LYNWOOD, MA (KCPQ/CNN) - Despite having no legs and only one arm, Kayla Wheeler is a 16-year-old swimming phenomenon who continues to shatter world records.

Kayla was born with three congenital amputations. And as a form of therapy, a doctor recommended swim lessons.

Now the high school junior holds the Paralympic world record in the 50-meter butterfly. She's competed in Mexico, Brazil and the Netherlands.
