Kenneth Easterday (December 7, 1973 – February 12, 2016) was an American man born with the rare disability, sacral agenesis.
The first amputation surgery took Easterday's shin bones, which were used to replace his missing spinal column.
At the time of Easterday's first amputation surgery he was only expected to live six months to one year.
[3] Easterday gained some notability following the 1988 release of the Canadian movie Kenny (1988), in which he played a fictionalized version of himself.
He was also the focus of a 2010 TLC special[4] titled The Man with Half a Body.
