    If this is real, it is FUCKED. UP! They need extensive therapy. I don't think I've ever been so grossed out.

    I actually thought it was really cool at the time, but later was revealed to be a hoax... we're not that far in the bodmod industry, yet.

    Dude... that's just gross.. I can't understand how someone could just miss an entire limb voluntarily! But then again.. some people think ear stretching is mental and I have e 6 mm tunnel. Maybe they think of that as normal although it is very hard for me to understand..

    Could easily be a joke though, I'm into photoshop myself it's relatively easy to attach extra limbs.

    Who says its impossible? And even then, no matter their credencials.. humanities greatest are constantly being proven wrong by future developments. Its not necessarily impossible.. we just havent figured it out yet ;)

    Unless we can find a way to connect an arm from another body in a way that will allow the blood to circulate through, as well as regenerate living tissue, there isnt any way that we'll ever be able to do that. It would rot.

    Aside from the fact that it was fake to begin with.

    I do love BMEZINE <33

    It ís possible I think, I mean if this bogus were real it could have eben possible because they are brothers so the blood type is probably the same and so the new limb is compatible. It's just completely useless, I mean, for an arm you'll need a shoulder to be able to move it, right? and loads of muscles. So in this sort of situation you'd just have a dead arm hanging from you. A waist of blood and surgery really.. it 'd just become all thin because it isnt used.

    It is definately possible doctors perform operations where they reattach limbs to people, and reconnect blood supplies and nerve endings. There will be a slight possibilty of rejects if the limb was from someone else, but they use anti-reject drugs.

    Its a little distrubing to think people would want to do this for arts sake but its there bodies.

    I mean we've only got to look at recent news such as the face transplant to see that these things are possible.

    Here are some links for you:

    Thats all possible, but an arm under your other arm is not. at least, you wont be able to use it as I said before, it ll require an extra shoulder and muscles. A shoulder on your back wont work I think..
