[www.keralites.net] Blind South Korean archer sets first world record at the 2012 London Games.

 

Im Dong-Hyun legally blind South Korean archer sets first world record at the 2012 London Games.

Im Dong-Hyun cant see short distance. That qualifies him as legally blind in sporting archery.

His problem means he cant see your face even if you are standing right in front of him.

He tends to fall over and stumble. But that didnt stop him from setting a new world record even before the opening ceremony took off in London.

He shot 699 for 72 arrows in the mens individual ranking round, pipping team-mate Kim Bubmin who notched 698 both bettering the previous mark.
