Half Man, Half Tree(Viewer Discretion Advised) by Nobody: 12:27am On Feb 22, 2008
I was watching TLC last light when I came across a man with a disease. The narrator described the man as Half man, half tree. I quickly changed the channel, didn't even bother to know the cause. I beg you not to watch this if you can't stand anything abnormal, I'm not even going to watch it. Viewer Discretion Adviced.

The man must have some abnormal ectodermal hyperplasia.

Who knows?

I think somehow his body is not receiving the signal to stop making the normal skin tissues needed to replace the cells lost by normal wear and tear and the mechanism has somehow gone haywire.
The woody appearance must be from excess keratinization.

This is so sad.
I wonder how he's able to cope with this bizarre situation.

Good job Nwando and Chiegemba I knew the guy needed a biopsy.

Not surprised about HPV at all.

You would be very impressed by 15x12x18cm cauliform growth from the anal area of a gay man we saw yesterday.

Biopsy also showed HPV.
