Walk into a Human Body

Human-shaped Corpus museum, outside Amsterdam, Netherlands, will give visitors an inside-out look at the body.

Visitors will enter the towering 115-foot-high Corpus at the knee and climb to the head, learning about organs and body systems along the way. Each major organ has its own domain; in the Uterus Theatre, viewers get a ringside seat for the moment of conception.

Interactive exhibits throughout the museum allow people to test their own brainpower and vital functions.

Corpus, the gigantic seated human figure that houses a health museum, will open in mid-2007.
