Nic Walton can fly... and that's not even the best part of his story. Nic was born with a disfigurement in his legs and a surgery to repair them left him paralyzed. He was told he'd never walk again. He told the doctor he would backflip the next time they saw each other. One person got the diagnosis right. Today Nic Walton is one of the most exciting freerunners to follow on Instagram using a blend of incredible physical skill, bravery, modeling, dance, and creativity to create a completely new look to his athleticism.
