Friend has invited me to see an autopsy, should I go?

Question

I have an opportunity to see an autopsy of a recently deceased person. understand it is quite a sight and many people pass out just watching it. It would be interesting but would I be able to handle it?

How about you, would you like to see one?

Answer 1

if i had the oppertunity to go see an autopsy i would. i think it would be a fun experience. even though i might close my eyes half the time.

lol..

Answer 2

Ummm...depends if you're into forensics science &/or criminal justice. Do you want to have a career examining dead people or other possible forensics science fields? Then if you are, why not?! lol

But personally for me, I would never want to see a dead body and someone decexsing it. It wouldn't be something I would enjoy or on my list of things to do before I die.

Answer 3

Me, no...my stomach is so weak I have trouble changing the cat's litter.  I really admire people who are able to do that line of work but its definitely not for me.

Answer 4

I'm squeamish, so I would definitely pass on that one, but if you are curious and think you can handle it, go for it. Personally, I would have nightmares of people cutting me open. Maybe watch Dr. G on the Discovery Channel, she does autopsies.

Answer 5

I'll have to pass but if you want to you should.
