How do deathfat bodies work?

[Drag-on Knight 91873]

The walls shook with each step it took!! Oh, the HORROR!! An abomination... Its physiology remarkably abstract...no real organs or anything... It shouldn't work, but it did!! And the mouths...those gnashing scythes of teeth - I tell you, it existed ONLY to EAT!! To consume! To gnaw! To bite! To DEVOUR!!

-Maximillian Rovias on Deathfats probably.

Forget about walking, I've always wondered how they do extremely basic shit like clipping toe nails and wiping their ass.

How do they bathe, how do they wash the back of their upper thigh, how do they fit in vehicles. Fatty documentaries answer some of these, but the shit still baffles me.

One of the guys in my gaming group is pushing 500. The answer is they literally don't.

Or they get an enabler to do it all for them. How else do you think the bedridden continue to pile on the weight?

How did he even get that fat in the first place?? did he ever stop to question when he was like 300lb "damm maybe I should stop eating like this"? ,and health problems dont start immediately once you hit 900lb, he would have noticed way before hitting that absurd number.

barely

My mother half-jokes that the people who get to 500+ lbs and live for many years at that weight actually have better than average genes based on their ability to survive and not just drop dead from a heart attack/pulmonary embolism/stroke/etc. and would be optimal parents if they hadn't had their brains deep-fried by whatever childhood abuse happened to let them reach that weight.

This is less about the musculature and more about the skin of deathfats. Deathfats have lots and lots of fat rolls so dirt and bacteria get trapped in the rolls and some of them end up growing quite large and complex fungal cultures on their bodies. I knew a doctor who had to treat a deathfat once and he said the folds were so deep that they were melting into each other and growing new skin over the top to create one mega roll rather than lots of parallel ones. He thought that was biologically quite elegant.

That sounds fantastical. Are there actual accounts of that happening? I checked google briefly, but didn't find anything.

They roll and sit on their rolls of fat.

Someone rolls them around like the little dude from Katamari Damacy.

 

[NynchLiggers]

I remember that WEBM of the fatties in TikTok walking with a caption saying when they see Trump supporters or something, the way they walked looked like a blender animation due to the uncanny way their gunts moved.

That's what an ordinary person would do, most deathfats are either extremely stupid or have so undiagnosed mental issues like depression. Just from personal experience, all the heavily overweight people I know are aware of how fat they are, but they either lack the self control to stop it or just don't care and look forward to death.

No idea. I was never interested enough to do any biological research on it, just that my friends anecdote stuck in my mind. But I’d imagine that deathfat folds have a lot of skin breakdown so I can definitely imagine skin breaking down and healing over in a different way. It’s like that deathfat, who may or may not be an urban legend, who was so fat and so immobile that his skin grew into and incorporated his sofa over a number of years and he had to be surgically separated from it.

Some people are so addicted to food that it overrides their self awareness.

 

[Jeff_the_Thriller]

They don't. That's why they need fat scooters and wash themselves with a rag on a stick.

That’s not a urban legend, it has happened multiple times to different people.

 

[KiwiFuzz]

God, I'd imagine that part of the skin "melting" to other skin in a deathfat would involve heat rash bad enough to take off the dermis.

kill them and use their body to make soap
