Cannibals capture three men. The men are told that they will be skinned and eaten and then their skin will be used to make canoes. Then they are each given a final request. The first man asks to be killed as quickly and painlessly as possible. His request is granted, and they poison him. The second man asks for paper and a pen so that he can write a farewell letter to his family. This request is granted, and after he writes his letter, they kill him, saving his skin for their canoes. Now it is the third man's turn. He asks for a fork. The cannibals are confused, but it's his final request, so they give him a fork. As soon as they do, he begins stabbing himself all over and shouts, "The hell with your canoes!"

They'd just ground his dead body up into a mashed heap and use it as inner stuffing for their canoe.

He was given a final request, why didn't he just asked to be freed?

My dear fellow, how splendidly clever! Clearly you're experienced in these matters. I wonder what Aunt Agatha would have to say to all this.

I first saw that as "Captured by Cannabis". Which reminds me...

Did you hear about the cannibal that passed his friend in the jungle?
