In my day-job I spend time keeping up on the latest health care news. This article was just too bizarre to not post it. A man in India had been living with his stillborn twin brother in his belly for 36 years. In his mother's womb, his body had subsumed his twin's body, and he had been born and lived a mostly normal life (except for looking pregnant) for 36 years. The medical term is "fetus in fetu" and there has only been about 90 recorded cases of its existence. There is a video clip in the article.
What was the movie with Arnold Schwartznegger where he was on a Mars colony and the leader of the "resistance" movement was a guy who lived inside of another guy? Life imitates art!
p.s. I tried inserting the video clip directly into this blog post but was unsuccessful. Any HTML jock out there care to show me how to do that? I was able to get the URL of the clip and followed the Typepad instructions but I still couldn't get it to work properly.
