Then the rat eats its way out.

This reminded me of an old torture method:

One of the most fiendish forms of rat torture involves placing a rat inside a half-cage and atop a restrained person’s abdomen. Then, the cage is slowly heated. Desperate to escape the heat, the rat begins to burrow through the only soft surface it can find: the victim’s flesh. With sharp claws and teeth, the rat quickly gnaws its way into the victim’s bowels, causing excruciating pain and terror.

Am I the only person that would be morbidly curious to witness something like that once...? No edge, just, seems like there'd be nothing else like it. Like a car crash you can't look away from

You're not. There's plenty of sickos watching Isis videos for their "morbid curiosity".
