There are also online communities of people who enjoy ... getting eaten alive.

Really? They must only be half hearted about it (so to speak).

I believe that in one infamous case in Germany, one such person arranged to be killed and eaten by a cannibal, and this actually occurred-- so at least a few of these people are truly dedicated.
