When your son’s lips are turning blue it’s not just a panic attack from a bad dream. He’s either having anaphylactic shock or something obstructing his airway
OR the evil spirits got him...pay attn.
That's obvious. My question is why didn't an engineer consider that.
@@jaimhaas5170 Evil spirit don't exist in real life ! Stop being psychotic !
I mean it was a really dark room
@@RO_Ecosysteme then explain deep state to me.
This episode was such a fever dream. It's essentially a religious family trying to convince the doctors that the medical treatment has nothing to do with their son getting better
No, no it wasn't. The mother makes it very clear that she doesn't believe any of this stuff until her son started getting very sick.
I mean he did fucking levitate
@mikhailgorbachev7851
Apparently House shows how the levitation trick is done...so says other comments from those that saw the whole episode, anyway.
@@backyardrebel2149 Basically, the kid was arching his back under the sheets in such a way that it looked like he was levitating. House also showed it could be done with wires, just because he could.
@@mikhailgorbachev7851 The grandfather basically helped the kid to seem like he was levitating to force his daughter to believe him.
I learned the levitation trick in high school. The grandfather is evil.
can you explain this trick ?
Was the grandfather full of it?
Or was there more than what was shown here?
@@swordkingx4874 ; It is done with a stick or two, with one or two shoes at the end. If this was not Hollywood, the person being levitated is actually standing or kneeling, with his head all of the way back. The bed cover of course is necessary for the trick. There are several other ways to perform levitation tricks.
@@Desertphile okay but was he actually levitating in the show like did that actually happen or did the grandfather do the trick wth the kid?
@@swordkingx4874 ; In the video, only the grandfather was positioned where he could perform the trick.
No way, mom is engineer, she’s exhausted all possibilities known to mankind
I studied medical Anthropology in university, and this episode is amazing at illustrating the conflicts that happen when people with indigenous beliefs about mental health come at odds to the modern world.
This episode is probably influenced by the book "When the Spirits Catch You, and You Fall Down" which is about a young Hmong girl who is experiencing what her culture thinks is the involuntary spirit possession which is the early stages of Shamanistic vocational initiation and means getting trained by an older Shaman to learn how to manage it. and the Western doctors who are convinced she is having pseudo-seizures, and who want DSS to take her away from her parents to get her "away from that nonsense" and get medical treatment.
@craigsurette3438 I've read that book also! I thought that she was having febrile seizures and suffered brain damage as a result -- so that she didn't walk again --& her parents carried her everywhere after she got out of the hospital. I liked that they planted medicinal plants in the ground surrounding hospital parking lot!
It was an amazing study of the Hmong culture I thought. But... I've never seen a commentary from someone who is Hmong to see if the book was accurate about their beliefs.
I often recommend that book to others.
So how did the kid levitate?
Great comment.
I had dinner earlier w/ guests that included a woman who’d visited the Ark exhibit in KY who proceeded to tell us how enlightening it was, carbon dating’s a myth, etc.
So yeah, religion and science go together like chocolate and spinach.
I lived in S.E. Asia for 10 years. When I 1st went there I didn't believe in any Vodoo/ Black Magic. I would laugh at their beliefs. After 10 years of experiancing many curses and bizzare phenomenom I can assure you there is evil in this world and there are people who know how to use it. 😮
Speaking as a loving father who watched my two week old baby boy hooked up to heart monitoring machines...I'll take as many possible "cures" as you can provide me. Nothing is more frightening than not being able to help your child.
You did it to yourself, noone forced you to have a kid. The kid was forced into life that includes death, though
@@lavrikmaksim1814 you miss the point completely.

This was a tragic episode. By the end, even the engineer believes in spirits. She leaves the hospital convinced that it was a ritual that saved her son, not medicine. Superstition is a very resilient evil.

They're doing it for Peacock lmao
Why was he floating again, i cant remember?
You'd think if a child, who has possible self-strangulation symptoms, they'd have a medical volunteers watch him night and day.
This episode is referencing the sudden increase in SUDS deaths among Laotian-Hmong immigrants in the 80's. Religion and the beliefs behind the dab tsog sleep demon....very powerful.
