"Metal body parts from dead bodies being recycled as plane engines"


Link to AOL news

"A Dutch company is behind a scheme that is seeing metal body parts from dead bodies come back to life - as plane engines and road signs.

"OrthoMetals came up with the idea of recycling everything from steel hips to plates and screws from legs and skulls and selling them for use in the aviation and car industries.

"The company says that around half of Britain's 260 crematoriums have signed up to the scheme, which is generating 75 tonnes of metal a year."
