Michel Lotito (b. 1950 – d. 2007), aka ‘Monsieur Mangetout’ (Mr Eat All), was a French performer who truly earned his nickname.
Metal, rubber, glass; you name it, he ate it. For his efforts, he was awarded the record for the world’s strangest diet, although we acknowledge that ‘strangeness’ is neither objective nor measurable, thus the record title has now been rested.
Lotito is perhaps best known as the man who ate an entire airplane, however, he also enjoyed feasting on bicycles, razor blades and other seemingly inedible objects.
