Higher Than Superman

No hands. No voice. No limits.

I’m Shane Agnew — a ventilated quadriplegic and full-time dad on a mission
to break every limit life throws at me.
This is the Higher Than Superman journey.

Support the Mission About Shane

What is Higher Than Superman?

HTS is my mission to live independently, raise my daughter Elsy, and turn every challenge into something powerful.
After breaking my neck at C1 at age 20 and becoming ventilator-dependent and non-verbal, I rebuilt life using technology, creativity, and determination.
This site shares my story, the innovations that keep me going, and the projects that support my independence.