Meh
Lol at everyone using the levitation as a "gotcha" moment. It's a show, writers and directors sometimes leave plot holes by mistake. If you watch the whole episode it's indicated that the Grandfather is responsible for the levitation trick. House is about the Sherlock Holmes style medical mystery and the human experience, both good and bad. It would be pretty cool if they made a supernatural version of House but this show is not that.
Lol no. If it was a trick. They wouldn't have shown the lady ghost attacking the kid in the beginning.
@ShadowB17 That was the kid having a night terror and the writers/director making it spooky. It's not that kind of show. As I said before they left plot holes. Thats not proof of supernatural forces in a show centered around medical science and people being awful.
@@TheOneandOnlyDeelax I'm Hmong. And our culture go through this all the time. And if it’s night terror. The kid wouldn't have random bruises that aren't there before. He wouldn't even know how to speak Hmong randomly. And the kid has no medical history. And everyone says the levitation is a trick, when clearly there was a doctor besides the grand Father the whole time that would have snitch. House wasn’t there so he wouldn’t know if it’s a trick or not. And the doctors didn't even find any evidence that it was the grand father’s tricks. Besides that, the doctors went through old files with some Hmong cases that had the same issues. And they all end up dead with the doctor’s care. In real life, some hospitals are letting Hmong people to perform their shaman things in California hospitals. And cmon, You think ibuprofen saved the boy after when the doctors tried everything?
@ShadowB17 This is about a fictional TV show based around medical science. It doesn't deal with spirituality in that way, nor is it intended to be taken as implying anything supernatural. On the topic of SUDS/SADS and the Hmong people, I quickly found a lot of information online detailing the medical reasons for what you are talking about but I cannot speak on the topic of strong cultural belief in the supernatural as its not something that I have any experience or knowledge of. I will just leave it at, you believe what you believe, and I believe what I believe. Have a good day, and be well.
@@TheOneandOnlyDeelax I believe in medical science too. And I believe it more than supernaturals. But they are two different things. At some point there’s gonna be somethings that medical science can’t detect. The doctors don’t even know what’s wrong with the boy. They tried everything. Until the grand father perform his exorcism, the boy was okay. That explains a lot. That’s why people need to expand their diagnostic horizon. Yeah, it maybe too hard to believe. But that explains how we humans don’t know that much as we think we do. And I know the show is a medical science show. But that doesn’t mean the show can’t be different.
Im sure once they quit the ibuprofen and the kid has another attack the spirit exorcism will do just fine.
Ibuprofen as a treatment for PDA is not an ongoing regimen - the course closes the ductus and that's that.
@RLplusabunchofdumbnumbers I'm not a doctor nor a medical specialist of these sorts in anyway. I do have a hunch though that the treatment would be reversible if the duct was not completely closed through the entire course of the first treatment. Given the state of the family they were likely to not bother finishing the treatment. I could be wrong though, I'm a rando on the internet.
lol
"Ibuprofen, that's for headaches"
The makers of Excedrin would beg to differ.
Aren't there other brands of ibuprofen also out there?
excedrin is literally ibuprofen + tylenol + caffeine
Excedrin is for migraines not headaches friend.
@@slickers Migraines are headaches.
@@alexhauser5043 actually no they are not... Headaches are normally caused by contracting muscles around your head and neck ever have neck pain that is a headache..
migraines are internally in the brain normally caused by swelling blood vessels which press against nerve endings in your brain.. Source: medical book.
Fun fact: The reason why caffeine is used for migraines is because it is vasoconstrictive which helps to make veins narrow reducing pressure against nerve endings..
Unfortunately "spiritual healing" is very common in many Asian countries, especially out in the country side. To the point even doctors will do it. There was a show that I forgot the name of, that illustrated this perfectly. Once where a young very heavy boy with an eating disorder where he could not feel full from eating. Was brought to the hospital, it took place in China. The doctor prescribed regular acupuncture, and hot coals as a treatment to deal with it. The kid went thru extreme pain and torment but got better. Oh wait, the doctor also put the kid on a very strict diet and eating schedule, which was actually the reason for weight loss, and the routine of having set times to eat and only at those times helped to deal with the eating issue.
