The whole world learned about the strange hobby of a Japanese man named Toco a few months ago. The man had dreamed since childhood of becoming an animal, and as an adult, having saved up the necessary sum, he was able to make his wish a reality. Toco turned to a company that works with film studios and makes various figures for filming.
The designers were very surprised by the order, but decided to help Toco fulfill his childhood fantasy. They studied the appearance of the man's favorite dog breed – the border collie, examining every detail. And forty days later, a realistic, life-sized dog costume was ready.
The designers cut the costume according to the dog's skeletal structure, and the fur looks real.
«We collected hundreds of photographs of border collies taken from different angles so that we could reproduce the beautiful fur and also make it flow naturally», – say the costume's creators.
Having received the coveted costume, Toco began learning canine habits – walking on all fours, scratching, eating from a bowl, sleeping, playing. In short, living an ordinary dog's life.
«Since childhood I've had this vague fantasy – to become an animal. Maybe I was a dog in a past life?» — explains the Japanese man.
Toco started his own YouTube channel, and thousands of people follow him. Of course, there are also those who do not support the man's hobby, considering him abnormal. They even advise him to see a psychiatrist. But Toco sees nothing wrong in his desire to be a dog – he simply feels that way. The young man also has fans who support the dog-man and believe that everyone has the right to any dream.
Demand for pet rabbits has grown tenfold in Moscow By the way, the man was unable to open up to all of his relatives and friends. Toco puts on the dog costume, which cost two million yen (one million rubles in our case), several times a month. And he is a little afraid that his relatives, upon learning of his hobby, will not understand and will judge him.
