Thinking Question 3

Please watch the four videos (links below-Don’t worry they are short) and read the short article associated with video #2.  In a minimum of 500 words, answer the prompt.

Prompt: 

Using advancing technology, will amputees surpass able-bodied athletes?  If so, should they be allowed to compete against able-bodied athletes, or should they be required to have their own competitions?  Is this different from doping?  What about integrating tech into able-bodied athletes beyond shoes or voluntarily removing limbs to accept new tech?  Where does it stop? Should it stop? Will athletes be replaced by robots?  What do you think?
