Leg injuries didn’t stop Djaniel Carter from walking the runway

Djaniel Carter, from Arizona, suffered the injuries after years as a professional dancer, and has been battling a condition that makes it difficult for her to walk and stand. But that didn’t stop her from taking centre stage and she was wheeled down the runway by the publication’s editor, MJ Day.

Judging by the pictures, she loved every second of it. Djaniel danced with her arms above her head, her legs slung over the side of the wheelchair beaming every second. At the end of the runway she briefly stood to strike a quick pose for photographers before returning to her chair.

Sports Illustrated Swimsuit shared the incredible moment in a clip on Instagram and fans have been commenting with messages of praise and support.

‘After several years as a professional dancer, Djaniel sustained traumatic injuries to both of her legs and has been battling an underlying medical condition that has yet to be diagnosed,’read the caption.

Despite the fact that she has a weakened ability to walk and stand, she has not let that stop her from pursing her dreams.
