The human body grows and develops in accordance with the genetic program that is embedded in DNA. This molecule consists of genes through which protein is produced. He serves building material for all life on Earth. Each gene, to put it simply, is responsible for a specific organ. These are the heart, kidneys, liver, brain, skeleton, etc. etc. They all begin to grow and develop in the womb of the mother’s body. At the same time, the process of their development follows a clearly established pattern.
Genes scrupulously adhere to a certain program, guide cell division, and, in the end, a child is born. little man. He has a head, arms, legs, eyes and other organs necessary for normal life. Very often, children grow up to be beautiful men and women with ideal body proportions. Such bodies are pleasing to the eye and evoke a feeling of admiration. Humanity owes all this to DNA.
It would seem that it is necessary to erect a monument to this molecule, which gives people the joy of life. But one should not over-praise the complex biological structure. She's not as perfect as she seems. Sometimes a systemic failure occurs in a molecule, and the development of individual parts of the body deviates from the given programs. In this case, creatures appear in the light of day that are absolutely different from the people around them. Freak people - that's what they've been called since time immemorial. Physical abnormalities bring untold suffering to deformed people, but it is impossible to help them. Science still has very little knowledge to on our own correct the functioning of genes.
Such perfect human bodies are born thanks to the precise work of DNA
From this we can conclude that the Supreme Intelligence that invented DNA at one time was by no means distinguished by conscientiousness and responsibility. These guys obviously cheated and did such a responsible job in bad faith. A person can only state the facts of ugliness and meekly endure the marriage of hacks.
The only reassurance is the thought that this is for the time being. Genetics will soon go far ahead, and people will eventually learn to correct the mistakes of others. Our descendants may even reach the Higher Mind. They'll kick these guys' ears or take off their belts and fatherly whip them in their soft spots. But this is a matter for the future, we will turn to the past and talk about clearly expressed ugliness, which has always aroused in people a feeling of great curiosity mixed with compassion.
Hairy people
Doctors call increased body hair “hypertrichosis.” This is when a person is covered with hair from head to toe. They do not grow only on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. It is especially unpleasant when lush vegetation covers the face. The most famous person with such deformity was Jo-Jo. He was born in St. Petersburg in 1868. His name was Fyodor Evtishchev.
Jo-Jo or Fedor Evtishchev
Thanks to the hairiness, the boy with early years performed first in Russians, then in French circuses. In 1884, the famous American showman Phineas Taylor Barnum (1810-1891) drew attention to him. The young man went to America and received the pseudonym Jo-Jo. He traveled all over the United States, performing as a humanoid dog. The cunning showman told everyone that he was given birth to by a woman who became pregnant from a German shepherd. Fedor died in 1904 from pneumonia while on tour in Europe.
Freaks are not only found among men. A terrible and terrible burden falls on fragile women’s shoulders. An example of this is Puerto Rican Priscilla Lauter. Actually, the Loters lived in the United States. They adopted the girl in 1911, paying decent money to her parents. The child's entire body was covered with long black hair. On the face only the nose, cheeks and forehead were devoid of hair. For the Loters, who worked in the field of circus attractions, the ugly girl was a real find.
Priscilla with her adoptive father Carl Lauter
In addition to being hairy, Priscilla had two rows of teeth growing in her mouth. However, this did not bother her at all. The deformity did not affect the intellect. The child was exceptionally smart. He enjoyed it with the audience wild success. Before Priscilla’s performance, the venerable Karl Lauter sincerely assured the audience that she was given birth to by a woman who had had intimate relations with a large ape. Of course, the master was a little disingenuous, but it was necessary to somehow stir up the interest of the jaded public. To confirm the invented “legend,” Priscilla performed on the circus stage only with monkeys.
One very rich and eccentric American woman wanted to adopt a girl. She cherished the dream of crossing her with a monkey. But the Loters were not flattered by a large amount money and refused the lover of exotic experiments. Priscilla married a circus performer who also had a deformity. The young man’s skin on his body was covered with large scabs, and he portrayed an alligator in front of the audience. God did not give this couple children, but they lived a long and happy life together.
Giants and dwarfs
History knows quite a few people with very small and large stature. These are also freaks, because they turned out this way as a result of a genetic failure. In the old days, all monarchs kept dwarfs in their courts. Short men and midgets were believed to bring good luck. For more than a thousand years, this public enjoyed a favorable situation. They lived quite well near the royal table. If they also knew how to make people laugh, they became favorites of the reigning persons. Jeffrey Hudson is considered the most famous of all dwarfs.
