Albert Einstein’s eyes were stolen after his death and hidden in a New York safe-deposit box
Albert Einstein's dying wish for cremation and secret ash scattering was partially ignored. While his body was cremated, pathologist Thomas Harvey removed his brain and eyeballs. The eyes, given to his ophthalmologist, remain in a New York safe deposit box, their purpose unclear and their existence a quiet contradiction to Einstein's rejection of physical veneration.
