This Girl Born Without A Full Arm Created A Prosthetic That Shoots Sparkles
The “glitter cannon” is part of her superhero powers, she told BuzzFeed News.
Jordan Reeves, a spunky 10-year-old girl in Columbia, Missouri, was born with a left arm that ends at her humerus, or just above her elbow.

But instead of building a traditional prosthetic at a design event for kids without limbs, Jordan developed a "circle shooter" or "glitter cannon" that shoots sparkles.

She calls the device "Project Unicorn" and says it is an essential part of her superhero alter ego, Girl Blaster.
"I just like the look of sparkles and how shiny they are," Jordan told BuzzFeed News. "And I like unicorns because they're magical and awesome."
