So my head is not "inside" my skull but *is* my skull? Is the brain not a part of my head?

What part of you makes you? Is it just your brain?

Anyway, I think what they're getting at is that the shell is actually their spine, not like some extra thing that grows on top of their spine.

Most ppl think they have a skeleton inside them. But If you think of you as your brain (as many would day). Then your actually inside your skeleton.
