When picking out the perfect Halloween costume it is important to remember to dress for your body type. Yes, you can be anything, but people may have a hard time figuring out your costume if you look wildly different from what you are trying to portray. Clothing can only take you so far. We've seen plenty of soon to be moms mold their costumes around their round bellies in the funniest ways. From bowling balls to avocados, there always seems to be some sort of clever new pregnant costume for the season. 

But this guy's clever use of his body takes the cake for Halloween swag.

Josh Sundquist was diagnosed with cancer at age 9 and lost his leg shortly thereafter, but he's never let that stopped from doing anything. For example, in 2006, he represented the USA in the Paralympics. Less impressive, but just as interesting, is that each year he embraces having only one leg and makes the perfect Halloween costume. He's got so many great ideas that we can't even pick one of our favorites.

It started in 2006 when he went as the Gingerbread Man from Shrek.

He took a break after that but he came back in 2012 as the lamp from A Christmas Story. This ones good.

Then in 2013 he went as a flamingo while also showing off some impressive upper body strength.

The following year he went as a Foosball Man. 

With this year's Halloween costume, I'm really trying to raise the bar.

In 2015 he went as an iHop sign. (That actually hopped!)

HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN 👻 6 days • Throwback to 2015. What I love about this video is that at first you think it's just a sign. Like, where's the costume here? And then I hop away and you're like ooooooh now I get it • ALSO: If you swipe right you'll also find my 2014 costume. I dressed as a foosball player in 2014 because that was the first year I was playing in an international tournament with the US Amputee Soccer Team. So it felt appropriate. Because, if you think about it, amputee soccer is basically human foosball.

We'll have to wait another year to see what's next but I, for one, am excited to find out.
