Completely random stoned hypothetical. Lets day im old as fuck and I decide I’m ready and done. Could I have the same postmortem autopsy done on me while I’m still alive? Like give me a ton of drugs and let me watch myself get dissected as my final moments. I understand there is a legal and possibly moral concern, but is it really ethically that bad if I also want it? Like I’m not taking myself out at my prime, I’m nearly dead anyways. Lemme see myself cut apart that’d be cool as shit, only if I couldn’t feel any pain though.

    Short answer: No.

    As far as I’m aware, the first step in an autopsy is to drain the body of blood before any incision is made. You’d be dead long before you got to “see your insides”.
