figured i’d share and see what the general view was on such an exhibit. When i was in Vegas a couple weeks ago… I went to see the “Bodies Exposistion”
Actual human bodies that have been embalmed, saturated with acetone then diffused with silicon…basically replacing all the water in the human body with rubber.
Probably the best exhibit i’ve ever been to and one of the most educational.
When i told people about this, i had a lot of “eww…gross” responses, but never once thought it was gross…well except once. (when i saw a fat hairy cooch and rememberd it wasn’t a hot 22yr old, but probably an 80yr old diabetic w/ lung cancer and hip replacement)
fricken sweet…who else has seen this?

I saw it at the South Street Seaport (or whatever its called, I always get it wrong) over the summer. Definitely interesting.

I saw it in Toronto last year. I thought it was cool and interesting, but it was more art than science. I thought that some of the poses were a little tasteless, as far a science goes. But I never thought “ew, gross”.

not young at all actually…unless you know what to look for you think they are young because the most obvious signs of age (skin, hair) arent there. also the process tends to firm up the muscle more than you would think. but really alot of the bodies are old.
there was one in vegas, a girl. 5’2" and josh and i thought she was young…like a kid. but she ended up being 70 or something…they pointed out thye bunyons (sp?) on her feet as well as some other age signs…
i loved this exhibit more than i thought, it was very very informative, not just eye candy
