Apparently there is going to be a "Worlds first human head transplant" in 8 months

I was just reading through the internet and apparently they are going to literally take someone's head and put it on a new body. Some Italian guy is performing it even users on Imgur have talked about it . I know it's not good to believe everything on the internet because this seems impossible.

    Scary. At first thought it sounds impossible and after thinking more about it, tbh, I still cannot imagine that works and it's too crazy to think more about it.. But I hope they know what they're doing, even if they can't since it's the first human head transplant ever so there's that ...

    According to this article it was due to happen last December but i can't see anything about it online so i guess it didn't happen.

    I just read on that said September 2017

    What I find most interesting is they're going to freeze the head before the surgery, cryo, like for real actual cryo, its amazing.

    I meant December 2017.
    And ozzy thats what the article you linked says

    If it's false; "Meh.."
    If it's true: I'd hate to be the test subject.

  • On People's daily i think there was an article about a Chinese doctor who wanted to attempt this last August but it never happened.

  • Seriously? These news have been around for a year for sure. Honestly, can't tell if it's absolutely idiotic or absolutely genius... I guess time will show.

  • Some theorists would have you believe Dr. Canavero already did that back in the late 70's or early 80's to 2 soldiers.

  • I know the case. Martians did it, not Italians. Sarah Jessica Parker was a patient.

  • My boss at work thinks its happening This Tuesday. What's her source.....Facebook....Seems Legit

  • Let's say on the off chance this is legit, how do they know it will work?

  • Been doing that for awhile now. It's called Photoshop.

  • Is this a jojo reference

  • If it works, I really want a darn Brain Transplant to be developed

  • That is ... not what we meant it was supposed to be happening within 8 months, and now I need to calm my stomach down, oh wait, I don't even need to as since I've seen worse images than this

  • Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. This guy may not make the cut.

    Need heard of it, and I'm betting it's complete bullshit. I mean there is so much bullshit out there, who's to say what is actual fact, and what is bullshit.

  • I assume the dude lives through the procedure of it works...

    Anyway getting back to the head transplant I do not believe this is going to happen or anytime in the near future our technology is just not there yet.