The little guy got eaten at court English king Charles I (1600-1649). His height was only 75 cm in adulthood. As a child, he was 15 centimeters smaller, so he was often placed in a large cake and served to the table. Guests surrounded the confectionery miracle, and then a tiny man jumped out of it, like a jack out of a snuffbox. For those who did not know, this had a stunning effect.
Little people in a big world
Geoffrey was very loved by the queen. Naturally, the kid took advantage of this. He behaved impudently and defiantly with the courtiers. One day the dwarf considered himself insulted by the marquis and challenged him to a duel. The kid had his own sword. It was made for him by order of the queen. With this miniature weapon, Geoffrey managed to wound the Marquis several times in the thigh before the soldiers arrived in time to separate the brawlers.
Human freaks of enormous stature are no less popular. Ancient historians cite astonishing figures. For example, the same Goliath had a height of 2 meters 90 centimeters. Many researchers who adhere to the alien version of the development of human civilization believe that Goliath was not a Philistine, but a representative of an alien race. Let it be so, but besides Goliath there are enough other giants who are in no way inferior to him in size.
You can name Orestes, whose height reached 3 meters. This is the son of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra - the sister of Helen the Beautiful, because of whom the Trojan War broke out. The alien version will no longer get through here, since sister Iphigenia was a giant. The same beautiful girl who they wanted to kill to appease Artemis. The young creature's height did not stand out among other girls. Thus, if Orestes is an alien, then why is Iphigenia so small?
Let's leave ancient Greek mythology to the conscience of historians and turn to the ancient Romans. They, too, could boast of huge human monsters. Judging by the memoirs of Josephus (37-100), who wrote the famous work “The Jewish War,” very tall slaves lived in Rome. Among them, one named Eleazar stood out especially. His height reached 3 meters 30 centimeters. But this giant was not very distinguished physical strength. He was long and thin. But he ate for three. In competitions between inveterate eaters, Eleazar always won everyone.
It is believed that tall directly depends on the leg bones. The longer the legs, the taller the person. Moreover, the length of his body does not differ much from standard sizes. Giants rarely have great physical strength. The real athlete was a giant named Angus MacAskill. He was born in Scotland in 1825. Until the age of 13, he was an ordinary child. Then it began to grow rapidly. At the age of 21, his height was 235 cm and his weight was 180 kg. It was a mountain of muscle without an ounce of fat.
Naturally, the huge strongman performed in the circus, earning good money. He lifted weights, amazing the audience with incredible strength. But even an old woman can have trouble. MacAskill once bet $1,000 that he could raise sea water ship's anchor. He weighed almost 900 kg, but the money was very good, and the mighty giant got down to business. The giant lifted the anchor, but in the process injured his spine. I had to give up the circus. Already disabled, MacAskill went to his homeland, where he died in 1863.
Robert Wadlow with his older brother
Robert Wadlow is officially considered the tallest man on the planet in the entire history of civilization. This is an American who lived in Mississippi. He died at the age of 22 in 1940. The young man weighed 220 kg with a height of 267 cm. The cause of death was not high growth, but simple blood poisoning. The guy cut his leg, which led to his untimely death.
Fat people are freaks
Fat people are also ugly people. But not ordinary fat people, but immensely fat individuals. For them, basic physical actions seem like a whole problem. Even to walk across the room, fat people need to make a lot of effort. American Robert Earl Hughes belongs to this company. He lived in Indiana and left this mortal coil in 1958. His weight was 468 kg with a height of 178 cm.
This man could not move. In order to sit, a special chair was made for him. He slept on a special bed. Its frame was welded from steel corners. The mattress was placed on a steel sheet welded to the corners. When Robert was taken to the hospital, they had to order a crane and a forklift. The cause of his death was excess weight, which is not at all surprising.
Fat freaks were not uncommon in other states of America. A similar situation was observed with Johnny Ali, who lived in North Carolina. He was born in 1853 and at first was no different from other children. When the boy turned 11 years old, he developed a voracious appetite. The child began to rapidly gain weight. By the age of 15, he could no longer walk through the doorway to leave the house on the street. At the age of 16, the young man switched to a semi-recumbent lifestyle.
He spent all his time at home, sitting in a special chair. He slept in it, since he simply could not move onto the bed, and his family were not able to drag his huge body back and forth. Weight young man reached 509 kg. This data was obtained after Johnny died. During his lifetime, no one weighed him, so as not to create unnecessary problems for themselves.
