How wide are these things. I was just thinking a large individual might cause the juices to runneth over!

Surprisingly enough they are only just wider than the average human. Think the size of a twin sized bed, but a bit longer for plumbing and sinks.
Most have holes like this one, or they have gutters in the sides of the table, with smoothe steel under the body.

Thanks for the visual Lyric. I think I like the look of the older tables better. The older tables look like they were more purposeful? This just looks like an air hockey table with lower sides and larger holes. I'm sure functionally they are far superior.

My cousin's boyfriend sleeps on one of these, along with a vampiric looking coffin in the living room.

In reference to the Hocky table idea....do you reckon theres a 'blow' function on the table....so they just might be able to 'glide' the body on and off the table with great ease? of possibly to create a very colourful fountain...or just for...playing air hockey on when its not in use!

But, where is the tray for gathering the body fluids?

They're collected in a sluice under the table which leads into a drain pipe inside the center column.
