Photos: Man Suffers from Condition that Makes Him Grow 28 Fingers & Toes



An Indian carpenter, Devendra Suthar is suffering from a condition called, Polydactylism that made him grow 28 fingers and toes. Suthar, who hails from from Himmatnagar in Gujarat, India, has seven fingers on each hand and seven toes on each foot - though two of his toes are joined.


He told Daily Mail that people come from far and wide along with their children to see the 'man with seven fingers' and Suthar says he enjoys the attention.

"Because of my extra fingers people here treat me as a celebrity. They come to see me and the attention makes me feel special.  Children laugh when they see me doing funny tricks with my fingers. The expression on their face when they see my toes is priceless. It is because of my fingers that I have become a famous man. I consider my extra fingers and toes definitely are lucky for me and I do not want to cut them off.


The extra fingers and toes certainly trouble me at times. I am a carpenter and work mostly with saw and hammer. I have to always be careful to avoid the fingers."
