Now this is SUPER bizarre.  A woman who underwent weight loss surgery ended up with a bunch of loose skin.  She had it removed but instead of just disposing of it she did something very 'Buffalo Bill' with it.

According to reports, the woman had 4 pounds of skin removed.  Then she had it turned into human leather.

She wrote her surgeon a letter explaining why she wanted to keep the skin and the hospital allowed her to do it.  She then found a friend that could treat and tan the skin.  Now she has a really cool-looking leather cumberbund.
