Nipples usually come in a pair, but these people have a third teat in the most unusual places on their bodies.

The [slightly hairy nipple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/billie-chia-pet) on the sole of the foot was from a 22-year-old woman, who seems to be getting it removed. The nipple that is on the back of the man’s knee popped up years after doctors used skin from his chest to use in a [skin graft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mark-of-life) for his burns. The man then decided to embrace the fact that he had a third nipple by [piercing it](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zitsticka-x-jonboy).
