This week, we uncover the lives of history’s most notorious "big eaters"—from Tarrare, a Frenchman with a hunger so insatiable it defied belief, to Charles Domery, whose wartime cravings shocked his captors, and Michel Lolito, who consumed the unimaginable with astounding ease. These individuals turned their bizarre conditions into stories that continue to fascinate and horrify us today.
Discover the strange, the grotesque, and the inexplicable in this episode that delves into human extremes like never before.
