The Brazilian Hulk

The new Avengers movie has struck a real chord with this 35yr. old Brazilian man. So much that he wanted to become the Hulk and decided to paint himself green......with submarine paint. Enrique Dos Santos wanted to be the real-life Hulk so bad  he used any paint he could find to make his dream come true. Turns out that the paint he used is reserved for ballistic missiles and nuclear submarines. I guess this type of paint is readily available down in Brazil. Dos Santos tried to get the paint off in the shower but it had already stained his skin. A local paper picked up the story and adding to the embarrassment of looking like a green asshole the paper reported the woman in the picture to be his girlfriend when in fact it's his mother. She kind of looks like the Hulk's type of lady. Dos Santos, his mother, and some friends from the neighborhood scrubbed the paint for 24 hours before it all came off. The whole thing wasn't a bust though, turns out while the paint was still on Dos Santos was a hit with local children who thought he was the real thing. I know I'll remember him too, as the asshole that painted himself green. Hulk SAD!!!
