Between Life and Death

2010 · Film · documentary · 50 min

Directed by Nick Holt

Documentary

Provocative documentary following the doctors who can now interrupt, and even reverse, the process of death. Filmed over six months in the country's leading brain injury unit (Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge), it follows the journey of a man who, by only moving his eyes, is eventually asked if he wants to live or die. Two other families are also plunged into the most ethically difficult decision in modern medicine.

    Looks like a neat idea and could help a bit but not as cool as http://revolights.com which has to be my favourite bike visibility system. It's mounted on the wheels, persistence of vision based and knows when to illuminate the LEDs.

    However, non of these make cycling (especially in London) safe. I wouldn't cycle in London any more as it's just too dangerous, but I did for years. I always wore high vis and a helmet and obeyed the rules of the road and I still had far too many close calls and incidents with other vehicles.

    If you want to see how tragic just one of very regular London cyclist deaths is then this is on iPlayer for the next week: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b05y18wv/an-hour-to-save-your-life-series-2-1-between-life-and-death