The young man died in 1887 at the age of 33. The reason for this was basic human stubbornness. Johnny tried to get up from time to time so as not to feel completely inferior. This time too, he managed to lift his huge bulk from the chair and headed to the window of the room to admire the world around him. The floorboards could not withstand the enormous weight. The floorboards broke and the poor guy fell down. There was a basement underneath the room, but Johnny didn't fall into it. He was stuck in the hole, his legs dangling helplessly.
Relatives and neighbors began hastily building a wooden platform so that the fat man could rest his feet on it. But while people were working, the young man could not withstand all the shocks and died. A huge body was pulled out of the basement with the help of horses. At funerals they also used artiodactyls and special blocks to lower the coffin with the deceased into the grave.
Freak people with two heads
Such monster people also appear sporadically, putting eyewitnesses of this phenomenon into a state of superstitious horror. In 1953, a two-headed baby was born in Indiana. He lived for several weeks. One of the heads was completely normal. The other had a mouth, eyes, ears, but there were no glimpses of intelligence on her face. The heads grew from the same body, but each moved, slept and ate independently of the other.
Much earlier, in 1889, also in the state of Indiana, a creature was born, which in official medicine is called the “Jones twins.” They had a common body, but their heads were directed in opposite directions. The “twins” had 4 legs, and each two were fused with each other. The body had two arms. It seemed that right hand obeys the orders of one brain, and the left - another. The Jones Twins died in 1891.
Infant with two heads
In 1829, a freak with two heads was born on the island of Sardinia. Each head “sat” on a long neck. The body was shared with two arms and legs. The parents gave the child the name Rita-Christina. The family lived very poorly, so the father and mother took the two-headed creature with them to Paris and began to show it to a curious public for money.
It all ended with the authorities banning such an immoral event. Parents abandoned Rita-Christina in an unheated room in the winter and went home. The child died very soon from hunger and cold. Doctors opened the small body and made sure that, apart from two heads, there were no more paired organs in it. The skeleton of the unfortunate child is still kept in Paris today.
History knows a man with one head, but two faces. This is Edward Mordrake. He lived in the 19th century and was a representative of an aristocratic English family. His second face was located on the back of his head. It had muscles, so it could smile, frown and even laugh. But most of Over time, the face bore the stamp of gloomy doom. The owner of two persons could not bear such a burden weighing on his psyche. He went crazy and ended his life in a mental hospital.
Freak people with one eye
The first one-eyed people were the Cyclopes. Their only eye was located on their forehead. We know this from ancient greek mythology. Whether these monster people actually lived on earth or not is unknown. But medicine is well known to a black man named Nikolos. He lived in the first half of the 20th century in Mississippi. In the center of his forehead was a normal-sized human eye. There were no eye sockets as such. These places were completely flat, covered with skin. Eyebrows grew like all normal people.
Representatives of the circus business promised this man fabulous money. But he never came out circus arena. Nikolos led farming and tried to avoid people. He felt comfortable only among animals. Nikolos was very fond of dogs, which did not care about the lantern that their owner had one eye. The one-eyed American did not start a family and died quietly alone in the 60s of the last century.
Conclusion
Thus, it is clear that from time to time the DNA molecule produces amazing biological masterpieces. Freak people amaze humanity with their appearance, while experiencing unspeakable mental suffering. Even if they earn a lot of money performing in the circus, this is unlikely to provide them with moral consolation. Many of them would agree to live in poverty, but have a normal human appearance.
Nowadays, when the ecology leaves much to be desired, abnormal deviations in people are becoming more common. These are no longer flaws in the work of the Higher Mind, but the irresponsible activities of individual representatives of the human race. So it is still unknown who needs to be “given the belt” - the mysterious humanoids who invented DNA, or the owners of huge corporations that are gradually and steadily turning the human race into terrible mutants.
The article was written by Alexey Zibrov
When a person wants to stand out from the crowd, he is able to radically change his appearance: he dyes his hair in green, covers his entire body with bright tattoos, makes piercings in unimaginable places, surprises others with abnormal modifications, etc. Of course, any individuality must be respected and accepted. In this article we will talk about individuals who bear the title “The Ugliest People in the World” (you can see their photos below).
