Elderly woman continues to rock climb despite losing prosthetic leg
Updated | By Poelano Malema
A woman lost her prosthetic leg while scaling the top of a rock climbing wall, but this did not stop her from continuing on her mission.
Dot may have lost her leg four years ago, but nothing gets in her way of achieving her goals. Recently, while scaling the wall at the Glasgow Climbing Centre as part of the Scottish amputee charity Finding Your Feet’s monthly trip, her prosthetic leg fell off, but the determined woman carried on as if nothing had happened, Metro reported.

"Dot was half way up the wall when her leg fell off and someone managed to capture it on camera. Despite the fact she had lost her leg, she climbed all the way to the top of the wall and then climbed all the way back down. She has such an amazing personality and sense of humour – we love that she just kept going," Charity member Ashley Reid told Scottish Sun.
"I only went along to see what it was all about and I ended up at the top of the wall," Dot told the publication. Below is the video of the incident.
