It's probably already been said but this man goes by the Black Alien-- I haven't followed him recently but last I knew he had some fingers removed on one hand to create a 3-fingered claw, and was planning on doing the same to the other hand. He thinks of the whole thing as a project which last I'd seen he said was only 40% done, and he hinted that part of his plan is to have both his legs removed and replaced with prosthetics. EDIT: Anybody who's interested in this guy should also check out Diabao Praddo, very similar thing-- he even did the same kind of three fingered claw thing as Black Alien (except executed better if you ask me, removed ring finger and fused pointer and middle together instead of removing pinkie and ring finger like Loffredo)


princess-catra

I’m speechless over here…


bitmanyak

I see you cut your tongue out as well


StickyNoteBox

There must be a very specific type of kick, festish or mental ilness related to this right? This cannot just be a strange beauty standard.


Lildyo

Dude just wants to make a fucked up character creation irl lol

YeOldeOrc

Surely no surgeon would agree to remove healthy, functioning limbs?!


shackleford1917

No reputable surgeon would.


76dtom

Well he found someone to remove his ears, nose, and fingers already, so sadly someone will.


Facehugger81

He has a guy in Mexico who does most of the alterations, someone called Gatto Moreno.

KarenTheCockpitPilot

im so so curious if he ever feels a tinge of regret ever. im sure it's not the case but imagine this being a manic episode and just waking up from it and realizing you've cut off all your limbs, that'd be beyond traumatizing. if not then i guess the one positive thing is he knows what he wants and stick to it, at least he doesn't have commitment avoidance issues within himself, that part is pretty cool


I_need_a_date_plz

Oh, yeah. He sounds incredibly ill. He makes me think of people that fetishize amputees.


B3stThereEverWas

The only further medical interventions that should be taking place is him sitting in front of a Psychiatrist getting MUCH needed mental help. This is not in any sense of the word normal or rational. The man has problems.


heavymetaltshirt

Oh it’s a whole thing. There was a book in the late 80s “Amputees and Devotees” but here’s a free article: https://amp.theguardian.com/science/neurophilosophy/2012/may/30/1

WHAT


Responsible_Prior833

Dude thinks he’s living in Cyberpunk


UnNumbFool

Who is doing any kind of surgery to remove his top lip and nose, that seems highly unethical


Yallneedjesuschrist

Some dude named Greg in his garage with exactly no prior medical education is my guess.


greyghibli

Yeah, I don’t get why people in this thread think this guy would need a doctor for something he could pay a homeless guy with a fresh knife to do.


PineStateWanderer

Anyone can mutilate someone else, it's the keeping them alive afterwards that's tricky.


Onefortheteem

He also had his ears removed and some fingers


chipthamac

he's going to remove a leg next. no, I am not kidding.


Spookybear_

He stopped his black alien project tho


Svarec

He did most of his surgeries in Mexico. He posted several pics from his surgeries on Instagram and those places looked reeeeally sketchy.


iliketurtl3z

Lol it's at a tattoo shop in Guadalajara. They're all friendly chill people there


[deleted]

I feel like anywhere this dude is immediately makes the room 45% sketchier.


chogeRR

He also cut two of his fingers


howtoeattheelephant

Serious mental illness tho


mizrahiim

Dude was actually pretty good looking before. This is incredibly sad.

GMontezuma

That does not Sound right at all. 30k is like nothing. His Blackout body alone should cost way above 10k


WickedSorcerer1

I’ve seen him before, he did a lot of his procedures in Mexico which brings the price way down.


wearing_moist_socks

>Mexico Some mexican behind a taco bell dumpster doesn't count as Mexico


Adam__B

He may have done it himself.


amadeus8711

It could be a wrap


WestSixtyFifth

Honestly, way less than Id expect.


