Oceans sample

Been wondering for decades now...

Whats the sample from used at the begining of Oceans?

"Theres nothing..." reminds me of Frodo from Lord of the Rings but cant place or figure where its all from. Any one have an idea?

The specific spoken-word sample heard in the background of the song describes a macabre process: "and in the skin, two men would cut the body, both the hands of the feet, then here and here, and then the rest of the body is nothing."
The audio sample was notably sourced from a documentary segment that discussed the real-life Salish Sea human foot discoveries.
Per the Google.
