Perhaps you’ve heard of Joseph (John) Merrick, better known as the Elephant Man? Meet the Elephant Woman! Mandy Sellars is a 35-year old woman afflicted with a disease called Proteus Syndrome which causes abnormal skin and bone development (Merrick also suffered from this condition).
Mandy is a size 8 and a relatively normal 68 lbs in her upper half, but her legs together weigh nearly 300 lbs. Amazingly, she is still able to walk with some difficulty!
