Killing someone is messy business but somebody's got to do it. Granted it's not for the weak of heart or those with a sensitive stomach but it's a chore all the same. The killing part isn't all that hard, it's stashing the corpse that can lead to ulcers and migraines.

The next time you set out to murder another human being choose one of these simple disposal methods instead of dumping your dead bodies in the dumpster.

Feed the Fish
This is perhaps one of my favorite methods of disposal. It's somewhat messy and requires planning but it is a fool proof way to get rid of the evidence. Body bags and transport pouches will not be needed.

Once your victim is no longer breathing drag them out into the backyard. Spread a tarp on the ground, preferably a big black tarp, and plug in your industrial sized wood chipper. Vecoplan makes some nice ones. Feed the body into the chipper. Beware of flying chunks of flesh and spraying blood.

Make sure that the flesh mulch is spewed onto the tarp or into an appropriate sized container. Body parts should be mulched small enough as not to be recognizable.

Once all body parts have been turned into mulch, you'll want to use an antibacterial cleaner that contains a lot of bleach to clean out the inside and outside of the wood chipper.

Then simply gather the murder victim's mulched body parts and head out to a lake or even better an ocean, if you happen to have a boat, all the better. Spread the body parts on the water and let the fish gobble it up. No one will ever know what happened to the body. Water that has sharks or other flesh eating fish is best.

Serve Your Fellow Man
When it comes to removing a dead body, getting rid of all the body parts is crucial. Use the bathtub for minimal mess when chopping up the body. Sharp knives, hacksaws and axes work best for dismemberment. Throw a dinner party and serve your victim to your guests. Leg bones make excellent stock for soups and stews. Any left over bones can be fed to the dogs or baked until they can be crumbled up and spread around a garden later.

how long, using just an axe saw and a knife would it take to dismember a body into six pieces. Ie to chop off the head, the arms and the legs?

I am frm India n i knw somethinglike 'serve the fellow man' had happened in India in the year 1996, where a man chopped the body of his 'keep' and sold it to a restuarant ,which was served as tandoor (something relished by the Indians).

Human flesh is just nasty because of bad, fatty diets.

I just compost them. Really, with about a foot of sawdust under the body and a couple feet on top of it, the neighbors never notice anything. Except the lack of door-to-door salesmen and religious recruiters. An you should see how well my veggies are growing!

Good article! Also, with the "bodybag" link we know where to get them.

Just a tip on the "chop the body in to a million tiny bits" part. That's not as easy to do as you may think. Trust me... I've tried it. No really, I'm not kidding. In Gross Anatomy class in Medical School, I spent a semester trying to dissect a cadaver... it's HARD work. Bones, ligaments, tendons, tissues... aren't as easy to cut through as you may think. To do a proper job, you are going to need power tools. We used a circular saw for the skull getting through the rib cage. Not to mention the spine, damn that part was hard. Household kitchen knives aren't going to "cut it". Great article though... had me laughing.

Love this one Kelly! It inspired me to publish one that I had written too.. http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/405441/prove_to_yourself_and_others_that_you.html I linked to yours at the end.

Wow! Yea that's all I can say sorry! I am at a loss for words!

You have got some really ideas here. I've always been partial to the Arsenic and Old Lace method. Thanks for the additional ideas, though.

Bathtub. Bleach. Mum's the word.

In James Bond, the crims hid their drugs in draws full of maggots. When James kills one of the muscle(henchman) he puts the corpse into the draw. Why can't we do this to clean the flesh of bones so there is only a small amount of bones to be powdered. Maybe leaving the Skull and jaw - for facial reconstruction; a thighbone - or whatever the forensic anthropologists use to determine a person's height(via the relative proportions of the bones); and maybe the pelvis - easy to determine the gender of the person being placed in the ossary

Sharpen the knife first you idiot! ROTFLMAO! Great stuff, Kelly. I adore your imagination.
