But this sort of thing happened much more frequently in the middle ages, so don't fret too much about it.

When Beeches Stop for Lunch

"Serves 'im right! Bloody humans... "
The trees of Ireland are evidently quite hungry. One was recently found to have eaten a corpse from the Middle Ages.  As if it wasn't enough to be beaten to death somehow, the poor fellow had to endure several hundred years of slowly passing through the alimentary canal (or whatever they have) of a beech tree. 

Life can truly be unfair sometimes.
