    Get a load of this...

    Thank you Mamamax for posting this earlier today, but it HAS to have it's own thread.

    This appears to be the actual Dr. Weiss (of the Schroth fame), possibly singing in his OWN video on YouTube. Appears to be made in the early 1990s, judging by the clothes and hairstyles, as well as the copyright that appears below. You have got to check this out, if not for the shock value than for a laugh. Personally, it scares me.

    Here is what is posted on YouTube below the video:
    "Music and words: Bibi Doc © 1995 - 2010, converted from DVD format by using iSkysoft DVD Ripper freeware.
    This project has been established for patients suffering from scoliosis and needing a correcting brace. The idea arose from the experience, that many patients with scoliosis suffer from brace treatment a lot and also those who would not admit this. So it seems necessary to support self imaging of this group of patients because they have a spinal curve, but they are certainly not crooked and very lovely........"

          Wowza, what a PERV! And aren't those young ladies a little old to be wearing braces?

          I find the last video the most disturbing as he's loving caressing the torso molds. I would never let him near my child, that's for sure.

            Gayle,

            I was going to use the word 'creepy' - but disturbing is just as accurate.

                  Fortunately I had to watch this on mute as my hubby is sleeping. He looks like a creepy rock star wannabe. Very SCARY...

                      Some Weiss lyrics:

                      Get the brace
                      Get the brace
                      You wear that sexy hardware
                      Get the brace
                      All the boys will love her.
                      Get the brace
                      The boy don't want no other
                      Get the brace
                      For there's no better lover
                      YEAH!
                      I ask the jury....
