On 12 June 2013, Christina Stephens (USA) uploaded a video to her YouTube channel, AmputeeOT, titled "My Legoleg - amputee prosthetic leg made with Lego bricks (legos)". The video sees herself creating a prosthetic leg made entirely from LEGO.

The leg doesn't appear to be functional, due to the nature of LEGO® bricks coming apart easily, however, it has provided an ingenious new look for Christina. As of 17 October 2013 the video has received 1,555,501 views and 10,375 likes.

Christina Stephens' AmputeeOT channel features videos of everyday life living with a prosthetic, after she lost her lower leg last year; including "AmputeeOT: Airline travel as an amputee" and "Yes, you can wear high heels with a prosthetic!"
