the man who ate his lover

I watched a program on Channel 4 this evening called Bodyshock: The Man Who Ate His Lover

“Disturbing programme about two German men who met in 2001 to act out the most extreme of sado-masochistic cannibalistic fantasies. ”

Here’s the cartoon version

What made me laugh was the advertisements in the break. Armin Meiwes, the man who did the killing and eating, found his willing participant (or victim?) on the internet so there was an ad for Tiscali broadband. Brandes, the man who was killed an eaten, didn’t eat any food on the day of killing so his bowels were empty and so the meat would taste nicer. There was an ad for Senna constipation relief. Well it made me laugh.
