Off The Record
Michel ‘Diabão’ Praddo Is One Of The World’s Most Body-modified People – How He Looked Like Before
Over the years, I’ve witnessed my share of bizarre body makeovers, including folks who have a lot of tattoos or who lose a lot of weight.
However, the question remains: might Michel “Diabão” Praddo win the title for the most outrageous transformation and be the greatest body modification enthusiast?
Having seen his before photos, I am prepared to state that it is accurate.
Horn implants
One of the most severely altered individuals on the earth is Michel Faro do Prado, a Brazilian who goes by the nickname “Diabão” (Big Devil). His identity is heavily shaped by his physical alterations, and he isn’t afraid to share his dark side with his 300,000 Instagram followers.
He became well-known a few years ago after he began sharing photos of himself online. People referred to him as “the human Satan,” and they were shocked to see what he had truly done to his physique.
Approximately 85% of Diabão’s body is thought to be covered in tattoos. He has also had the outer parts of his ears removed and received horn implants. To complete his devil-like appearance, he also altered his teeth.
São Paulo native Michel said in 2020 that he has a high pain threshold and isn’t put off by the thought of going through even more suffering to get his dream “devil” body.
He mentioned, according to New York Post, that he ”suffers a lot more” after the procedures than during them, adding, “The truth is that there are changes that without anesthesia would be almost impossible to be done.”
“If I have to feel pain, to achieve what I want, for sure I will face it!”
The Human Satan
For most of us, the nickname “the human Satan” might seem a bit unsettling —certainly not something I’d want to be called. But Michel has no problem with his moniker. “I believe that the true image of the ‘devil’ is beautiful,” he says.
“The Bible says this in Genesis and also the same way in the book of Isaiah, which says that Jesus was ugly, that he looked like a dry root in the desert.”
“He did not inhabit any beauty, so if it is a matter of fiction that the Devil looks like me more, in my heart I prefer God and doing good!”
Michel seems to always want more modifications, although he has entirely changed his body. He certainly doesn’t appear to have any immediate plans to cease altering his body. Praddo’s primary body changes include transdermal implants, silicone implants, scarification, and the removal of the nose, ears, navel, and nipples.
Additional changes include liposuction, an abdominoplasty, a chrome dental implant, a split mouth, a forked and tattooed tongue, and liposuction.
Amputated his pinky and ring fingers
He recently stunned his fans by admitting that he would amputate his ring and pinky fingers in order to turn them into claws.
Mirror reports that he has had more than 60 body-modifying operations and currently holds the Guinness World Record for having the most “horns” on his head. There has been a lot of response to this.
”It was something very special and unreal. A dream come true to make it into the Guinness World Records and also travel to Europe. At several moments, I was emotional, with tears in my eyes,” he told G1.
According to Michel, his wife Carol has been instrumental in helping him mold his appearance, which he sees as a reflection of his own path. They own their own tattoo parlor and have a son. Carol is also well-known for her significant physical alterations, which have led to the press referring to her as “Mulher Demonia” (Demon Woman).
Born in Santos
Michel was born in Santos, along the coast of São Paulo. He shared that during his youth in the 1990s, he joined the hippie movement and began traveling around Brazil. ”I got my first tattoo back then. It was a ‘tribal’ design on my right arm,” he shared.
A few years later, he made the decision to move to Praia Grande.
Michel married (another woman, before meeting Carol Praddo) and had two children. He became a professional tattoo artist in the mid-2000s, noting, ”Before that, it was very difficult to make a living from tattooing.”
He was already well-known in his city and in his line of work when he fell in love with Carol Praddo, the “Demon Woman.” Having been together for 15 years, the couple has a strong interest in body alteration. But when they first started dating, his partner wasn’t on board with the concept.
According to Michel, his appearance is a reflection of his changing identity and goes beyond simple physical changes. These changes, in his opinion, represent the inner freedom that enables him to defy social conventions and expectations. He constantly pushes limits and defies set standards since he sees his appearance as a means of manifesting who he really is.
How Diabão looked before
He periodically shares images of his previous appearance on Instagram, which has caused many people to wonder about his dramatic alterations.
“I just don’t understand how someone can modify their body to this extent. There’s no going back. If you try to fix this, you’ll still have scarring and disfiguration. You’ll never look like your old self again and will have to live with this the rest of your life,” one commentator shared.
On the other hand, some people applaud him and agree with his choices.
“The point is to not look like how you looked before. People that do this many mods are trying to get as far away from how they looked as possible, so they feel relief the more and more different they look,” another person wrote, adding:
“I also would never do this to this level because I generally like how I look now, but that has not always been the case and I can put myself in someone’s shoes like this and understand.”
