    It's too bad he couldn't have just stolen a jaws of life and had that attached as his arm instead!

    Could you imagine if this had happened in North America though? It would have been his right arm instead of his left. Lucky.

    I bet in 50 years these will be better than real limbs!


    With free health care I'll cut off all my arms and legs and become a god damn near superhero!

    Yes, but imagine the utter horror and futility, brought on by hubris, if everyone does this simultaneously!!! ::cue scary music::

    @jakeyjohn1: In 50 years we'll just grow new limbs. There might be advantages to robotic ones, or cyborg ones, but i think real replacements grown from one's own cells will be the standard.

    Is it just me or does "de-gloving" sound like one of the most god awful experiences imaginable?

    @poorphil: I know this guy, a urologist. He always tells me "gross-out" stories. At lunch.


    So he was telling me once about a guy with a broken penis - rough sex, missed... opportunity, shall we say. To repair this, they have to de-glove the penis, as it was told to me.


    The thought of that gave me one of those "hey, I can walk using my buttocks" moments, you know what I mean?


    Oww. Just, Owww.
