Short Suck #9 - The US Human Body Trade
What happens to your body when it is donated to science? Does it actually end up in front of some doctor or medical student? Not necessarily. Sometimes it ends up being sold by nefarious body brokers to be used for explosive detonation testing or to add to the collection of some weirdo who just likes dead bodies.

What happens to corpses in the US is not nearly as regulated as you probably think.
