Whenever you see something like that it's someone screwing up with their transactions. The biggest one I can remember is someone putting 90BTC in fees instead of output. In most cases like this they contacted the pool who mined the block and provided evidence of them owning the transaction and got refunded.
that means most of the high transaction fee are because of the mistakes? that would be a failure if the block reward gone to the unknown miners. Shocked
Probably just a mistype? That's the same as 0.32 BTC per kB, 77 times the current recommended fee of 420000 satoshis/kB.

This kind of mistake already happened before, like this one: https://blockchain.info/tx/6fe69404e6c12b25b60fcd56cc6dc9fb169b24608943def6dbe1eb0a9388ed08 with a fee of 15.68 BTC.
yeah, saw someone paid 2.5 btc in a single transaction fee once, forgot what that was.

I was wondering what may have caused this entity to include insane fees with 2 transactions that could have been sent and confirmed with far lower fees.

http://blockr.io/block/info/469057

This transaction has 16.952 BTC in fees -- http://blockr.io/tx/info/cb95ab3aef378c14bc59d0db682d96202b981c1f8fad7d66e23e0be06f2a00c4

This transaction has 10.769 BTC in fees -- http://blockr.io/tx/info/8e12a1aba87e4657f5fabec1121ed57f706805ad6d4ffe88c6fce78596bd9b75

Bixin is the pool that mined this block.
