No! OK, perhaps if you have some kind of disability that prevents you from standing, but otherwise you can walk.

Actually yeah, I showed this to my wife. She has EDS so her knees, ankles and hips can without warning dislocate when walking. She said she'd enjoy this — if a dislocation happens she can sit to recover. Otherwise she currently must risk a dislocation and potentially fall or use a wheelchair.
