Ha! Mazing Photos: O.M.G: Facts: This Man! This Stretcher!!

Wonders shall never cease!
Meet Jenya Bolotov, the 26 year old man that has spent seven years transforming his features - stretching eight parts of his face beyond recognition - to emulate the distinctive bill of a platypus.

He has stretched both of his ear lobes, his nostrils, septum and his top and bottom lip by more than nine-and-a-half inches altogether.

These are the pictures that show that Jena has followed his life's ambition in becoming 'the human platypus'.

'Externally, I am now a platypus': The semiaquatic egg-laying mammal that Mr Bolotov aspires to become.
