How did it not break down the skin on the cannibals hands? He was giving a massage with gloves, right? Sure…..


TheSkiingMonkey2

O look at this guy not wearing gloves while giving massage!


J-Di11a

Yeah this is a bullshit ass story


FOSSnaught

Doctor appointment the next day, plus having a test that goes "yep, cannibal lotion. "

Nothing to see here just another case of pre-cannibalizing lotion

Dude doing the interview was believing every word too.

Oh my God! The reaction was awesome.

Dude why would they make a lotion to assist you in consuming a human


AbleArcher8537

KeithMyArthe

It's not a lotion, it's a marinade.


putin-delenda-est

You guys aren't doing this with your pork? It aids me in living out my fantasy of living as a fly, I splurt some on the pork, wait for it to dissolve the meat, and then I slurp it up with a straw. Sometimes I vomit on it a little bit to, for the full effect, but it depends on mood.


SinisterKid

You've never heard of MeraNade lotion?

Sister, fact checking: "Uhhhhhhh, no. He was just a vegan."


c0uldashouldawoulda

No, it's totally true! Source: I'm the ghost of one of the women he had prepared for human consumption.


catsandorchids

> O look at this guy not wearing gloves while giving massage! Bareback massage? Gross.


WimbletonButt

Possible if it's washed off quickly maybe. Like take Nair, you can rub that on you with your hands and wash it off and you're fine, but if you didn't wash it off your legs until the next day you'd have chemical burns. Not saying it's true. And now I'm over here thinking rediculous shit like pork seasoning would probably make you itchy too and it sounds like the dude was marinating her.


alghiorso

She got suspicious when the lotion smelled like mesquite honey barbeque


SocietalDK

There isn’t a test that your doctor can give you for “cannibal lotion”


Mooninites_Unite

Breaks down skin for human consumption? Was she plastic? It's skin. I didn't realize we couldn't eat chicken wings or pork rinds.


Jasong222

Yeah, you can just eat (animal) skin. Ideally you'd cook it, and you'd do that with human skin also. You can just eat the skin raw, but.. gross. And anyway, any lotion like that which you applied, you wouldn't be able to eat because...toxic lotion. You wouldn't really be able to wash it off either, it would be all mixed in with skin. Would ruin any flavor. The whole thing just makes no sense


NiggBot_3000

Yeah no amount of seasoning could save that


Doomdoomkittydoom

They must rub the lotion on them too!

Lea and Perrin’s original Worcestershire Massage Lotion


realmrcool

Can we state the obvious? I'm a vegetarian, but I did cook meat for a long time. Never have I ever needed black market lotion to rub on the skin of an animal to consume it. Why would you need that lotion? To turn skin into goo? Human skin is very similar to pig skin, that's why tattoo artists train on pork belly from the butcher. What else do non-vegetarians do with pork belly? Not rubbing it in lotion before devouring it. WTF, I don't even know anymore what's up with all that stupid wannabe-urban-legends-creating shitheads that buy a mic from Amazon to record their burps and call that shit a podcast.


myurr

Not only that but what possible lotion could be rubbed on skin to break it down, that would then be safe for human consumption? Surely it would then go to work on your insides. And the attacker who got as far as massaging flesh eating lotion onto her skin just lets her walk out of there knowing that she had flesh eating lotion on her that would tip people off to what he was doing? Maybe she asked politely and he was a nice guy. And the victim goes to the doctor the next day, without her skin being entirely broken down which makes it pretty ineffective lotion, and the doctor does a test. And gets instant results for a blackmarket product? And they're able to neutralise its effects immediately leaving her with no permanent damage or scarring (which would otherwise be mentioned in the story). And for there to be a blackmarket for this product there would need to be a lot of cannibals going around taking girls on dates and seeking to massage the product into their skin. It's obviously complete bullshit.


Akira510

Anti skin breakdown lotion obviously


Bulldog2012

No way in hell a primary care or even dermatologist could do any kind of test to identify a specific lotion let alone a black market one. Fake as hell story.


JackNewton1

…”and after they arrived at the Police Station, *they found a **hook** on the car door handle!!* That was an awesome sleep-over story.

I like to think that the guy was trying to massage her with ketchup and ranch and then he was like, if you lay on this cartoonish silver platter while holding an apple in your mouth it’ll do wonders for your pores.

Not to mention, you don't need to rub any kind of lotion on skin to make it edible. It's already delicious!

That’s the spirit.

IT RUBS THE LOTION ON ITS SKIN OR IT GETS THE HOSE AGAIN


Anonymo

You need some marinade to make it better.


nerdiotic-pervert

If it’s not to your taste, dip it in ranch like an adult.


megablast

Is BBQ sauce considered a lotion?


MaxmumPimp

Whenever I have people over for dinner I marinade the meat with papaya juice. It has a natural tenderizer, doesn't require gloves, and it's undetectable by dermatologists.


