(Michael) Jackson To Have Body Stuffed By Doctor Death
Daily Star (U.K.) ^ | March 16, 2009 | Rick Lyons

MICHAEL Jackson will achieve his dream of immortality by being stuffed with plastic by Dr Death.

The King Of Pop, who calls himself Peter Pan, has had a string of cosmetic surgery ops to try to defy the ageing process.

But he is now preparing to strike the ultimate blow against death and decay by having his whole body “plastinated” by controversial doctor Gunther von Hagens.

Jacko, who is a fan of the German anatomist, was said to be thrilled his Body Worlds exhibition would be on at the O2 Arena during his This Is It concerts, which start in July.

The exhibition showcases Von Hagens’ groundbreaking corpse preservation technique which earned him the nickname Dr Death.

Thousands of people have donated their bodies to be preserved permanently through the process in which fluids are replaced by liquid plastic.

Now Jacko, 50, who shares a love of fedora hats with Von Hagens, is to be the latest to sign up so that his physique will last for ever.

[Snip]

The invention of plastination is an aesthetically sensitive method of preserving meticulously dissected anatomical specimens and even entire bodies as permanent, life-like materials.”

"strike the ultimate blow against death and decay by having his whole body “plastinated” by controversial doctor Gunther von Hagens."

By the looks of it....Wacko has got a head start on being plastinated. Roaches, Cher and Wacko will be the only things left after the rest of us are gone....

Is that picture before, or after, his pet monkey ate his face?

He already looks like death warmed over...

Cremate this freak, posthumously...or not.

And I think this headline is for the ages...along with the Ny Post’s ‘Headless Body Found in Topless Bar.”

Ok, here is my idea. They can plasticize Liz Taylor after she dies, too, and do a diorama of Jackson carrying her around on his shoulders. Kind of like a piggy-back ride of demented death.

There are some crude jokes which could go with such a double entendre of a title. Jackson though already appears as though he was subjected to this embalming process. He was traumatized back in 1994 when his body was examined over the past allegations against him & I would think that the thought of being gawked at [ even though while just a dead corpse ] would also traumatize him as well.

Michael’s more likely to have his body stuffed by Gulbuth the Rampant. That is, if Gulbuth can do it without tearing the skin.

“Billie Jean” is one of my all-time favorites but quite frankly, the world would’ve been better off without the Jacksons.
