VisibleLink #5: He's Got a Body Like You've Never Seen Before!

The Visible Human Project

The human body is a messy thing and, quite frankly, most of us probably aren't interested in seeing (or smelling) the inside bits. Unless, of course, the body is frozen solid and cut into tiny, tiny slices. Fortunately for those of us fascinated by what the body looks like but who don't want all the gore, that's exactly what the National Institutes of Health has done--you can view a male human body from head to toe at one millimeter intervals.
