Where did this idea originally come from, real life or a particular fiction? And if actually tried, was it successfully done?
I was watching an old Roger Moore Saint episode where, to avoid an attempt on his life, he has himself boxed and crated to the warehouse of somebody who seems involved. It occurred to me that this was earlier than the previously earliest relating of the story, which was a song on the second Velvet Underground album, wherein a lovesick goof tries to mail himself to his long-distance girlfriend with catastrophic results.
