Some people really like to play the villain, but this man from Venezuela named Henry Damon is really taking it to the next level with his obsession with Red Skull from The Avengers. He’s cut off his nose, tattooed his eyes and face, and implanting subdermal modifications into his face to look like this man.
But the sheer number and severity of these operations are not our favorite part of the story. Nope. It’s the quality of surgeon he allowed to do all of this. Here’s a report from one news source:
“[Henry] has loved comic books since he was a kid and always dreamed of being Red Skull, but never got round to doing it. ‘Then he met up with a brilliant surgeon who specialises in extreme body modifications and just knew that this was his opportunity.'” [source]
Oh a surgeon who specializes in this kind of stuff? Great. At least he was safe about the whole thing… Here’s another report:
“After meeting up with med-school dropout Emilio Gonzalez, who specialises in tattooing and extreme body surgery, Mr Damon ‘knew that this was his opportunity,’ a friend said.” [source]
The surgeon was a med school dropout! I don’t know about you but if I’m going to get my nose sliced and stuff injected into my forehead, I’m going to want to get it done by someone who at least graduated from med school. Here’s a full list of the body transformations Henry, a happily married father, went through.
• Eye tattoos x2
• Face tattoos
• Several silicon injections into his forehead
• Nose reshaping (including cutting both of his nostrils and part of his septum)
Henry’s gone on record to say that he’s going to continue paying good money to f*ck up to modify his face, and I can’t wait to see what the final result will be. Here are some photos of what he looks like.
