Thirty-two-year-old Georges Exantus thought he'd never dance professionally again after the earthquake in Haiti three years ago took his leg. But thanks to a prosthetic leg, he's back doing what he loves, whether it be the salsa, cha-cha, or samba.
This is Georges Exantus. He lives in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. This is his bedroom.

It was three years ago that the devastating 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti's capital. It flattened George's apartment, burying him under rubble. He spent three days trapped in the wreckage.

Doctors had to amputate his leg below the knee. He now uses a prosthetic leg to get around.
