| Procedure | In the Film | Medical Reality | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Heiter cuts flaps of skin from the back and sews them to the face of the next person. | Plausible, but infection would occur within hours without massive antibiotics. | | Ligament Shortening | He breaks knees and reattaches tendons to force a crawling position. | Plausible. Orthopedic surgery can lock joints. | | Anastomosis | Sewing a mouth directly to a rectum. | Fiction. The human immune system would reject the foreign tissue within minutes. Fecal matter entering the blood stream (sepsis) would kill the "middle" person in <24 hours. | | Feeding | The front person eats a protein slurry; the middle and end receive "nutrition" from waste. | Fiction. Humans cannot extract nutrients from feces. The colon only removes water. |
