Would You Like To Be A Mummy?

I found this on Egyptology News (do NOT ask me what I was doing on that blog).


Have you ever considered leaving behind a long lasting legacy by donating your body to science?

If so, we are seeking someone who would like to be the subject of a scientific documentary that explores mummification: the Ancient Egyptian process that is used to preserve the body.

We are a London based television company producing a documentary on modern mummification for the purposes of scientific research. The documentary will be filmed in the US and Egypt and will focus on an individual who has chosen to have their body embalmed and mummified, or preserved long term, after death.

This is an opportunity to be part of major groundbreaking medical (and ecological) research. And the results of this research will be published in an internationally pre-eminent science magazine, and the story both personal and scientific will be told through the documentary.

LOL.
