This man can pull back his skin by 15-16cm. The unusual ability of Harry Turner, who is called the man with “rubber” skin

Unfortunately, quite often people have congenital diseases that can ruin their lives. They are very difficult to treat, only delivering a fair amount of inconvenience to a person. However, despite all the disadvantages, some people even manage to benefit from their disease and become famous all over the world.

A prime example of this is Harry Turner who suffers from a rare disease – Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. This ailment is quite rare, occurring in only one person out of 10,000. With this diagnosis, the connective tissues of the skin and internal ligaments are affected, which makes it unique in elasticity. The disease allows Harry to pull his skin like rubber by 15-16 cm. The man is able to pull the skin from his neck over his face, and put a couple of beer mugs on the stretched skin of his abdomen.

The unusual “feature” manifested itself in childhood. For the first time, his strange abilities were noticed by his uncle when Turner was about 3 years old. He often demonstrated this feature to his friends. Already at the age of 13, the boy was given an accurate diagnosis.

As he got older, Harry came to the conclusion that his peculiarity could be used to generate income. For some time he performed at the Circus of Horrors, joining the Circus of Horrors team, which participated in the British talent show. To date, he is part of the Strange People team, which includes the most unusual people in Britain. They give concerts to a fairly wide range of spectators, among whom you can meet members of the royal family.

Due to his unusual features, Harry is listed in the Guinness Book of Records. Many viewers and fans believe that such unusual skin is a special skill, but not a deformity. After all, if you do not show others your peculiarity, no one will notice it. But this disease has a lot of side effects. One of which is that his skin is 2 times thinner than that of other people.

Now Harry is very popular, delighting the audience with performances. Of course, he understands that one day his feature will become uninteresting to the audience and is now trying to use it to earn a good income.
