That one medical student who picks up your head and comically operates your jaw .....

I would pay extra to guarantee i was used as a comedy prop.

What about donating your finger bones to make dice for that one company

That's a good way to get kicked out of the wet lab. Most tutors are incredibly serious about treating bodies with respect, you can't take photos, or muck around with them.

Going Hamlet with them would be absolutely not on.

Mum used to tell me stories about how dad and a mate of his would "prank"* a third dude while practicing on bodies by casually having lunch over an open chest cavity, with the full salad on display. Frequently made the third guy lose his.

So far, the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree, so... yeah:))) Most likely=))))
