Proceedings of the Athanasius Kircher Society

Hey Romi! Remember that story you were telling me about the feather ball. This stroy strikes just a little too closely for comfort:

Proceedings of the Athanasius Kircher Society: "The Society has been greatly enjoying the prolific output of J. Tithonus Pednaud, teratological historian and author of the Human Marvels web site. Recently, he has called our attention to Prince Randian, an armless and legless sideshow performer known alternately as “The Living Torso,” “The Snake Man,” “The Human Worm,” “The Human Cigarette Factory,” and “The Amazing Caterpillar Man.” Randian spoke Hindi, German, English, and French, and was able to write, paint, shave, and roll a cigarette using only his mouth. He makes a brief appearance in the 1932 film “Freaks,” lighting a cigarette and uttering only one virtually inscrutable line of dialogue: “Can you do anything with your eyebrows?” He died of a heart attack in 1934 at the age of 63."
