'Body Worlds' a success

Dr's family | 3:42 p.m. Jan. 14, 2009

Our family saw the 'Body Worlds' and we were all quite amazed at the human body's that were there on display, within the museum. Unfortunately, I am sensitive towards the dead and in being so I had strange dreams following the evenings event. I thought the bodies were interesting but still a bit eerie.

I love Body Worlds!!! I want to see it again. I always share with my children, grandchildren, friends, relatives and strangers about it. It is very special.

I hope it stays pernement in Salt Lake City. The people can travel from all over places to see it. Like Disneyland in California and Disney World in Florida, the people travel over there and see Disneyland and Disney World.

The body is a beautiful and amazing thing. To see it exploited like this is just awful and sickens me.

Did you even see the exhibit? It was amazing and I certainly didn't get the impression that anything was being exploited, as you say. These people voluntary donated their bodies so that you and I could have more of an appreciation for the human body. There was nothing vulgar about it.
