One man has spent over $33,000 on tattoos and body modifications. Despite the judgment he receives from others, he says his body mod journey is his source of joy.

Cameron Bright, has spent over 100 hours getting his body tattooed. He also has roughly 28 piercings, a split tongue, silicone rib implants under his collar bones.

He also has his septum, nose, and ears gauged, with some areas of his body having been stretched big enough for the body mod fanatic to put objects through them, which he often showcases on his TikTok page @Camdravya_Bright.

To top it off, the 28-year-old also has beads under the skin in his nether regions.

Speaking to The Mirror about how much he's spent on body mods, Cameron said he's probably spent more than $33,000 if he includes all the mods, tattoos, and piercings he's gotten since the age of 15. However, he noted the amount "doesn't seem like a lot when you look at other people's hobbies and aspirations ... They probably spend a similar amount on their project cars, sports, raves and concerts."

Though people aren't always kind about his unique look, he said altering his appearance allowed him to have a "better understanding" of who he was as a person, and taught him how to love himself.

Though he's cool with his looks, he said, "The most hate and rude remarks I get are from religious people, and it just doesn't make sense to me.

"Their God is described as a wonderful deity that I can respect, but the people don't practice what they preach."

Admitting he doesn't have a "legit answer" for why he wanted to heavily modify and tattoo his body, Cameron told the outlet, "I like to do what brings me joy," adding, "and this brings me joy."
