UK man Diablo Delenfer, formerly known as Gavin Paslow, used approximately $5,700 of unemployment benefits received while working at various security jobs to pay for body modifications that would make him look like the devil.
The devilish body modifications that the 39-year-old received included a forked tongue, horns and green eyes. He also legally changed his name to Diablo Delenfer, which he says means “devil from the inferno”.
Delenfer pleaded guilty last April to seven times “failing to promptly notify the Department for Work and Pensions of a change in circumstance that he knew would affect his benefit claims.” He was subsequently sentenced to perform 200 hours of community service, which he was unable to complete due to ill health.
Speaking of himself, Delenfer said:
Obviously, there aren’t many people who look like me and some might be a bit taken aback.
But other people realize I’m an almost normal human being in other ways and the kids love it.
As a substitute punishment, Delenfer has been fitted with an electronic tage and issued curfew order that prevents him from leaving his house in Seasalter, Kent between the hours of 5pm and 5am every day.
