John Hopkins Noel 1924 Olympic Gold Metal

For those who didn't read the link concerning his prosthetic hand, it is worse than that and pretty incredible. He lost part of the fingers of his right hand when a gun exploded (so must have been a failure in the breech section) and his left hand was "torn away" when a gun discharged while crossing a fence during a hunt.

It's been on there a while Drew I see that a familiar name to me "Jake Gibbs" was the High Professional but I haven't been able to pick him out from the photos on line.
