‘God’s Wonderful Work’: Boy Is Born with Natural Blue Eyes, Lightning Birthmark White Hair

Every child is beautiful and unique and deserves to be loved, protected, and cherished. However, one little boy captivated the virtual social space when videos and pictures of his extraordinary facial features surfaced online, sending the netizens into a frenzy.

Beauty is a highly subjective concept that varies from person to person. While some place more importance on physical attractiveness, others tend to give weightage to overall personality traits. Regardless, many might not apply these indicators to children because little ones are always considered beautiful.

Interestingly, there can be instances when a youngster’s striking and rare features stun the world at large, garnering attention, love, and a myriad of reactions from people far and wide. Something similar played out for the child in today’s story.

Rare & Beautiful

In August 2022, a man based in the Netherlands, Raoul Tsasa, turned to the popular video-sharing platform TikTok and shared three video clips of a “special child” that amassed an overwhelming response and viewership from the masses.

Much like the African youngster, a Wilmington, North Carolina family welcomed a baby girl with a white streak in November 2016.

He shared the first video on August 20, 2022, which showed a little black boy with blue eyes and a patch of natural white hair. Another feature that stood out on the youngster’s innocent face was a lightning streak, starting from his forehead and going all the way to his lips.
