BRISTOL, UK (WTXF)- A man who reportedly desires to replicate the appearance of a parrot has gone to extreme measures to achieve his goal.
The Daily Mail reports that Ted Richards, 56, recently underwent a 6-hour operation to transform himself into the multi-colored bird.
So far the transformation has led him to have his ears removed, color his eyeballs, split his tongue, get 110 tattoos, and get more than 100 piercings.
The transformation is reportedly a tribute to his pet parrots, Teaka, Jake, Timneh, Ellie and Bubi.
Next, he plans to have his nose turned into a beak.
