It's one thing to make people laugh with your crazy antics but to be a world-class paralympic athlete as well? Most people wouldn't even dream of it.

Josh Sundquist is know for two things: his representation of U.S. in the Paralympic Ski in Slalom (where he dressed up as a gingerbread and a pirate) and for being able to produce wacky and somewhat original costumes (he dressed up as a leg lamp once time).

This year, the CNN "Hero of the Year" in 2007, is dressing up as a rather bright pink creature - a flamingo. Points for effort and creativity!
