Has anyone actually ever eaten shit and died?

[Redleg]

Has this phenomenon been scientifically documented or is it urban legend?

1. Well, with the right quantity, I'm sure it's possible

and then there's the old e.coli route

[baldguy]

2. I'm sure it's happened.

But then, if you eat too much of ANUTHING it would probably kill you.

3. The actor/actress Divine ate dog shit at the end of a John Waters movie

He/she lived, however.


Pink Flamingos, 1972

I've seen the scene in question, and it is utterly revolting.

4. Uggghhhh. I'm going to be sick.

barf

5. As a matter of fact, that's exactly what Divine did

It weren't pretty.

6. Yeah. And he died with a shit-eating grin on his face.

7. Ever actually seen someone "laughing all the way to the bank"?

8. That phrase also can be used to catorgize someone living a useless life.

They eat, shit and die.
Not much else.

9. And how come you never hear 'sack of shit'

without "lying" in front of it? :shrug:

Yes, you can die from eating shit.
