  • jeremyduffy, on 06/16/2008, -3/+244Thank goodness she was born in a culture that believes in multi-limbed deities.
    • dioxys, on 06/16/2008, -12/+3Yeah, and parents not immediately thinking of plastic surgery.
      • minoss, on 06/17/2008, -0/+15Except it was plastic surgery that ended up saving her life. Not too mention walk.
    • acrodev, on 06/16/2008, -2/+63Maybe the deities were created in the image of physical deformities?
      • handheldchimp, on 06/17/2008, -1/+19Are you saying their deities are deformed?!?!? That sir, is unacceptable!
    • virtualonliner, on 06/17/2008, -4/+62Being an Indian, I am actually pleasantly surprised that the parents actually went for the surgery. As the article notes, lot of them might have considered it a terrible curse. Add to that, that some people would even be worshiping her as Goddess Lakshmi. Few would even have let her die, if it comes to that. And to see that the parents are not really educated, makes me feel good about my country.
      • benguild, on 06/17/2008, -1/+15...Why is this guy getting dug down?
      • zeero, on 06/18/2008, -0/+1"your country" is now the country you immigrated to :) but still i understand what you mean.
    • MacSuxWindozSux, on 06/17/2008, -11/+1It's Kali. Everybody run!!!

    • daybreak, on 06/17/2008, -0/+6Agreed...awesome luck to be born into a culture that not only accepts but worships you under these circumstances.
    • theone3, on 06/17/2008, -7/+1Well, it's highly unlikely she'd be born anywhere else, given India is one of the few countries with no standards for uranium mining, and ridiculous amounts of uranium poisoning near mining facilities.
    • Lux7, on 06/17/2008, -9/+5If she was born in Japan... those limbs would be removed right away in fear of tentacle rape.
    • 2clone, on 06/17/2008, -3/+6God shows off his Spore creature.
  • stephenhacking, on 06/16/2008, -20/+4Were all of those limbs functional?
    I hope they're not doing a big mistake by not cutting off the extra limbs a little late - this is definitely a genetic mutation and no sign from god.
    PS: I have no idea where the Goddess Lakshmi had 8 limbs? - That looks more like a fabrication since i've seen pictures/photos/images of the goddess for the past 17 years at home..
    • ArtySkox, on 06/16/2008, -0/+13Read the article - this is about her first steps AFTER the additional 4 limbs were removed.
    • fas2, on 06/17/2008, -0/+8"She could not use the twin's arms and legs, [...]"

      I don't get how people can ask stuff that can be easily checked. Is it laziness?
    • CrazedLeper, on 06/17/2008, -4/+2Well if it was evolution, they should have left them. Maybe all this fantasizing about Spider Man has reached the genetic level and, in a few million years, we'll all shoot webs from our wrists. That is, of course, assuming that Neverlution is a fact--which it isn't.
    • ramunenke, on 06/17/2008, -3/+1Actually, if it were evolution, she would be left to die quickly since she could barely more will the parasitic body dragging her down so her mutation would not be passed along
  • fluidfoundation, on 06/16/2008, -13/+72I bet you she could have won a bitchslapping contest any day of the week.
    • TomJohn, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4Yeah, if she says 'Tell it to the hand,' you may as well just hang it up.
    • heath13, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4the ass kicking contest is what i would avoid challenging her at..
  • Cgeoffrion, on 06/16/2008, -42/+5kinky


    (too soon?)
  • FlyingSpaghetti, on 06/16/2008, -73/+59Kill it with fire!!!
    • Puffles, on 06/17/2008, -11/+17That's mean.
    • unida767, on 06/17/2008, -15/+4Wish I could Digg your comment more than once. Got a great laugh from that
      • hiimcliff, on 06/17/2008, -3/+2i almost didn't laugh until i read your reply... im so damn immature. *cries*
    • jamwil87, on 06/17/2008, -6/+3Wow. I want to dig it.. I want to bury it.

    • nate007, on 06/17/2008, -2/+1save me a seat
    • Risingashes, on 06/17/2008, -2/+1Thought the same thing. No idea where the violent thoughts are coming from.
  • emaredubyou, on 06/17/2008, -16/+8I wonder what they did with the extra limbs after the op...
    • Rizmaster, on 06/17/2008, -1/+29So....are you gonna eat those?
    • Kinnkster, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4We all do but we'd rather not admit it so be prepared to be dugg down.
    • sirbeta, on 06/17/2008, -0/+2"This is exactly what it looks like" -Peter Griffin
  • kingjafee, on 06/17/2008, -16/+38So by now with all these multi armed children coming outta India I am starting to think that maybe Britain has been experimenting with creating Spider people by putting some hormones in India's water supply...

