Most
piercings world-record holder has been refused entry to Dubai - claiming
officials were worried he may practise black magic.
Rolf
Buchholz, who has horn implants and more than 100 piercings on his face alone,
said he was forced to cancel a nightclub appearance in the emirate.
He
told the Associated Press that immigration agents initially stamped his
passport and let him through, but that he was stopped again before he was able
to exit customs.
The
club said airport authorities cited "security reasons" in denying him
entry, but the heavily tattooed 55-year-old said airport workers told him
officials were concerned he could be a practitioner of black magic.
"I
got never an official answer," he said.
"They
are friendly but nobody answers your questions."
In
addition to his body art and faux horns, Mr Buchholz has a record 453
piercings, many of them on his face and genitals, according to Guinness World
Records.
Airport
and immigration officials referred questions to the police, who could not be
reached for comment.
Mr
Buchholz, an information technology professional from Dortmund, Germany, had
been scheduled to appear at the Cirque le Soir nightclub in Dubai's Fairmont
Hotel on Friday.
