Interested in watching a video of a brain dissection? It's HD!

The blurb for this Youtube video begins, matter of factly:
“On Wednesdays at Hammersmith Hospital in London, a few recently preserved human brains are dissected…”
They do it with breadknives.
Remarkable.
The video was made for the Wellcome Collection, as part of their Brains exhibition which runs until 17 June.
