While this incident definitely isn’t one of the more sanitary moments in beverage history, it's arguably not the grossest example of drinking caught on camera.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}In September, Nick Griffiths, an explorer from the U.K., took a shot of whiskey with his own amputated, mummified toe in it. Griffiths, who lost three toes to frostbite two winters ago, had donated his amputated big toe to the Downtown Hotel in Dawson City, Yukon Territory — home of the creepy "Sourtoe Cocktail," which consists of a shot of whiskey with a mummified human toe in it.
The hotel has long been collecting donations of mummified toes for the cocktail, which has become infamous among adventurous foodies. Griffiths is just one of many patrons to be included among current members of the “Sourtoe Cocktail Club," although he is one of only several who have also contributed their toes.

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Patrons of the Downtown Hotel aren’t supposed to drink the toe itself, but instead "kiss it" by taking the shot and letting the toe touch their lips. However, the bar apparently has a problem with toes disappearing. So, when Griffiths’ toe was donated, it was a big deal, especially when he agreed to take a shot garnished with his own toe.
