This scientist is about to perform the world's first head transplant. Is it real or is it science fiction?
Instead of using graveyard body parts, he is planning to swap the head of an unnamed Chinese National with the body of a brain dead organ donor.
Just like in Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, he claims that gave him inspiration to add electricity to the fusion "glue" that will reconnect the spinal tissue.
He has already reconnected a "second head" to animals in his testing.
Yes, this is real! Link to full story at business insider:
