saw it in Vegas, really wild, I thought I'd be grossed out but very interesting and worth the high price to see it.

Bodyworlds is a very interesting exhibit. I do recommend seeing it. I saw Bodyworlds 3 in February 2007 (Wrote about it in my journal).

My favorite thing about the exhibit wasn't really a part of the exhibit... it was the old people looking through the exhibit. They made the BEST comments. Such as these:

* We were looking at a glass case containing hip joints and femur bones. One older woman pointed into the glass case, commenting how the femur "looks like a turkey bone".

* The husband was pointing out the artificial joint in the hip too saying "when you break your hip it breaks right there on the stem" (of the femur where it hooks into the hip).

* Some teenage girl made a comment about how they should have trimmed the nails of the bodies. I had to roll my eyes. After you die, your hair and nails don't grow. The skin shrinks and reveals more of what was already there. Which means, they probably DID trim the nails on the bodies, but when the skin was removed, more nail was revealed.

* There was one exhibit where a body had strips of all tissue and flesh alternating with places where it was revealed. An old man asked aloud, "Why did they wrap him in bandages?"... before realizing that was the body's actual skin. Then he commented that "the body's legs are as skinny as [his own]".