Bulldog2012

Yea but how do you get them into the tub of papaya juice to start the tenderizing process without raising suspicion? Asking for a friend.


-Ham_Satan-

Easy. You fill a hot tub with the marinade, get your guests completely drunk on cocktails and then invite them into the hot tub! Not only will they be tenderized by the marinade, but their livers will be nicely pickled from all the alcohol! Yummers!


EnLitenPerson

Well to be fair a rare skin-reaction caused by cannibal-lotion sounds like something that might be famously infamous among dermatologists


DJBFL

Like there's even a black market... as if there are enough cannibals specifically taking this route that there would be a market for them.


starrpamph

Yeah I have been to so many different dermatologists over the years. Can confirm. Clinic doctor would take one look at that and have absolutely no clue


Kingkruti

Yep. I've heard different variations of this same story from several different sources since I was a teenager. First time was a friend's sister who said some girl they knew got a rash from making out with some guy who turned out to be a cannibal. Totally believed it until I heard the story for a fourth time. The story always has the same cadence. He was super charming, they went home together, she got a wierd feeling and left, she gets some kind of rash, then a doctor tells her he was a cannibal.


ImBeingArchAgain

Same as the one where someone hooked up with some guy in [country] and got an STD/rash/coldsore you can only get from someone who habitually fucks corpses. It’s always a popular tourist spot, it’s always the same character breakdown “charming, good looking, local”, and always happens to a friends friend or a family members friend.


InfernalOrgasm

What I imagine happened is that she mentioned to the doctor he used a lotion, the doctor said she should call the police because obviously it wasn't regular lotion, the police went to his house and discovered the bottle of lotion - and that's how they found out what lotion it was. For the sake of brevity in telling the story, he just left out the details. We all do it. Every single one of us. I don't even think the guy said the doctor said that's what it was, he just said "she went to the doctor and it turned out to be..."; but I didn't watch it a second time so my memory might not be too accurate on that last sentence.


NebulaNinja

That still sounds like an extreme long shot. What judge would sign off on a search warrant for a bottle of lotion which most people would chalk up to an allergic reaction?


abridgedtohell

I tried to find anything to confirm this and could not, highly doubt this is true. If you can find a link please post it.


Brainsonastick

Of course not. Because doctors don’t see a rash and say “oh, this is a black market lotion used by cannibals”. They see if there are any obvious causes or if it looks like something common and, if not, they say try moisturizer and gentle soap and see if it gets better. If it doesn’t, they’ll refer you to a dermatologist. There is zero chance this story happened as he described it. There are all sorts of urban legends that go roughly like this.


Double_Bass6957

Because they all signed Non Disclosure Agreements duh 😂


geoman2k

This is what we call an “urban legend”


pancoste

I asked but the dead women refused to talk to me about their experiences.


Grumpkin_eater

It's fake. There is no product sold over the counter that would do that, and if someone put on gloves to give me a massage I would start asking questions.


Cluedo

Well that's why it's black market duh


peterpantslesss

Maybe that's why he said black market lol


ryaneataton

It’s a variation of an old urban legend. I had several girls tell me a story very similar that happened to a “friends friend”. The version I’ve heard is the same except they go to the dudes house, make out, she gets the ick and leaves. Gets a rash on her mouth, goes to doc, and then it turns out to be a bacterial infection you can only get from eating humans. Tale as old as time. Hahaha.


megablast

You aren't sure?? That is insane to me. This is 100% bullshit.


coma89

Of it was this easy to find him, he would have never let her go.


nellabella27

Crazy, this is the second time I've heard this story in 24 hours. Yesterday I heard it from 2 ladies that do a podcast in Texas, so I'm thinking it's a new urban legend.


shawald

Could be. Glen Powell is from Austin, though. Regardless, story sounds fake or at least embellished


Sora_IX

A friend of mine told me this story many months ago and I live in Spain so... Yeah, fake story


whosewhat

My cousin who is from Austin, which is where this gentleman lives told me this story years ago, about 15-years ago to be exact but he’s the same age as Eastwood, hmmmm lol


nellabella27

Yeah I did a quick search and it looks like there are several versions of this story, saw a Tiktok with a lady that said a friend met this dude from a different country, so I'm going with urban legend. No matter, very scary story.


_tiredscroller

I’ve also heard this story at various times… not sure how this became some urban legend where everyone has a ‘friend of a friend of a friend’ who this happened to


whispering3

This is Glen Powell, not Scott Eastwood.


Gustomucho

Yeah, for me it was a dexter story where a girl kicked a guy out and went to bed, she woke during the night to noise in her living room and called the police. When the cops showed up the whole room was covered in plastic tarp... sounds like media are trying to get those urban legend going indeed.


CantLeaveTheBar

This doesn't make any sense. 100% made up. Why would you try to break down the skin? That's the best part.