Denis Avner
Looking at this man, many are convinced that monsters still exist on the planet. Everyone knows this man under the pseudonym “Hunting Cat.” He ranks first on our list and, by the way, is the winner of the “Most ugly man peace." What is so extraordinary about his appearance? Yes, almost everything! Denis has such extraordinary modifications as numerous tattoos, sharp claws, sharpened teeth, and facial implants. However, that's not all. People are surprised how a person can decide to undergo surgery in order to radically change the shape of his ears, split his upper lip and create a tiger tail. Now, hardly anyone will be surprised that Denis is the winner of the “Ugliest Man in the World” competition.
Lucky Diamond Rich
Every part of this man's body is covered with tattoos, even his ears and gums! Hundreds of artists did this work, and the guy endured more than 1000 hours of pain. By the way, he can also swallow swords.
Eric Sprague
Eric was born in 1972, now he is called the “lizard man.” Do you know why? He was one of the first to undergo bifurcated tongue surgery. And if you believe the stories and rumors around him, then Eric is considered the one who introduced the fashion for such a modification and made it popular. But not only this gives him the right to be on the third step of our list. Even more surprising is the solid green tattoo that covers his entire body! Eric's teeth are sharpened very sharply, and the flint implants actually scare people, because the guy is capable of goring if necessary!
Pauly Unstoppable
This man's nickname is "unstoppable." He has the largest nostrils, scars on his neck, head, forked tongue, implants and many other extraordinary elements.
Kala Kawaii
This man ranks fifth on our list of "The Ugliest Man in the World." It all started when Kala opened his own piercing and tattoo studio in Hawaii. Apparently, things were not going very well, so he decided to advertise his business in a unique way. To achieve this, Kala covered 75% of his body with tattoos. If this can still be understood and accepted, then his cut tongue, silicone implants, numerous piercings and horns repel many people and even frighten them. As Kala himself says, it does attract crowds of people to his studio.
Elaine Davidson
This is the first woman on our list of the 10 Ugliest People in the World, but she won't be the last. How is this native of Brazil different from other women? Yes, because she has 2,500 tattoos all over her body and numerous piercings. There is approximately 3 kilograms of excess weight on her face alone! Now Elaine lives in Edinburgh, she really misses her native land. And she’s scared to return to her homeland, because not only will they not understand this, but they might even beat her up.
Julia Gnuse
This woman ranks seventh on the list of “The Ugliest Person in the World.” In her case, it all started with a terrible congenital disease - porphyria. It causes blisters to appear on the skin after exposure to sunlight. And they, as a rule, already transform into scars. In order to somehow hide these flaws, Julia got numerous tattoos, and today she is called the “picture woman.”
Rick Genest
This place belongs to a man with the strange nickname “skeleton”, which he received because of the tattoos on his body that completely depict the human anatomy. So it turns out that Rick is a real skeleton. At the same time it's quite famous person. He starred with Lady Gaga in her video and advertised foundation. Today, Rick has fan clubs, and he himself is a sought-after model. The man is not ashamed of his tattoos, he is proud of them and uses them to gain even greater fame.
Etienne Dumont
The literary critic lives in Geneva. Why was he included in the list of “The Ugliest People on the Planet”? His body is completely covered from head to toe with a complex tattoo. However, this is not all that Etienne can boast of. Under his skin there are silicone implants that make him “horned”, and in his ears and under his lower lip there are five-centimeter rings! All this, together with the classic ones, makes him look like some kind of maniac from a movie.
Tom Leppard
The tenth position belongs to a 67-year-old man who is 99% covered with tattoos. On the one hand, he enjoys reading, and on the other, he takes walks in the forest. What's strange about this? Yes, the fact that he walks exclusively on four limbs!
The ugliest people in history
If we talk not about the present, but about the past, then here we can also identify people who are unique for one reason or another. These include, for example, Fyodor Evtishchev, who lived in the 19th century. He suffered from hypertrichosis - profuse hairiness that wildly covered not only his entire body, except for the feet and palms, but also his face. He performed in the circus as a humanoid dog.
Here we can also mention Priscilla Lauter, who lived in the USA at the beginning of the twentieth century. Long hair black color covered her entire body, and her mouth had 2 rows of teeth.
History knows many people with similar and other flaws. Some were born with two heads, some with a tail, some with four legs. Some cases are explained by genetic diseases, while others remain something mysterious and incomprehensible.
The ugliest people in the world are not like everyone else; their appearance is radically different from the standard one. But who came up with these conventional norms? Such people are not evil and nasty mutants, they also want to be loved, have friends and a job they love, but their life is incomparably more difficult than that of an ordinary person in the street. Each person is unique: some consciously change their body, endlessly striving for perfection, others are born hunched over or with protruding ears, but do not try to remake themselves.
