    Wow, I have always though about it as an sci-fi thing and never though to actually check if this is possible.

    Just, wow...

    It opens so much new possibilities.
    And this though that for 100% somewhere there, is a human head, decapitated and living. I don't believe they didn't tried this on humans. They just keep it as secret for obvious reasons.

    So those heads in jars on Futurama aren't so science fiction anymore...I imagine it would be like being Stephen Hawking.
