Omg, I had a great time going there, went and it was just amazing. The work and dedication that went into making those displays deserves alot of recognition.

I was most facinated by the fetus showcase though, it was amazing to see the transformation from a little spec to a baby. Really put perspective on life and birth.

I also liked the Smokers section, it's important to see that kind of stuff.

Anyways, it really makes you think about how you use your body and how you should take care of it and make sure you are trying to prevent disease and conditions frmo happening

cock and balls everywhere you look.

w......t......f.

[thechix0r]

^^ yeah it was definitely a sausage fest in there

[Revolver]

ok seriously,it was a fantastic exibit. the eyes on some of the bodys were sooooo life like it was a little unsettling.

i liked the really thing lateral 'cuts' of the bodies. as well as the nervous system. that was pretty amazing.

i think the most compelling were the fetuses. i was espescially taken by how much developed in the 8th week...

49 days.

[thechix0r]

^^^ Yeah that was definitely some neat stuff there... it was just a mini little person... and the development was so quick

This thread just reminded me...didn't you think the "obese person" wasn't extremely fat for its purpose? If you're going to showcase an obese person, showcase a huuuuuuuuuuuuuge person!

Im still needing to go sometime. Anyone wanna go?

i heard that a few of them are unidentified executed chinese prisoners..
and im not sure i feel that great about that.

does it happen to say anything about who these people were?

[Pussy*Kat]

^ I think the dates on the signs are the years they died or were donated for science purposes but other then that, no. there were no names.

I can't see that as being true :-\

All the specimens which you could see their facial structures looked to have more caucasian features than asian ones

one of the baby fetus's winked at me, i felt uneasy afterwards

I think mostly because most of these specimens came from Europe, where the body worlds people are based, so that makes sense?

Yeah I know, that as in regard to the post about them being chinese prison victims

[prozac]

They are not freaking execution victims. Every person there donated their body, and signed a form stating that they didn't mind it going on display.

Some of the fetus section reminded me of sea monkeys.

its also lame and immature.. OH MY GOD, I JUST GRADUATED GRADE 8!

[elliot]

i cant remember where i first heard it, but searching for a few minutes revealed that im not the only one with such concerns. there are a lot of questions about the origin of some of the bodies.. some from russia with head injuries were voluntarily burned by that guy.

"The completely sick ghoulish exhibit of over 200 dead people in strange positions..."

from http://melbourne.indymedia.org/news/2006/06/114531.php

jeez louise...extremist melodramatic inflammatory statements from someone who is obviously missing the point. Totally unprofessional journalist, crappy writing, questionable information.

"However he doesnt show chinese bodies in Body worlds shows, he just sells them to any buyer that wants to join his industry, and the more the merrier which is making him a fortune."

How is that a valid source? My goodness, give your head a shake.
