A man born with physical disabilities so severe his head is
Upside-down has defied the odds to become an inspirational
public speaker.

Claudio Vieira de Oliveira, 37, was born with his neck folded
back on itself, as well as badly deformed legs and almost no
use of his arms and hands. Doctors told his mother to stop
feeding him as a newborn as they believed he had no chance
of survival. But Claudio from Monte Santo, Brazil, has
overcome his extreme disadvantages to graduate as an
accountant and become a public speaker.

"Since I was a child I've always liked to keep myself
busy and work - I don't like to depend totally on other
people. I do a bit of accounting, research for clients
and consulting. I have learned to turn on the TV, pick
up my cell phone, turn on the radio, use the internet,
my computer - I do it all by myself." he said.
Claudio types with a pen held in his mouth, operates phones
and a computer mouse with his lips and has specially made
shoes that allow him to move around town. His determined
independence saw him succeeding at school and qualifying as
an accountant from the State University of Feira de Santana.
When Claudio was born, doctors told his mother Maria Jose
he would not be able to survive. Maria Jose said:
"People started saying 'the baby is going to die'
because he could barely breathe when he was born.
Some people would say: 'Don't feed him, he is already
dying'. But there's only happiness now. Claudio is just
like any other person - that's how he was raised in this
house. We never tried to fix him and always wanted
him to do the normal things everyone else does. That's
why he is so confident. He is not ashamed of walking
around in the street - he sings and he dances."
At eight years old, Claudio, who had previously been carried
everywhere, began to walk on his knees.
His family had to change the floor of the house so he could
walk around without injuring himself.
Claudio's bed, plugs and lights had to be made lower so that
he could do things for himself without asking for help.
He cannot use a wheelchair because of his unusual shape,
making it hard for him to be independent outside the home -
but he begged his mother to be allowed to go to school and
learn with the other children. Doctors have recently
diagnosed him with a rare condition called congenital
arthrogryposis.
