This is probably a little old. But damn, I think I'd commit suicide if my hands and feet looked like that.

Judging by you vague description, I'd rather not see what it's all about >__>

Conditions like that make me realize all problems in my life are pretty small.

Well it's not too gross since it's just a video but I'd probably want to puke if I saw that in real life. According to something I read this was all caused by HPV combined with some crazy genetic disease called epidermodysplasia verruciformis..

I saw the show on this guy. What he has is a type of skin wart that has slowly taken over his whole body. The cause and cure were discovered on the show I watched, and I know they did a follow-up show about him being treated for his disorder, but I don't know if he was cured.

I didn't think it was gross, just strange because I never knew stuff like that could happen. We all learn something new everyday. It makes our problems look like nothing compared to his though. Imagine all the grossed out faces and continuous teasing for something he can't even help.

He will never need to look for fire wood again. However, that's only looking at the positives...

"'On August 26, 2008, Dede returned home following surgery to remove 6 kg (13 lb) of warts from his body.[13] In all, 95% of the warts were removed.[13] The surgery was documented by the Discovery Channel and TLC in the episode "Treeman: Search for the Cure."[citation needed] However, his warts have returned and it appears he will need two surgeries a year for the rest of his life to keep them at bay.[14]"

I couldn't watch that video right now if I wanted too, but I know what you're talking about. That must be a terrible thing to go through. I'm glad I never get warts.
