It's an unfortunate reality of the world that it is nowhere near as accessible for disabled people as it should be.
However, thanks to some truly innovative and dedicated people out there, steps are being made in the right direction to help wheelchair users to enjoy the activities that had previously only been available to their able-bodied counterparts.
Case in point, this husband, who designed an off-the-road wheelchair for his wife so that they can go on adventures together.
This incredible feat of engineering was made by Zack Nelson - better known as JerryRigEverything on social media - who has made a name for himself online with his whacky, cool creations.
Nelson made the wheelchair for his partner Cambry Kaylor, who makes regular appearances on his YouTube channel, so that nothing could hold her back on their adventures after she was left paralyzed from the waist down by a 2005 equestrian accident.
Prior to tying the knot in 2018, Zach came up with an idea of putting a seat in between two electric bikes. It was then that they began to create the electric, adaptive off-roader: The Rig.
This creation wasn't a one-off for Cambry either, and the incredible Rig is now available for others to purchase too.
In an interview with Bored Panda, Zack said: "The toughest challenge when developing Not-A-Wheelchair is the price. We wanted to create something that is affordable for everyone.
"Finding quality components, and a simple enough design at the cheapest price possible took quite a bit of time.
"But I think we have something now that everyone will be able to enjoy, at a fraction of the cost of other 'off-road wheelchairs' currently on the market."
A single chair with a battery can be purchased for $4,750 and extra batteries can be purchased for an extra $700.
The Rig also comes in a number of colors including black, white, red, green, pink, blue, and dark green.
In the video below, the couple introduces the off-the-road wheelchair:However, it is worth noting that using the wheelchair requires "upper body strength and hand strength to maneuver… just about as much strength as it takes to operate a normal pedal bike. Also, coordinating the throttle, brakes, and steering does require full cognitive and decision-making ability," according to the website.
The chair isn't loud either, meaning that Cambry can still talk to other people while using it without feeling like it's interrupting the conversation.
The Rig can reach speeds of as high as 12mph, and it has a range of between 10 to 20 miles.
"Our whole goal is to provide something that is capable and affordable," the website adds.
Zack, however, has designed more than one thing for his wife and previously created his wedding ring using titanium from Cambry's first wheelchair.
In an earlier video, Cambry said: "I love it. I think it's super unique. And I thought when I first started dating that my wheelchair would deter people from dating me. I never thought it would be something someone would want to put in their wedding ring."