The parents latched onto the hot coals and acupuncture, same with the doctor, citing it as the best way to deal with the issue. The show focused on what actually helped the child and how the rest was superstition that forced the child thru unnecessary pain.
it's common everywhere. maybe not to that extent. this world is a mess.
the most ironic thing is that treatments as simple as dieting and regular eating schedules are often overlooked by patients. which leads to two massive hindrances to their efficacy: patient are loosely follow the treatment, and the lack of trust in the treatment favor the nocebo effect.
so in such a situation, if you add to the treatment protocol a completely bullshit element that is uncomfortable or painful, it reduces those hindrances. raising the stakes into "if it doesn't work you have suffered for nothing", it makes patients more likely to be strict in following their treatment and it increase the trust in the overall treatment protocol, reducing nocebo effect.
that's part of why in all sort of shamanism and traditional medicines, you'll often find painful treatments. they literally trigger the placebo effect better.
I tried accupuncture and I swear it works. Perhaps not by triggering certain points in my body, but by making me so uncomfortable that I stopped becoming ill.
Acupuncture is traditional Chinese medicine and isn't "spiritual healing" though. I would think that spiritual healing would be more when people believe an illness is caused by evil spirits
@@lunarro7 Not really since they don't have civilization cores (Sub-Sahara Africa/Latin America), they are just neglected dumps. East Eurasia is a different beast with 2 cores (India and China) battling it out for thousands of years. The fact they also have terrible governance models for that same length of time (modern era included) just makes the issue worse. When the emperor from afar won't do anything, look to your local priest/shaman with the real power.
Did anyone here actually watch the episode after the kid “levitated?” Why are so many asking how he did it, when House CLEARLY EXPLAINED and SHOWED how he lifted himself off the mattress (while hidden by a sheet.)
To be fair mate, I've never seen an episode of House in my life, I just casually watch the clips on RUclips, so that's why I was wandering, but thanks for the explanation, it saves me from annoying you further by asking again 😜🤣 I thought it may have been something like that though LOL
@@patrickhannon4217same
No. I did not. Thanks for that. Don't be snarky.
No, all I've seen are these clips, which didn't include that part.
That explanation requires that the kid play an active role in the deception. What was his motive for doing so?
Well Gizmo? Over to you, It doesn't help that I've had a drink or two and I'm a bit fed up (for private reasons), but why don't you CLEARLY EXPLAIN IT to those of us who weren't SHOWN?
Honestly disappointed in houses lack of presence in this one. Something more satisfying about figuring out a superstition in a medical way.
Ok moms, if your son’s lips are turning blue and you think it's just a panic attack from a bad dream, it's not! He’s either having anaphylactic shock or something obstructing his airway
Nice copied comment. Looks like you're a literal sheep after all.
it's just a TV show. okay moms what. You think women are stupid?
If a man chokes your child, you call the police, you don’t allow that man to spend time with your child unsupervised. Imagine choking, your airways closing, struggling to breathe and someone who should help you just sits there and says “honey you’re fine, relax” unbelievable, I would never trust that person again in my life.
you're dense. there was no man choking her child. those scenes of him being choked were both "dreams" he was having while he was asleep.
MOM: Lou?
ME: hospital. . .
MOM: LOU?!
ME: HOSPITAL! NOW! YESTERDAY!!!
*Lips turning blue*
Mom: "relax"
🙄🙄🙄
Sorry not sorry but I would also be upset at the end if I was the doctor. Grandpa did not save him.
I wish we could have gotten a normal season of Park, Taub, Chase, and OthergirlwhoIdidn'tlike. I was exhausted by the whole "meditation on human suffering" thing they were doing for the finale arc.
Park was insanely bad...who could have picked her to be in this series. Someone's relative of the director or producer?

_kids lips are blue and is visibly struggling_
"Mom I can't breathe!"
"Yes you can, you're fine, just relax."
I love this show but man, some scenes are wildly irrational xD
Even if you are an Engineer and your son literally says he can't fucking breathe, you're a terrible parent.
Did she ever use her profession to prove anything else that she didn't believe in her ancestral religion?
