Vujicic has two small and deformed feet, one of which he calls his "CHICKEN DRUMBSTICK" because of its shape.
Originally, he was born with the toes of that foot fused. An operation was performed to separate the toes so that he could use them as fingers to grab, turn a page, or perform other functions.
