(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.”

If he can stay alive for 20-30 years more he just might be able to achieve his dream of immortality.

Wonder what he would look like in say 2100, after nanotech and biotech allow people to look pretty much any way they want? ....Maybe he will be Peter Pan :-)

Did you notice that “Your Shout” is unavailable for this story? Party poopers. I was anxious to read comments and laugh uncontrollably.

He’s obviously already had the procedure done.

It's hard to believe that it was 27 years ago that the dude last looked like a normal human:

Honestly, does it matter who stuffs him with plastic?

Surely a variety of folks have stuffed him with a variety of stuff over the years.

And even then, he'd already had a nose job. I think you have to go back to 1979 to see Jacko au naturel:
