers to Ireland from Bavaria! P.S.: Also, I finally found out about the mechanics of a robot leg like that a bit more, as well as the experience with it in daily use (ahhh, it can be locked, that makes sense!). I think it always was kind of a mysterious device with too many sci-fi references to me :). Thanks for the insights, Jamie!

@webbtrekker534 2 года назад

Don't ever see Jamie standing or walking on the Try Channel so this is all new to me. Had a high school friend who would run around the school track with me when I was practicing. After graduation I went in the Navy and he went in the Army. He was sent to Viet Nam where he ended up being wounded and lost his right leg right up to the hip. The prosthetic was almost useless since there was no stump the move the leg. He just went with out 99.99% of the time. He could go faster with crutches than you can walk. He would travel and go on safaris to Africa and owned a sailboat and sailed extensively. He never let it slow him down. He has sadly passed away a few years ago. Coming up on my 60th class reunion soon. He'll be on that growing list of those not there.

@davinarathbun2693 2 года назад

Jamie, you're so real it's refreshing. Come to Alaska someday and go skiing down world known slopes. Many prosthetic veterans and such get great experiences. I did a lot of night skiing.

@joelove9877 2 года назад

you've made it easier to not feel sorry for you and just look at you as someone who had to overcome adversity. Makes me like you even more and I liked you plenty before I knew the story. Can't wait to see you in your next Try video.

@labattman 2 года назад

@jameskatu6339 2 года назад

Woah I had no idea. But he’s a funny dude & enjoy seeing him on the Try channel

@curtbonnell4308 2 года назад

Watched you guys for quite a while on The Try Channel but this was news to me. You have a wonderful attitude about life no matter what it deals you.

@j.b.booker7912 6 лет назад

Love this. Ive had an issue my whole life that creates the same thoughts as his and ive had to make the same conclusions. The pool part was especially introspective. Nice to hear. Good on you.

@Sunny-jz3dy 2 года назад

This was Fantastic! Thank you so much Jamie for sharing your experience! Not everyone is comfortable talking on Camera about there experiences...good & bad that always go with life! And Congrats on your beautiful boys! They're very lucky to have a father like you that loves them so much! I love the story about your son wanting the Cool robot leg like Dad! Thats Awesome! Clare this is Fab! I didn't know you had this channel too! You are a busy woman! lol. I'm kind of new to all these channels! You have a new Sub on here and one of the other channels you have! lol Also new to Try channel as well. Congrats on getting married....but I think that was a few yrs ago! I'm kind of late to the party! lol.

@Tequilalovesme 7 лет назад

Great podcast and what an awesome dude !

@michaelhogan9053 7 лет назад

Very well done!! Thanks Jamie, I have two friends with fake legs and i always tell them to get a wooden one just to freak people out by stabbing a knife into it! Hey Clare, missing a finger, can I be on the show?

@billgreen7532 2 года назад

You both are very inspirational ❤️

@samiamisme 6 лет назад

Congrats having the courage to get past your fears and getting in the pool. I'm disabled myself and I get what you mean that stuff is always worse in our own heads. And I always say, and try, to jump into life with both feet! Super interview. I found the physical aspects of your leg. I didn't think it was wood, but I thought it would be like a hard plastic, leg shaped. Thanks for setting us straight! Will miss you on Facts. Looking for your channel now. Oh, as an American, I love your accent. It's the Irish I think of when I dream of coming to Ireland. Lovely.

@Banyo__ 6 лет назад

Ever since I saw that video with Jamie rock climbing, I've been a bit curious, so it was really good to hear this interview and his perspective on life with one leg.

@AdorkableArtist92 5 лет назад

Jamie, I have spina bifida. I used to walk with crutches full time but have used a wheelchair full time for a few years while healing from a disability-related injury. I can relate to the "learning to walk" sentiment because whenever I get new ankle-foot orthotics, I walk like a baby deer for like 3 days. I'm awkward and shaky and get tired faster than usual. Many people don't get why it's so hard for me to adjust. I'm nervous about getting back to walking after my injury heals up. It has been a few years now (typical for this type of injury, a pressure sore) and I can tell my legs are getting weaker. Thank you for sharing your story!

@AdorkableArtist92 5 лет назад

Proud of you for getting in the pool and overcoming your insecurity. I looooove swimming but am not a massive fan of swimsuits. I am plus size and have a variety of scars and deformities that are more visible in a swimsuit, but it was SO freeing to stop giving a shit about all that and wear a comfortable suit rather than a big t-shirt and shorts.

@AdorkableArtist92 5 лет назад

and also I'm well-known enough at the wound care clinic (lost count of how many pressure sores I've have since they first started in 2012) that I get away with absolute nonsense no one else would. I can be hella late and wheel in with the coffee that made me late, and they let me take it in the room with me. If I fall asleep waiting for my turn (yay sleep apnea! I can fall asleep anywhere if I'm bored and under-caffeinated enough), they'll just get to work fixing up my bandages gently so I don't have to wake up. I always do anyway but it's sweet that they try. I hear all the gossip from nurses and they've become my friends.

@AdorkableArtist92 5 лет назад

In high school, the basketball coach taught me some really basic aspects of basketball, and I remember one day she was watching me practice and she goes, " your form is better than some of the players on my team!" and I just remember feeling heat on the back of my neck from the death stares of the few basketball players in my class. oooops.

Jamie will be posting the pictures on his twitter he mentioned in the podcast, and the photo of his left leg tattoo is here: instagram.com/p/BSBnDCNAZ59/?taken-by=jamiejaycar

That, is an awesome tat

@kierankern7400 7 лет назад

@ericreynolds74 4 года назад

Here's a bit of irony for ya, as I have cancer of the spinal cord, the damage done from that has left me permanently in extreme pain - mostly down my right leg. So many times have I asked my doctors to cut my leg off and give me a fake leg, so I for one JJC am envious and or jealous of your leg.

@veggigoddess Год назад

Interesting, he made it very clear and one of the tribe videos that he lost his leg with a shark attack so I really shocked that that was a joke because there was no indication he was joking