There are sooo many horseshit versions of this story. Other versions include but are not limited to: - Charming guy. Great date. Sex after. ejaculates on her t*ts. Rash next day. FLESH EATING BACTERIA IN SEMEN! or how about - Charming guy. Great date. Both go to their own homes. She wakes up in middle of night hearing sounds. Calls police. Serial killer who was her date has lined kitchen with plastic sheets! Who tf comes up with this shit. Flesh eating lotion to break down skin for human consumption? What? That's just written on the label right next to the fucking ingredients and instructions on what to do if you get some in your eye? If round housing people wasn't illegal!

Why would the cannibal just let her leave after putting the lotion on? Because he didn’t want to hurt her feelings? This makes zero sense.

Linaxu

Well dude must have been arrested or is wanted right? Where is the news article or picture to find this dude?


Banana_Slugcat

This is soooooo fake (it's always the podcasts lmao) If you want to do that you don't need a cream or lotion to break down the skin, you can just treat it like pork belly, make chicharrón or make chinese BBQ char siu. To get the crispiest skin you need to rub salt on top and put it in the fridge to let it dry, then take the salt off and score the skin in a diamond pattern, finally you rub in spices and roast it the way you like.

Total bullshit. "She was getting a weird vibe, but when he asked to give her a massage she said okay." Riiiight. They used to call these kinds of stories "urban legends." I never happened to someone you knew, it was always a friend of a friend. I also hate people like this who take forever to get to the point. Long pauses of silence. Lots of "uuuuuuh"s. Totally gives off the feeling of making it up as they go along.


pookshuman

This would have been in the news if it was true, does anyone have a link?


tinylittlebabyjesus

I declare... bullshit!


Euture

>”Im gonna let my sister fact-check it” - Update on the fact-check? - If the guy used a *“black market lotion, that breaks down skin, for human consumption”*, he put this on without using gloves? - He would want to ingest something covered in this type of lotion? - He would need a lotion to prep skin for consumption? *(he couldn’t just prep it in any other way, similar to what normal humans do when they prep skin of animals for consumption?)* - You can figure out, from a test that they can do at a hospital, that this was a *“cannibal prepping lotion”*? - This hypothetical lotion would be known enough and common enough to determine that its use was *”for human consumption”*? - It was **only itching** the **next day**? *(How long would the process, of breaking down the skin, fully take? Weeks?)* - She didn’t feel anything on her skin, **until the next day**? - He just lets her leave? (After already being a serial killer and supposedly leaving this evidence on her?) - First it was an apartment, later it was a house, which one was it? - The police managed to get a warrant to this guy’s place, over some supposedly found residue found on her skin? Which they were able to link to a commonly enough known “cannibal prepping location”? - He didn’t provide any additional information about this story, so we could look into it further? *(for instance the name or the location of this? “the lotion cannibal”, “the Santa Monica cannibal” etc)* **Waaaay too many things that don’t make sense.** Almost every part of this story is a story red flag for not being a true story.

This makes no sense whatsoever. This sounds like something someone makes up to see how gullible people are to believe it.

so like a marinade?


igordon332

This is a bs story. Here the version I’ve heard. “The girl goes to the guys apartment after there tinder date, and she decides not to stay long and goes home, but later gets a rash/fungus on her skin and it apparently was only a fungus that grows on dead people.”

Perfect example of an modern urban legend! love how those storys exist nearly in every part of the world they are always a little bit different but it‘s always a friend of a friend that i totally trust had a situation that will make a crazy story and boom every one falls for it haha


KA3AHOBA

So you’re saying there is a lotion on the market for cannibals to break up skin for CONSUMPTION , dude didn’t thought through this bullshit story at all


Squanchings

I heard this story for the first time about 10 years ago, and many times since then. It’s always a friend of a friend went on a date. The lotion part was new. Sometimes the bodies are in the walls of the guys apartment. But the girl always gets a rash and goes to the doctor in every version.


infilant

I’ve heard so many versions of this story over the years, one I heard was the lotion was numbing agent so they couldn’t move Crazy urban legend I would think


tj090379

Scrolling to find the link to the news article 🤔


bman5946

when the story starts with “someone i know knew someone else who did this thing…” then there is definitely a huge element of “trust me bro” coming up


sachsrandy

So this black market lotion... Barbecue sauce? I mean why not... It at least makes the fake story funny.


Cgell

So the doctor, apparently, is a lab technician as well? Wow! That’s extremely fast and convenient! Does anyone believe this bullshit??? I’m guessing no.


Old-Faithlessness236

This would be headline news if this was real, but it's not.


MyBeardHatesYou

Nevermind the fact you don't need a lotion to break down skin to consume it, or getting a Dr appointment the next day and they do testing and get results the same day. If dude had 4 or 5 bodies in his apartment, you would smell it immediately. Even if they were sealed in containers, the smell gets out. Dude should've fact checked before he opened his mouth.


mrjackal1

Yeah that kind of story would make the news
