Bodyshock

The Man Who Ate His Lover (1x5)

:

On 9 March 2001, Armin Meiwes, a computer engineer from the tiny village of Wüstefeld in Germany, cut off the penis of Bernd Brandes, a software designer from Berlin. The pair had met on the internet and shared cannibalistic erotic fantasies, culminating in their both trying to eat Brandes' freshly severed penis. Three hours later, Brandes was still alive, but slowly bleeding to death. Meiwes decided to finish him off by stabbing him in the throat, and then eat 20kg of his flesh, taking the time to film the whole thing. Now that Meiwes has been tried for murder, Bodyshock is able to tell the astonishing tale of two men's twisted imaginations and the gruesome climax of their whirlwind romance.
