I remember reading about a guy who ate a shopping cart... did he just cut it into bits and swallow the metal shards and then shit them out? How is that a feat? Its just retarded.

I suppose you could powder all the metal (or non-metal) and mix it with some food and eat it. Not sure what metabolic effect it would have though.

That's as heavy as this gymnast:

any reason you picked this random gymnast?

Googled '59kg', and she was the prettiest thing to come out. Plus the idea of a snake being capable of taking her.

It would have to constrict her anyway, and a gymnast should be agile enough to escape that.

Damn, I keep on looking for this thread in 'humour'!

The largest thing I've ever swallowed was a whole marshmallow. It looked so soft and squishy, so I was very surprised when it hurt like a son of a bitch.

It's always the most innocent looking things that hurt us the most.

My girlfriend may appear to be a fluffy sheep in the pasture, but you get close enough to sniff her and you'll end up on your back!

Metal parts would be shit out, so it really is just passing a bus through your body.

Steven King wrote, somewhere, about a story line that came to him. He asked a doctor friend if a human being could swallow a cat.
The doc assured him that, if you try hard enough, almost anything is possible.

As i recall, King wasn't exactly overwhelmed with gratitude at the noncommital answer....
