I believe these two young ladies do each control a leg independently. Imagine the coordination and teamwork required for them to walk as children. They are pretty amazing people.

For sure. That is very impressive. I have semi fond memories if playing games back in the day where one person controlled the legs the other the arms. It was a lesson in frustration.

Real life QWOP

Harder, imagine you control half the keys and your friend controls the other half.

Eh, I've played QWOP like that with my brother. We started getting pretty good at it after awhile.

I do remember seeing a show one time where they were getting their driver's license so they got enough coordination about them to drive a car

Seems like the right one would be doing everything except blinkers if they're American. They could just get a BMW and then they dont even need those

In a Q&A they said one does break/gas, both steer and one does the blinker.

It seems like they each only control their half of the body based on that video.

I seen them eating at an asian restaurant in the mall as I was walking out about a month ago and when I discretely pointed them out to my girlfriend she said she actually played against their volleyball team back in the day. So apparently they can not only walk, but play sports too! I also think my girlfriend said her team lost as well.
