PEOPLE YOU WON’T BELIEVE EXIST

The Pierced Man

German native Rolf Buchholz is really just a normal 55 year old man, except for the fact he holds the world record for the most piercings on a body. Whatever floats your boat, Rolf!

Papa Smurf

Paul Karason’s skin turned blue 17 years ago after he used colloidal silver to treat a skin condition. The FDA banned silver in over-the-counter meds as it causes argyria, which causes the silver to react with sunlight turning skin a dark blue. Karason passed away from a heart attack, unrelated to his condition, in 2013.

My Size Barbie

29-year-old Valeria Lukyanova was the first to start the “Human Barbie” craze when she began posting photos of herself on the internet and shot to fame. The Ukrainian model insists her looks are 100% natural, except for breast implants. Valerie’s look requires plenty of upkeep including daily gym sessions and special diets. In 2014 she began practicing Breatharianism which, supposedly, allows the individual to live on light and air alone. It did not work.

World’s Hairiest Man

China’s Yu Zhenhuan is officially the world’s hairiest man. With 96% of his body covered in course black hair, he never needs to worry about bringing a sweater along in case it gets chilly.

This Buxom Lass…

If you couldn’t guess by the photo, Mayra Hills has the largest breast implants on the planet. The German adult model known as “Beshine” claims she is a size 32Z and denies having any back problems. She’s 27 now. We bet she’ll be singing a different tune at 40…

Most Tatted Woman

96% of Julia Gnuse’s body is covered in ink. She began getting tattoos to cover up a skin condition, and she didn’t stop! She is recorded as the most tattooed woman in the world.

Most Tatted Man

If you thought Julia Gnuse was tatted, Lucky Diamond Rich currently holds the world record for most tattoos with ink covering 100% of his body. He has tats on the inside of his eyelids, his mouth even his foreskin. We think he looks pretty cool!

Widest Hips

Mikel Ruffinelli’s husband hit the jackpot when it comes to curvy women. His wife sports the widest hips in the world, measuring 8 feet all the way around.

Steroid Men

This is a breed of body building we could all probably live without, but then again, where would guys like this go? Anabolic steroids can be super helpful for healing injuries, but in small doses. When used religiously things like this can happen…

Steroid Women

Men aren’t the only ones jumping on the steroid train. Women who choose to use the same enhancers as men often don’t realize that the female body requires much less of the steroids than guys need to achieve their looks, resulting in what you see here. Maybe everyone should just stick to whey protein.

Edward Giant Hands

From the time he was born, Kaleem’s mother knew he was different. He came out of the womb with hands twice the size of a normal infant, and they never stopped growing! Unfortunately the 9 year old’s hands now weigh more than his head and make accomplishing simple tasks extremely difficult. Doctors are unsure what has caused such an effect in an isolated an area.

Swan-Like

Beauty is truly in the eyes of the beholder. Women of the Kayan tribe in Burma wear brass neck rings from a young age in order to achieve the giraffe-like aesthetic considered to be a sign of beauty. The coils don’t actually elongate the neck itself, but force the collar bone down and compress the rib cage to suggest length. As to the tradition’s origin, there are many theories. From emphasizing their femininity and resemblance to dragons (popular in Kayan folklore) to protecting the women from slavers and tiger bites, regardless of the actual reason, these ladies are pretty remarkable.

Bottom Heavy

Mandy Sellars was born with a rare genetic mutation that causes her legs to grow at an alarming rate. In 2010 one of her legs needed to be amputated above the knee because of a blood infection, but even after the operation the leg continued to grow! The stump alone weighs about 42 lbs and has a 3 foot circumference. Mandy doesn’t let her condition get her down, though. She maintains an independent lifestyle and even calls herself a “part-time TV star” because of the many shows she’s been featured on. You go girl!

Tallest Man In The World

31-year old Sultan Kösen from Turkey measures in at 8 feet, 3 inches making him the tallest man alive.

Shortest Man In The World

That’s right! Here is the tallest man in the world meeting the world’s shortest man, Chandra Bahadur Dangi. The 75-year-old man from Nepal is 1 foot, 7 inches tall.

The World’s Smallest Woman

You may recognize Jyoti Amge from American Horror Story: Freak Show, but did you know she really is the smallest woman in the world? Her restricted height (2’1″) is due to a growth anomaly called achondroplasia.

Largest Man

Known as the “half-ton man,” Patrick Deuel tipped the scale at 1,126 lbs at his heaviest.

Largest Woman

The world’s fattest woman, Charity Pierce, got up to 765 lbs at her heaviest. However she recently rushed to lose 200 of them in order to wed the man of her dreams. If love doesn’t motivate you to lose weight, we don’t know what will.

World’s Best Moo-er

Like our Videos...

Moo-ve over, cows, there’s a new sheriff in town. Austin Siok was just 10 when he entered the Wisconsin Moo-a-palooza contest and won $1000, beating out 80 other contestants. (Watch the video to see his mad skills!) That’s right, this kid got a grand for mooing like a damn cow. He’s also taken home prizes at state fairs all over the country, including a cow print jacket, a years’ worth of free subs and a golden cowbell. This guy is going places!

Strongest Man

Žydrūnas Savickas is a Lithuanian powerlifter and professional strongman. If you don’t want to call him by his impossible-to-pronounce given name, feel free to call him by his nickname “Big Z.” He’s the only modern strongman competitor to have won every single strongman competition he’s entered. Big Z set the record for dead-lifting at 1155 pounds!

Longest Dreads

“I am a very proud and gifted empress queen. I am the black Rapunzel.”
-Asha Mandela

The Atlanta woman and native of Trinidad has the world’s longest dreads at over 19ft.

Two Heads Are Better Than One!

Abigail and Brittany Hensel are two remarkable women. As conjoined twins they each have their own head and set of internal organs, but since they share one body each twin controls one half of it. Though each girl can read and write simultaneously, it takes a bit more coordination to achieve tasks like running and driving.
