What are these body parts doing on Tiktok?
The American educational institute “Institute of Human Anatomy” in Utah uses real human cadavers to bring people closer to the human body on Tiktok.
In 2019, Jeremy Jones, CEO of the company, starts posting human body footage on Tiktok with his colleagues.
In their videos, they show specific organs, bones and physiological features of the human body that are essential to life.
They also inform their followers about certain diseases and special phenomena such as strokes and heartburn.
With their videos, Jones and his colleagues want to give people a better understanding of the human body and its functions.
Jones says the response to her recordings has been overwhelming.
Some followers ask countless questions, others expect explanations, many thank Jones and his colleagues for the instructive videos and wish for more informative content.
People’s interest can be clearly seen in the number of followers: the institute’s channel now has an unbelievable nine million followers.
The institute obtains the cadavers from third-party providers who provide donated human body parts.
The Institute is extremely grateful to the donors. This medical and anatomical training is only possible because of you and your donations.
