Italian Dr. Enlisting Help For Head Transplant

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

Italian Dr. Enlisting Help For Head Transplant

Post by wackyjacky »

He just spoke to a group of skeptical surgeons in the States yesterday. He said he can have the new head on in an hour and has a volunteer. It seems odd to me that they can transplant a head, yet can't fix many spinal column injuries. LINK: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/scien ... 98982.html

Sounds like assistant assisted suicide.

Just what those dumb people need on the other thread.
I can see it now: mass head transplants to improve the nation's IQ average. %)

The man who is preparing to have the world’s first head transplant has claimed the prospect does not worry him, and that “we are making science.”
...
Italian neurosurgeon Sergio Canavero wants to transplant Russian Spiridonov’s head onto a different body by 2017 and said he believes his patient will have a 90 per cent chance of survival.

Wouldn't it just be easier to do a brain transplant ?
What if you got a bald head, bad teeth or big ears? :o (Or you looked like Tony A !)
Could you ask for a refund ?

I hear Tony Abbott had an arsehole transplant, but the arsehole rejected him.
