Museum openings are usually pretty muted affairs – but not when you invite a man who can turn himself into a cat and someone who thinks he is a lizard.

With a contortionist along for good measure, and a mini Elvis, few guests at the launch of tonight's newest exhibition space in London should be bored – at least not with the entertainment.

Stalking Cat, aka American computer repair man Dennis Avner, 50, is the world's 'most modified man' and has had surgery to create a feline cleft lip and a flat, upturned nose.

He has also had tiger stripes tattooed on his body and fixes synthetic whiskers to a piercing through his lip every day.

Stalking Cat says it is his Native American beliefs that have driven him to transform himself into his totem animal – a tiger.

Ripley's Believe It Or Not museum has a collection of more than 500 oddities, including a display of human shrunken heads from Ecuador and a copy of The Last Supper painted on a grain of rice.

Among other odd exhibits is a Mini Cooper which has been covered in a million Swarovski crystals.

'It was made by an English couple, now living in Canada, and is the finest “art car” in the world. And yes it can be driven,' said Edward T Meyer of Ripley Entertainment.

Other oddball guests at the opening in Piccadilly include Caprice and Jordan, believe it or not...

What jobs do people like this get? First the job would have to pay enough to do this kinda stuff...and then it would have to accept you as a worker after its all done! I have places yell at me for having a mohawk, which I am willing to change if they ask me the right way. I have also been told by multiple companies that my ONE tattoo means that I will have to go in for exams to determine my personality and a check to see what gangs use that tattoo.

I don't really think that this guy I gross...its odd for sure...I would probably put the money toward some really nice tattoos if I had it. But one thing that bothers me is that we live in a world where it is not ok to have tattoos. People are not willing to accept symbols for what they really mean, only what the media tells them. The same goes for piercings, except for the fact that most companies allow women to have piercings but men cannot have them. Now, I give this guy credit for doing this...but how the hell is anyone going to accept tattoos and piercings as ok when they see stuff like this?

Well...next to THESE guys.....a bit of Celtic Tribal Woad Style tattooed on my face will look a WHOLE lot less odd...& a hell of allot more understandable ;) ...don't you think?

Ah...the old freak job...I can tolerate up to 3 hours of country music...does that qualify me as a freak?

And a Woad tattoo would be awesome...but, not that I am against face tattoo, I would rather do that with paints and keep people guessing.

:cry ...I want my tattoos! But I haz no money...nobody wants my guitar package!... :cry
