The Amazing Water Man: Dixon Oppong
Dixon Oppong, a native of Ghana, has gained fame for his incredible ability to perform wonders with water. He possesses a rare talent of being able to accumulate water in his stomach, making him a human hydrant. Oppong first drinks a tremendous amount of water and then is able to release it using his stomach as a pump. Specialists who have tested Oppong's astounding talent have concluded that his stomach can hold four times more liquid than that of an average person.
Drinking Water Like a Pro
Oppong drinks water in a remarkably professional manner. He simply tilts a two-liter bottle over his open mouth, and the water effortlessly flows from one vessel to another. But the most astonishing part comes later when Oppong regurgitates the consumed water. While anyone can induce vomiting and "bring back" the liquid they drank, Oppong differs from ordinary individuals in that he doesn't require any gag reflex or convulsions to pour out his water. He stands relaxed, almost clownishly, and releases a stream of water from his mouth with considerable force. Doctors have discovered that there is no miracle involved; Oppong has simply mastered the control of the muscles in his esophagus.
The Living Attraction
Dixon Oppong is truly a living (and even walking) attraction. He is often referred to as the Water Man or the Human Pump. Interestingly, he doesn't mind earning a little money with his unusual talent and actively promotes himself. Apart from his water tricks, Oppong also utilizes his extraordinary stomach in another way - he participates in eating competitions, gaining fame for being able to devour seven different dishes simultaneously.
