I for one welcome out new dog overlords.

[–]NOACeulemans 8 points9 points ago

Hint: it's fake. The Russians did indeed try head transplants, but they never hooked up a robot to the head.

[–]Omnamah 3 points4 points ago

W-wow. That dog's head. I wonder if it still had the same thoughts as when it was alive? IS the same possible for humans? I wonder if I could find any scientists willing to try on me when I die.

There's an effed up video on youtube showing an experiment from the 40s-50s. It shows a decapitated dogs head responding to stimuli. The head is being kept alive by a mechanical "heart." It the stuff nightmares are made of.

[–]SoggyCheez 2 points3 points ago

Experiments like this were also held by German scientists during WWII as an attempt to reanimate dead bodies. They were able to make heads of dogs lick their teeth and snarl when stimulated with electric shocks while a pump circulated blood.

[–]toothphoneegg 1 point2 points ago

The film is called Experiments in the Revival of Organisms (1940) and can be found here at the Perlinger Archives:

That's the video I was referring to. They would also close their eyes in response to a hammer being hit on the table in front of them.

I'm a little worried they're barking up the wrong tree with this experiment.

[–]jimjim91[S] 0 points1 point ago

It must've been ruff when it didn't work

[–]CatalyticDragon 0 points1 point ago

It would be a moment of sheer terrier to see that coming at you though.

[–]DifferentNoodles -2 points-1 points ago

Bark times ahead. People will be howling with fright at such a horrible thing. Why, I'll be doggone if the thought doesn't make me paws in fear.

[–]CatalyticDragon -2 points-1 points ago

The howl thing is just off the leash.

[–]TheGoryElk -2 points-1 points ago

This entire thread is a dog's breakfast >.>

Schnauzer chance to stop it.

We can rebuild him. We have the technology.

Re fucking post.

[–]irvo44 2 points3 points ago

[–]Zenmaines 0 points1 point ago

I'm pretty sure that is a teaser for some movie.

[–]jimjim91[S] 4 points5 points ago

I would watch the shit out of that movie

[–]AllDesperadoStation 0 points1 point ago

Lassie: The Robocop years.

[–]crunchenticker 0 points1 point ago

the last x-files movie. coming from an old school x-phile who used to take notes on episodes to discuss on the interwebz: it was underwhelming to say the least. the fake propaganda was better than the movie.

[–]tnsaidr -1 points0 points ago

I didn't watch the movie, but wow, reading the plot synopsis on wikipedia, I couldn't keep myself interested enough to read the whole plot lol.

[–]orpheus117 -1 points0 points ago
