[custom_adv] An Illinois man claims he makes up to $8,000 a week from a mysterious skin condition he says makes cans and other items stick to his head.Jamie Keeton, 47, also known as Can Head, said he has made a living from his ability to act as a human suction cup.'My doctor explained to me that my skin pores act like suction cups, so things stick to me,' Keeton told Daily Mail Online.'My body heat is also hotter than normal, which makes the suction stronger,' Keeton said. [custom_adv] Keeton said his doctor told him he is the only person in the United States with this kind of suction capability. Keeton recently returned from Beijing, where he set the Guinness World Record for carrying the most cans on his head. [custom_adv] He said he kept eight cans on his head for a total of 10 seconds to set the record.'Of course I blew a lot of minds in China,' Keeton said.'My interpreter was stopped three times by the police, because I was walking around with cans on my head. Also I was in shorts and t-shirt even though it was like nine degrees out.' [custom_adv] Keeton said he first realized he was different when he was seven years old.'Toys started sticking to me. My parents thought it was just pine sap from climbing trees.''When I was younger I didn't promote it a lot,' Keeton said of his suction capability.'I was scared people would call me a freak.' [custom_adv] But as he grew older and realized he could make money off his bizarre talent, Keeton stopped caring about other people's opinions, he said.'People are like, "That's retarded," but now I'm paid to do it. How retarded is that?'Keeton said he can make up to $1,500 a day, and sometimes as much as $8,000 in a weekend, to stick cans on his head.
