If you are anything like me, which if you clicked on this post then I'm sure you are, then the strange, weird and damn right crazy of this world fascinates you.

In today's topic, we are going to look at the top 3 people who took body modification to the extreme of extremes and have permanently changed their bodies, face and even eyes for life!

Before we get into the first case, if you enjoy this kind of content please follow me, comment below some improvements I could make to help improve my posts or even up-vote this post, it really does mean a lot to me!

So, Let's begin!

1 - The Lizard Man!

First on our list, we have the Lizard Man! As you can see from the photo above he has had some serious work done on his body. His name is Eric Sprague and has been described as a pioneer in the body modification movement.

He has undergone over 650 hours of tattooing, had five Teflon horns subdermally implanted above each of his eyes to form horned ridges, had four of his teeth filed into sharp fangs and had his tongue bifurcated.

So, how much did this all cost? Although he has not officially kept track of all the work he has had done, and many of the sessions have been free or at a reduced cost - Eric believes it all the work would have cost around $250, 000 at full price! - that is a very expensive hobby!

The big question, is he finished?

The answer is no, believed it or not!

He has said that someday he wants to complete his tattooing and other planned procedures. And, as new technology is developed he plans to be able to incorporate new ideas to take his body modification even further with the advances in technology!

2 - The Vampire Lady

Maria Jose Cristerna is the Vampire Woman Of Mexico. As you can tell from the photo above, she is a hardcore vampire fanatic. There is something about her modifications that draws me in, looking at the photo above the result of her body modification is truly astonishing.

So, what work has she had done?

Maria has had her body covered in tattoos, head to toe. She has had specialised dental work on her teeth to give them a fang-like appearance but, her most impressive modification is the titanium horns inserted inside of her head!

Maria grew up in a deeply religious family in Guadalajara, Mexico, one of the most gang crime filled areas in the country. She has is a mother of 4 and now often gives talks to women who are suffering from domestic violence.

3 - The Stalking Cat

Dennis Avner was a veteran of the U.S. Navy who went under numerous body modification operations to transform himself into a cat. Unfortunately, Dennis was a troubled man and was found dead at his home in Tonopah, Nevada, on November 5.

Dennis Avner worked as a computer programmer and he often appeared at Ripley’s Believe It or Not! events that take place around the world.

All of Avner's body modifications were done by artist and body modification pioneer Steve Haworth. Some of the modifications included head, nose, and brow implants, and silicone cheek, chin, and lip injections. His ears were sculpted to make them more pointed, and the lobes relocated to make them more elongated.

He also had his clip cleft to mimic that of a cat and his septum of his nose relocated to appear more cat like. In addition to this he had 18 piercings located above his lips so he could attach whiskers!

The photo above shows a before and after Avner's drastic body modifications.

So, what do you Steemie's make of these people? I would love to know what you think down in the comments.

Take Care,

Back Soon
