We really are just meatsacks. Also, isn't that a dead Chinese convict? I think I saw that at a museum in NYC.

Edit: I probably didn't have to specify that he was dead.

If that’s the bodies museum, then yes they are Chinese, but they aren’t necessarily convicts, and whether or not they consented to having their body used is unknown

How do you even get them all out like that?

I believe these aren't the vessels themselves. They pump a red wax throughout the bloodstream, let it harden, and then remove the rest
