21 People Proudly Shared Their Fascinating Body Abnormalities, And It's W-I-L-D
"I remember my mum saying when I was a kid that I could have my off-centered pupil operated on one day to make it ~normal~ if it really bothered me, but I was essentially like, Nah, [screw] it, if people have a problem with this, there's a problem with them."

So, I rounded up a bunch of the top-voted ones from Reddit's r/mildlyinteresting as of late, and they did not disappoint. Check it out:
1.Like this person who was born "without the rest" of their ear, the result of microtia, where a baby is born with a small and not fully formed ear.
2.This very flexible person who can make their thumb and pinkie touch each other on the back side of their hand:
3.This person whose hands get splotches sometimes that go away in less than 15 minutes, which might be bier spots, a type of vascular anomaly.
4.And this person with Marfan's syndrome, a genetic disorder that affects connective tissue and usually affects the heart, eyes, blood vessels, and skeleton.
5.This person who's had an off-center pupil since birth:
6.And this person who took a great photo of their sectoral, or partial, heterochromia, which occurs when there are two different colors in the same iris.

13.This person whose finger is now misshapen after removing a ring that'd been on for 2.5 years straight:

15.This person whose right index finger is longer than all their other fingers:
16.This person whose blood circulation makes it look like their middle finger belongs to someone else (and is likely a result of Raynaud's phenomenon):
17.Or this person who doesn't have middle knuckles on any of their fingers or toes:
