Mummifying Alan

Gmanx

This is really interesting - and freaky as hell. A terminally ill man gets mummified when he dies, to progress our modern knowledge of what the ancient Egyptians did.

Besides the gruesome factor, the guy they're mummifying does a pre-recorded voice-over for his own mummification...

Not available in my area, so I can't watch it, but interesting concept. Though I'm not sure anyone would need a mummified corpse in the future, since we have so much information/research available for future generations. Even if something crazy happened, I think humanity has left a large enough impact on the world now.

Ah yeah, Rob and I caught this when it was on the other day. Really fascinating process and I found that voice over thing pretty freaky too!

Try a 'Modify Headers' plug-in for your browser of choice. Doesn't always fool the vid servers, but worth a try.
