Arkansas airport workers discovered a shipment of 40 to 60 human heads at a cargo facility last week, after noticing that the package was "not labelled properly".

Wow if they had labelled and packed it properly we would never have heard of this. :D

A spokesman for the medical company said they had ordered four heads and 40 head portions with an ear attached.

Shudders Burke and Hare are obviously still alive and well.

At least it wasn't arms. I can imagine the labelling for that causing some commotion.

Medtronic, the world's largest independent medical device company, had used an Arkansas-based company to supply and ship the heads.


Time to get a new supplier :shock:

Jut think you could get rid of body parts quite easily that way, as long as the recipient does not check the labels too much. "We have another consignment of body parts assorted. No return address just from a Dr Hannibal Lector."
