Nicolae Minovici, medicul care a cercetat moartea ca să învețe cum poate fi salvată viața: „M-am spânzurat singur de 12 ori“
Nicolae Minovici, a pioneering forensic doctor, conducted dangerous experiments on hanging to understand its effects, leading to significant advancements in forensic medicine. His findings revealed that death in hanging is not always due to asphyxia, but can result from interrupted blood circulation to the brain. Minovici's work also helped uncover hidden murders and improved corpse identification methods. He performed notable autopsies, including that of Queen Marie, and developed techniques that transformed forensic practices in Romania.
