These twins will do anything to take their need for [body modification](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/actual-body), including amuptation. They are Ryan and Dave and after reaching their limits with [piercings and tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inkstory), they decided to give each other their parts. Ryan had Dave's right arm surgically attached to his right pectoral muscle. Dave is now an [amputee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ffate), but Ryan did give him half of his ring finger for his left hand so Dave now has a Franken-Finger. Sounds like a circus side-show to me! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Extreme Body Modification:** Opportunity for innovative body modification procedures that push the boundaries of personal expression and self-identity. - **Amputation Art:** Exploration of artistic expressions through intentional amputation, offering unique opportunities for creatives and body modification artists. - **Biohacking Revolution:** Emerging trend in biohacking and transhumanism, opening doors for advanced body modifications that enhance human capabilities and redefine the boundaries of the human body. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Body Modification Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunities for the body modification industry to explore unconventional procedures and products that cater to extreme body modification enthusiasts. - **Art and Design Industry:** Innovative opportunities for artists and designers to explore unconventional mediums and techniques in the realm of amputation art. - **Biotechnology Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in the biotechnology industry for developing cutting-edge biohacking technologies and procedures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Reversible Robotic Hands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reversible-robotic-hand.md) - [Mind-Controlled Artificial Arms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-prosthetic-arm.md) - [Wearable Robotic Limb Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jizai-arms.md) - [Unusual Food Tattoo Challenges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omaha-steak.md) - [Affordable 3D-Printed Prosthetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunet.md) - [Monotrack Bike Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monotrack-bike.md) - [Transformative Survivor Tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mark-of-life.md) - [Creepy Severed Hand Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wednesday-thing.md) - [Hyper-Realistic Flesh Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junji-ito.md)
