David Headless -

Born in 1967, David Headless was contrary to his name. A science phenomenon, he was just a head.

No legs, no arms, no torso. Just a …head.  He was happy. Feed him some soup and he squirted the rest of it out of a hole in his neck.

But his parents were tired of kicking him into bed. I mean? What you going to do with just a head? It also turns out that when they X-rayed him – his head was hollow. No brains. Just a grinning, glassy eyed head - sucking soup.

They could not afford David just doing nothing at all with his life – so at the age of 17, he was signed up with Manchester United as a professional football.

He scored a goal in his first game. Sadly – his first and last. The kick collapsed his skull, wrapped the defending goal keeper with his eyeballs on strings and leaked all over the rest of his soup.

But – a happy ending -

It was the FA cup final. Manchester United won 1-0 and you can see David’s preserved head in United’s Hall of Fame.
