My husband lost both his hands below his elbows many years ago. He wears the same type of prosthetics. Do you ever replace the rubber parts on your hooks? Hubby is hard on his so that rubber wears first and he has to replace the hooks about once a year. I'm quite handy and work on his hooks when it's something I can do. If you have an at home solution to that please let me know. Thanks so much for your video!

I met a man for a blind date. He didn't tell me he had a prosthetic. I'm an engineer. I was enthralled to see him use it. Unfortunately, he ran when I asked him how it worked. I'm so sorry for him. Thanks for this video. I just wanted to know how it worked. And to those who have one: please tell someone before you meet them.

What is the strength of the prosthetic (grip strength/ability to lift weight?) Im just curious as to how this would compare to a standard human hand. Is the gap between human and prosthetic strength; durability, and articulation closing at all? Thank you for your time sir.

Sean, thank you for a very clear explanation of the body-powered hook. I googled this information and got a lot of gobbledy goop medical crap about what it was... but not how it worked. I'm in the middle of writing the biography of Jim Taylor, double amputee golfer. (you can find his short video here on KZbin). I'm at the chapter where the prosthetist is fitting him for his first body-powered hook and I wanted to describe clearly how it works. Jim got his first B-PH when he was 10. His second one on his right arm he got when he was 11. For the explanation of the compound unit (left is below the elbow amputation, the right is above) I'll have to go talk to the prosthetist up at the Shrine Hospital. Writing this, and knowing Jim, I'll never swear at my arm braces again. Thanks again for a great video and helping others to understand.

Hi Sean, Nice vid. I was surprised that you use 4 -5 rubber bands at a time. I typically use no more than 2. I am using three now as the neoprene is really worn on the hook. It sounds like an idea I might play around with, but my concern is the wear and tear on the cable. How often do you need to replace the cable? Perhaps having more rubber bands located in that spot as opposed to closer to the tip balances everything out in a way that the cable breaks less? I would love to have a stronger grip on a regular basis as opposed to adding a rubber band every so often to do certain things. You have me curious. I may try it, but your feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

Actually, it may not be a good idea for me in my situation because I use that arm powered prosthesis for everything. Watching your videos it is my understanding that you use other prosthetics that give that particular prosthetic a break. Unless it's a question of equal tension balance or something that would keep the integrity of the cable together longer? What are your thoughts? It just seems like I need to get my cables replaced more often then I care to and sometimes they break with no apparent warning. . Thanks.

I use a heavy duty cable and have not had any surprise failures. when I see signs of fraying at the distal end I replace the cable. Average cable life is about three years.

@@theguywiththehook Thanks for your reply. I will need to ask my prosthetist if he uses a "heavy duty cable" or not. I think he does and he showed me that he covers it with teflon or something to reinforce it. I go through at least two cables per year. Sometimes I get a warning with some fraying of the cable against my skin and sometimes I don't know it's coming. I use the arm powered hook exclusively. I am wondering now if putting on those extra (more than 2) rubber bands at the point in the hook closest to the wrist like you did will make a difference. It seemed that when I put one closer to the tip for special activities it would cause more stress to the cable than near the wrist. However, since I first saw your video about a week or so ago until now I used 3. It worked pretty well. Today I am trying 4. My journey started because the Neoprene seems to wear out very quickly and the grip doesn't grip as well as when I first get the hook. THANK YOU!
