Wilt - Page 27 - Never Forgotten: a Foster's Home Community

Wilt can do anything! He's a good dancer, we know that, AND remember in that one episode when he skateboarded down the roof throwing carrots at Bloo, Mac, and Duchess? That was pretty good stuff, the balancing on the roof.
So picture him twirling around on ice and everybody just gaping at him in awe.
Mabe it'd be in an ep where everybody goes iceskating and Bloo tries to show off or something? I wouldin't be suprised if an ep like that were made.
Lol, I'm sure we'd see Wilt break it down on the icefloor then.

I don't know, maybe they might do an episode where everyone goes out to a skating rink or to a frozen pond or something like that. That sort of premise kind of writes itself.

Yeah, I see Tonya and I are on the same page.

That's one of so many great things about Wilt-he's so VERSITILE! He can do pretty much anything-he can fix things, he can clean house(and does so voluntarily), he's a mechanic, he's good at a lot of different sports, besides just basketball, he can do the laundry, he can drive, he can act, he can dance like nobody's bizness...each episode seems to show something new that the Wilt-Man can handle! I'm tellin' y'all, that's most women's dream come true! And what make this all the more amazing, is that Wilt does all these things in spite of having lost and arm and a eye! It never occurs to him to think along the lines of "I CAN'T..."; he just does whatever needs to be done!

Yes, but there HAS to be things he CAN'T do, we all have something we just CAN'T do. XD

scary_dream · 09-24-2006, 10:33 PM

Yeah... I the only thing I can think of that Wilt CAN'T do is applaud... and jeez, he's Wilt - he's probably learned to do that with one hand, too!

Kzinistzerg · 09-25-2006, 07:10 PM

He coudl totally do that... My friend can clap with one hand, so he sould be able to as well.

He can't drive a car with a stick-shift.

EDIT: or a motorcycle. You need two hands for that: one for gas, one for clutch.

scary_dream · 09-25-2006, 09:07 PM

Yeah, now that I think about it, it isn't THAT hard to clap with one hand... but, true, I think driving a stick would be out of the question. Poor Wilt can't drive cool classic cars without some major alteration to the vehicle first

CG · 09-26-2006, 03:37 AM

Wilt can ride a unicycle! No handlebars for those. ^_^; Hand puppetry is probably hard with one hand too. Changing a baby would be hard too I am thinking.

He COULD ride a Ridley motorcycle, which is an American-made V-twin, Harley clone that has automatic transmission. You don't have to shift gears, therefore you don't have a clutch. I got one because I broke my left foot years ago during a fall down a flight of steps, and I could no longer work the gear shift on my Harley Sportster with my left foot. The guys at Orange County Choppers build custom Ridley bikes for people who want/need a chopper with automatic transmission, so maybe they could build one for the Wilt-Man! Hey, if Jessie James can build a custom bike for Shaq, why not?

Wilt could also use a stick shift IF it was mounted on the right side of the steering column, since with his large hand, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to manipulate the shifter and hold the steering wheel at the same time. I can do that, since my old '72 Ford Maverick I drove during my college days had the gears on the column, and I could shift and drive at the same time, with my right hand(which is tiny compared to Wilt's), so I could act "cool" and let my left arm dangle out the window(yeah, I know that is so redneck). Most of the older, classic cars(which I've really been into for some time now)did have column-mounted gear shifts, AND the headlight dimmer switch is on the floor of the car, so you operate that with your left foot, as opposed to modern cars, where it's on the left side of the steering wheel. The only modification Wilt might need would be to operate the turn signal, which is on the left side of the steering wheel even in OLD-old cars, but I think he's got enough stump of that arm left to move the signal up and down, since he can hold or balance light-weight objects with it. There's a teacher at the high school in our district who has about the same amount of left arm remaining as Wilt does(he's a Vietnam vet), and I know he drives a large van with no problems, though I have not looked inside to see what, if any, modifications he's made.

They make right handed turn signals that can be installed into cars and knobs can be installed onto the wheel for smoother turning.
