The Presenters of the Dutch TV show, Proefkonijnen, have caused a bit of a stink by engaging in a stunt involving the eating of each other's flesh.
Sky News reports that the two personalities had muscle surgically removed from their body for the stunt. While one host chose to have tissue removed from his abdomen, the other chose to have muscle taken from his buttock. The meat was then cooked by a chef and served to the presenters.
The two didn't comment on how the meat tasted but one of the presenters, Derek Storm, reportedly said, "It's weird to look into the eyes of a friend when you're chewing on his belly."

The first, not for the faint hearted, shows the presenters having operation to extract muscle from their bodies:
The second shows the stunt on TV (with an annoyingly edited conclusion):
