A New Set Of Choppers

In a bizarre twist of the tale of man bites dog Francis Wharton lived in the wilds of Little Fort, British Columbia in the 1950s - 60s.

 

 

Far from civilization the resourceful Wharton found himself in need of upper dentures. 

Extracting the teeth from a deer and filing them down, Wharton set the deer's teeth in a base of plastic wood using household cement to keep them in place. 

Then he ate the deer...with its own teeth. 

If you are traveling nearby, make a point to visit the Museum of Healthcare in Kingston, Ontario.

His home built choppers are on display there.
