There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

Lastly, would the end product be considered Human Oil?

I think the Byford Dolphin incident kind of fits that criteria? The people involved did die due to pressure

I don't know about industrial accidents with a cold press, but crushing(juicing) people to death has been a thing for millenias.

In fact, while I don't have any evidence for this, I'd bet good money that cold pressing has been far more common that hot pressing. Cooking to death has probably happened more, but pressing to death without heat has to be second or third in the list of food-preparation-related ways to kill people. "Chopping-up" has to be first, though.

  1. Chopping up
  2. Cooking (baking/boiling, etc)
  3. Cold pressing

and then somewhere way down would be hot-pressing.
