This is Jessica Long on the red carpet at the 2009 ESPY Awards. Long is the Michael Phelps of paralympic swimming. Only hotter. And probably smarter.
Jessica's legs were amputated when she was 18 months old, according to Wikipedia. But she played many sports as a youngster, and at the 2004 Paralympic Games, at age 12, won three gold medals in swimming. At the 2008 Paralympic Games, she won four golds plus a few more medals. She currently is the world recordholder in 15 swimming events for paralympians.
