PUT YOUR LEGS ON! IDF AMPUTEE, HERO & INSPIRATION, BORIS SHTONDA

130 min • 13 december 2024

In this episode, recorded on December 12th, 2024, I sit down with IDF veteran, amputee and hero, Boris Shtonda, whose leg was amputated as a result of a catastrophic injury he sustained inside the Gaza Strip following the October 7th massacre. 
Boris tells me about his career in the IDF elite counter-terror unit, Duvdevan, his work as a close protection officer where he guarded over Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, Vladimir Putin, Former Head of Mossad Yossi Cohen and others and how his life changed after October 7th. 
Hearing the news of the Hamas rampage while on vacation in Japan, Boris flew home, joined his unit, was injured and began his journey back to a functioning and fulfilling life. 
He shares what Judaism says about amputations, what he feels are his next missions in life and his ambition to make history by climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro. 
It’s an incredible story bound up by his credo…that whatever life throws at you, always “PUT YOUR LEGS ON!”
