Meet man who spent £30, 000 to become a real-life freak

Venezuelan man goes to great lengths to become the real life version of Red Skull.

Henry Rodriguez turned Red Skull

A 37-year-old Venezuelan man has spent £30, 000 in a bid to look like the real-life version of Marvel comic villian, Red Skull.

Henry Rodriguez, who is a father-of-one has always dreamed of looking like Red Skull, and when he had a chance meeting with a surgeon into extreme body modifications, it was dream come through for him.

Images Rodriguez shared online show his transformation, beginning by getting his eyes tattooed black, having implants inserted into his head and then a painful operation to have part of his nose cut off.

However, Rodriguez who now refers to himself as Red Skull insists that his scary appearance has not changed the fact that he is a loving husband to his wife and a great dad to his three-year-old son, Aaron.

Family photos shared by Rodriguez seem to prove this beyond doubt as his son looks anything but scared of him.

Speaking of his surgery, Rodriguez’s friend, Pablo Hernandez, said:

“He 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.”

It is obvious that Rodriguez has and will continue to suffer criticisms for his new looks but he doesn't seem to care about any of that as would a man whose life long dream has been fulfilled.
