wtf is going on here III?

Remember those gems I was talking about? Almost as fun as searching for the real thing, you dig and you dig through pages of dirt and filth, and when you least expect it you find a small little rock. It takes a keen eye to see the potential for a sparkle. Can you spot it in this page?
No, it's not the fact that Matthis Buchinger is a total BAMF, known for his intricate engravings despite the fact that he had no hands. It's his nickname. In reality, he was known as "the Little Man of Nuremburg." A wiki scholar seemed to think differently.
Wow. Once you start to shine do you really see the true beauty of the gem. I just noticed that this description says he was born with several arms and legs. I suppose that may be true, two of each can technically count as several, no matter how deformed they are. The page today only says he was born without hands, feet, or thighs. BORING. I need to be a wiki scholar just for the fun of misinforming people.
