Strange But True:Meet The 'Giraffe Boy'

 
A Chinese boy has been living with intense pain due to having 10 vertebrae in his neck instead of 7.
15-year-old Fu from Beijing has been called “Giraffe Boy” because of his long neck.
Wengui, who lives in Beijing, can barely walk well due to the extra pressure on his neck.
‘These vertebrae press on the nerves in his neck and make it difficult for him to walk,' 'He always causes a stir whenever he goes out.'
The teen has been diagnosed with congenital scoliosis and abnormal chest frame and is now set to have corrective surgery to fix the problem.
He said: 'I just hope I can have a normal neck.'
