Just saw an advert for this bodyshock show, and whilst most of these make for uncomfortable viewing this seems unbelievable, his face is covered in hanging tumours that make him look like jabba the hut.
 
The comparison is a little tackless mate

Having said that I saw this last Monday and as harsh as it might sound I can't believe no one put him out of his misery during his infancy. His life is no way to live. Poor Bloke :(

feel sorry for the guy, surely they could have done something for him when he was younger.

His parents were so poor, they couldn't even afford to buy a camera to take photos of him as a child. So... no, they were basically buggered from day one.
 
Watched this, and I have to say, I felt so sad when he started commenting about how all he wanted to do was to be able to work. Its also a shame there was no footage of after he had his second operation.
 
I didn't watch it, and I'm probably going to be flamed for saying this, but...

I think it was utterly wrong to air the ads for this in early evening. Just like all the other freakshow TV documentaries they have been showing lately.

Of course I feel sorry/pity the poor guy, but (at the risk of sounding heartless) to be perfectly honest it's not something I want to be watching as I'm eating my dinner.
