Funny you mention Ted Williams because I was going to post about him...saddened me as a Red Sox fan when I read this a decade ago.
They fucked up his head awhile ago by improperly freezing it (among other protocol issues):
"Johnson says he worked for Alcor for eight months in 2003, first as clinical director then as chief operating officer. He included several photographs in the book, including one of an upside-down severed head, not Williams', that had what appeared to be a tuna can attached to it.
Johnson says Alcor used the cans, from a cat that lived on the premises, as pedestals for the heads.
Williams' head was being transferred from one container to another when the monkey wrench incident took place, Johnson said in the book. When the head was removed from the first container, Johnson described it.
"The disembodied face set in that awful, frozen scream looked nothing like any picture of Ted Williams I've ever seen," he wrote.
Johnson said that an Alcor employee tried in vain to remove the tuna can.
"Then he grabbed a monkey wrench, heaved a mighty swing, missing the tuna can completely but hitting the head dead center," Johnson wrote. "Tiny pieces of frozen head sprayed around the room."
The next swing, Johnson wrote, knocked the can loose.
Johnson also contends that there was a significant crack in Williams' head."
