    I remember as a kid hearing that Marilyn Manson had his bottom two ribs removed specifically so he could do this.

    I wonder how popular that rumor was.

      Back in my teens that was basically common “knowledge”. And that’s Central/Eastern Europe.

      Extremely popular. That rumor spread across North America like wildfire without any Internet to help it along on its journey.

      It was a world wide rumor with many variations. There are other artists that get thrown into the rumor as well. It’s reached urban legend status at this point.
