BodyWorlds Exhibit

[Plan B]

I went down to the Ontario Science Centre for this exhibit today, and found it fascinating..the exhibit shows real bodies of people who were once living, and in various poses to emphasize different body parts...you'll see everything from skeletons to muscle groups, to actual fetuses of humans who were never born..and in perfect condition thanks to a process called plastination..highly recommended

I saw it a couple of years ago in Montreal. I also found it fascinating.
If a smoker is looking for motivation to quit, just have a look at the variety of lungs they have on display. That should do the trick.

Is it kind of morbid? After all, these are dead human beings on display.

It's extremely scientific, but presented in a visual way so that it's easy to understand. You do not have to be a doctor to appreciate what they are showing.
It's not morbid in the same way it's not sexual. These bodies are intact so they have all their sexual organs, but they are not sexual at all. Well at least not for me.

I walked out of there amazed at the intricacies of the human body. Made me believe there has to be some kind of god that invented us.
