Romario dos Santos Alves:
This real life body builder from Caldas Novas, which is a Brazilian
municipality in the state of Goiás, has muscles the size of that old
green superhero, The Hulk. Children routinely stop and stare at his
gigantic muscles which for this 25 year old, father of one is an
everyday occurrence. He gets these muscles from an injected steroid
cocktail, and many hours of working out. You don’t want to cross this
Hulk wannabe, but I’m sure he doesn’t get as angry as the green one from
the Avengers movies.
Gary Turner: This man’s
nickname is “stretched” because he is able to stretch his loose skin so
far that he can create a surface area able to hold three glasses of
liquid. His unusual condition does have a name, and it’s Ehlers-Danlos
syndrome which causes his skin tissue to become loose, and weak over
time. At 41-years-old he has starred in the “Circus of Horrors” side
show, and says that pulling on his skin or hanging things from it
doesn’t hurt at all. It’s quite odd to see this rare disease in the
flesh, and only affects 1 in 10,000 people.
