After losing his left leg,Texas firefighter gets chance on NBC’s ‘American Ninja Warrior’

Gary Weiland vowed that his leg amputation wouldn’t be his end. The Denton firefighter went in for partial knee replacement surgery in 2018, where complications during the operation resulted in the decision to amputate his left leg to save his body. And just like that, Weiland’s entire life changed. “I made the decision pretty early on that this wasn’t going to beat me,” Weiland said.
