Ever wished you could see what was going on inside your body when you have sex?

You're in luck! A new NSFW video featuring footage from multiple MRI scans affords a remarkable glimpse inside human bodies as they engage in intimate activities ranging from a French kiss to, yes, full-bore coitus.

WARNING:

MRI scanners create still and, in this case, moving images with the help of strong magnetic fields that interact with protons inside our bodies.

And as you can see in the video above, those interactions can tell us a lot about interactions of our own.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging "sees" inside the body by mapping the position of water molecules, which exist at different densities in different types of tissue. Watch the video above for a sample of some impressive MRI images of the human body in action.

Ig Nobel Prizes
First Laugh, Then Think!
Episode 4: Having sex in MRI-scan
Sex in a MRI-scan! Pek van Andel, Willibrord Weijmar Schultz, Eduard Mooyaart and Ida Sabelis conducted the revolutionary experiment in which heterosexual couples made love in a MRI-scan. The Medicine price in 2000 went to the Netherlands.

Ig Nobel Prizes are the not-so-well-known alternative of the famous Nobel Prizes. Each year since 1989, ten scientists receive prizes for "research that makes people LAUGH and then THINK". Watch six scientists and their studies about the most important subjects of our daily life: having sex, food, money, death, and having sex again.
