Felix Wehrle AKA "The Elastic-Skin Man," could stretch his skin out and could also bend his fingers backwards and forwards. He could stretch his skin on any part of his body. This was because Wehrle suffered from "Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome," a condition that makes your skin very flexible. He performed at many Barnum & Baily shows.
