Smithsonian's Weirdest (2007x2)

Air date: Nov 02, 2007

Children love the gross and the icky – and who knew that the Smithsonian was a repository for so much that is not only gross and icky, but also weird? In this show, we take a fun and informative look at ten wondrous and unusual artefacts drawn from the Smithsonian’s collections. Includes: Soap Man (a man from Philadelphia mummified in soap), the world’s longest tapeworm (18ft), a giant squid and a million year old sample of Giant Sloth dung.
