Ah that was it. Thanks danny. Just think that when that movie was made, the idea of having something travel through your body all the while making recordings was nothing but a dream. Now we have little miniature robots doing exactly was that movie did.
Okay,
While that was a bit odd, I gotta admit that tops the coolness scale! DAMN I LOVE THE INTERNET!

Not all of these come out in the end (pun intended).
I swallowed one at the end of December and it got stuck between two Crohn’s diseased area’s of my small bowel. Had surgery about 8 weeks latter to have the diseased ares and camera removed. Oh, and they are not robots at this point, they tumble around and take whatever they are pointing at at about 2 frames per second for about 8 hrs. Totals over 57,000 pictures at a pretty good resolution.
