LEG-endary! ;)

[Tarbicus]

I actually feel quite sorry for the guy:

Mr Wood's leg was amputated above the knee after a plane crash in 2004.
He asked to keep the leg so he could be buried as a whole man when he died, and stored it at the facility in Maiden after losing his home.
But when Mr Wood failed to pay the necessary rental fees, the storage company auctioned the smoker and all its contents.

I can't understand why the new owner would want a human leg in the first place? At least the original original owner had a reason. :?

But after making money by charging adults $3 (£1.47) and children $1 (49p) to look inside the empty smoker, Mr Whisnant asked for it back.

Ah, that's why. $$$$$

Surely it must be illegal to purchase a living person's body part unless freely donated (life saving kidney transplant, etc)?

He says he has a receipt showing he bought both the smoker and its contents at the auction.
"Everybody knows it's mine, period," he said. "And if anyone tries to take it, I want everything they got."

What? He wants the other leg now?!! Double his takings??
