https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarrare
"...doctors could not keep him on a controlled diet; he would sneak out of the hospital to scavenge for offal in gutters, rubbish heaps and outside butchers' shops, and attempted to drink the blood of other patients in the hospital and to eat the corpses in the hospital morgue. After being suspected of eating a toddler he was ejected from the hospital." For those who don't want to read, a comedic but informative video on him: Boy, I'd tried real hard to forget about this after learning about him in high school. Every few years though, I stumble back upon it and get to re-experience the horror once more. What a world. --- FFRK: BRKB - Eiko - Guardian Mog FFBE: 885,063,087 - Orlandeau - 931 ATK ...

Prader-Willi Syndrome. Doesn't explain the severe physical deformities. Besides, he was under weight his entire life, and no mention is made of any form of intellectual impairment. I mean, he definitely had some form of polyphagia, but he either had some incredibly rare condition that caused it, or he was the world's first and worst X-man. --- FFRK: BRKB - Eiko - Guardian Mog FFBE: 885,063,087 - Orlandeau - 931 ATK ...

Wow, this is some seriously interesting stuff. Never heard about this before Yup. When I was in high school I took AP anatomy, and after each huge exam or lab, the teacher would spend a week talking about medical oddities to let us "cool down". Tarrare, Andre The Giant, Phineas Gage, Giovannina Conchiglia, Joseph Merrick, stuff like that. Always enjoyed learning about strange things. --- FFRK: BRKB - Eiko - Guardian Mog FFBE: 885,063,087 - Orlandeau - 931 ATK ... Copied to Clipboard!

Despite his unusual diet, Tarrare was slim and of average height.[9] At the age of 17, he weighed only 100 pounds (45 kg; 7 st 2 lb).[1][5] He was described as having unusually soft fair hair and an abnormally wide mouth, in which his teeth were heavily stained[9] and on which the lips were almost invisible.[10][11] When he had not eaten, his skin would hang so loosely that he could wrap the fold of skin from his abdomen around his waist.[9][10] When full, his abdomen would distend "like a huge balloon".[6] The skin of his cheeks was wrinkled and hung loosely, and when stretched out, he could hold twelve eggs or apples in his mouth.[11][12] That is terrifying and awesome. --- Everybody to the Limit ...
