I’ve been watching his videos for years. I didn’t even know he was a quadruple amputee when I first found his channel.
He was a consistent content creator that made a ton of vids exploring the history of games and would go through all the platform releases one by one. He was also pretty funny and had a wicked sense of humor.
RIP PatMan QC - you will be missed

Thank you for letting us know about this sad news. RIP PatMan.
Thank you for sharing this. Patman was a delight. He made some of the best “History of” videos for classic games.
RIP Patman QC. He will be missed.
His medical issues reminded me of my father who passed about a year ago. RIP, dude seemed alright.

Wow. I’d self delete if I lost my hands. It takes a special kind of person to keep going like that.

My dumb brain can't figure out what it is in that last scene.

You should watch one of his videos of him bowling. You might gain a different perspective!

Maybe, maybe not. Losing both hands is definitely awful, as there’s so fucking much we do that needs them, but we can manage to regain some utility with prosthetics. No fine control, but enough that your arms and elbow won’t be unused.
Losing both arms, like down from the middle of the biceps, would force you to improvise with your mouth, legs and feet

Yeah, I personally would opt out.
I could manage with prosthetic legs, but for me life wouldn’t be worth it without hands.
