Frank Lentini, an American of Italian descent, was born with three legs of different lengths and two sets of genitalia due to an underdeveloped twin. This did not prevent him from learning to play soccer and ride a bicycle, and he later became a circus performer, got married, and raised four healthy children. Lentini not only entertained audiences with his "disfigurement," such as kicking a ball with one leg while walking on the other two, but was also an interesting conversationalist with a good sense of humor.
