German man sets world record with 516 body modifications

Rolf Buchholz set the first Guinness World Record for maximum body modifications, which are 516,453 of them are piercings, 158 of which are around his lips. Apparently, neither the world record nor the 516 modifications fill the brim for Buchholz’s enthusiasm for body modifications. ‘I’m not finished altering my body’, he says. This began when Buchholz was forty, he got his first tattoo and hasn’t stopped experimenting with tattoos, piercings and implants since then and doesn’t intend to do so anytime soon.
