I first saw this in a news clip on tv, years ago (I don't have a tv now). I thought it was the most incredible thing in the world. I would love to see the exhibition. Has anybody been?

I saw the Exhibition in Brick Lane, London last year. I thought it was amazing. It was hard to imagine that these were real people at one time... but some things reminded me in stark reality... particulary the bloke sliced in half that had a tatoo on his arm. That was to close to the bone!

yeah saw it when it was on brick lane... amazing exhibition, was a bit annoyed you had to pay to donate your body though, if they had offered £50 i think i would have done it. also, in the gift shop they should be selling mini-slices of people as souvenirs. that would be good. apart from that though very good.
also the live autopsy was quite enlightening as well. although i think the bloke has probably a few issues and definitely has terrible dress sense.
