These bodies came from those that were "MURDERED." The bodies come mostly from Falun Gong practitioners who follow principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance;" and the only reason for them being imprisoned in China to begin with is for following these principles. I understand the decision is up to the people to see these bodies on display but it is good to know the facts of where these bodies really came from.
The bodies you're talking about are stored and sent to universities for anatomy study only. The ones in the Body Worlds exhibition are from people who signed a release before they died, agreeing to be shown. I'm going to donate my own body to this man some day.
I went there today. In Ankara, Turkey. Was fascinated by what i saw. Truely remarkable although my mom says its gross.. Some people think the same too. But me as a bio student, I had a brilliant experience today and this is possibly the best place if you want to know anything about Human Anatomy other than operating a patient. A must recommendation for anyone. They even had fetus from 6 to 30 weeks. Extraordinary!
They're just bodies. Empty vessels, they serve no purpose anymore. I don't know, you might adhere to ancient Egyptian religion and view dead bodies as sacred, but most of us don't.
What a crazy scientist! No one can mutilate a body like that and not be crazy in the head… it must do something to him, his mental state, I mean, just look at him!
Mutilate? This process is painstaking and precise, it's an act of love for science and education. I think your perceptions of this are far off the mark. Is a surgeon crazy or an EMS professional crazy? They see these parts of the human anatomy every day. I know it's shocking at first but you get used to it. What do you think a steak is or a pork chop? It's all meat in the middle. 😉
Hahah "Democratization of the human body". What a joke! It's more like Capitalization of the dead human body. Even in death profits are still made out of us.
Genesis 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image,in the image of God he created them;male and female he created them.
Romans 1:19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities–his eternal power and divine nature–have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
I do get exposing organs with diverse illnesses and seeing the comparation between sane and not sane..I do get the importance of showing bodies for anatomical studies..but whats the point of putting real dead people in silly poses?
If you've come this far to view the reviews from other people then you obviously are interested or at least curious about this science. 2 out of 20 comments below were decent ( because these 2 people saw this art & science just for what it is, Art & Science). I drove 3-1/2 hrs to go see this exhibit years ago and was mesmerized. I am a Massage Therapist and saw this exhibit as something wonderful to share with the public. Knowledge is priceless. I could only read approx. 20 reviews and was so sick to my stomach to read such awful and immature comments that were made. I found this exhibit FASCINATING and especially how people and animals were put in different positions so people like me who appreciate the human body & how it functions can see it in motion. I could say so much more about it but i'll end here. I can't wait to see it again !
SOW IT IN LONDON IN 2002
I've been there in Amsterdam (15-01-2012) and it was really impressive
if you ever get a chance to go , do it!
im going tommorrow
😀
Im going to get a school trip to bodyworlds
Menyetek min haza
Mostra fantastica, splendida…
there will be no more book to be published because of this, hah! like it
Why is nobody concerned that these people are young and in good health….where do they come from……china prisioners?
Our Body which has nothing to do with bodyworlds has chinese prisoners.
Gunther von Hagen looks like an maniac-killer.
These bodies aren't chineese prisoners, that myth comes from chineese copycats. But i agree that it's creepy…
estos son cuerpos sacados de un banco de cuerpos humanos chss y no da nada de miedo
tu si que das miedoo!

I visited this exhibition 2 days a go in Ankara, Turkey. It was really amazing to see the organs very clear. I even saw a tattoo on a body's wrist.

2:32 wow, I feel bad for her 🙁
How is this messed up?

So amazing.
1:54 'are plastinated bodies being used in other ways besides a sex position?'
yeah…i know it )) He has a strange sense of beauty.
this rather disturbing
i find this very easy to masturbate to
I'm going there for a school field trip I'm scared
What a crazy scientist! No one can mutilate a body like that and not be crazy in the head… it must do something to him, his mental state, I mean, just look at him!
I saw this thing years ago when I was a little kid it fucked with my head and took me a long time to get over
Beautiful.
As an adult I hope you can see the beauty of it now. What strange things we are indeed.

Eh? What about highly educated surgeons? Fuck you moral fag
Hahah "Democratization of the human body". What a joke! It's more like Capitalization of the dead human body. Even in death profits are still made out of us.
Gross…
This is disgusting!! Gunther von Hagen is a glorified Ed Gein!! He should be committed!

Fy. for satan. man hvor er det ulækkert, at se på. hvis da det er rigtige døde mennesker. der er skåret, op.
You know it would be a German to come up with such idea. Too bad Von Hagen wasn't born 30 years earlier. I bet the Nezi would have love him.
creepy as fuck
Ditch the music morons.
I want to hear what is being said, not your creepy LOUD music.
