Knox Gibson

Knox Gibson is a young boy from Orange, New South Wales, who enjoys sports such as soccer, rugby, swimming, and cricket. Knox is the son of Kate and Jack, and the younger brother of Hamish and Arabella. Knox appeared in a Kmart toys television ad in December 2016 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.



 

Knox's parents describe him as "extremely confident, headstrong, driven, independent, and mischievous." Knox also has a limb difference, since he had his right arm amputated below the elbow when he was four years old due to a severe accident. Knox is also a promising musician who has been learning to play the drums as a result of his love for AC/ DC's songs. He wears a prosthetic arm for certain tasks such as getting dressed, riding his bike, playing cricket, skipping rope — and playing the drums. Knox has been undergoing occupational therapy at the Westmead Limb Clinic since his injury to ensure he is getting the most out of his prosthesis.
