Stevie Starr, the human regurgitater, amazed students as he swallowed several objects, including live goldfish at the student centre Nov. 3.

“He’s the only guy in the entire world that can do what he does,” said the spokesman who introduced Starr, who has performed all over the world. “I warn you, do not go home and tell your friends what you’ve seen, because they’ll say there’s no way man, you’re smashed outta your f****** pants!”

Students who attended the performance enjoyed Starr’s gargling, but some were disgusted by his actions.

“Okay, we’re going to suck the light bulb into the belly, bring him back, then swallow money,” Starr said. “If you listen carefully, you will hear coin by coin, click, click, click, when they drop in my belly,” he said.

Starr drank a bottle of liquid soap, smoked a cigarette and blew out bubbles of smoke that oozed out as they burst into the air.

The crowd screamed and laughed at the jokes he made, especially when he spoke to one student.

“She’s looking disgusted. I bet you swallowed worse than that!” he said.

The crowd screamed for a long six seconds but Shannon Amey, a second-year landscape technician student, said she was not embarrassed.

“I thought it was funny and pretty humorous,” she said.

Amey said she enjoyed the show and it was great for Humber to hold it. “I thought it was unreal.”

The most distinctive part of the performance was when Starr swallowed two live goldfish

in a martini glass and later spit them making a vomiting sound, while smacking his chest.

“Oh young lady, what a lovely cocktail,” he said. “Watch his little tail go flicky-flicky.”

Starr then swallowed another fish, a film tube with the lid separately, and managed to put them together, spitting out the tube enclosed with the goldfish.

He swallowed six female students’ rings and said the last ring he spat out would be the student who had to swallow a fish out of his mouth.

“The next ring is coming up, who ever this belongs to, take it and go. If it’s not your ring, you will stay here with me young lady, you will be hypnotized,” he said.  “I will come over here, scoop up Moby Dick and Free Willy, put them into this glass and I will hand the young lady her dinner.”

The anxious, disgusted student, then attempted to run out of the student centre but he managed to bring her back as he said he was joking.

Camille Harris, a second year general arts and science student who attended the show said she was disgusted, but overall she thought it was cool.

Harris’ friend was one of the students who was told she would have to swallow a fish.

“I wanted her to swallow the fish actually,” said Harris.
