The world's most extreme body modifications

The world’s most extreme body modifications – from a man who became an ORC to the non-binary DRAGON

  • Tiamat Legion Medusa, 60, from Texas, who was born Richard Hernandez, had a dream about a snake bite in the 1980s, which they believe turned them into a ‘reptoid’, leading to the dramatic physical transformation 
  • Rico Ledesma, 41, who lives in Brazil with his wife Krishna Insomnia, 25, and their daughter has spent year on his look which is complete with £400 fake fanged teeth which he admits makes it difficult for him to chew 
  • Michel Faro do Prado, 44, from Praia Grande coast near São Paulo, is known as the ‘human satan’ thanks to his extensive body modifications and devilish appearance 

Body modification enthusiasts have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in a bid to change their entire appearance with extreme tattoos and piercings. 

From a non-binary ‘human dragon’ who spent more than $83,500 on modification surgeries including ear removal and tongue splitting to a tattoo artist who has had his nose widened and huge tusks implants in his mouth in order to look like an Orc from Lord of the Rings. 

Another enthusiast, a father, is nicknamed the ‘skull of two faces’ for his large swathes of facial tattoos and implants in his forehead. 

And another, known as ‘human satan’ has had his nose removed and even had surgery to get rid of one of his middle fingers in a bid to look more devil-like. 

One 20-year-old woman has had more than 40 more modifications – including over 20 facial piercings, 12 scarifications, two brandings, six subdermal implants and tattooed eyeballs, in her quest to change her appearance. 

Scarifications involve cutting the skin with designs or words in order to create a permanent scar resembling a tattoo and subdermal implants are an implant which is placed just underneath the skin so the shape of it can be seen protruding.

Tiamat Legion Medusa, 60, from Texas, who was born Richard Hernandez, had a dream about a snake bite in the 1980s, which they believe turned them into a ‘reptoid’, leading to the dramatic physical transformation.

They have since spent more than $83,500 (£61,000) on modification surgeries including ear removal, tongue splitting, castration and countless tattoos and are nowhere near finished. 

They hope to add ‘horns’ to their head and plan to have their remaining six teeth removed in order to get a full set of dental implants designed to look like dragon’s teeth – something they described as an ‘immediate priority.’

They are also planning to have a penectomy – removing their penis entirely in a bid to become ‘the world’s first and only genderless dragon.’ 


For Legion, it all began back in the 1980s when they were in their 20s, when they had a dream that had a ‘very profound’ effect on their life. Legion said: ‘[In the dream] I found myself surrounded by snakes, of all colors and the snakes were all biting me and I was very much afraid, but as the dream went on and they kept on biting me, I could see that I was not being hurt by them or their bites’

Legion believes they are ‘a real and true life reptoid, a half-human/half-reptilian creature’.

‘It was when I realized this that my fear began to subside and I felt safe and at peace and I was not afraid of the snakes, then I woke up.

Legion believes they will finally be finished with their transformation by 2025, at which time they hope to be fully happy with their appearance

‘I can still recall the dream so vividly as if it happened last night, and it was then that I knew there was an important message for me in my dream – it was an omen that I was one of them, a sign of things to come in my life.

‘Today I believe that when those snakes were biting me in my dream that they were in effect injecting me with their venom as a way to give me that venom making me like them, which is why today I am a venom-spitting dragon, as opposed to being a fire-breathing dragon like many people incorrectly assume.’ 

Legion believes they will finally be finished with their transformation by 2025, at which time they hope to be fully happy with their appearance.

Rico Ledesma, 41, who lives in Brazil with his wife Krishna Insomnia, 25, and their daughter has spent year on his look which is complete with £400 fake fanged teeth which he admits makes it difficult for him to chew.

Tattoos cover 85 per cent of Rico’s body, while he also has eight subdermal piercings (those placed under the skin), as well as a tongue split and his eyeballs tattooed. 

And although the large number of modifications he has undergone would usually cost thousands, they have actually cost him almost nothing as his wife does the majority of them.  

‘I started to change seven years ago in order to look different but the project to look like an Orc is less than a year old,’ Rico said.

