No. He would have to move around with a wheelchair.

What if it's purpose is only to move absolutely?

Yes, you arm would be like butter (ha ha)\n\n\nSeriously, yes you most certainly could.  In fact, you could do it without any time shft.  There is enough empty space between electrons and nuclei, similar to the way gamma rays and radio waves pass through you body.  Of course, its just theory.

i'm afraid not. the nerve supply are not functioning well, so they cant. they also will have urine and faeces incontinence.

No. It wouldn't be able to get enough energy or move things through itself to different parts fast enough to survive.

all of your spine, muscles, and tendons inside of your neck are disconnected from the rest of your body, but the skin is still holding your head on, so you have not been fully decapitated.\n\nif that makes any sense..

I would think it might be a little tricky, but NEVER underestimate the will and power of a human body and spirit. I have seen seemingly average humans do incredible things that you wouldn't think physically possible for their physiques.\n\nExample: look up the name David Belle on Google.com and watch some of his videos, a magnificent example of what I'm talking about, and an incredible man as well. He is one of the leading examples of a sport called Parkour, which means "freedom of movement." (Mr. Belle is a Frenchman so I translated Parkour for the readers of my answer here) I was awestruck the first time I saw him perform, truly amazing!!

No, because they will bash your head if you get naked. Remember to also wear a hood so your face doesn't show either.

Why not try to run instead of walking?

yes, but teeth are optional.

If you are a person who does not require the same things as all other earthly humans, than maybe, if you do require water, oxygen, ect. then, no.

pretend they are no-body

No, it is anatomically impossible. Even the myth of mother's and teachers having eyes in the back of their head.

Wow, you are two-dimensional.  That must be difficult.  And your eyes are disproportionately large.  I would have to see freakish.  Any then a tiny little neck holding up a large head.  I would think you would be dead by now, or at least paralized.

Body first and last.  I don't have any hair!

CAIRO - An Egyptian baby who underwent a 13-hour operation to remove an extra head will soon be able to breathe on her own, a doctor treating her said on Tuesday.\n\nTen-month-old Manar Maged was suffering from one of the rarest birth defects -- craniopagus parasiticus -- a problem related to that of conjoined twins linked at the skull.\n\nThe head that was removed from Manar in the operation which ended early on Saturday had developed no body, and was capable of smiling and blinking, but not independent life.\nStory continues below ↓ advertisement\n\nNo signs of paralysis\nDoctors have already said that Manar could move all her limbs and showed no signs of paralysis after the operation in a children’s hospital in Benha, near Cairo.\n\n“At the moment only about 15 percent of her breathing is through the ventilator and in about 48 hours we will switch the ventilator off,” Abla el-Alfy, a consultant in paediatric intensive care, told Reuters.\n\nAlfy, part of the team of 13 Egyptian doctors who carried out the operation, said it was too early to say whether Manar could have suffered brain damage.\n\n“In four days or less we will do a ... scan of her brain to see what the situation is,” Alfy said.\n\nCraniopagus parasiticus occurs when an embryo begins to split into identical twins but fails to complete the process. One of the conjoined twins fails to develop fully in the womb.\n\nProfessor Lewis Spitz, a leading expert on conjoined twins at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London said the vital question for Manar was whether brain tissue and blood vessels were shared between the two heads.\n\nHe said it was critical that the blood flow away from the surviving twin was not interfered with during separation.\n\nSpitz did not know how many cases of craniopagus parasiticus have occurred or the number of attempted separations. He said the fact Manar survived is a big achievement in itself.\n\n“It must be quite rare. In about 2 percent of conjoined twins the heads are fused,” he said, adding that an incomplete conjoined twin joined at the head is even rarer.\n\nHe said the incidence of live born conjoined twins is about one in 200,000.\nCopyright 2006 Reuters Limited.
