Swedish med students get teacher's body at first autopsy

[FarCenter]

AFP - It was their first ever autopsy, but students at one of Sweden's top medical schools were faced with a familiar sight in the classroom: the body on the table belonged to their late teacher.

"The first autopsy is really, really emotional, and we autopsied someone we knew!," one of the shocked students told news agency TT Friday.

1. Dedicated professor - keeps teaching even in death

2. I'll bet he did this to get revenge on the class cut ups.

I dunno, would that be a valid pun in Swedish?

3. I'm starting to think the Swedes

may be just a warped as the Japanese! :rofl:

4. I thought the same thing!

5. The Swedes also use the heat from crematoriums to heat local homes

No biggie there

6. Actually, it was the teacher's secret identical twin.

Next week, they'll see their teacher in class again -- just in time to prep them for their psych rotation. :evilgrin:
