A man whose dream is to look like a 'living skull' is being slated online.
Eric Yeiner Hincapie Ramirez, who goes by the name Kalaca Skull, has had his nose and ears cut off, his eye tattooed black, and large teeth inked around his mouth.
The 22 year old, who claims that he’s always loved skulls, started undergoing extreme surgical procedures two years ago.
He's reportedly the first person in Columbia to voluntarily have his nose and ears mutilated, which has attracted a lot of criticism from the public.
However, Kalaca Skull says it's his body and he's happy.
He told Columbian website Rio Noticias:
"Body modifications are a personal decision and should not be judged. It is like judging a woman for getting breast or buttock implants."
"I am a normal person who just happens to look a lot different than most other people. It’s like a different way of thinking, of dressing, a different style of music. I just feel good the way I am."
