I just finished a really good book titled “Stiff: The Curious Life of Human Cadavers” not counting the Tucker Max book probably one of the better I have read in recent weeks. The author goes into vivid detail the lasting impact human cadavers have socially, scientifically, and educationally. She describes a multitude of testing and some improvements that have been made in the automotive industry and in other areas of research.
It makes one think, just what percentage of the population of this planet are worth more to the world dead than they were alive? You could, and many do, wander aimlessly through life not contributing a thing to society but in death their body could possibly make a safer airbag or a better bulletproof vest for police officers or a better helmet for our soldiers.
I am starting a petition campaign to have Paris Hilton’s body donated to science god knows she is the poster child for being worth more dead than alive.
