Meet the Marine Who Lost a Leg and Gained a Modeling Career
Quote:
Ripped, tattooed underwear model Alex Minksy will take your breath away. Not because he's beautiful — he is! — but because his story is heart-squeezingly inspiring.
Three years ago, Minksy was a Marine in Afghanistan went a roadside bomb exploded. He lost consciousness — and lost his leg. After being in a coma for 47 days, Minsky's brain "came back online" and he started the slow journey towards recovery. A drinking problem set him back again, but when a photographer spotted him at the gym and asked him to pose, he stumbled into a new career: Modeling.
"I just want people to look at me and not give up," he says. "To not quit."
Uh, while we're on the subject of things that just won't quit…
He'd actually be hot if his body wasn't mutilated like it is... I mean, WHY do people have to ruin their bodies with such huge ugly tattoos?! One or two small ones are good, but this is just plain ugly

Nice body though and good for him
I almost fell off my chair until I read further.
I think most of the tattoos are sexy but the one on his foot are a little much.
