Body World's at the Science Museum
Has anyone seent his exhibit at the scienc museum? I saw it last Friday, and I would absolutely reccomend it to anyone. It was fascinating to see how the human body works. It isn't too bad if you're the squeamish type either. But seeing the things like the hip and knee replacements did make me a little light headed. Not so much looking at it, but just thinking about having that kind of thing done to you.
The exhibit gets you thinking about how you treat your body, and how it affects you. They had a couple of smokers lungs which were pretty gross, but it would have been nice to see an ex smoker's lung to see how or if it clears up. They also had a cross section of an obese male. It sounds wiered to talk about it like that (cross section), but that's pretty much what it is. Anyway, it showed how the internal organs were stressed because of it.
Like I said, I would definitely reccomend it to anyone. It gives you a new perspective on your body.
