i had no idea they could successfully transplant limbs, tho success does seem rather uncertain: "In 2001, surgeons in Australia saved the hand of a man left horrifically injured in a train accident by transplanting fingers from his other severed limb. Two years ago, doctors in London amputated the hand of the man, who had undergone the world's first transplant. He had asked for it to be removed, saying he had no feeling and it was like a dead man's hand."