    I mean seriously how many multi armed babies before someone says OK this isnt cool England stop with the Spider Babies....
    • NotOptium, on 06/17/2008, -1/+33One........
      .....Tw--

      SWEET JESUS! I'm a multi armed man!
    • kuzotz, on 06/17/2008, -3/+2there is this guy in india that has huge feet. I mean like bigger than shac's yao's and kobe's combined.
    • phoenixankit, on 06/17/2008, -3/+2Sometimes I wonder, some people try SO hard to be funny, but just cant.
  • globalnomad, on 06/17/2008, -17/+3I prescribe fire and lots of it
  • jtbell04, on 06/17/2008, -13/+95I'll be impressed when she spins a web.
    • Daz3, on 06/17/2008, -0/+15Or catches a crook.
    • CFRHoar, on 06/17/2008, -5/+0you sir have made my day
    • ElbertF, on 06/17/2008, -0/+3I wonder what Homer would sing about this.
      • Greg2k, on 06/17/2008, -2/+4Spider Kid! Spider Kid!
        Does whatever a Spider Kid does.
        Can it swing - from a web?
        No she can't, she's a kid.

        Look ouuuut, she's a Spider Kid.
  • mannymix03, on 06/17/2008, -5/+13Its amazing what we can do with medicine these days, hopefully she will be able to live a (semi) normal life now
  • KaiSe7eN, on 06/17/2008, -15/+36Wow, it's like Shiva, from Mortal Kombat. lol too soon?
    • Hindu_Wardrobe, on 06/17/2008, -2/+24Or Shiva, the Hindu goddess...
      • YourDoom123, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4god... shiva's male. just not in video games since for some reason a pratically naked depiction of a female shiva boosts sales among nerds who don't know the difference.
    • debuggercll, on 06/17/2008, -2/+15It's never too soon Mortal Kombat.
  • otto989, on 06/17/2008, -9/+17WTF
  • runintoflowers, on 06/17/2008, -5/+43how does she pee?
    • handheldchimp, on 06/17/2008, -4/+28She doesn't. The wastes her body develops are actually shot from her ears in the form of a vapor.
    • Zarokima, on 06/17/2008, -0/+11If you really require an answer, there appears to be a vagina between two of the legs on her side (third pic).
    • Lynx34, on 06/17/2008, -0/+10If you look at the third picture down (the one used for the preview), it looks like her genitals are between her left leg and the nearest leg of the headless conjoined twin; or at least that seems to have been the location post-op. Not sure where it might have ended up after the surgery though, presumably in the normal position, but you can't really be sure.
      • locke2002, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4Post-op means after the surgery. You must mean pre-op.
    • HigherLogic, on 06/17/2008, -1/+4Oh, c'mon. "If you really require..." You know everyone's wondering the same thing, how does she go to the bathroom.

      By the way, they're doing a special of this girl on the National Geographic Channel on Sunday I believe. Looks pretty interesting.
  • tkcom, on 06/17/2008, -9/+8Octopus!
  • deusny, on 06/17/2008, -16/+138but can it run crysis?
    • fantastcandy10, on 06/17/2008, -0/+21maybe just this once that will be funny....

    • nova912, on 06/17/2008, -5/+3That was a triumph!
    • Ionworm, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5I don't know why but that was extremely funny.
    • DefaultGen, on 06/17/2008, -4/+2Can it even run?
    • crimsonpanda, on 06/17/2008, -3/+1I laughed at this and I don't even know why.
  • santaliqueur, on 06/17/2008, -9/+72Pics or it didnt.....oh...ok.
  • twiztidsinz, on 06/17/2008, -10/+65Spiderbaby. Spiderbaby. Does whatever a spiderbaby does.
    • XBunnyRacer, on 06/17/2008, -11/+5I actually laughed out loud.. and then I sang it to my husband after he saw the pictures and he lol'd too..

      One of the best comments I've read on Digg..
    • monkeyfugitive, on 06/17/2008, -11/+2LMAO HAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAH
  • ootd, on 06/17/2008, -18/+2Wow this baby SURE knows how to use photoshop!

    http://www.greatdreams.com/political/world-octopus ...
  • Aurabolt, on 06/17/2008, -4/+14No pics of her after the surgery?
    Way to exploit people, media. Good job.
    • Ionworm, on 06/17/2008, -0/+2The first pic is after the surgery, I think.
      • crossmr, on 06/17/2008, -0/+4yes, but not exactly as detailed as the rest. If we're going to go in to detail about the deformities we could go in to detail about how they fixed them , maybe another x-ray to show how things were rearranged, etc
  • TheShom, on 06/17/2008, -8/+11That was one of the most uncomfortable articles i've ever read.
    (Shiver)
    • ramunenke, on 06/17/2008, -1/+2note to self, dont read the odd stuff section of digg while trying to fall asleep

