      I think taking the heart out is the part that kills them, unless perhaps you reverse origami it while it’s still attached

          This heart could be easily entangled. So I don’t understand this thread’s OP nor this Meme.

        In case anyone is like me and only knows this from years ago, the creator filmcow is still around and has been making tons of great content all these years (check out vulo lives). I think he’s even crowdfunding a new ending to the llamas with hats series at the moment which I’m pretty psyched for.

          No. This diagram doesn’t show how they got the heart to unravel like that. There’s a layer or wrapping around the heart and internal connective tissues that holds the heart in its traditional state. I’d imagine if the got the muscles of a unrolled heart to contract it would just fold or bind at points. But definitely wouldn’t pump anything.

          It’s only backwards because you’re looking at it from the outside from the front. When it’s in you, the left is on your left.

    Interesting, but this isn’t an entire heart, is it? Only half? Or isn’t a human heart? Human hearts have separate left and right pairs of chambers which pump oxygenated and de-oxygenated blood separately. Or am I mistaken?

      I just assumed that they dissected through the heart to unfold it. In humans the heart is ‘compact’ and there’s no real way to unfold it without cutting through cardiac muscle but, the heart embryologically develops from a tube that folds over itself so you can theoretically ‘unfold’ it.
