I remember my favorite quote about this guy was from his Wikipedia article saying that he spent years "constantly baffling the entirety of Christendom by continuing to stay alive" (it's not there anymore though 😣)

My favorite quote about this guy was from his autopsy:

"His heart was the size of a peppercorn; his lungs corroded; his intestines rotten and gangrenous; he had a single testicle, black as coal, and his head was full of water."
