I'm about halfway through. Is it possible that they were duped by the embalmer and this is actually embalming fluid after it's hardened inside the corpse's blood vessels?
That's interesting. When we did dissections in school, there was this colorful, rubbery substance inside lots of the blood vessels and the heart. We were told it was embalming fluid. My idea was that they were using some of that without the bright dye.
I was pretty interested in this, so I did a little research:

This PDF has a couple of pictures. Eerily similar?

I thought it filled the circulatory system and solidified into a rubbery substance. I an a layperson, though.
