My curiosity in the auction platform got the best of me. I couldn't understand the 2D images shared. I knew it was far from traditional.

A direct link to Instagram should allow ones to view it without an account. This thing is crazy! I'm pondering scarification on the base. But a short snippet of video.

Interesting trunk indeed!
Seems to have roots from several places on the trunk. Possibly a couple of seedlings fused or maybe a single trunk twisted wildly that has grown some extra roots from the trunk. I noted that my wired and twisted JM do this regularly, especially when the wire starts to bite into the trunks. Severely twisted seedlings can also end up similar to this where the trunk fuses back onto itself so loops appear and the trunk appears to grow straight out of a knot in the trunk.

I'll certainly be interested to see what you can do with it.

Appreciate your take. Because...I was quite curious. Thanks for sharing...what possibly created this misfit.

Its an odd one. Those truly make me smile. Thanks again.
