Title: Gunther von Hagens “Jesus”

There is an interesting video about this here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryaXbs78Xk4)

GvH is a life long atheist but the tenderness with which he treats his subject matter is insightful to the character of art and the artistic process.

What the hell kind of bullshit is this? It says the uploader has not made this video available in my country. Why is he or she not allowing us Americans to watch it? Not all of us are easily offended...

It's a Channel 4 (UK) programme so it may be copyrighted UK only. That sometimes happens the other way around for US productions.

Ahh, that would make since I suppose. I will see if I can find it on channel 4's website.

Edit: Is it a paid channel in UK, because it's blocked from their website as well? Oh well.

No it's not a paid for channel but it's output is sold worldwide so there are probably copyright restrictions outside the UK.

I will keep an eye out for it from a U.S. broadcaster. I came across a few news articles with my google search though.
