I'm planning to defraud a pharmaceutical company by selling them a new wonder drug that can revive patients 3 days after death.

haha is that sarcasm?

If not, then it's perfectly legal, as long as you do it safely.

Book say a 15-30 minute talk at a pharmaceutical lecture of some form there to `advertise` this new drug, vita-iterum ( { latin for `life again` } or whatever you're gonna call it ).

To be safe, make sure the organizer is in on the trick, so you have their support so you don't get any accusations of obviously con-work.


You want to sell it as best you can, prepare a powerpoint of the process, fraud some pictures of it working in hospitals, have some family stories, maybe a actor of someone who has been `reborn` or a family member who has had their son back etc.

Perhaps it would be funny to guide someone else through the proceedure of inducing the drug to the `corpse` then having them suddenly spring upwards moaning & screaming like a zombie haha. - then just have them pause like a statue for a few seconds then you can all laugh

Lol! That would be an awesome performance, especially just randomly sandwiched in the middle of other genuine presentations. I love it!

Just give your assistant 8 cans of 'Special Brew' lager the night before the gig; I can assure you, the next day he will both look and feel like death!

Start with a dead fly (like David Blaine does) then work up to something bigger.

I've thought of that but my freezer's too small.

A few months ago I stayed awake for about four days... you could have drawn penises all over my face and jumped on me and I wouldn't have noticed. I know from experience

But apparently, it shows a lack of respect to do that to dead bodies...

This is quite a hard effect to do.

I would Try Alec's idea as i have done that and it looks and feels really good.

To make the rest of the body look dead a lot of make-up would work?

Nip to the nearest university's anatomy department, steal a cadaver and do a bobo-switch during the performance.

Ta-da!
