Jim Ewing has been an avid climber most of his life. He would injure his foot during a climbing trip in the Cayman Islands. After realizing amputation might be the best route to regain some mobility, he would connect with Hugh Herr, a biophysist at MIT and would undergo a radical new amputation, now known as the Ewing amputation. All of this is the subject of Augmented, a feature documentary that premiered this past month on Nova PBS. Jim is back to climbing so we chat with him about this journey and the documentary.
