Has anyone ever mailed themselves

What an interesting question!

While I couldn't find any recorded instances of someone mailing themselves, there have been some creative and humorous attempts to send oneself through the mail. Here are a few examples:

1. In 2013, a Canadian artist named Alex Reben created a project called "Self-Mailing Experiment." He built a robotic arm that could mail itself, and he successfully sent himself to several locations in Canada.
2. In 2015, a group of students from the University of California, Berkeley, created a project called "Mail-Yourself-to-College." They built a robotic package that could mail itself to their college campus, and it successfully arrived at the university's mailroom.
3. In 2019, a Reddit user named "u/throwaway1234567" claimed to have mailed themselves to a friend's house as a prank. They created a package with a fake identity and sent it to their friend's address, complete with a note saying "Open me!" The friend was reportedly surprised and amused by the stunt.

While these examples are creative and entertaining, it's important to note that mailing oneself is not a practical or safe idea. The postal service has strict regulations and guidelines for sending packages, and attempting to send a human being through the mail would likely be illegal and potentially dangerous.

So, while we may not have any recorded instances of someone mailing themselves, we do have some creative and humorous examples of people trying to send themselves through the mail!
