Paraplegic Mom Learns to Surf in Inspiring Video

Pascale Honore's mobility was mostly confined to a wheelchair after a car accident left her unable to use her legs.

But the 50-year-old mother from Australia has found a unique way of catching waves — by duct-taping herself to her son's friend, surfer Tyron Swan

“Both my sons surf, so I always have gone along to watch and I’ve always loved the water," she said in a video posted to Vimeo. "I was always talking about how good it would be to go surfing and one day, a friend of my son said ‘You know what? I think we could tape you onto my back and take you out there.’”

Now that they've conquered the waves, what's up next? The pair has already gone diving with great white sharks, and hopes to go touring and camping on the coast of Australia
