Chuck Lamb, 47 aka The Dead Body Guy probably has the world's strangest hobby: he likes to play dead.

As if that's not enough, he takes it one step further: he takes photos and videos of himself playing dead and posts them on his website.

Lamb went public with his hobby back in 2005 and has been successful ever since. He has appeared in various TV shows and films, these include: STIFFS, Thankskilling, C.S.I and Law & Order.

The earliest origin of “playing dead” can be traced back to Crayon Shin-Chan, a popular 90s Japanese manga by Yoshito Usui.

In the series, Shin-chan (the main character) often plays a prank on his mother by pretending to be dead on the floor as she returns home from running errands.
