The human (lizard) spotlight. I think this act started with The Enigma in the 90's as a mental floss variation; it was one of the acts that Jim requested I build & perform when I joined the circus in 99. An LED bulb on the end of a wire is threaded up the nose and then down the back of the throat into the mouth with a crystal ball held in the teeth to focus the light. It requires total darkness in a large space for full effect. This photo is from a photo shoot for Ripley's in 2001 in Orlando at the archives. Every so often this act pops back into my head & I start thinking about new twists for it; today is one of those times #thelizardman #sideshowhistory #sideshoweverydamnday https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbay2dDOya1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Late documentation of the excellent gift giving skills of @atxmeghan who got me green clown noses & a Godzilla bank that I immediately improved with googly eyes she gave me for our anniversary last month. She also got me a phone case / wallet that you can't see because it's on the phone taking this picture... #TheLizardman #ClownNose #godzilla #googlyeyes #tattoos #sideshoweverydamnday #splittongue (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYFBdCILWhv/?utm_medium=tumblr

It's the last day of shows for @hellzapoppin at @official_fullthrottlesaloon and I've been having too much fun to keep up my usual posting schedule but I had to share some pics of my new (to me) beer keg courtesy of @512brewing - very happy to share more of Austin with the crowds out here. Thank you!!! Hellzapoppin has another week of headlining shows before we take a short break and return with In This Moment in September. See y'all down the road... #piercedweightlifting #sideshoweverydamnday #drink512 #thelizardman (at Full Throttle Saloon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0_kCg4F1PC/?igshid=uj63jq4jxktc

Big thanks to @sacreddebris for sharing this pic from 1999 of me doing a little impromptu double blockhead (six inch nail in one nostril, screwdriver in the other) performance at Modcon. In case you didn't know, it takes a lot of shaving for me to maintain my current lizard torso 😂 If you're interested in body modification, especially learning & preserving the history, please check out and support @sacreddebris #thelizardman #humanblockhead #sideshoweverydamnday https://www.instagram.com/p/CcnXV49u2tW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