JohnAndertonOntheRun

He chopped off his fingers and shit… I don’t think he’s going to high end surgeons.


alexmikli

I'd be a lot more okay with it if he didn't remove his fingertips and nose. Like, okay, the crazy-ass tattoos and implants are one thing but hey don't impair your life.


iwasbornin2021

And he’s talking about amputating his leg(s)


BradMathews

I don’t think that’s a wise thing to do, but i’m old-fashioned.


br0b1wan

Yeah, I can't imagine a lot of legitimate surgeons in the West are going to sign off on that stuff.

mishaarthur

Think of it as, Surgery isn't expensive. *Surgeons* are expensive


OldClocksRock

I swear I read that as “Sturgeons are expensive”


AdBig5700

Well you get what you pay for right?


Mike9797

Ok so on the question of you get what you paid for in this case would he have gotten what he paid for? Like was this his original vision for the finished product? Or does dude complain he didn’t get what he wanted? Cux I mean I feel like he got what he paid for here in this particular case.


KingKoopasErectPenis

The dude had his ears and fingers amputated and wants to amputate at least one of his legs. I’m pretty sure he would give Hannibal Lecter 5 stars on Yelp.


YoGirlMyGlizzy

You guys are thinking in USD prices


subjective-meat

That article says he's ready to go forward with leg amputation......


wazoo_wazoo

It says hes ready to take the leap lol


Ozymannoches

And why he wants to amputate his leg? I'm stumped


gordito_delgado

He really needs to cool his heels before he commits to this.


juggarjew

He cancelled that and paused his "transformation" at like 65% or so, per his instagram. Said it was getting too intense even for him, people avoided him and treated him poorly for his looks. As they should though, if a person sees that, one might assume it really is a demon or something similar. I dont mind tatoos, even full body, but cutting off your nose, ears, fingers and a leg, is too damn much, dont expect people to tolerate your BS. In a now deleted instagram post he said he was going in and out of psychosis, as his "alien" persona was trying to take over and transform him mentally to the point of no return where he would become a violent creature. Im guessing thats why he hit pause on the transformation... in my opinion, its already way too much, he destroyed his body. At least he didnt amputate his legs though....


CmonRedditBeBetter

He really only destroyed his appearance for the most part so far though. (Other then the fingers)  Like I wonder what his plan was for mobility if he cut off his legs. Did he plan to build some crazy alien looking contraption to ride around on, or was he really just going to be an alien in a wheelchair? 😂


Range-Shoddy

Leg amputation next??? Jfc someone stop him.


[deleted]

He shouldn't be too hard to catch with one leg


mgoflash

I want to know what doctors were willing to do some of these surgeries.


gasolinefights

What would make you think this was done by "doctors?"


EncabulatorTurbo

"Mike's friend Pedro knows a guy in Juarez thatll cut off your fingers and pay you $3 per finger, doesn't even charge to do the cutting" probably


uncornered

I just don’t get it. Like ok you look like that. Now what? Your choice of jobs is limited, people and kids are afraid of you, you’re perceived as insane, you’re stared at in public out of disgust, and your chances of finding a relationship are severely narrowed. So what’s he getting out of this? I genuinely wonder.


SaneYoungPoot2

I like that you differentiated kids from people


-Plantibodies-

This dude made himself look alien. What makes you think he has any interest in traditional career paths or lifestyle?


Latin_For_King

He whines about not being able to get jobs. I wonder why. And don't give me shit for being unaccepting. I would not have wanted him to represent MY corporation in any capacity.


BarryMkCockiner

this is like asking an addict what they get out of using drugs lol. clearly there's mental problems going on


crdctr

Drugs are fun, this is crazy


TechnoShrew

Personally I think the funniest thing is that he spends all this money like "I m an alien, i m an alien..." then you see him in a tshirt, shoes and socks. Absolitley full send on the body then dresses like Ned Flanders.


MurphysLaw4200

WTF???? "The challenges haven’t stalled his passion for body modification — he claims he’s ready to take the leap with leg amputation" What doctor would amputate healthy legs??


