Does this mean that most paralympians will be getting their disability allowance taken from them? Just because someone with a disability gives an all out effort for charity does not mean that they can do it every day. Example: a physically able man climbs Mt Everest on 1 day. This man is then required to climb to the summit every day for the rest of his working life, just to earn money to live on?
