That's right, folks. Atlanta boasts the incredible Bodies: The Exhibition, a place where squeamishness goes to die (hopefully not literally, that would be a health code violation).

A detailed look at our muscles, organs, and even entire skeletal systems – all posed in ways that highlight the amazing things our bodies can do.