I know a lot of non-parents are up thumbing this comment.
You literally are not. Most people who can’t breathe don’t talk. Most people who have panic attacks say they “can’t breathe”. She’s not a terrible parent. What an insane thing to say.
@@babyvia6712His lips were blue, you want to say anything else?
@@Silencer796 Yeah, I want to know why someone whose lips are blue…is able to fucking talk. Something that people who can’t breathe, don’t do. But for the sake of television, it’s important that she doesn’t interrupt the action and it’s important that he says something dramatic.
kids face turning blue
mom > "its fine take a deep breath"
bruh, if he could he would have !
worst is that ppl like this actually exist ...
Yeah people who don’t have perfect vision in the dark…could you imagine?
Yes it’s fiction but it’s wild to imagine that you could be a parent and not know blue is a colour your skin should not be.
This episode highlights just how dangerous apophenia can be
THE POWER OF HOUSE COMPELS YOU!!!
Kids wearing a fuckin spo2 monitor while being choked..
Maybe the boy had schizophrenia or something with hallucinations. The first scene did kinda remind me of sleep paralysis I have a dream of this person just pushing down on my chest and I woke up and I felt like I couldn’t breathe for a few minutes. Those are the only two things I can think of for this episode
bruh thats the worst mom ive ever seen lol
"I'm am an engineer I know illness aren't caused by evil spirits" .... The Tobacco industry "I think we found our next company spokesperson"
i believe she was trying to equate being an engineer to someone with high intelligence and common knowledge. i don't think it was a matter of trying to say "an engineer is close to being a doctor"
Ur gonna feel a little pinch and then u won't feel a thing. Ya that should calm a patient down
Okay when he kept saying he couldn’t breathe and his lips went blue and she kept saying just relax, didn’t even sit him up to help him ..I wanted to fight her!
There are cases of demonic possession and oppression, although they are extremely rare compared to even standard rare conditions. The cases must fit certain criteria and must be able to reasonably demonstrated as anything beyond a medical event. Because the boy is being helped with Ibuprofen, it’s not a case of demon possession.
I hate to break it to you, but there is absolutely no case for Demon possession ever now if you’re talking about cases that come from religious people then yes they have supposed demon possession but here’s a thing. Why is it? The exorcism only happened with religious people and has never happened with non-religious people maybe that’s because people are indoctrinated into a make-believe story and they’re in grain so heavily they believe it’s that when there’s been lots of documented cases of people that supposedly had demon possession but actually had a real medical condition that needed help and those people ended up dying, someone saying that their possessed by a demon at the end of the day those people are gonna have to prove that demons are actually real, but they can’t just because you can’t explain something in the moment doesn’t mean you can’t explain it at some point
People will always believe what they want even if it is illogical and bs. Doctors save lives fake entities get the credit.
It's so frustrating. Religion is a cancer.
YEP
Doctors also cost a lot of lives and they don't get the blame.
5:19 **halo theme starts playing**
They could have proved the point and not given him the meds.
never thought id hate a house episode
Same here lol
if i was Taub i would be fuming about the whole levitating act, the Grandfather was right there, he was the one faking a translation and also sacrificing pigs.
i do not have problem if you wanna believe whatever you wanna believe, but interfering into saving someone life and acting like nothing is happen when your grandson is supposedly floating. straight up F*** OFF. both of those thing make him a terrible person. his values are straight up beyond saving, solitary confiment for life would be a kindness.
The grandfather wasn't faking anything. He genuinely believed the boy was possessed. Like House said, he heard what he wanted to hear, and then gave the doctors his translation.
@@addisonwelsh false information is considered fake regardless of intention.
We dont say the journalist had an interpretation which was inaccurate, they reported fake news.
And im more mad about the reaction he gave when the grandson was floating instead of shock or surprised he was looking at the doctor as if he was right.
The people who make the show wanted to give that impression, because they told that actor what to do. And so. The character literally acts like nothing is happening while the Grandson floats?
Again if i was a doctor and i knew the same things as Taub. I would probably get security to prevent him from entering the hospital.
