The craziest last meal requests from prisoners on death row

7. Bottle of Carmel (Adolf Eichmann)

Eichman was a senior officer of the Nazis and was eventually tried, found guilty and executed in 1962. Obviously the worst of the worst, but I can appreciate his last request, to a degree. His last meal request was a bottle of Carmel and an Israeli red wine. Who wouldn’t want alcohol before your execution? If there has ever been a stressful day it’s got to be “dead man walking day” and that drink has to taste pretty good. Anyway, what’s perplexing to me was that he only drank half the bottle. Why not polish it off and why not ask for two bottles? “Sorry guys, I need to be alert for my execution.” I guess I’ll never understand Nazi masterminds.
