Percy Foster, a dwarf porn star who was a dead ringer for Gordon Ramsay, was found dead in a badger den in the U.K. Seriously, this is a real story . The star of X-rated movie Hi-Ho Hi-Ho, It’s Up Your A**e We Go (again, seriously) was discovered partially eaten “deep in an underground chamber.” UK Ministry of Agriculture experts running a planned badger-gassing program near Tregaron, Wales, happened upon the 3’6″ actor, reports indicate.

Alas, he won’t get to live out his dream any longer. [Photo: WENN.com]

Phew. Dodged a bullet there, humanity. [ Slate/BrowBeat ]