@@darkwin1977 The journalist comparison is none sense, because the grandfather was not knowingly providing false information. He was telling what he believed to be the truth.
And since your only reason for wanting the grandfather banned from the hospital is the fact that you don’t like him because he’s religious, you’re gonna get hit with a discrimination lawsuit.
Do they explain within the episode why the kid started levitating, because if not I'm real tempted to believe grandpa on this one, unless reinforcing gravity is an off-label use for ibuprofen.
It's a magical illusion trick. It requires the covering of the lower body to hide some sticks and stuff that the grandfather placed. You can look up tutorials for it actually!
How did they explain the kid levitating...?
magic
House explained with his levitation trick. Kid just arched his back, and no one thought to yank the sheet off him before he un-arched.
@@GizmoBeach oh ok thanks :)
@@GizmoBeach But he didn't. He was flat. His body was parallel to the bed.
Fairly common stage magic illusion
Lol so they're just going to ignore the fact that this kid was levitating 🤔
im sorry but if your son is panicking like that and says he can't breathe that is NOT normal. Doesn't need a doctor to tell you that.
… well that’s a huge slap in the face to the doctors who were working very hard to try and save that kids life. And how could she say that for certain, when the doctors gave him ibuprofen at the same time?? It’s fine to believe in that if you so choose, but too much belief can sometimes be deadly. I do believe that the human mind is complex and can sometimes be capable of seemingly impossible things. People can survive unimaginable hardships with their faith alone, but people have also died from exorcisms. I’ve also heard of stories about people practicing rituals in hospitals which have shown noticeable improvement, and on the other hand a study was done about a group of kids being prayed for ending up worse then the group of kids who were not prayed for. Faith and belief are truly something that you should always be careful with.
No... ibuprofen is not for headaches,its for inflammation
Which are often caused by inflammation.
When your paramedics in America (USA) also can't recognize the signs of a hemorrhagic stroke in a teenager, they should be fired...
This seems like a failure of a situation overall...
Actually calling it an excelsism is wrong. The shanmen is actually calling the boy sprite to come back.
very reminiscent of Anne Fadiman's excellent book The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down
Typical House storyline...after a Colonoscopy, MRI, Lumbar puncture, Brain Bio, and a Prostrate exam... Treat with an Advil.
Dude if I saw my son floating inna hospital bed with 1 other person and watched the doctor check under the blanket and there was no other conceivable way of it being a trick i’m definitely trusting the old man like what
"mom I can't breathe"
Mom:- relaaxxx, 💆🏻♀️, sloWWWWW deep breathe🌬️
interesting, in northern North American tradition people were sometimes suffocated if they were possessed by a wendigo spirit
Fully believing in the spirit mumbojumbo is a quick ride to killing someone
"I'm an engineer. At the first sign of hardship, I'll turn to god."
Wtf as an actual Hmong person I was shooook when they said he was speaking “Hmong.” It’s so bad I didn’t even understand it the first or second time around. I had to rewatch it and literally try to make out what he was actually saying
I think if I was the Devil , I would also go very mad that everyone allways blame him for everything they do wrong , Be blessed.
i remember a certain episode of the Avatar the last air bender about the fortune teller..
Oooh, under an hour!

Ma boy flyin
Shes an engineer, yet she doesnt believe in the machine spirits?
Did they explain the levitation?
I believe not
Kid arched his back, and the reason everyone was stupid enough to believe it is because House wasn't in the room.
House gave a far fetched rational explanation for it, which is completely in character given that he's a firm non believer within the medical field. he was also not in the room, so of course he would come up with a rational explanation or some sort, no matter how over the top it may be
So he floats and what? we just forget all about it lol
This is not accurate to the myth. It’s a Chinese myth of why babies pass, it’s called a sitting demon who sits on the child while they sleep.
You guys take this way to seriously. Weird things happen in House M.D. and the real world. Some can be explained convincingly. Some can't.
Admittedly this episode wasn't as good at keeping things on the fence to prevent religiously atheistic individuals from being triggered.
Kinda mad at mom not listening to son. He said that wasn't it and she just let him stop breathing. Who does that?
Whenever you are scared, just read or play Hanuman Chalisa 🚩💯
Never been this early on a house video.
