HOLY TAIL: 12-yr-old Boy Grows Tail, Hailed As 'god' In India

Followers flock to Arshid Ali Khan’s temple — often leaving cash or gifts in return for a blessing.
They believe the youngster — Balaji to his devotees — is the reincarnation of Hindu monkey god Hanuman. But doctors say he has meningocele, a form of spina bifida where the spinal cord develops abnormally.
Balaji, who lives with his grandparents near Chandigarh, said:“I love my tail. It’s a gift from God. It’s unusual but people respect me and bow before me because of it. I feel special.”....See pics after the cut:
