Human Patents

For whatever reason one might have, is it possible to patent oneself? I mean, purely hypothetically, if I wanted to patent myself, could it be done? I know people would want to know why, and I could come up with some lengthy story that is completely lacking meaning to explain, but I am not going to. If anyone has any documentation on human patents, please tell me all about it.

Purely as a bit of a WAG – wouldn’t the right to patent you belong to your parents, who created you? Unless you remade yourself to a certain extent, then patented those changes?