‘I got six false teeth placed in August 2020 and I’m going to put two bigger ones in, even though I’m having trouble eating and drinking.

‘The new Orc modification project consisted of the implantation of two more tusks (two large teeth), body paintings which are almost all in black with some grey spots and some burns and modifications.

‘Today I have 85 percent of my body tattooed.

‘The teeth were the final touch to the Orc project and came after a lot of study and sleepless nights.’ 

Rico had his teeth done by a dental professional who ’embraced’ the project and the pair figured out how to make it viable.

‘She did a perfect job and I’ve already scheduled in with her again for the next mission,’ he said.

At the start of April, Rico widened his nasal septum to ‘perfect’ the image of the Orc, which was done with the help of a scalpel.

‘I started to change seven years ago in order to look different but the project to look like an Orc is less than a year old,’ Rico said. Pictured: Rico with his wife and daughter 

The couple are now expecting their second child together and Rico says his family and friends love his new look – even his daughter

He’s also had a black tattoo done to complement his Orc look, which he says was ‘the most time-consuming and one of the painful parts’ of his transformation

He said: ‘She loves and supports me in all my transformations. ‘If one day in the very distant future she wants to make some changes to her appearance too, I will be proud of her’

He met his wife, body-piercing professional Krishna who also goes by the name of Bat on the internet

Michel Faro do Prado, 44, from Praia Grande coast near São Paulo, is known as the ‘human satan’ thanks to his extensive body modifications and devilish appearance.

The tattoo artist has been practising his trade for 25 years but has gone one step further to undergo several procedures and completely transform his aesthetic. 

The removal of one of his middle fingers is not the first experience Michel has of cutting off body parts.

Last year, he claimed to have been the third person in the world to have the end of his nose removed, in a procedure which is highly dangerous and for which the long-term health risks are unknown.

He also has four horns on either side of his head and several implants under the skin of his forehead.

Most of his body is also covered in tattoos, including his eyeballs. 

His wife specialises in body modifications and has also helped him achieve his unique look.

‘I have been a tattoo artist for 25 years, most of my tattoos I get from tattoo artists and professionals who I have paid,’ he told Jam Press.

‘I focus on blackwork and brutal tattoos, which are types of tattoos where you ink a large part of your body.

‘But my wife has specialised in the area of modifications and the idea is for me to become her masterpiece when it comes to tattooing!’ 


He also has four horns on either side of his head and several implants under the skin of his forehead

He said: ‘Actually I have a good resistance to pain, I don’t think anything is so painful, I suffer a lot more in the post-procedures than at the time’

Michel claims to have a high pain tolerance and doesn’t mind enduring more pain to achieve the body he desires.

He said: ‘Actually I have a good resistance to pain, I don’t think anything is so painful, I suffer a lot more in the post-procedures than at the time.

‘And the truth is that there are changes that without anaesthesia would be almost impossible to be done, I would love not to feel any pain.

‘But if I have to feel pain, to achieve what I want, for sure I will face it!’

Colombian Raiden Dos Caras had his first tattoo when he was just 12 years old and has since undergone 20 body modifications. 

Nicknamed the ‘skull of two faces’ Raiden has lost count of how much all of the modifications, including tongue splitting and ear removal, has cost him. 

The father aims to become the most modified person in Latin America.  

But the enthusiast revealed that because he has now undergone so many procedures that anaesthesia doesn’t have the same effect so he feels an immense about of pain while going through them.  

He told Blesk: ‘I have undergone so many procedures that anesthesia no longer has the same strength, so I feel great pain’.  

He and his wife Angie Katherin have a three-year-old daughter, Alice. In addition, the Colombian has a stepdaughter, Mariana, who is eight years old. Although the couple is now happy in the relationship, they admit that they faced problems when they first got together because of Raiden’s unique appearance.

She told the Metro: ‘My need for modification is not dictated by the need for attention or to be seen at all costs. It’s a personal need.

‘If I didn’t feel at peace with myself I wouldn’t keep doing this. This is all very natural to me, I don’t have regrets.’ 

Most of the piercings Chiara has undergone were done either by herself or her boyfriend Michele. And Michele even tattooed her eyeballs – the first time he had ever done such a procedure.
