He had eaten nearly 9 tons of metal by 1997

"He is said to have provided the only example in history of a coffin (handles and all) ending up inside a man," read another part.

He first became aware of his ability when a glass from which he was drinking, broke and he began chewing the fragments.

By October 1997, he had eaten nearly 9 tons of metal. He said that bananas and hard-boiled eggs made him sick.

Mr Lotito died of natural causes on June 25, 2007.
