Body Worlds

Today, I went downtown to see the Body Worlds exhibit at the Maryland Science Center in the Inner Harbor. At first our plans almost got ruined because of my cousin being scared, but he just went around the harbor with my uncle for a little while we were checking out the exhibit. It was absolutely incredible. It was so creepy, yet so amazing. There were tons of preserved organs of the human body with descriptions, and actual whole bodies where you could see bones, muscles, and other parts. I learned so much, including things I didn't even want to know. I thought it was really cool how after them showing the exhibit of a smoker's lung compared to a non-smoker's lung, there was a box that you could drop your cigarette box in to start quitting. I recommend anyone over the age of 2 (there were some cryers in there) to check out that exhibit. Afterwards, after getting some pizza on Light Street, we saw this fire enthusiast who lit himself on fire, jumped a flaming jump rope while balancing on a bouncy ball, and escaping 2 straitjackets in less than 2 minutes while balancing on the ball again. I'm still trying to figure out if he was cooler than the Body Worlds exhibit or not! This was only the beginning of my busy weekend.
