The world’s most pierced man, 53-year-old Rolf Buchholz, has been barred from Dubai, where officials at the airport denied him entry when he was on his way to a hotel appearance.
Buchholz has 453 piercings and two horns protruding from his forehead.
They put him on a flight to Istanbul, Al Arabiya News reports.
Buchholz swore to never return to Dubai.
At the end I got an answer why I can't enter Dubai: The Immigration thought I am Black Magic.
On the way back home. Dubai I will never come back!!!
I am at Dubai airport. They let me not in the country. The luggage is lost. I am ok.
According to a spokesman for the hotel where Buchholz was scheduled to appear, the management failed, despite all its attempts” to win permission for him to enter the emirate.
Buchholz is an information technology worker and he was in the Guinness Book of Records in 2012 as the world’s most pierced man.

Doctors remove baby skeleton left Inside mother for 38 years
SUMMERVILLE, SC (WCSC) -A Summerville High School student who says he was arrested and suspended after writing about killing a dinosaur using a gun in a class assignment has hired a lawyer.
Attorney David Aylor, who is representing 16-year-old Alex Stone, said his client's arrest over a creative writing assignment on Tuesday was "completely absurd," and is seeking to appeal the suspension and "proceed with the legal issues of [Stone's] arrest."
“This is a perfect example of ‘political correctness' that has exceeded the boundaries of common sense," Aylor said in a statement released on Thursday."Students were asked to write about themselves and a creative Facebook status update – just days into the new school year – and my client was arrested and suspended after a school assignment."
The Summerville Police Department who arrested Stone on Tuesday on a charge of disorderly conduct is disputing Stone's account of his arrest.
"The information that is being reported is grossly incorrect in reference to what led to the juvenile being charged," said Capt. Jon Rogers in a Summeville police statement released on Thursday."The charges do not stem from anything involving a dinosaur or writing assignment, but the student's conduct."
Stone said he and his classmates were told in class to write a few sentences about themselves, and a "status" as if it was a Facebook page. Stone said in his "status" he wrote a fictional story that involved the words "gun" and "take care of business."
"I killed my neighbor's pet dinosaur, and, then, in the next status I said I bought the gun to take care of the business," Stone said.
Stone says his statements were taken completely out of context.

"I could understand if they made him re-write it because he did have "gun" in it. But a pet dinosaur?" said Alex's mother Karen Gray."I mean first of all, we don't have dinosaurs anymore. Second of all, he's not even old enough to buy a gun."
Investigators say the teacher contacted school officials after seeing the message containing the words "gun" and "take care of business," and police were then notified on Tuesday.
Summerville police officials say Stone's book bag and locker were searched on Tuesday, and a gun was not found. According to police, when Stone was asked by school officials about the comment written on the assignment, he became "very irate" and said it was a joke.
A Summerville Police Department report states that Stone continued to be disruptive and was placed in handcuffs, and was told that he was being detained for disturbing schools.
According to Gray, Stone was suspended for the rest of the week. Gray says she is furious that the school did not contact her before her son was arrested.
She says her son followed directions and completed an assignment.
"If the school would have called me and told me about the paper and asked me to come down and discussed everything and, at least, get his point-of-view on the way he meant it. I never heard from the school, never. They never called me," said Gray.
Stone and his mother say they understand the sensitive nature of what he wrote, but they say it was a rash reaction to an innocent situation.
"I regret it because they put it on my record, but I don't see the harm in it," Stone said."I think there might have been a better way of putting it, but I think me writing like that, it shouldn't matter unless I put it out towards a person."

A snake came back from the dead to deliver a deadly bite to a chef, 20 minutes after he had chopped its head off.
The chef was preparing a dish from cobra flesh when the snake’s head bit him, reports The Mirror.
Victim Peng Fan had chopped off the head of the Indochinese spitting cobra, a rare delicacy in Asia, to prepare for making the special dish.
But when he went to throw the severed snake head into the bin it bit him on the hand, injecting him with fast-acting, deadly venom.
Police say Mr Peng died before he could be given life saving anti-venom in hospital.
Restaurant guests reported hearing screams from the kitchen as the tragedy unfolded.
"We did not know what was happening but could hear screams coming from the kitchen.”, said restaurant diner Lin Sun, 44.
"There were calls for a doctor in the restaurant but unfortunately by the time medical assistance arrived the man had already died. After we heard that we did not continue with our meal."
A police spokesman said: "It is a highly unusual case but it appears to be just an accident. He prepared the snake himself and was just unlucky.
"There was nothing that could be done to save the man. Only the anti-venom could have helped but this was not given in time. It was just a tragic accident."

Experimental U.S. hypersonic weapon explodes during flight test
A new hypersonic weapon developed by the U.S. military exploded shortly after lift-off from an Alaska test facility during a long-awaited flight test early Monday, the Pentagon said.
No one was injured in the incident, which occurred shortly after 4 a.m. EDT (0800 GMT) at the Kodiak Launch Complex in Alaska, said Maureen Schumann, spokeswoman for the U.S. Defense Department.
"The weapon exploded during takeoff and fell back down the range complex," Schumann said.
The weapon was developed by Sandia National Laboratory and the U.S. Army, as part of the military's "Conventional Prompt Global Strike" technology development program which is seeking to build a weapon that can destroy targets anywhere on earth within an hour of getting data and permission to launch.
Schumann said officials from the program, the U.S. Army, Navy and Missile Defense Agency were conducting an extensive investigation to determine the cause of the accident.

[h=1]Elephants Dance and Sway to Violin Music[/h]
Eleanor Bartsch was performing with the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, during which she played Bach’s Concerto in D Minor. During the performance, she noticed two elephants outside a tent at the back of the Circus World Museum, who seemed to be reacting to the music. Eleanor wanted to see what would happen when she got a little closer, and wasn’t disappointed, as Kelly and Viola (aged 44 and 45) swayed and moved in time with the violin.
