Erik Sprague is The Lizardman.

He has had a� lot of body modifications – obviously – and makes his living performing shows and stunts for audiences around the world. He has also made a name for himself by appearing on television and in public appearances. Basically, he a very busy guy, and has made some serious efforst at getting himself “out there” as a showman and entertainer.

Sprague says his oddball look has caused far fewer double takes since he started regularly appearing on cable television shows. People are now more likely to shake his hand, not shake in fear.

He also carries the classic message – Don’t Judge a Book By Its Cover – or a Lizard Man either, for that matter. This Lizardman was a Ph.D. candidate at the University at Albany before beginning his transformation, andholds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy. And he is writing a book about what it is like to be the Lizardman; now that should be an interesting read.
