anyone watching this on channel 4? if so would you donate your body for it?

[askyourgran]

Only if I get the Gold mask and jewellery. Painfree Botox too.

I'm watching.. So interesting isn't it? I don't know how i'd feel about donating my body to science though.. it's a hard think to think about.

I'm finding it absolutely fascinating. Difficult to say whether I'd do it myself. But I admire him for donating his body to research that is so unusual.

[AlBags]

Yes .. that's me there.

[leanne_1987]

it is brilliant, love programmes like this, don't think could do it myself though

My Grandad donated his body to science and I would do the same. Still had a funeral for him and he has a little plaque (sp) somewhere. Not gona be any use to me or anyone else is it.

[leanne_1987]

when they say donating your body to science, does it mean they can do what they please with it?

[Ankou]

pretty much. cadavers are used for medical training as well. my mate trained to be a dentist and had to do all sorts of drilling, cutting, sewing and stuff inside the gob of a dead'un.

Amazing programme, but I found some parts hard to watch and I got a bit upset when he said he's had a good life, poor beggar only lived to 61, and he would have loved to watch it because he loved documentaries - bless.
