Definitely One to Miss

Never think humanity is already as weird as it can get:

A new Indian documentary focuses on a secretive sect of Hindu ascetics who eat corpses in the belief that ingesting dead flesh will make them ageless and give them supernatural powers.

"Feeding on the Dead," a 10-minute documentary, delves into the little-known world of the Aghori sect, whose holymen pluck dead bodies from the Ganges River in northern India.

I wonder what they do when a member of their sect grows old and dies?

No, wait. I don't want to know.