However, anomalies human body- a heartbreaking sight that attracts attention. A pimply or stooped teenager is nothing special compared to amazing personalities presented below.
The most terrible people in the world
Joseph Merrick
Anyone who watched the film “The Elephant Man” about the life of Joseph Merrick will remember the appearance of the hero. The man was born in the second half of the 19th century in England. From birth, the face and back were covered with humpbacked growths. DNA studies showed that he had 2 diseases: neurofibromatosis type I and Proteus syndrome.
They were expressed in deformation and underdevelopment of bone tissue, slurred speech and growth of skin fibers. At first, Joseph performed in a traveling circus of freaks. But a meeting with a kind-hearted doctor changed his life. The doctor told the public about Merrick's troubles. Many found him an interesting person.
As contemporaries noted, Joseph’s main problem is that he is not stupid, but smart, kind and sensitive to beauty. He was aware of his ugliness and was sad. In his memoirs, Joseph wrote that he would not wish such a misfortune on anyone.
Julia Pastrana
Born in Mexico in the 19th century. Pastrana had hypertrichosis - she was mustachioed and long-eared with a thick beard. The body, with the exception of the palms and soles, is covered with coarse hair. There were also gorilla-like facial features and short stature- 138 centimeters.
Charles Darwin himself was interested in the actress. After the service at the gentlemen's house, Julia traveled with the troupe. In the cities, circus performers staged humorous plays, making fun of the Mexican woman’s appearance. And yet Pastarna received marriage proposals from the opposite sex.
When she became rich, her own manager took her as his wife. The woman gave birth to a child, equally hairy, but the child died, and the woman herself followed him in a short time. Pastarna died in Tsarist Russia in 1860. Pastarna’s body was subjected to numerous disputes, research, travel for 150 years and was buried only in 2013.
Ulas family
There are stories about freaks who walk on all fours. In 2005, the world learned about a Kurdish family from Turkey that walks on four limbs. Studies of the body have shown that the brains of the Ulas family members are simplified. Vocabulary is primitive, and people move with the help of their legs and arms, while the knees are straight and the pelvis is raised.
The disease was called Uner Tan syndrome. Some scientists call the cause of genetic mutations incestuous marriages, others - atavism of the body, the opposite of evolution.
There are 15 people with the disease in villages near Hatay province where the family lives.
Aceves family
Prominent representatives of the disease, which is characterized by excess facial hair - congenital hypertrichosis. As a child, members of the Asaves family (Chewy, sister Lily, brothers Dan and Larry) performed in the circus.
When they became adults, people considered the family members strange and were afraid to rent to them. Therefore, the mayor gave them 2 houses. The children of the Asaves family were also born with furry faces. They are teased in schools and girls are forced to remove their hair.
Hairy man starred in 10 documentaries. He tried to find a normal job, but was faced with the fact that the circus or freak show paid better.
However, the overgrown Chewie is wildly popular among women. He changed 3 wives and each gave him hairy children.
Jose Mestre
Medical name terrible illness, affecting a person - vascular malformation (hemangioma). Patients suffer from the growth of blood vessels, tumors and fibers.
The tumor has grown to 5.5 kilograms. Jose ate with bleeding gums, the formation grew over his entire face and destroyed his left eye. He was afraid to go outside so as not to scare others.
Clinics in England, Germany and Spain refused to take on the unfortunate Portuguese. And Jose’s mother, a Jehovah’s Witness, categorically prevented the operation due to religious reasons.
Circumstances changed after the death of the patient's mother.
Guardian sister Edith changed the life of her older brother. As a result of complex operations, doctors removed 98% of the tumor. They claim that educational growth has stopped.
According to Edita's description, the marks on Jose's face resemble the effects of a burn. He began to walk on the street, even humming songs. Thanks to the hands of surgeon McKay McKinnon, the man got rid of the bad consequences of the disease.
Rudy Santos
The ugliest women on earth
Elizabeth Velazquez
Lisa Velasquez has Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch syndrome. This is a disease in which the body does not store fat layer, so the woman eats 60 times a day. There are only 3 people on earth with this feature.
