Did you ever hear about that man who went through numerous procedures, along with having various extreme body modifications in an attempt to look like his beloved cats? Well, now we’ve got a man on the same level who is working with his body and what he has in an attempt to look as much like a parrot as possible.
The man has also tattooed his face and in an attempt to look more like his beloved parrots, as well as having implants put underneath his skin. These implants are fairly common in the body modification world and tend to be silicon or other substances placed under the skin so that it appears as if you have a certain shape protruding from underneath your skin.
The man has appeared on the Jeremy Kyle show to defend what he’s done to his body, claiming that he likes the way he looks and wasn’t that bothered about his ears before cutting them off. Alongside the ear procedure, Ted Richards has also has his tongue split, has screw in horns that protrude from his head and is currently searching for a surgeon who will be willing to turn his nose into a beak.
I must admit that after seeing him on the Jeremy Kyle show, I have warmed to the man entirely. After being trotted out to essentially be gawked at by people who believe he’s weird, he charmed everyone with a healthy sense of humour, able to laugh at himself while taking on board other people’s opinions. It really is just his choice what he wants to do with his body and has nothing to do with others. All the best to him.
What do you have to say about this man? Do you think that anybody can do what they want with their body as long as it doesn’t impact on anybody else? Or, is this just a step to far? Should somebody have stepped in before it got to this point? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below so we can see what the consensus is on this man’s extreme choices.
