US paralympian Josh Sundquist: KL club bouncers 'stole' my crutches

In the video "Security gang stole my crutches", he claimed that bouncers took away his crutches while he was dancing with his wife.

Sundquist, who was in Malaysia to give a motivational talk to youths about volunteerism at iM4U's Reach Out Convention and Celebration 2016, said he recorded the video in the city after a night out clubbing with his wife, Ashley and other speakers.

"I stood on a platform in the middle of the club. It's a scary thing to stand on a platform with one leg, with crutches. As a teenager, I used to feel so insecure about it.

"I pulled Ashley up and we were dancing, did some spins. People in the club were cheering for us. People were excited to see me, an amputee who's up and about, not afraid to look a little different but still have a great time in a club," said Sundquist in tears.

The 32-year-old, who hails from Virginia, said he did not know why his crutches were taken away.

"They didn't offer any explanation. As soon I got off the platform and gotten back my crutches, we walked out the club."

"I can’t move"

"For a person with disability without crutches that means I'm immobile. I can't move. I can't walk.

"It's funny because you're a motivational speaker where the point of your speech is, 'I got one leg. I have gotten used to it. I've accepted it', but 12 hours later at the club I discovered that the pain still runs really deep," said Sundquist.
