Bionic limbs are becoming more...human...(surprise reveal!)

harlequinn says...

I noticed the same at the 00:00:06 mark but since the title said there would be a big reveal I figured it could only be double bionic legs.

From my perspective, I noticed his gate was odd but it was subtle enough that I put it down to him being slightly awkward or eager or something.

RDJ helps give a kid a bionic arm

Asmo says...

This line of commentary is not dissimilar to various complaints about RDJ in the original YouTube.

Which kinda misses the nunace that RDJ really has only two things to bring to the table in terms of helping out with the bionic arm program. Celebrity and the attention it brings, and cash...

He could be a silent partner and quietly fund the guy actually building the arms (which is laudable), or he could use his celebrity as a vehicle to build awareness as well.

Now, thanks to him giving up a little of his time, a kid not only get's a kick ass bionic arm but he get's to talk to the guy that plays Iron Man (even though he understands it's not him), and the video goes viral. Even the conversation over RDJ self promoting vs helping out prolongs the exposure of the real hero here, the guy building the arms.

Even if people spent the time to look for programs like this, they wouldn't see even a fraction of the good work that is happening. Having a star use their fame to promote a great cause is a way of getting it noticed. I fail to see a downside, and further, challenge the people griping about it to try and promote a charity or organisation they feel are deserving without star power and see how well it goes.

I'm sure, however, that you could fund an arm for someone. Even lacking celebrity, you could change a life. Do you need cameras to be present before you do a good thing? \= )

Hey! I want to give a kid a bionic arm! That would be amazing to witness, when's my turn. Oh, wait, no cameras following me. Shucks.
