Wouldn't it be a body transplant? From first person perspective you would remain with your head and experience a new body (i assume ... but i mean it would be crazy to all of a sudden see yourself with a new face).


put my name down for one of them.

I could do with a new head.

I fancy myself as a bit of a Worzel Gummidge type.

Maybe Aunt Sally will marry me if i've got a few heads


I see an emerging market where billionaires will go to developing countries, and do a head-body switch...every few years...
