“So he tried to eat it more or less raw and of course, it was too tough. “We had agreed to eat it half and half, but he was getting faint and couldn’t wait for his half to be cooked through,” the cannibal said. Meiwes began cooking the severed penis – sautéing it with garlic, salt and pepper. Meiwes bandaged the wound with towels and Brandes sat upright in a chair, his eyes glazed over. He did – and completed the unspeakable act. Writhing in pain, Brandes, 43, demanded that Meiwes get a sharper knife. The cannibal chopped at the organ, but failed to sever it. After placing his penis on a kitchen table, computer expert Bernd-Jergen Brandes issued that unthinkable command to German cannibal Armin Meiwes.Ī home video made by Meiwes, 42, detailed the sickening events that followed on March 10, 2001.
