Okay, your body got screw in a nasty accident, yet your brain is just fine. Now, you'll be looking life as tetraplegia, ie. stuck in a wheelchair... ''and that's if you survive''. Wait... a minute, there's a way to fix that, just get a new body. No need to worry, the doctors have figured out how to the spinal cord, so you can walk and live on again. Neat... right?
 
Okay, so in real-life, the idea of a head transplant is a far way off, at least in humans. Yet, that hasn't stopped those from trying, and works have been showing the idea of operation, with mixed results. A brain transplant could call this, after all, you are transferring a brain from one body to another, similar to a head transplant. This is often a classic in [[Mad Scientist]] works, though it has gotten positive feedback in recent years. Of course, even if a transplant is possible, there're a lot of problems due to ethics as one body can save the lives of up to 8 people.
