Digestion

The theme of this dissection was digestion. This demonstration uncovered the organs that carry food through the body, from the mouth to the anus, taking in various different portions of the digestive tract (also know as the gut or intestine). It also revealed the organs that support the gut in digesting food, like the liver and pancreas, together with those that help remove waste products from the body fluids, like the kidneys.

Reproduction
Season 1Episode 460 min

Reproduction

The theme of this dissection was reproduction. Dr von Hagens revealed the organs that carry a sperm from its origin in the testis, through many metres of convoluted tubing and into the female genital tract. The dissection, especially of the male genital tract, is challenging because many of the tubes are small and hidden within the bony walls of the pelvis. The dissection involved cutting through the bones of the pelvis in just the right place to keep the relevant organs in tact.

The Floor

The Floor is a physical quiz show that sees 81 contestants face off in quiz duels on a giant LED floor divided into a 9×9 grid of squares, each representing its own field of knowledge.

The first challenger, selected at random, must choose one of his or her neighboring opponents to go head-to-head in an epic quiz duel in the opponent's category. The winner takes over the loser's square, gaining valuable ground as they expand their territory, while the loser exits the game. The winner must then choose – do they continue on and attempt to secure another square? Or do they let The Floor choose a new challenger? The last contestant standing who gains full control over The Floor takes home a life-changing $250,000 cash prize.
