Bizarrely Berserk

Human beings are the most amazing of all God's inventions, don't you think?
But there are some who can't help themselves for being 'weird'. I don't really believe in labeling them as 'freaks' because that is just not right.

So here I would like to share with you guys a little something on some of the most bizarre people in the world.

Lotito : Mister-eat-it-all

Michael Lotito is a French entertainer and is famous as the consumer of indigestibles and so he was widely known as Monsieur Mangetout ( Mister-Eat-It-All ).
Some of the things that he ate was metal, glass, rubber, bicycles, televisions and a Cessna 150! That is an airplane people!!It took him 2 years to eat the airplane.
He does not often suffer from any ill-effects due to his diet. Apparently, he has a stomach and intestine walls that is twice of the expected thickness, and his digestive acids are allegedly powerful, which allows him to digest a certain portion of his metallic meals.


Nakamatsu : Photographed and analysed every meal for 34 years

Yoshiro Nakamatsu is the Japanese inventor claiming to hold the world record for the number of inventions which is over 3000. He has been photographing and analyzing every meal he has consume during a period of 34 years and still counting. His goal is to be able to live for 140 years.


Mehran : Lives at the airport since 1988



Mehran Karimi Nasseri is an Iranian refugee who has been living in the departure lounge of Terminal One in Charles de Gaulle Airport since August 8 1988. Nasseri was reportedly the inspiration behind the movie The Terminal.


Bhagat : Had his twin brother in his stomach

Sanju Bhagat's stomach was once so swollen that he looked like he's nine-months pregnant. Dr Mehta thought that Bhagat had a tumour in his stomach, so he performed an operation to remove it. While operating on Bhagat, Dr Mehta saw something he had never encountered. As he cut deeper into Bhagat's stomach, gallons of fluid spilled out - and then something extraordinary happened. First, one limb came out, then another limb came out. Then some part of genitalia, then some part of hair. 
At first glance, it may looked as if Bhagat has just gave birth. Actually, Dr Mehta has removed the mutated body of Bhagat's twin brother from his stomach. Bhagat had one of the world's most bizarre medical conditions - fetus in fetus. It is an extremely rare abnormality that occurs when a fetus gets trapped inside its twin. The trapped fetus can survive as a parasite even past birth by forming an umbilical cord-like structure that leaches its twin's blood supply until it grows so large that it starts to harm the host.
