A before-after photo of the transformed man who became the 'Black Alien' went viral in early 2023. The image was shared on Reddit on January 1, showing Anthony Loffredo turning into The Black Alien.
Loffredo made modifications almost all over his body. Tattoos adorn from head to toe -- including the eyeballs. In addition, the tongue is also split in two, the nose is 'removed' until only the hole remains.
Not only that, Loffredo was even willing to cut his finger to support his goal of becoming an alien. There are also horns purposely made on his head. Netizens also gave their comments about the before-after photos.
"The photo before honestly looks like Bradley Cooper. Handsome guy. This is very sad (obviously body dysmorphia or other mental health problems... I'm not against tattoos, but this is not normal," wrote one netizen.
"Everything he did, removing so many important parts from your body must have an impact right? Is he in pain from surgery and missing body parts?" others are worried.
Loffredo himself considered himself a 'project'. He documented his transformation from an ordinary man to a 'black alien' on Instagram @the_black_alien_project. He already has 1.2 million followers. Thus launched NDTV, Tuesday (10/1/2022).
