Would the family have preferred that he be blown up in testing of munitions?

Anyone surprised this happened in Oregon? The soil in the Pacific Northwest has low lithium levels. Many of the people, as the nation has seen, are not wrapped too tight.

You mean he didn’t donate his body to the circus? Oh, our mistake.

I don’t think this is so unusual. Decades ago, a friend was invited to watch his friend the MD harvest organs at a Chicago med school.

I’m the recipient of someone’s cornea and will need another very soon. Enormously grateful for donors.

Let’s not forget that in 18th and much of 19th century America, public hangings and sometimes whippings were often family picnic events.
It definition of what is acceptable for entertainment or diversion runs all over the map for human beings.

How did a body donated to "science" end up in a freak show?

Or is this what passes for "science" these days?

Ignorant trash. No respect and zero dignity for humanity.

Many years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, I was a psych major at a ‘rat-runner’ psych department. That is, it wasn’t ‘tell me how you feel’ psych department but rather one that now calls itself ‘brain science’. Anyway one course was physiological psych, and the lab involved dissecting human brains. Each group of three got a human brain to dissect.

If you don’t know, the human brain has both dark matter and white matter which look an awful like light and dark turkey meat. One group (not mine) took some slices and put them between two pieces of bread as a bit of a macabre joke.

At the time I thought, someone ‘donated their body to science’ only to have some college juniors make jokes out of the part of their body that experienced his or her life.

When I first started college the big scandal was some student who, in front of other students, jumped rope with the intestines of a donator.

Never, ever, ever would I donate myself or a loved one!

That’s freaking disturbing.

When I went through nursing school we treated the cadavers with incredible respect. I know it sounds weird but I actually prayed to God each time for such a special, humbling honor.

These people are evil.

The audience paid $500 per ticket to watch the body of David Saunders be dissected, live and in person.

Gee I heard about Dark Web snuff rooms but Mr Sanders was "alive" at the time? "Aaaaaaaahhhh!!!

About as much science as the vaccine mess.

Disgraceful.

What if a gun club bought the body to be used in a shooting tournament? The outrage at those pesky gun lovers would be molecular.
