    WOW........Modern Day elephant man

    The surgery was the second operation for 32-year-old Huang Chuncai, who had part of his original 55.7lb (23kg) tumour reduced last year.

    Surgeons at the hospital in Guangzhou removed a further 9.9lb (4.5kg) of the growths this week.

    The tumours are caused by the condition Neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder causing soft, non-cancerous growths to appear on nerve tissues.

    In the UK, around one in avery 25000 babies born are affected by the condition.

    advertisementHuang, who comes from a remote village in China’s southern province of Hunan, said he was relieved following his first operation in July last year.

    The tumour first became visible when Huang was four years old, and has since blocked his left eye, knocked out his teeth and deformed his backbone.

          I just called my wife over to my computer to show her this picture and she said a co-worker of hers sent this particular picture out in an e-mail to everyone saying, "Why the long face?".

          F'ed up.

            It's so hard for me to look at that. It makes me feel terrible.

              Same here. This may sound humorous, but I'm being serious...how does the poor guy shave his face? That has got to hurt.

                        Wow, terrible. I hope they can help the poor guy.

                        I have a question though. I don't want it to sound insensitive, because I do feel bad for the guy, but, why wear a wig?

                            That's terrible. Hopefully they can get all the tumors off and fix his face.

                            If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)
