Being in a wheelchair isn't the end of the world.

Unless of course, your wheelchair happens to look like a scene straight out of the post-apocolytic movie "Mad Max: Fury Road."

Ben Carpenter is a seasoned cosplayer and engineering student from Florida born with spinal muscular atrophy.

For the Tampa Bay Comic Con, Carpenter decided to spruce up the appearance of his chair by giving it an epic "Mad Max" makeover.

Carpenter clearly put a lot of work into his costume, and the final product looked like a spitting image of the scene with Mad Max and Nux the War Boy.

Take a look at the pictures below to see Carpenter's badass wheelchair.

Carpenter is wheelchair-bound due to spinal muscular atrophy...

Recently, Carpenter transformed his chair into an epic costume inspired by the movie "Mad Max: Fury Road."

Carpenter's elaborate wheelchair even had a chariot attached to the back driven by his friend Amy.

...and people went nuts over his insane "Mad Max" chair.

In fact, his costume was such a crowd pleaser, he even won best group cosplay.
