I try to see the video, and I cannot see it. Maybe you have a better luck then I do to see what kind device are they using to help him walk.

Paralysis Therapy

ATLANTA (FOX 5) -- A new device is helping a Jackson County father of five get back on his feet. Duane Morrow was paralyzed in a rugby accident more than two years ago, but a medical breakthrough is helping him stand and even walk again. Beth Galvin reports. Click video for more information.

Basically an electric device that's strapped to the outside of the leg to help muscles fire. The video highlights an incomplete quad who has almost all of his movement returned except for one of his legs. This device probably won't be of too much use for many here.
