A Japanese man has spent roughly £12,480 on a hyper realistic border collie costume just so he can look – and live – like his favourite breed of dog.
Whilst some people spend millions just to look like their favourite celebrity, this man has dedicated his life savings to becoming a dog. Spending around two million Yen, he finally made his dream come true of living like a pet dog.
A talented costume company, Zeppet, made the man’s dream happen. The agency is known for creating sculptures and models for movies, and this man, who identifies as Toko, has used their services to gain a canine lifestyle.
It reportedly took Zeppet 40 days to finish the costume as Toko kept adding improvements to make it perfect. Toko explained to news outlets that the costume won’t look realistic if he moves too much, but other than that, it’s exactly what he dreamed of.
He went on to open a YouTube channel, posting a now viral video of himself in the costume titled: ‘I tried to become a collie.’ The video and other images of him rolling around and lifting his paws, garnered thousands of views.
