The answer should be simple: yes, but  only for a little while. Scientists say that the brain continues to  function for about two minutes after the heart stops. But can a lopped  off head continue to survive after being completely severed from the  body?Many would say no. However, it was widely reported in the media, that a  Soviet scientist in the late 1920s by the name of Sergei Brukhonenko  actually managed to keep the severed head of a dog alive. The dog’s head  was reportedly connected to a primitive heart-lung machine called an  “autojector” (or that’s what the inventor dubbed it). The device  supposedly gives the head everything it needs to maintain life. Below is  an illustrative video of how it’s meant to work (the actual video  follows).[YOUTUBE]rSrIkUXwsNk[/YOUTUBE]Brukhonenko presented a similar  experiment in 1928 at an international scientific conference, at the  Third Congress of Psysiologists of the USSR. However, his science has  often been questioned. As proof of his dog experiment and to show that  the head wasn’t just part of the corpse, a video follows where  Brukhonenko does a series of tests. He shines a light in dog’s eyes  making it blink. He hits the table with a hammer and the dog’s head  reacts. And last but not least, to make things even more gross, he feeds  the dog head a small piece of cheese, which lands on the table at the  other end of the esophageal tube. Enjoy! [YOUTUBE]cEcUTMpyRLY&NR=1[/YOUTUBE]                   From that day forward controversy and speculation traveled the world  over. Scientists divided in two camps: those who accepted the medical  possibility and those who were skeptical. The latter suggest that the  film may be just pure Soviet propaganda or simply medically impossible.  What is interesting however, is that many physicians actually gave  credit to Brukhonenko’s experiment, legitimizing the whole affair. So  what do you think? Will we be able to replicate those live-heads off  Futurama?</blockquote>