Lizzie has faced bullying since childhood. But the main blow was a derogatory YouTube video featuring her. People in the comments complained that the mother did not have an abortion and called Elizabeth ugly. At first, Lizzie Velazquez was desperate and worried. However, this shock gave her the strength to conduct motivational trainings, fight and prove to society that beauty and strength are not only external manifestations, what is more important is what you are inside.
Mandy Sellars
Mandy's legs are shocking, her weight is 95 kilograms. Due to Proteus syndrome, which causes the growth of bones and skin, the Englishwoman underwent painful operations and amputation of her leg.

Therefore, the second name “Painted Lady” was assigned to her.
The ugliest men on the planet
Dede Kosvara
A resident of Indonesia, known as the "Tree Man". In the past Dede was handsome man. But the mutated papilloma virus covered Dede’s arms and legs with strong scales. He carried kilograms of tree-like growths that disfigured his body and caused pain.

Unusual children
Didier Montalvo
This adorable baby was born with a congenital melanocytic nevus. At first there were large moles, then they took on a terrible appearance. As a result, people expelled the family from the village.
Didier was nicknamed "Turtle Boy" by the press because of his hump. Fortunately, donations were collected for the operation and now the 6-year-old boy plays with other children.
Declan Hayton
Declan was born in the UK. He has facial paralysis - Mobius syndrome. This means that the baby has no facial expressions. The disease is incurable, like progeria.
Tessa Evans

Petero Byakatonda
If Crouzon syndrome is eliminated at an early stage, when the baby has just appeared, everything can be cured without consequences. But Petero, born in a provincial town in Uganda, was not subject to medical supervision or intervention.
Due to the disease, the cranial bones form an egg-headed shape and press down on the eyes and ears. This leads to physical defects, hearing and vision problems.
Baby with Treacher Collins syndrome
This problem manifests itself in severe deformation of the bones of the skull and face, and the appearance is disfigured. Problems with hearing and vision begin. In some cases, the beginning of the digestive tract suffers - it becomes difficult to swallow food.

Ashley Graham
A model that weighs 80 kilograms. Previously, Ashley had complexes and struggled with excess weight. Over time, the girl learned to understand and appreciate natural beauty. I stopped torturing myself with diets.
Delightful thick curves and belief in her own beauty make Ashley desirable and attractive to others.
Bree Walker
Famous TV presenter from Los Angeles. Her illness is ectrodactyly or, as people say, “claw-shaped hand,” which is a genetic disorder.
Fingers or toes are underdeveloped or fused together, looking like bones. The anomaly did not prevent Bru from working as a presenter on television, thanks to her excellent diction and pretty face.
Javier Botet
Due to Marfan syndrome, the guy's growing up was accompanied by incredible lengthening of his limbs and frightening thinness. Javier is 2 meters tall and weighs about 50 kilograms. The man used the feature to film mystical horror films. He starred in the horror films Mom, Crimson Peak, and The Conjuring 2.
Verne Troyer
The famous dwarf, whose height was 80 centimeters. Verne played the role of Mini-Me in the Austin Powers film. Despite his outward humor and optimism, Troyer committed suicide in April 2018.
Marilyn Manson
The horror of Manson's image is good makeup, colored lenses and costumes. Marilyn created the image of a Satanist rocker, a frightening, scary freak. Its appearance is unique and inimitable.
Amy Winehouse
Stars often use psychotropic substances that damage their health and body. Emmy had in a strong voice, artistry and an irresistible craving for drugs. This changed the singer's appearance.
Regular binges and substance use destroyed the artist’s skin, hair and teeth. Her image is accompanied by plastic experiments (the appearance and disappearance of large breast implants), a wig on her head, and inappropriate behavior. Winehouse has become a shadow of the once pretty woman. Amy died of a drug overdose in 2011.
Courtney Love
In her youth, Kurt Cobain's wife was a sweetheart: tender lips, deep eyes and smooth legs. Husband's suicide for many years drunkenness and drug addiction turned the woman into a terrible sight.
Victims of plastic surgery
Van Ark, Joan
Joan was hot in the 60s and 70s. She was included in the top 10 most desirable actresses. Swan neck, chiseled figure and big blue eyes.
But not all women know how to age with dignity. Joan desperately changed herself with plastic surgery. And instead of marvelous beauty, Van Ark became a reason for ridicule in the newspapers.
Tori Spelling
Star of the TV series Beverly Hills 90210. Evil tongues It was rumored that the actress was ugly and made her way onto the screen thanks to her father.
One way or another, from her youth Tori shaped her face and enlarged her breasts. The result is unnatural features and facial expressions, breasts of different sizes.
