If we truly want people of all sorts of disability to participate in sport – then we should add more categories to different sports?
Such as…..
- Electric Wheelchair synchronised swimming
- Wheelchair ski jump (Winter Paralympic games)
- wheelchair steeple chase

Additional comment: Before all you politically correct, ultra sensitive and easily-offended trolls get on your high horses, I work in disability and have many friends who have severe disability and are wheelchair users. We had a good laugh over discussion like this.
There is a BIG difference between making fun of people with disability and having a laugh ABOUT disability.
Wheelchair ski jump, now THAT I would like to see.
But you forgot to mention wheelchair 20 metre platform diving.
OK then, how about who can tap out the most words in a minute on a keyboard, using only their mouth & a pencil
besides the ELECTRIC wheelchair synchronised swimming i think they should add them
What about a Paralympic event with a religious theme? You could measure how far people who are crippled throw their crutches after they have been healed.