  • ralphthemagi, on 06/17/2008, -8/+3The future of mankind right here. Spider people! *cue mid-90's cartoon Spiderman music*
  • handheldchimp, on 06/17/2008, -9/+5Spider-man's true form?
  • kylethompson1, on 06/17/2008, -6/+13She should have kept the limbs and become a superhero. That would have been awesome.
    • digggggggggg, on 06/17/2008, -0/+1Yeah, but 4 of the limbs would have been limp. Talk about extra weight...
  • username484767, on 06/17/2008, -14/+1I wanna barf or run screaming for the hills

    • debuggercll, on 06/17/2008, -1/+8What a horrible thing to say about a child.

  • dhaugen, on 06/17/2008, -6/+12i...i dont know what to do
    • handheldchimp, on 06/17/2008, -1/+8(insert comment in text field)

      There ya go. The basic guidelines for what to do...
  • DentThat, on 06/17/2008, -10/+3uhm, if she is a reincarnation of a goddess, she should be able to walk and wouldn't need modern day surgery to save her life. Pff
  • yournightmare, on 06/17/2008, -2/+169That surgery probably cost an arm and a leg.

    Sorry, I haven't slept in 54 hours.
    • noahgelman, on 06/17/2008, -0/+16Nah, you're good. Well played
    • RMoore08, on 06/17/2008, -0/+11You could also say she got a leg up on her competition.
    • wushu18t, on 06/17/2008, -0/+11or, she put her best foot forward.
    • soupdawg30, on 06/17/2008, -0/+14She has lots of limbs
    • sdcarter, on 06/17/2008, -1/+1She's equipped to hand-le the situation.
    • darksideownedu, on 06/18/2008, -0/+1At least she'll never need you to lend a hand.
  • TheAtomicMoose, on 06/17/2008, -2/+7The picture looks like a spider is eating a baby.
  • Jason2008, on 06/17/2008, -7/+1Poor children
  • digga34, on 06/17/2008, -10/+8what.........the........*****......
  • J0h4n, on 06/17/2008, -6/+1Man, if she could control those limbs it would be awesome.
    She would be just like Goro from Mortal Kombat.
  • FiP0, on 06/17/2008, -3/+52That makes me want to play Spore ... :|
  • BarnacleBob, on 06/17/2008, -9/+2It's a terrible thing to happen to anyone and should engender sympathy, not the type of idiotic comment shown here.
    I believe the Hindu Goddess was 'Latchmi', too, - not 'Lakshmi'.
    • Kinnkster, on 06/17/2008, -0/+3A girl had a strange problem and now its fixed


      How terrible.
    • CatsAreGods, on 06/17/2008, -0/+1It's Lakshmi.
    • EmperorClyde, on 06/17/2008, -0/+1Well, I'm sure you know more about their god than they do.

  • ch4os1337, on 06/17/2008, -14/+37I just realized something... SHE HAS TWO VAGINA'S.

    Just putting that out there...
    • joshcxa, on 06/17/2008, -0/+2oh no...can you go there on digg?
      • ch4os1337, on 06/17/2008, -6/+1I guess you can... I bet someday shes going to go up to her mom and say "Why the ***** did you show my virgin on tv! Now No guy is going to ***** me!"

        To Much?
      • TomJohn, on 06/17/2008, -3/+1As long as you don't say anything bad about Arabs, you're apparently okay.
    • santaliqueur, on 06/17/2008, -0/+45She has two vaginas, too bad you've only got half a dick.

      Zing!
      • joshcxa, on 06/17/2008, -1/+9Most of us have trouble with just 1 vagina!!
    • awesometastic1, on 06/17/2008, -8/+14i suppose it's sad then that they are taking away her chance at being the ultimate porn star someday. I mean, two vagina's, to butt holes, one mouth, arms everywhere = epic gang bang.

      ok, i feel dirty now... *goes back to mother's basement*
    • nova912, on 06/17/2008, -3/+1lol Doug Stanhope would have a good time with this material...
    • fudged71, on 06/17/2008, -2/+2She needs a guy with Diphallia when she grows up

      not that I endorse your comment or anything

    • Nature1, on 06/18/2008, -0/+1Is that pretty much all your mind is geared towards?
      SAD.
  • handheldchimp, on 06/17/2008, -13/+2There was a video of her on youtube!

  • Carl306, on 06/17/2008, -2/+29I would hate to imagine what the mothers labor must have been like passing THAT through the vag.
  • sebnewall, on 06/17/2008, -1/+17she probably runs faster with a knife, everyone runs faster with a knife
