 Would you believe if I tell you that once there was a man named Michel Lotito who ate an entire 4-seater Cessna airplane. 

Yes, it's true Michel Lotito- known as (Monsieur Mangetout) was born on 15 June 1950, in Grenoble, Ferance who was famous for deliberately consuming indigestible object. 

It took Michel roughly 2 years from (1978-1980) to finish eating that airplane completely. He done it by first breaking down that plane into small parts and then started consuming and digesting each part. Apart from this it is estimated that between 1959 to 1997, Lotito had eaten nearly 'nine tones of metal'. his method of consuming it was same as first break them down into small pieces before eating them. He then drank mineral oil and continued to drink water while swallowing the metal bits, which acted as lubricant to help the metal slide down his throat.

How Michel was able to eat those strange things.

Michel was suffering for a rare medical condition known as 'pica', which is a psychological disorder characterized by an appetite for a substance that are usually non-nutritive and strange. Michel Lotito began eating unusual material at 9 years of age, and he performed publicly beginning in 1966.

His stomach lining was also twice as thick as normal person's stomach and he had usually strong digestive juices that were usually powerful which can digest almost anything, this is why he was able to eat and digest those strange objects without harming his body.
