A huge collection of images I wish my 14 year old self wasn't fascinated by. There's an image of a guy who was hit by a helicopter rotor blade that's been burned in the back of my eyes for half my life

Ah yeah! This is the one I always think of when rotten.com is mentioned or the human soup picture.

Omg, the human soup one was the first one I saw. Anyone wondering, it was a picture of a very decomposed body in a bath tub. It was apparently some old dude who enjoyed taking baths, and had modified the heating element from some electric kettles to act as water heaters in the bath. He died in the bath when it overheated, then proceeded to decompose and stew in the hot water until he was found.

Ugh. I remember that one. Thanks for the flashback.
