15. It Isn’t a Childhood Photo of Chewbacca

If you have seen Star Wars, the original trilogy, then you are undoubtedly familiar with the man-like beast known as Chewbacca. This haunting historical image might look like a photo of him as a child, and as you can see, he was pretty distinguished from a very young age. Actually, this photograph is of a boy who suffered from Ambras Syndrome. Ambras syndrome occurs when an error in someone’s genome causes the gene that causes hair to grow to repeat itself repeatedly, like someone is constantly hitting copy and paste on the DNA.
