    • In this video, we observe Ryan Bules attempting to make his bed with the use of only one arm/hand. One can see that it takes a bit longer than normal and he struggles with a few key aspects. The even spreading of the blanket proves to be difficult, while only having one arm also makes it hard to tuck into corners.

    • In this video, we observe Ryan Bules attempting to wash his face with the use of only one arm/hand. It is clear that there are a few obstacles along the way when performing this. It is hard for him to spread out the cleanser on his fingers proportionately, leading to more globs getting to some places on the face rather than evenly spread throughout. He also struggles to fully disperse everything and fully wash it off at the end.
