O.O


how... odd....

TheRaisin 12-18-2004 08:13 PM

I am alternately laughing and puking. I wonder if this type of thing can happen with other parts of the body. Like, if you put skin from your scalp on your ass, does it grow hair?

This is one of the weirdest and funniest things I've ever seen.

AquaticAmbi 12-18-2004 08:24 PM

Oh man, that's hilarious. I don't understand how that's possible, but still.

Dipstikk 12-18-2004 08:33 PM

BWAHAHAHA!
One word: Photoshop.

It's gotta be.

No it's real.

It's also pretty lame. I was expecting some story involving redneck trailer trash mutated retardedness.

Rex Tirano 12-19-2004 10:10 AM

Ack! That's disgusting! No way it could be real...

Could it?

mawk 12-19-2004 10:12 AM

I did NOT have gay relations with that hobo

Discovering that must've been a dissapointing moment for you. :spin:

Yeah, but my arse is hairy enough to begin with.

ahem.

No, seriously I heard that if you get a skin graft from your arse to your hands, you have to get the hair removed otherwise you'll have hairy palms.

That's um... kinda gross. *Is so thankful to be female*

That reminds me of something I saw on some tv show once. There was this man that lost his penis to cancer, and he had a finger surgically removed and attached to what was left to try to reconstruct it. I wonder if it could grow a finger nail...

Nate 12-19-2004 02:28 PM

Hey thats nothing, he had to have his hands stitched to his arse cheeks for a few weeks until the two limbs fused, and then the skin was peeled off his arse so now he has two handprint shapes on his arse.

Woah! That's just plain disgusting. But I guess he had to have something put there, right?

Did they drill a hole down the centre of the finger so that it was 'functional' or was it merely an aesthetic thing?

That would make a small winky.

Although I'm a little sceptical of this story. Pisstool cancer?

Not sure. It was last year that I saw the story on TV. But it was fully functional; he could even have sex.

And yes mawk, penile cancer does exist. You'd be surprised at all the strange ways surgeons can reconstruct body parts. If a find any sources on the story, I'll be sure to post them.

EDIT: I did a search or two and found a few articles mentioning the story. Here's the most reliable one about the transplant itself:

Not a chance. You can see the blur where they tried to 'stitch' on the nipple with some image editting program.

Godlesswanderer 12-21-2004 05:14 PM

The skin looks burnt around the knee area so it does look he had some kind of graft. But I don't get how chest skin could grow a nipple. Surely nipple skin would grow a nipple. But then again, the human body does strange things.

Doesn't look burnt to me... The only thing I see resembling a burn would be the pressure from him holding his trouser leg back.

Alcar 12-22-2004 06:21 AM

I'd say it is entirely possible, but I'm not agreeing that these particular images of this man with a nipple on his knee are real. I have a friend who has a thid nipple off to the side of his right nipple. He likes to show it off ALL the time. Either he's hiding his insecurity with it, or he really wants people to suck it.

And wow... A finger for a penis? I wouldn't have bothered to be honest, a dildo would've been better by far. But then I guess he wasn't willing to sacrifice sensitivity for size.

Alcar...

TheRaisin 12-22-2004 11:14 AM

My fingers are way too short for that. They need to think up some way of creating a sort of mechanical penis, but using skin from somewhere else, preferrably with the same sensitivity as the original. Nahmean? That'd be great for people with cancer of the penis. Although the scientists would hafta have size limits so the cancer victims wouldn't have an unfair advantage. But uhh anyway.

I wonder if people experience quote-unquote "phantom pain" with skin grafts. Like, if you get skin from your buttocks grafted onto your hands, then every time you clap your hands does it feel like somebody's drumming on your buttcheeks? . . . It's possible. If a person can feel pain in a limb that's no longer there, I'd imagine they could feel a sensation in one part of their body and interpret it as happening on another part of their body.

Gawrd this is a weird topic.

I doubt it. The butt-skin no longer has any connection at all to the butt, only the hand.

TheRaisin 12-22-2004 04:55 PM

But an amputated limb has no connection whatsoever to the body, yet amputees seem to experience sensations in limbs that are no longer there.

Obviously, the human brain is a powerful thing. If only people could actually use them.

Godlesswanderer 12-22-2004 05:07 PM

Use brains or phantom limbs?

It doesn't matter. If you touch your neck, the brain doesn't recognise the feeling as coming from your neck, it just recognises a particular nerve pattern made when the neck is touched. The pattern remains, no matter where the nerves are, so what TheRaisin said is entirely possibly, and infact the effect would be harder to stop than it would be to create.

Actually, a friend of mine had this weird thing where he had a nerve from like his lungs or something put in to his arm... and when he coughs he feels like his arm is coughing.

Or something like that.

Bah it was ages ago though so I can't quite remember the exact details of it.

Would you be willing to sacrifice sensitivity? :p

Ooh... phantom limbs and nerve-feelingness in other parts of the body. This thread has certainly evolved. Both are really bizarre, but not rare. I read about a woman who had reconstruction surgery on her nose, using skin from her forehead. Everytime her forehead itched, she had to scratch her nose--and vice versa.
