#1 1.) Ella Harper, also known as "The Camel Girl." She got the name because she preferred to walk on all fours.
#2 Ella was born with a strange and rare orthopedic condition that caused her legs to bend backwards. During her life she worked as a circus performer, earning an impressive $200 a week. She lived from 1870 to 1921.
#3 2.) Fannie Mills, also known as "The Ohio Big Foot Gir
#4 Fannie had a condition known as Milroy Disease, which caused her feet to grow to an abnormally large size. At their biggest, her feet were 17 inches long.
#5 3.) Maurice Tillet, also known as "The French Angel."
#6 As a teenager, he was diagnosed with acromegaly, which causes bones to overgrow and thicken. I certainly wouldn't want to face him in the ring.
#7 4.) Frank Lentini, also known as "The Great Lentini."
#8 Frank had a fully functional third leg that was the result of a partially absorbed conjoined twin. He spent his life in the United States performing on the circus show circuit. He even had a wife and several children.
#10 Jean was unique in that he had a parasitic twin attached to his chest area. X-rays revealed that a small head with a circumference of six inches was embedded inside Jean's body. He even named the twin Jacques.
