Jessica Cox: Embraced Her Differences and Became the First Pilot to Fly with her Feet
August 12, 2011
Jessica Cox was born into this world without arms. Instead of allowing it to place her in a life of victimhood, Jessica decided to embrace and celebrate her difference. She learned to swim, drive a car, fly an airplane, surf, scuba dive, and live independently using her feet in ways others who take their hands for granted can only imagine. Jessica also earned two black belts in tae kwon-do and a bachelor's degree from the University of Arizona. She is the first person without arms to get a black belt from the American Tae Kwon-Do Association and holds the Guinness Book of World Records title for the first pilot to fly with her feet.
