Sang Lan, known as the "Queen of Vault," was paralyzed at the age of 17 and later claimed $1.8 billion in compensation. Here's how she is doing now. Born in Ningbo, Zhejiang in 1981, Sang Lan started practicing gymnastics at a young age and entered the national team at the age of 12. Her talent was evident to all, and at 16, she won the national vault championship, earning her the title of "Queen of Vault."

Standing at 2 meters and 3 centimeters tall, although not particularly robust, he quickly stood out in the team with his excellent physical fitness and flexible on-court reactions.
