What
happens to life after death? Well, I don’t know since I’ve never died – I guess
- and none of the dead people came back to tell me about it. Although I don’t
know the errands of the soul after the death I can tell you something about the
destiny of your body if you offered it to a scientist with a thing for the dark
side: it gets seen by millions of people clotheless, skinless and in embarrassing
positions.
Back in
1995 the Polish anatomist Gunther von Hagens decided that it would be fun to strip
bodies of their skin and put them on display for all those who wanted to be
ghastly fascinated. Applying his plastination technique he was able to dehydrate
bodies and fill them with plastic making it possible in that way to preserve
the organs and make the body pose as far goes the imagination.
Although
the exposition is clearly spreading awesomeness around the world it seems that
not all people got on the flow claiming God doesn’t like it.
