I’m a human gun because my piercings can shoot: Body modification addict
This guy redefines the phrase “shooting off at the mouth.”
A Mississippi body-modification “addict” is being dubbed a “human gun” after demonstrating how he can incredibly shoot pellets through a gaping hole in his chin. TikTok videos spotlighting the hole-y man’s bizarre body-shot display have racked up hundreds of thousands of views — and more than 1 million likes — as of Tuesday afternoon.
“I’ve had people call me stupid or ignorant for ‘destroying my body,’ or they ask if there’s something wrong with me,” said Colton Pifer, 29. The ginger construction worker boasts a whopping 36 piercings — including in his septum and penis. He also sports a split tongue, a la the Komodo dragon, and a smorgasbord of body ink, including facial tattoos.
Perhaps most noteworthy is Pifer’s chin piercing, which he has used a face expander on to create a permanent hole. The human pincushion frequently uses this chin chasm to, upon popular request from his over 20,000 TikTok followers, demonstrate a variety of party tricks, from blowing smoke through it to using it like a Super Soaker.
In his latest clip, posted in response to fan who dubbed him a human weapon, Pifer can be seen using his makeshift second mouth to fire off a bunch of Airsoft pellets. He simply puts a bunch of the plastic BBs in his mouth — and then spits them through the hole like a human pitching machine.
Commenters on his TikTok account have declared the now-viral clips simultaneously “badass” and “disturbing.”
Needless to say, TikTok was overjoyed that he put his gun-ny where his mouth was.
“And I’ve seen everything now,” gushed one awestruck fan, while another declared the video “the best thing i’ve seen all day.”
“Don’t ask me why I save this,” said another admirer of the trick shot. “I just need proof if i ever bring this up.”
One TikTok wit joked about what would happen if Pifer ever went to a BB gun battle, quipping: “Goes to air soft battle: where’s your gun? You: I AM GUN.”
Go figure: The human firearm said his myriad piercings have garnered him plenty of stares from strangers.
“People out in public stare at me all the time,” the porous soul told NeedToKnow.com and Jam Press, adding that fortunately he’s had mostly positive interactions.
“I’ve had people stop me in public just to look at my tattoos and admire them,” said the extreme body modifier. “I even had this older lady stop me one time and she says, ‘I don’t mean this rudely, but I have just got to stare at you for a second! You look so different, I really like it!'”
Pifer, for one, couldn’t imagine life without his piercings. “My favorite piercing is probably my septum, mainly because I’ve been able to stretch it so big,” the epidermal perforator boasted. “It’s about an inch now, and I still have plans on stretching it further.”
He added that the most painful was probably the apadravya — a genital piercing that goes through the top of the penis head out through the underside — which was “pretty intense getting it done.”
Despite his Swiss cheese-esque skin, Pifer says there’s still plenty of holes in his piercing arsenal that he’d like to get filled. In the future, he plans to get 8mm holes punched out of his nostrils, and even adorn his body with faux growths.
“I don’t have any yet, but I plan on getting some in the future,” said Pifer. “Whether it be horn implants, hand implants or arm implants, I just want some sort of implants in my body. I think that would look so cool.”
Ultimately, the body-mod hobbyist says his appearance is a prime example of how looks can be deceiving: “Some people are too quick to judge based off appearances, and if you watch any of my videos, you’ll see that I’m actually just a normal, goofy individual. I just happen to really like body mods!”
