If we’re going to go down that tangent, I remember a thread here where some poster said their coworker was the guy who voluntarily flew to Germany to be eaten by the German cannibal. Can anyone dig up that thread?

Edit: It was @Revtim in 2003: [An old colleague of mine was voluntarily cannibalized and killed. TM friggin' I.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/an-old-colleague-of-mine-was-voluntarily-cannibalized-and-killed-tm-friggin-i/166236)
