In fact this was likely a spotting of a rare psychological disordered called Body Integrity Identity Disorder (or BIID), where people believe themselves to be disabled people "trapped" in able-bodies. In some extreme cases, the individuals actually amputate (or force amputation through injury) of the offending limb. These people often "pretend" though, strapping/taping the limbs up to appear disabled or simply using a wheelchair to simulate the experience. (source)
It could also be a cross with "devotees," a weird band of people sexually aroused by disability/amputation.