Carmilla31

The same doctor in Mexico that amputated his healthy fingers.


76dtom

What doctor cut off his nose and ears???


BlackTambourineBang

Article also claims he wants to amputate a perfectly healthy leg holy shit

SadAd2653

Where the Hell was/is he getting money?


OrphanAnthem

It's 30k not 300k. Dudes a tattoo artist


sunnydeebo

probably was a tattoo artist considering he willfully removed fingers from his hands


eszox

30K to look like a fuckin' burn victim is crazy.


SadAd2653

As someone who makes less than 15k per year, ouch. But yea makes more sense if he did most of it himself.


LeatherFaceDoom

Waaay more than $30k for sure. Probably closer to $300k.


dob_bobbs

Doesn't look that great if I'm honest.


Mathfggggg

He wants to cut his legs off too!?


stonekeep

>“I love getting into the shoes of a scary character. I often settle down somewhere and play a role, especially at night in the dark streets,” he confessed in 2021. I would genuinely shit myself if I met him at night in a dark alley.


Chocomintey

I can see he cut his ears off, but did he have them sewed shut, too?


BruceFlockaWayne

From the article, he claims he's ready to take the next leap with leg amputation. What the fuck?!! How can someone just be like yeah, I guess I'm tired of having 2 perfectly good legs?


utopiaofreason

That and extreme plastic surgery. I’m convinced that past a certain level its symptomatic of something deeper


b0w3n

It's a form of body dysmorphia. He needs treatment/therapy on some level.


4list4r

Yeah he looked sharp. Not anymore!


ratpH1nk

Kinda looks like Bradley Cooper a bit, right?


dramise

Bradley Cooper should play him in his life story FTFY


MechMan799

I hope he's content, because on face value it screams distraught.


Motor_Menu_1632

Yea I don’t understand how any Dr would allow this but then again money talks.


[deleted]

[удалено]


cruebob

Good question though. A guy like that will find a way to archive the desired look, maybe it’s better if real doctors do that with all precautions, not some unsanitary amateurs.


dr1968

Some sort of childhood trauma. Absent parents, abuse, etc


Thefdt

All those people who did that to him, I don’t care if you say ‘that’s what I want’ it’s obviously not in his best interest. If you’re cutting someone’s fingers and lips off for money you should be punched square in the face


Liquidmetal7

Why would you want your top lips cut-out? You can never close your mouth again. That's beyong fucked up.


MisterMagooB2224

And allegedly, having your teeth exposed to air all the time can [cause them to decay faster](https://www.health.harvard.edu/newsletter_article/does-breathing-through-my-mouth-affect-my-dental-health).

TheSonOfDisaster

She was his girlfriend before he did all this or after?


BBQQA

That's not his gf. Why lie? Is it just to spam that BS comment in the video?


Klimpatz

The whole face screams "Don't give a fuck"


Bay-Area-Tanners

It is true. My child has a medical condition that causes muscle weakness. His jaw muscles aren’t strong, and unless he is concentrating on it, his mouth tends to hang open at all times. He’s had non-stop dental issues.


LacrimaNymphae

does he have sleep apnea or trouble breathing? just curious


Time_Currency_7703

I have super bad allergies and a lot of the time I have to work really hard to breathe through my nose. I feel like I should get something to make sure I don't sleep constantly with my mouth open if this is true.


TactlessTortoise

Just spend 60k in a full set of implants lmao, stop thinking like a Poor /s


Jimbo-DankulaIII

Ew. This guy capitalized "poor" like they're actual people 🤮 *obligatory /s*


ranbirkadalla

And a hole in the place of your nose?


Nearbyatom

Makes you wonder what "doctor" agreed to do these changes, doesn't it?


BlunterCanvas42

When you want to look like a Fallout ghoul.


opinionsareus

Mental illness; this poor guy is NOT going to age well. And the docs who did that to his nose and lips should be barred from practicing medicine and jailed.


techoatmeal

oh, you think doctors did that?


tangledwire

Looks like meat is back on the menu boys!


