This post is about the 20 most extreme female bodies ever from largest to smallest, most longest, most shortest, most pierced, most loud, most old and so on… Lets start with number 1, Julia Gnuse, the most tattooed woman in the world. Enjoy!
1. The World's Most Tattooed Woman
Julia Gnuse, commonly known by the nickname ‘The Illustrated Lady’ born 1959, has 95% of her body (including her face) covered in tattoos and holds the Guinness Record for being the most tattooed woman in the world. Gnuse was born with porphyria, a condition in which sunlight results in blistering of the skin. As the blisters often result in scarring, she began getting tattoos as a way to cover up the scars. However, the tattoos do not prevent the skin from blistering as they are purely aesthetic.
2. Noorsyaidah, Metal Wires Growing in Body
Metal wires about 10-20 cm long grow from a woman’s body! Childcare worker, Noorsyaidah, from Indonesia, claims metal wires have been growing out of her body for 20 years. Protruding from her chest and belly, they initially kept snapping off and disappearing then, a month later, they grew back and now continue to get longer and longer until Noorsyaidah’s sister trims them.
3. Old Dutch woman who swallowed 78 cutlery items
Surgeons were flabbergasted when X-rays showed 78 items of cutlery in 52-year-old, Margaret Daalman’s stomach. After seeing her scan the estate agent’s secretary who had been complaining of belly ache, said: “I don’t know why but I felt an urge to eat the silverware – I couldn’t help myself.”
4. Modified Madam La Negra with horns, tattoos, scarification, piercings and a split tongue
La Negra is a poster girl for modified madams. She has horns, tattoos, scarification, piercings and a split tongue.

The Connecticut housewife says she’s been wearing a corset every day for the past 12 years and she now wears one 24 hours a day. “I probably have around 100 of them,” she says. Eat your heart out Miss Von Teese.