Donatella Versace
The celebrity fashion house Versace occupies a prominent place in the fashion world. However, while instilling in others a sense of taste and style, Donatella knows no limits regarding her own appearance. Plastic surgery has turned a pretty woman into a parody of an elderly Barbie.
Jocelyn Wildenstein
Because of her husband's infidelity, Jocelyn underwent dangerous operations to become like a lioness. She thought that then her husband would return to the family. This did not happen. And the woman’s appearance is hopelessly spoiled.
Experts counted 7 facelifts, eye surgery, implants in the cheekbones, chin and chest. The mutilated “Bride of Wildenstein” herself claims that this is her real appearance.
What some people will not come up with in order to at least somehow outwardly differ from everyone else! Either they will dye their hair a poisonous green color, or they will make piercings in the most unimaginable places, or they will surprise passers-by with the most unusual modifications... Naturally, you need to respect the individuality of absolutely any person and accept him for who he is. But I would like to tell you a little about those people who are too different from everyone else and who bear the title “The Ugliest People on the Planet.”
1. Takes honorable first place Denis Anver, who is better known under the pseudonym "Hunting Cat". This man, at the age of 45, has already become the winner of the “Ugliest People” competition, because he really reminds us of a real unusual monster. His numerous body modifications: colored tattoos, pointed teeth, implants, numerous piercings in the most different places, surgery ears, sharp claws, a forked upper lip and a tiger tail, surprise all people who are generally far from people with a non-standard appearance.
2. I would like to give second place Eric Sprague, whom everyone doesn’t call “lizard man” for nothing. He is one of the very first people who decided to split his tongue, and judging by many stories, it was this man who introduced fashion and made this modification popular. Almost his entire body is covered with a monochromatic green tattoo, and his teeth are sharply sharpened. I would even like to scare you a little, because Eric has flint implants with which he can easily gore you.
3. I would like to present a bronze medal Kale Kawaii, who decided to advertise his salon in Hawaii in a very unconventional way. The man covered his body with tattoos by as much as 75%. Well, what can I say, a cut tongue combined with silicone implants, horns and a bunch of piercings really is a kind of self-promotion, because such a non-standard look attracts whole crowds of potential clients.
4. And here is the first woman on our list - Elaine Davidson. This native of Brazil loves to show off her tattoos (and she has as many as 2,500 of them) and extensive piercings. What can I say, because on her face alone you can count about three kilograms of excess weight - and this is no longer a joke! IN at the moment Elaine lives in Edinburgh and says that she really wants to return to her homeland, but is stopped by the fear that she might not be greeted very joyfully, and indeed might be beaten for such a non-standard appearance.
5. I would like to mention one more representative of the fairer sex on our list - Julia Gnuse. This sweet woman was born with a terrible disease - porpheria, which causes blisters on the skin when exposed to sunlight, which often transform into scars. It was in order to somehow cover up these scars that Julia decided to hide them with numerous tattoos. After a decade, she is considered the most tattooed woman in the world, proudly bearing the nickname “the painting woman.”
6. But I would like to proudly give away sixth place Rick Genest. Why with pride? Yes, because despite the tattoos, for which the guy received the nickname “skeleton” (they completely repeat the human anatomy, thereby turning Rick into a real living skeleton), he is one of the most popular personalities on the entire Internet. After the sensational video of Lady Gaga, where Rick starred with the star and after advertising the foundation, the guy had entire fan clubs consisting of a huge crowd of female fans. At the moment, he is a sought-after model and one of the few who, despite his title, enjoys fame and uses it.
7. It is impossible not to mention Etienne Dumont– extravagant literary critic, who has lived in Geneva for a long time. The man is covered from head to toe with a very complex tattoo, but that's not all! Under his skin, you can see silicone implants that give his head a “horned” appearance, and five-centimeter rings can be seen under his lower lip and in his ears. But in addition, the man always wears classic round glasses - it is because of them that Etienne seems to many to be the embodiment of a maniac from some mysterious literary story.
8. You can't forget about Tom Leppard, a 67-year-old man whose body is 99% covered in tattoos. He spends his measured life for his own pleasure - enjoying books, lonely walks in the forest (although they take place on all fours), avoiding the rush modern society. Even among other people with non-standard appearance, Tom stands out for his extraordinaryness and non-standard behavior.
