My two cents on bone bike:

I'm sure vultures pick them good, but not flesh/meat-less good. Like dont places that specialize in bones put them in a box of maggots? I remember this being a segment on Dirty Jobs and a bunch of fuzzy pink maggots eating all the meat before they bleach and strength da bones.

It's beetles not maggots. There's a lot of ways to clean a skull. Leaving it out will attract wild beetles, ants and other bugs that will clean it well if not fast.

Various species of Dermestid beetles are the standard, especially for museum prep, osteological study, and taxidermy. Some of them are also especially useful in forensics because they are ubiquitous and have very predictable arrival times on corpses. Time of death and other things related to dead bodies in investigations can be estimated pretty accurately once Dermestids are present on a corpse, based on things like life staged the beetles and amount of tissue consumed.

Ants actually do a pretty good job cleaning carcasses on their own too. I put a dead map turtle on an ant mound a few years ago and got a really nice shell and skull after a couple months in the summer.

I used to work with natural history museum collections and go to see how bones are prepared for storage and collections.

Bigger bones are cleaned by maceration. In the museum they did this in a huge tank with enzymes and detergents, but you can just put bones in a barrel of water and leave it out in the sun and let the bacteria dissolve all soft tissues.

Skeletons of smaller animals are cleaned by dermestid beetles. It's the beetle larvae that does the eating. In nature, dermestids are some of the last insects to arrive at a carcass. The soft tissues are usually eaten by larger animal and fly maggots. Dermestids arrive when the bones are almost cleaned and very dry. In the museum they used a regular househol drying cabinet, like you would use for clothes, to dry the bones before they would let the dermestids have at them.

When you got rid of all the soft tissue by maceration or dermestids, the bones are still full of fat and will go rancid and stink if they aren't degreased. The museum did this in the big steel vat with detergents, but you can also do it with a bucket and dish soap, or ammonia if you are in a hurry.

I remember reading somewhere that someone at a University would prepare human skulls for medical dissection by boiling them in water for a few days.

The problem was that this apparently smelled amazing and they had all sorts of hungry students try to get in the lab asking "what are you cooking? Can I have some?"

I am picturing someone accidentally spilling a bit of their morning coffee while walking up the steps, slipping on it, then falling over, shattering the glass and stabbing themselves with the shards in the process.


I looked at this and realized you can only use every other step because some of them are positioned *behind* the subsequent one.

Maybe it's the quantity or the preparation method but I remember seeing something about a brain study/storage facility and it smelling just awful all the time.

Probably the preservatives.

It's tough to tell from the perspective, but I think they're intended to be slanted horizontally enough to use in that stupid left foot/right foot order.

They're angled. It's one of those trendy staircases where each level has a tread for only one foot, but it's so avant-garde it's hard to tell from the photo

Various kinds of reinforced glass is often used as a floor for things like walkways and balconies, so there's no reason to assume it won't work in stairs. The real issue is the lack of a railing, and the possibility of slippery steps.
