Family of 'Dr Death' to honour his controversial last wish

The family of Gunther von Hagens, famously known as 'Dr Death', has announced that they will honour his final wish and make his body available for 'plastination'. German anatomist Hagens had developed plastination, in which the fluids and fatty tissue in corpses are replaced by rubbers and polymers. Religious groups had objected to plastination and the display of body's remains.
