Once hailed as the leading pioneer in human cloning and stem cells, he was subsequently vilified by accusations of improper procedures and falsifications of research mainly involving his students and other team members. Similar to the Greek character, Icarus, Hwang rose to glory too fast, flew too close to the sun and fell into the sea completely disgraced and ostracized. I’m sure Icarus felt better about his fate than Hwang felt midway through this ordeal.

Many countries initially banned therapeutic cloning but these days many countries are passing legislation allowing for the research so that they don't get "left behind" in the global stem cell race. Good one. If he bumps you, just don't call him Frosty.....get it....Frosty the Snuman!! Anyways.

HAHAHAHA…snuman..
