Yes, I've heard about it! No, I don't think it's a hoax, because a local television sent some journalist there to do a story on him. Poor guy, he was in the newspaper not so long ago too. Warts or something. I dearly hope he gets the medical attention he need, and soon!
Perhaps there will be a fund opened for his treatment so we can all send a little help. Imagine being in that state!

Great story! Not even remotely stupid. However, I would be remiss if I did not urge you in the strongest language possible, that you immediately advise your clients, the Three Little Pigs ["TTLP"]. should they wish to relocate to the West Coast. You need to inform them that California Health and Safety Code forbids building domiciles out of straw, sticks, or unreinforced masonry - as they are all extremely vulnerable to earthquakes, storms, floods, and wildfires - and are therefore, illegal in the State of California. If, however, TTLP prefer the look and feel if brick, it is legal in California to retrofit brick buildings with steel rebar. Such reinforced structures gave been shown to hold up well to storms, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, and occasional Huffing and Puffing.

Well, I've been watching the Learning Channel and they have some pretty weird stuff on there from foreign countries. Like those big tumors on their faces!! People walk in my house and almost puke and say, "how can you watch that?" I think it's interesting because some day they may cure all this and if my great grandkids ask me if things like that really happened I can say I saw it!!! The one that stands out most is the men that have to carry their "business" in a wheel barrow because their so big from some rare growth!! That one took the cake!!
True story!!!!!! I see you're a Shrek fan, I've been trying to think of the kid in pic's name!!!

I don't believe it is a hoax, it appears to be a case of uncontrolled growth of warts, accordiing to a story I read about him. He apparently is in the US with doctors who think they can help him. I feel sorry for the poor man. How terrible to have that kind of affliction. Suddenly my own hands seem so much more precious.

I can't get into the video JuJu but judging from the site, I would not go back here because experience has taught me that hackers can get into you person files from sites that look like this. Just my personal experience that is all. Merry Christmas JuJu, xoxoxo! P.

Your humping frog site is a hoot -- think those ladies get off on being related to amphibians ? -- anyhow, seeing pictures of elephant man and some other strange things that human and animal alike are born with, don't see where it's all that unbelieveable.

I've never seen anything like that. Not much information was provided in the film. If his hands and feet were that heavy I wouldn't think he could walk like he did. I could be wrong, but I don't believe it. It is very interesting though.

I have read the story. Seems to me that he has a real issue with fungus. And the picture is real ugly.
