A man named Anthony Loffredo is truly obsessed with the dream of radically changing his appearance in order to “turn” into a “black alien”.
He has already cut his tongue, cut off his nose and ears, covered himself with tattoos and piercings, and recently decided to cut off two fingers from each hand to obtain three-fingered palms.
The 33-year-old Frenchman says he has achieved the desired transformation by only 34% and that he still has a lot of work to do.
In early 2021, he removed his upper lip, and in general, he has been remaking his human body into an “alien” one for about 10 years. Loffredo is not afraid even of such dangerous operations as an eyeball tattoo. Previously, both ears were surgically removed.
In search of surgeons who would agree to such operations, Loffredo traveled to many countries. For example, he traveled to Spain last year to remove a nose, since in France such operations are prohibited without medical indications.
He also had multiple implants placed under his scalp that reshaped his skull and cheekbones.
Loffredo maintains an Instagram account called the Black Alien Project, which has nearly 800,000 followers. His last photo with his fingers cut off was titled “I Find Peace of Mind.”
His questionable and too risky body modifications are often shared by his followers: some scold him while others praise him for his courage.
One person wrote, “It’s both disturbing and exciting at the same time. I don’t think I can do it, but I like you for living your dream.”
Another commented, “Congratulations on the progress of the project. It’s incredibly great.”
“This is a clear disrespect for those who, unfortunately, have lost their limbs and are looking for ways to function as the human body should,” wrote one critic.
“In the end, you will 100% regret it,” added another.
In 2017, Loffredo said in an interview with the French newspaper Midi Libre that he was fascinated by the mutation and transformation of the human body from a very young age.
“I had a” flashback” when I was working as a security guard. I realized that I was not living the way I wanted to. I left everything at 24 and went to Australia.
When I returned, I already had a clear plan for how “to sculpt” this out of myself and I started the main work.”
At the same time, Loffredo announced that he plans to become a “bodymoder” – a specialist in physical body modification, specializing in eye tattoos.
There have been multiple doctors (and multiple hospitals for that matter) that have participated in this effort.
Is it ethical for a medical professional to amputate the healthy ears, nose, lips, and fingers of a person?
Yes, people have a right to live their lives as they want, but that doesn't mean it's ethical to participate in the mutilation of their body.
If doctors will do this to a man's body, what won't doctors do? Is there any line they won't cross today?
He will know he has succeeded when government agencies dissect him.
1. Sicko!
2. Whatever happened to “First, do no harm”?
The only thing I would have done differently would be to have my middle and ring fingers fused together instead of cutting off the ring and pinky fingers.
Otherwise, perfect!
Will he be swimming in the NCAA?
This man should be committed and the doctors imprisoned.
I blame the welfare state for this. He could not do this if he had to work.
If we have “doctors” who will do that to a man, where do we find doctors who will say you got the current shot du jour when that does not necessarily completely correspond to the truth?
This is one sick MF’er!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, if you can cut off your wee wee and say you are a woman or cut off your breasts and say you are a man, why not this?
Carnival sideshows are gonna love this guy.......
I always look for neck tattoos when selecting a doctor.
Guy is really little different than ANYONE who falls for this extensive “body remodeling” fad. There’s no difference between alien-man and some gal who sees the plastic surgeon several times a year in a quest for “perfect” beauty. Having worked in the past for plastic surgeons, I would advise anyone even considering something as simple/ordinary as a nose job to think twice or three times before undergoing the procedure - unless your nose is messed up to the point of your not being able to breathe through it, and even then you should think twice, as one of the possible complications of nasal and facial surgery is SPINAL FLUID LEAK. Infections are standard; alien-man is probably full of antibiotics, steroids, etc, every day of the year.
Doctors are people, too, and often they are sh1++y, irresponsible, immature people who unfortunately have medical degrees.
The whole idea of socialized medicine arose in part because of this fact, i.e., a lot of doctors are not very nice people and have little facility for ethical thinking - being government employees will “force” them to be “nice,” right?
ALEX, I’LL TAKE A LEGION OF DEMONS FOR $100 DOLLARS...
The scariest part is not the man who wants to do this — it’s the medical people who happily take part in mutilating him and encouraging his mental illness.
For once I hope there are aliens who, when they arrive, will kick his a#@!!
Meanwhile therapy to switch from being gay to straight is outlawed?
Hi mother didn’t hug him enough. This guy is obviously looking for attention.
The 33-year-old Frenchman says he has achieved the desired transformation by..........................
33 year old Frenchman. That says it all.
I think the goal here is to eventually get to the point where one’s genes can be modified so as to make the traits acquired surgically inheritable. Then ‘body modifiers’ will have become their own species.
