Answer 1

It is not a demon baby and it doesn't have a birth defect. The disease is actually genetic, it's caled harlequin disease and the only difference between this child and other children is that he grows  the same amount of skin in 15 mins as we do in 24 hours. It is horrific and painful and people should not make fun of it or point the children out as 'DIFFERENT' because inside they are the same.

Answer 2

Harliequin Ichythiosis

It's caused by the thickining of keratin in fetal tissue.

Answer 3

OMG the poor little thing.

Why did you post it? Now I won't be able to get it out of my head!

I was expecting just a hair lip or something.

Answer 4

I hope you didn't post it to be as mean as the @$$^0!e who described it as a demon baby-it's sad that people laugh at things like these; the baby obviously has a condition, a disease; no one deserves to be made ridiculed or singled out on the world wide web and be put up as amusement to others; I'm sorry I watched the video, and I hope no one else watches it as though it's some sort of freak at at the circus.

This is a BABY with a serious disease; I'm disgusted that someone would take this video and label it the way this insensitve jerk did and then post it as a joke or laughing matter. It is not either one. I'm so upset by this...

Answer 5

Its called "Harlequin  ichthyosis"

Answer 6

i don't know but i was scared to watch it!

I feel bad, but at the same time it looks freaky.

Answer 7

his development in the womb might have made him like that. or he could have been mutilated somehow.

Answer 8

sorry...I can't watch stuff like that

Answer 9

I almost watched it, until i saw the caption say demon baby. I dont need to have any nightmares tonight.

edit okay i saw it. The baby has harlequinn disease, google it u should see the description on wikipedia. He will most like die before 16. its very sad.

Answer 10

It looks like the baby may have not been developed all the way in the womb. I'm not sure though I have never seen anything that bad, but it looks like it didn't grow right during pregnancy.
