After taking a biopsy from his right leg Greg Foot - yes that is his real name - aimed to discover what cooked human meat tastes like.
During the experiment for his YouTube channel, BritLab, Foot bites into a burger containing the recreated taste of human flesh, taken from his own upper right thigh.
Travelling to a laboratory in Nottingham for part of the documentary, he says: “The truth is, it’s illegal to eat human flesh, even your own - but there is still a way to nail the taste.”
Together they 'make scientific history' and work out the aromas of cooked humans, before he tucks into a burger of similar smelling meats.
“So this is it, my cooked leg meat.. actually it smells quite nice, it’s really meaty though,” Foot adds after, sniffing the concoction.
He explains the smell of cooked meat is similar to “beef and ale stew”.
Viewers reacted strongly to the feature.
Commenting on their reaction, one viewer said: “I felt sick the whole time watching this. I still feel really nauseous...”
Another viewer said: “Seems a bit weird that it's illegal to eat your OWN flesh...”
