This is interesting. How do they join two spinal cords?
good question. we can't repair spinal cord damage yet but in two years they claim to fully transplant a head and reconnect all those nerves? i think not. also.. where do you get a donor body.?
I think it'll be a lot longer than two years before this happens if ever. I saw that they tried this experiment years ago on a monkey but it only survived a few hours. There's a documentary on vice. Could be bullshit though but it seemed real. I'm not sure if I'd want somebody elses body if I was crippled. Some things just arent meant to be fixed once broken.
There are far more sophisticated and frankly ethical ways of doing it to begin with like growing skin cells or cybernetics which are actually being proven to work than this crazy necromancy so it seems like this is just tryig to re-invent the wheel in a really fucked up way.
