Why are all the top comments on this video in broken English?

[@lolalina_]

When he's 10 or 15 he will have a cyborg-leg and everybody will find it so cool Just imagine a leg with wich you can play music or idk what haha Don't understand me wrong.. I can only imagine how hard it must be without a leg! But still one day he will outshine us all

[@ianhamilton2723]

Stud.

[@suburbohemian]

AWWW, if I had those curly legs, I would have repeated broken nose injury from catching them on the carpets.

[@labelledamedumanor4876]

How did he lose his leg to begin with? An accident? I'm sure glad he's pulling through. Kudos to the Sports Star for taking the time to help out, he may be training up a future Athlete here.

[@codename495]

Why do you need to know?
