In summary, the conversation involved two individuals discussing their experiences watching autopsies on TV and in real life. They shared their reactions and described what they saw, including the use of an electric saw and a laser to cut through the body. One of them also shared a personal experience with visiting a cadaver room during a biology course.

I saw a show where the froze a dead criminal, and cut him layer by layer with a laser into slices as thin as paper and mapped his body with an MRI, or something like an MRI. I guess they made man-sandwiches once they were done.

I once took a biology course during a university summer program for high school students. One field trip was to a local medical school, and we spent a few hours in the cadaver room - and we spent a couple of hours as a doctor explained the process in great detail.
I was a profound experience to look inside a human body - a person who had once been alive.
