I just went to see his exhibit at the Ontario Science Centre and it was so fascinating!
When he saw an organ in a block of plastic and posed the question "why not put the plastic IN the organ?" He was told he was crazy and now 28 years after he invented Plastination look at the incredible things he can do.
Here is a clip from Daily Planet of what he does.
