Dying of a Broken Heart (Literally)

Some of you may remember my post about Body Worlds 3 at the Leonardo here in Salt Lake City, Utah.
One of the things I noticed was a poster that hung on the wall basically describing that it IS possible to die of a broken heart.
In surfing the web I found THIS that has a much better explanation.
How freakin' sad! (And kind of intriguing all at once...)

Body Worlds 3

Wow. Wow. Wow. (Did I say WOW!?!?)

I went to The Leonardo yesterday and saw Body Worlds 3. I am usually one of the most squeemish people you will ever meet when it comes to bodies (of animals, of humans, etc) but I woke up yesterday morning and decided I needed to go. It is a rare opportunity to be able to see it.... and while it was here I thought I would seize the day.
There was a plastinated camel, even an exhibit on babies...
and the part that I found interesting is a poster they had hanging explaining that it IS possible to die of a broken heart. How very sad.

The only way I made it through was telling myself that they were all plastic life-like sculptures. That seemed to work pretty well.

Anyone else in SLC get to go see this or have a desire? I would love to hear what you thought of it...
