Some of us complain about walking to the bus stop in the snow; some complain on a hot summer’s day, but from Nick Shortridge, who is paralyzed from the chest down, you hear no complaints.

In fact, the Facebook user, and now personality who has taken social media by storm in the last few days, is running his own YouTube channel devoted to inspiring people by showcasing his passion for truck driving despite his injury.

We did this video to motivate and also to show how a spinal cord patient transfers to a vehicle, in this case a big dumptruck.

It started on March 29, when Shortridge posted the brief clip after requesting his wife, Vimary, film his daily process of getting into his work truck.

In his newly created public figure Facebook page, Shortridge writes: 

“This has been designed to help inspire people that life is all in what you make it. I live by a quote that I wrote. My situation is your inspiration!”
