Cornel was born in Romania with no forearms and severely deformed legs, given only days to live.

But he beat the odds and is currently studying philosophy and theology at Keble College in Oxford.

Along the way he discovered he really loves playing the drums. And despite he has no arms, Cornell totally rocks on drums. Want proof?

Watch this video of Cornel rendition of DJ Fresh's Hot Right Now for instance:

Comments Cornel:

"Basically, I'm a disabled drummer and thought I would give youtube a go."

It's not the first time that Cornel gets credits for his drumming: he was one of the finalists in UK's Young Drummer of the Year competition in 2007.
