I recall hearing that a human corpse was once used as a prop on a film set for some time before people discovered it was genuine. If this is true, what was the film and was the body's identity found?

An interesting answer, Mary, but in the instance I vaguely remember, the cast and crew didn't realise it was a corpse. Oct 05 03, 2:04 PM

Not sure that this quite fits the bill, but it's "QI" anyway: In the film "Three Kings", starring George Clooney, a real cadaver was used in order to show in graphic detail how a bullet penetrates a body. http://movies.go.com/news/1999/9/threekings092799.html Oct 05 03, 4:18 PM

Maybe this story involving the TV show "The Six Million Dollar Man" was what I had in mind here: http://www.snopes.com/horrors/gruesome/mccurdy.asp Mar 16 09, 7:19 PM

I have heard that a serial killer was once caught because he used a human thigh bone to prop his gate open. Is this true and if so, who was it? From what film is this dialogue, "Now let us dispel some rumors so they just don't fester into fact. Yes, I too attended Helton and survived. And no, at that time I was not the mental giant you see before you. I was the intellectual equivalent of a 98-pound weakling?" I vaguely recall hearing that CD's and audio-cassettes are not as permanent media for storing music as was once thought. Is this true and if so, what process causes this, how many years do they take to become unplayable and can I slow this process down? Please can some kind soul help me to remember the name of a film - It was a British film, a comedy, set in Wales. Brenda Fricker and Jane Horrocks were in it, and it was about two sisters who accidentally killed their mother, and hid her body.I cannot remember for the life of me the title of this film - Can anybody help?