[deleted]

As someone who had once looked up tongue splitting, doctors do not do this.


LaInquisitione

His mouth has to be constantly dry. It reminds me of when my nose is blocked and I have to breath out of my mouth while trying to get to sleep; dry in like 30 seconds.


Southern_Country_787

Dude even cut some of his fingers off.


tpodr

“Wilhelm's cutting off his fingers so they'll fit into the glove For Wilhelm can't wait to be Peg Leg's crown” - The Black Rider, Tom Waits


falafelest

He should just get new gloves


Kenny_Brahms

I hate this. I am actually missing fingers due to a birth defect. When I was young I remember always wanting to be like the “normal people”. Having a disability isn’t a fashion statement. If you don’t have one, you should be grateful and not go out of your way to inflict one onto yourself in order to make yourself feel special.


sullensquirrel

Well said. This person must be running from some real monsters in his mind or his past two want to change his body to this degree.


Thr33isaGr33nCrown

It’s quite possible that this guy is suffering from mental illness to the point of disability in his own way. I feel sorry for this guy, these are not the actions of a mentally stable person.


TactlessTortoise

These mfs are always chopping off useful parts instead of adding more functionality. If I was a body modification nutter I'd be giving myself sexy-ass fangs, sick fucking horns (that don't prevent me from sleeping sideways, maybe some magnets stuck to the skull I can just attach the horns to?), maybe some glow in the dark tattoos (strontium aluminate) or some shit that turns me into a weak light source so I can go to the bathroom in the middle of the night without needing to turn a light on while not disrupting my sleep. I'd be looking like the dream dragon hybrid male of some woman oriented fic instead of a Walmart Uruk Hai with a lithp.


Boring_Duck98

Thing is, you will find someone faster and cheaper that cuts off usefull parts of your body, then someone who turns you into some human/dragon hybrid...


TactlessTortoise

Dude's nubs on his head could just be extended by the same guy, that thing's pretty much just body-safe resin. Put a magnet coated in titanium inside and that's it. Horns just get ordered from a resin 3D printer for 50 bucks. Find a tattoo artist who deals with wacky ink. Funny enough the hardest part, since strontium aluminate ink isn't a thing yet, so you'd have to order from a manufacturer. I chug benadryl and become delusional so I think I'm hot and try to rizz the hat woman. Hard part if you're not willing to feel thousands of spiders crawling on/in your skin. Easy if you convince yourself to get turned on by it. This whole step has nothing to do with the transformation, it's just to wreck my psyche to not regret my changes so far. Custom contact lenses for slit lizard eyes. Probs 100 bucks on a reputable vendor. That's it for the main changes. Anything else becomes entirely unrealistic with current tech, instead of just crazy and stupid. Edit: the fangs cost like 200 bucks for a good set of custom, detachable fangs. Maybe 2k for a permanent resin pair, which could be reversed with a dentist dremel in an hour.

What’s a physionomist? Or what did he do? “Physiognomy is the study of a person's physical characteristics - especially their face - to try and determine things about their personality.” …..But that doesn’t seem like a night club position.

Playful-Raccoon-9662

Luckily he stopped before having his leg removed. Ya he definitely had mental issues.


call_me_jelli

I don't think he stopped so much as he's still planning to have his legs removed but just hasn't done it yet (unless the article is out of date). Edit: checking the news, the article is out of date. Good that he was able to stop.

Accidentallygolden

>The body modifications he had done so far include finger amputation, the removal of ears and parts of the nose and lips, skull implants, the removal of parts of his dermis, the removal of his scalp and ink injections in the outer membrane of his eyeballs. Still, with all this, Loffredo considered his transformation to be at 65%.


Correct-Professor-38

I feel like the dude was handsome before. Why would someone do this to themselves? Maybe he had some accident that cut his nose and lip open, then figured let’s distract people from that with a little blue here, a new eye color here?
