Jamie Andrew: Quadruple amputee on the Cuillin Ridge, 4 kbFollowing an accident on the North Face of the Droites in 1999, Scottish climber and quadruple amputee Jamie Andrew has been inspiring others and pushing his boundaries with ambitious goals, charity work and motivational speaking.

The 47 year-old recently set himself the task of traversing Skye's iconic Cuillin Ridge - with no hands or feet.

Well done Jamie,
You've repaid in kind your own rescue. Of course it was a disappointment but if you saved a life it wa a greater achievement than doing the ridge, however remarkable that would have been. All the best
