What's the source for that? I've seen the Russian video of decapitated dogs allegedly kept alive in other experiments and was sorta wondering where they were going with that.. propaganda or not. Now I know?

Yeah I saw that same video. Pretty gnarly. I highly doubt that robot stuff is real (at least with the addition of the animal head). The original testing was mostly done to see about creating artificial organs for humans (hearts, etc). They were successful at keeping the dogs heads alive. Really creepy seeing its head react like a normal dog would when they pet it, touched its noes, etc.

VBS did a documentary about Robert J. White, a neurosurgeon who experimented with head transplants... here's a link on the soviet experiments (probably belongs in the youtube thread)
