A MAN who got breast implants in order to fulfill a high-stakes bet that won him US$100,000 is finally looking to have them removed nearly 20 years later.

    Brian Zembic, a 55-year-old gambler and magician from Canada, appears on Tuesday night’s episode of the E! reality series “Botched” in the hopes of having Los Angeles-based surgeons Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif rid him of the implants, which he had only intended on keeping for a year.

    In a clip from the episode, Zembic proudly whips out his 38C breasts from underneath his pink button-down shirt and announces: “These are my US$100,000 boobs.”

    “I’m a gambler and a magician. There are very few things I wouldn’t do for a bet,” he explained.

    Zembic, who has a history of making outrageous bets, admitted that he once lived in a friend’s bathroom for a month and slept under the 59th St. bridge with US$10,000 wrapped around his ankle for a week — all to complete wagers he had made with his friends.

    And like most bets, the one Zembic would become most known for was thought up during a seemingly innocent conversation with his buddies in 1996.

    “It was about 1997-ish I was in some restaurant in Europe and I was with two friends and his girlfriend at the time was flaunting her boobs and I said to my friend, ‘If I had boobs like hers I could get just as much attention as she would,’” he recalled.

    Zembic’s bold statement inspired one of his friends to ask him how much it would cost for him to put his money where his mouth is.

    “He came up with US$100,000 and I shook his hand and that was it, it was a bet,” Zembic said.

    After the wager was put in motion, Zembic used his gambling skills to score the pricey procedure for free.

    “I knew a plastic surgeon that was also a gambler in New York, so I went to his office and I said, ‘Can you put boobs in for me?’ And all he said was, ‘This is for a bet, right?’”

    Zembic, who has a 16-year-old daughter named Mika, admitted that his desire to have surgery was to fulfill a wager, and when the plastic surgeon asked him how he was going to pay for breast augmentation, the gambler suggested a “little bit of backgammon.”

    “I played backgammon with him for an hour; I won US$5,000. Boom, surgery was for free, and I woke up with boobs,” he said of the infamous procedure, which took place in October 1996. “They really did look nice, and now I can see why women do certain poses, like push the boobs together, turn the twist to make the boobs look nice,” he noted.

    The bet stipulated that Zembic needed to keep the implants for one year in order to win the full US$100,000, but his friend offered to buy out the bet for US$50,000.

    However, Zembic refused the out and kept the implants in for a full year before his friend deposited US$100,000 in a Swiss bank account.(SD-Agencies)
