In fact, Chavez dedicated his entire life – 22 years – to the pursuit of an ideal.
Filipino Herbert Chavez transformed himself beyond recognition for a childhood dream – to resemble Superman.
He has undergone 23 plastic surgeries to look not like a dark-skinned Asian but like a blue-eyed superhero.
In fact, Chavez dedicated his entire life – 22 years – to the pursuit of an ideal. He is now 41!
How long can he continue to play the role of a young Superman? Can he find himself? A rhetorical question…
The only challenge the superhero cannot overcome is a beer belly.
Chavez even had to seek the help of a plastic surgeon. The latter advised him to engage in sports and stop eating chocolate at night.
Liposuction and 6 abdominal implants can affect his health.
For the same reason, he had to abandon another fixation – increasing his height. Because in comics, the superhero’s height is much taller than 170 cm.
For his appearance, the man paid $7,000, while the average salary in the Philippines is $1.4 per hour.
He doesn’t reveal the secret of how he earned money for all these operations, as he grew up in a very poor family. His father is a tricycle driver in Kalamba, and his mother is a street food vendor.
At the moment, the man works as a children’s animator. He enjoys entertaining children, giving them happiness, smiles, and hope.
