Man Turns himself into Zombie and is perplexed to find that some people don’t understand him
Anthony Loffredo, who calls himself the “black alien,” removed his ears, nostrils and even a few fingers; sharpened his teeth and dyed them purple; and covered his body in extreme tattoos. Now the Frenchman says he’s found one space where he can’t come in peace.
“If I want to eat at a restaurant, sometimes the server says I can’t eat on the terrace,” Loffredo, 33, recently told LAD Bible.
While some alter the size of their figure or inject fillers into their face, Loffredo’s body modification is out of this world. He revealed that he was miserable living in a body he didn’t belong in, finding new self-confidence from people who have reportedly told him that his appearance makes them “feel more secure” with themselves.
“It’s a fight every day, because every day you find new people who don’t understand, who want to judge. It’s life, not everyone understands everything. Like me, I don’t understand lots of things about lots of people,” he told the Club 113 podcast last year.
“You can’t judge someone. No one knows what’s inside someone’s head, why they’re doing that, you need to talk with this person,” continued Loffredo, who swears he’s just a “normal guy” with a family and friends.
The challenges haven’t stalled his passion for body modification — he claims he’s ready to take the leap with leg amputation.
“It’s something really hard because I have a healthy leg, and an amputation is something big,” he explained about the difficult surgery.
No more difficult than the surgical removal of genitals or implantation of an artificial womb, surely. Come over to America, Anthony, and I’m sure the Boston Children’s Hospital can help you realize your dream of being the person you know you are.
Meanwhile, further east, there’s this:
The unnamed man asked Japanese special modelling company Zeppet to make the suit for him, spending a staggering three million Yen (£18,800) to transform into the grey-furred predator.
The anonymous customer with the four-legged aspirations wrote on Zeppet's website: 'Because of my love for animals since childhood and some realistic animal suits appearing on TV, I dreamed of being one someday.
'At the final fitting, I was amazed at my transformed self in the mirror. It was a moment when my dream came true.'
The Japanese company Zeppet usually provides costumes and figures for TV commercials and films.
The company said that for the incredibly intricate wolf design, they studied images of the predators so that they could match every fine detail.
The mystery client was overjoyed with the final outcome of his order, praising the specialised company for their craftsmanship.
He said: 'My order to 'look like a real wolf walking on hind legs' was difficult – to say the least – but the complete suit looked exactly like what I imagined.'
'Not only did the specs perfectly cover all of my preferences, but the ventilation slit for the wearer's comfort and the devices that let the wearer put it on without help showed me that the designers paid close attention to the wearer's comfort.'
This is not the first time the Japanese company has fulfilled such a peculiar order, having previously made international headlines with another of their creations.
Last year another Japanese man has similar aspirations of becoming a four-legged animal.
The man, who identified himself as Toko, spent two million Yen (£12,500) on a dog costume.
