Title: Eric Ducharme, the mermaid man who is a good deal
Eric Ducharme, the mermaid man who is a good business designs and produces fish tails for women and girls who want to fulfill their dreams.
He is only 22 years old, but he is becoming known for his passion: being a mermaid or mermaid. American Eric Ducharme has made the headlines of the media for his fixation on wearing a beautiful and colorful fish tail, just like Barbie in her movie Mermaidia, an issue to which her boyfriend has become accustomed.
But the truth is that his passion for mermaids, which began at the age of 6 when his parents - for a birthday present - made two mermaids swim in a Florida lake, has now become big business.
Since he was 16 years old, Eric has dedicated himself entirely to designing fish tails of the most incredible materials and colors and today his endeavor has achieved notoriety because among others, they have attracted the attention of Lady Gaga.
The Mertailor is the company that provides these designs to women and especially girls who want to become mermaids. But not everything has been easy because it does not achieve the understanding of many.
Still, along the way Eric has found support, not only from his mother, but also from others who like to be mermaids like Barbara Wynss, who gave him his first tail and taught him to dive.
Today this young man is the visible face of his company, he spends most of his time in the water and today he has every chance of becoming an excellent entertainment business, not only for children, but also for adults.
"When I put my tail on, I feel like I'm entering a different world," he says. He adds that it took him a long time to find his place in life and now he's sure he wants to be a merman, not Triton.[1]

L'incroyable histoire d'Eric Ducharme, l'homme qui veut être une sirène

Title: The incredible story of Eric Ducharme, the man who wants to be a mermaid
By La Rédaction (Editorial Staff) on April 12, 2013 at 09:52

Eric Ducharme made his childhood dream come true: to become a mermaid. Today, he swings the freshwater lakes of Florida using a long fishtail that he made himself. The young American shares his passion through a collection of fishtails available on his site The Mertailor. Would the gates of the Siren Kingdom open?
Eric Ducharme lives like a mermaid. After putting on his fishtail, the 22-year-old tirelessly roams the peaceful waters of Florida, according to the Daily Mail. "I eat, breathe and sleep like a mermaid. It's my choice of life," said Eric Ducharme in a report on the American television channel TLC's "My Crazy Obsession".
The mermaid man swims three times a week for over an hour and a half, always dressed in his fishtail costume. "I was looking for alligators when I saw a tail that I had never seen before," testified a still confused man. This crocodile enthusiast had then discovered the beautiful fin of the long orange tail of the man-mermaid. An appearance that left more than one spectator speechless. "When I wear a mermaid tail, I feel transformed. I feel like entering a new world when I dive into the water. Underwater, I feel totally out of the world", Eric says, at least until he loses his breath underwater ...
"Eric is obsessed with mermaids"
At first surprised, his family accepted Eric's "lifestyle". As for her boyfriend, Matthew Quijano, he was immediately under the spell of the man-mermaid. "When I met Eric, I was introduced to the subject of mermaids on our first date," says Matthew, quite fascinated by his companion's activity.
"Eric is obsessed with mermaids," said his mother, Candy Ducharme, before adding "We have our own passions. That's Eric's life." Indeed, at the age of 16, he created his first show in which he played "The Prince of the Sirens". The show of his life without a doubt. "I looked for a long time to which world I belonged to," says Eric before plunging back into the water. Because today, living like a mermaid has become her job.
Mermaid and entrepreneur
As a child, Eric already made his own mermaid tails using trash bags, before becoming a real designer good enough to sell his pieces. A few years later, Eric created a website, The Mertailor, on which he sells his creations in the shape of a mermaid tail.
Today, living like a mermaid has become her job. From various materials, he makes shimmering costumes in the shape of a fishtail which are now his pride. Her mermaid tails are "as realistic as that of a newly caught fish, available to women and men who wish to become mermaids and who dream of living in the sea", according to the site of Eric, "The Mertailor". But becoming a mermaid comes at a price: count 2,100 euros to have the most beautiful fishtail.[1]
