I know that the heart was flown in. And I actually, you know, my wife did it. How crazy is that? It's something else. They took a heart out of someone's body and they put it on ice and threw it to her. And we actually, she has video of the ice chest, you know, me going into the room and then the ice chest come following right afterwards. God, that's so crazy. It is crazy. I mean, it's when I was a kid, it would be like Dr. Frankenstein. Yeah. You know, they didn't start doing it till 68. And I was born in 59. So, you know. Wow, they did heart transplants in 68? In 68, yeah. That was the first one, yeah, 1960. They've been doing it a long time. But when I was a kid, it would have been like Dr. Frankenstein. You're telling me something like that was possible. I would say, oh, hell no. You're crazy. Just making it up as science fiction. But it most certainly is possible. They think they're going to be able to grow your own heart. Yeah. They're working on that right now. Growing your own heart with stem cells. Yeah. And you know, it's going to happen. Which is just crazy. Yeah. It is going to happen. I have no doubt. Yeah, they've already grew a woman's bladder. The woman had bladder cancer. And they grew her a new bladder. Wow. Yeah, and replaced her bladder. Yeah. So, the heart's coming. Yeah. It's coming, man. Yeah, they're already working on, I think, their 3D. See if you can find it, Jamie. 3D printing a human heart. And they think that they're going to be able to get to a point where they have a working model of a human heart. Like, wow. And put your heart in your body, a freshy. Wow. Brand new one, which is just so crazy that you have. That is crazy. And how about for people who are amputees and things along those lines, so be able to replace limbs with your own limb. Actually, grow you a limb. Yeah. Here it is. The first 3D printed heart made up of living human cells. You know. Yeah. Yeah, man. Thank God there's people smarter than us. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That is a heart made by a Tel Aviv university. Heart the size of a rabbit marks the first time an entire heart has been 3D printed. So that's a tiny one right now. But complete with living cells, blood vessels, ventricles, and chambers intact. Incredible. Oh, my God. That is incredible. Mini heart can contract, but it can't yet pump out blood. So they're working on all those different variables, I guess. But man, isn't that incredible? Look at that. Doing it with a 3D printing machine. Like, 3D printing machines freak me the fuck out. That's the future. They're going to be able to make things. Yeah. Look at that. Look how that works. Folks who haven't seen this, this is What the Future. It's on cnet.com. You can Google it and just watch the video of them actually creating this. It is unbelievably fascinating.