You shouldn’t think that these are all people who are capable of surprising the most ordinary passerby with their appearance, far from it. On the streets you can increasingly see bright girls who prefer tons of piercings, bright hair color and unusual clothes. Non-standard appearance is already a given, and on the one hand this is even good, because all people are diverse and show their individuality exactly the way they want. Therefore, you should be tolerant of any unusual manifestations, even in the appearance of another person.
Photos of the ugliest people in the world
1. Hilton Sisters
Violet and Daisy Hilton
These sisters are Siamese twins. They had a common circulatory and nervous system. This meant that they experienced one pain between them. The sisters were sold into slavery by their midwife mother, who greedily took advantage of their misfortune. They sang, danced, played various instruments at the circus. Their slave owner took all their income and forbade them to communicate with anyone. In the end, one lawyer helped them escape the shackles, and even bought back all the money they earned. The sisters continued to work in show business and at the peak of their careers earned $5,000.
2. Wild men from Borneo
These "wild men" were actually doppelgängers, mentally retarded dwarfs who had no hope of employment other than to entertain circus audiences. At the age of 26, they were purchased from their natural mother by a man named Lyman Warner. They were taught acrobatics and dances, with which they performed in front of the audience. Enslaved by the Warner family, they continued to bring wealth to the family for fifty years.
3. Woman doll
Lucia Zarate
Lucia was born in Mexico in 1864. She weighed 8 ounces and was 7 inches tall. She weighed less than a kitten. To this day she is the smallest woman on Earth. Arriving in the United States at the age of 12, she was the highest paid midget at the time ($20 per hour). Unfortunately, she died at the age of 26 on a train.
4. Texas Giant
Jack Earl
Al had a condition called acromegaly. Jack Earle performed in the circus with famous circus performers. He also starred in movies like Jack and the Bean Tree (guess who?). Despite the fact that it was difficult for freaks to find work, Earl showed everyone that you can use your extraordinary appearance in any profession. He was a salesman for a wine company and later became their PR representative. He also sculpted, painted, and wrote poetry (his book Long Shadows was published in 1950).
5. "The Hunchback"
Quasimodo - no fictional character. The eponymous Hunchback of Notre Dame in Victor Hugo's story actually lived in Notre Dame. One British researcher found fragments of a memoir that told of a “hunchbacked stone cutter” who worked at Hugo Cathedral. It is not difficult to understand why he was given the nickname "Le Bossu" - the Hunchback.
6. The woman with the face of a mule
Grace McDaniels
This woman was born with a facial deformity that made many people uncomfortable looking at her. She was declared "the ugliest woman in the world." This is also a kind of achievement. Despite her appearance, she was very good person. Grace got married and had a child who did not inherit her facial features, but he became a drunkard and a social outcast.
7. Jo-Jo, the boy with the dog face
Fedor Evtishchev
The boy, like his father, suffered from a rare disease - hypertrichosis. His father lived alone in the forest, away from people, so as not to listen to their ridicule. To earn money, he performed in the circus. After Fedor was born, they began touring together. Soon his father died, and the boy performed for a long time in shows organized by the famous American entrepreneur F. T. Barnum. Like a trained dog, Fedor could bark and growl on command, but he was not a dog. He could speak English, Russian and German.
8. Julia Pastrana
This girl suffered from hypertrichosis - her face and body were covered with black, coarse hair. Outwardly, Julia resembled a gorilla. Her height was a little more than 137 cm. Despite her deformity, Pastrana danced well and was very kind and welcoming. She had a husband, Theodore, who bought her and taught her everything she surprised people with in the circus. Soon, Julia gave birth to a child who lived only 3 days, and she herself died 5 days after this event. Theodore mummified the corpses of his wife and child, and later their bodies were displayed in various Panic Rooms.
9. Schlitzi
Simon Metz
Schlitzi was very popular in the circus. He was a microcephalic - a man with a small skull and a small brain. His child's head sat incongruously on the shoulders of an adult. His brain was about 3 years old, yet he sang and danced like a 10 year old. Already physically an adult, he starred in the film “Freaks” (1932), then “Island of Lost Souls” (1933). After his death, Schlitzi became a true legend.
10. Caterpillar Man
Prince Randian
Prince Randian was an amazing man - he wore sleeveless clothes and no socks. He had only a head and a torso and looked like he was paralyzed, although he could light a cigarette with just his mouth. He had a wife, with whose help he learned to move. Fame came to him in 1932, after cameo role in Todd Browning's "Freaks." Prince Randian lived to be 63 years old.