Lol same tbh
No wonder the Missus refuses to watch these with you.
“Call a code”
“Im giving him ibuprofen”
*magically gets better”
Baby aspirin for heart attacks??? Never heard of it?
I've Googled, it's a common treatment of PDA.
@EnviousExorcist Many symptoms are relieved with anti-inflammatory treatment. Inflammation is a common contributing factor to many physical complaints.
@@curious1366 my brother in christ you cant cure a code with ibuprofen
How did none of you see that was clearly edited?? The kid didn't instantly get better it was just cut to look that way??
Always cringe when media with medical setting like tv show, movies, comics do this.
If it were show like supernatural or any with supernatural setting it would be at least watchable.
Why was the grandfather in a dark room with the kid alone oh it was just a dream 😅
Why wasn't House in this episode to see the levitation?
call 911
This seems crazy until I remember that every time we get inexplicably sick it’s something spiritual and we perform religious rituals so we can get better 😂
That kid does not have a future with a mother like that and especially with a grandparent like that
They're Hmong, tribal mtn people who stand up to the Chinese, but they still have their old beliefs. Suni Lee is Hmong/us gymnastics Olympic team!
@@dawnpence3248 I understand that but the issue is still that in universe that the boy will fall ill again and then they'll try to heal him but... Y'know. They won't use the right medication.
Does anyone know who plays the grandfather? He looks really familiar.
That's ending iswhat i hate about house, whenever they make such episode about blind faith they purposely act as it is open ended in the end about what actually treat it. Sure sometimes people are just too stupid to change their beliefs but house md do this everytime.
Because it's an incredibly religious country, and they couldn't possibly suggest that religion _wasn't_ the answer because they'd have a huge backlash.
I hate it too, it's annoying af.
So they arent going to talk about how he was floating. The grandfather did a trick didnt he.
Muscle contraction. The kid arched his back, made it look like he's levitating while he was covered with sheets
@@KaterynaKuts that would be the rational explanation for the people rooting for team science and medicine. you people gotta understand the point of House explaining it like that😂🤦🏾♂️ it's not cuz it was the true reason, it's because thats what House believes. which is the point of the episode itself....a battle of beliefs
Season 8 Episode 18
Whew boy, that mother would get her son killed, House's team should have contacted CPS.
How was he floating
These people are truly delusional. It’s sad.
But they aren't lol. The Doctors tried everything and they said the kid seems to be fine but they don't know why he's still sick. Until the grand Father perform his thing. He was right. If you think ibuprofen can stop people from levitating and getting random finger bruises on their neck. Y'all stupid.💀
When dumb parents attack 🤦🏿♀️ his lips are blue and he was gray she is annoying
can yall make a favor for dr mike make this more i am not hating just saying cause seeing him speak while not breathing is crazy
ok but how tf that kid was levitating?
It's a birthday-party level stage magic trick that requires barely any prep.
So, how did he levitate?
How do stage magicians saw their assistants in half?
@@VelvetSanityThe grandpa brought in a machine to make it look like he levitated? The doctors wouldve seen it
@@strider7198, fortunately (or unfortunately) the levitation trick only requires two sticks, two shoes, and a blanket, which any numpty can find just about anywhere. It's also, like, birthday-party level stage magic.
I hate this episode so much
And people wonder why other cultures are dying. Well, this is the main reason.
Lol no other cultures are dying. And the grand Father clearly saved the boy.💀
I haven’t seen the entire episode so can someone explain like I’m a kindergartener. What is going on!?
the episode itself is meant to be a battle between Religious beliefs and Science/Medicine believers. The Grandfather and "possessed" child would be the driving forces behind the religious side, and House would be the driving force behind the medical side. both sides give the audience enough clues to believe in whatever side they choose to believe in, meaning neither side gets proven as fact or false....just that either one could be possible for the viewers to be on the fence about. as far as explaining the plot tho, the kid is just having a severe sickness that could be explained and solved through the already standing religious beliefs by his grandfather and family, but the sickness is also able to be explained and solved by science and medicine. coincidentally the sickness goes away during the process of both sides' solutions being executed. so it further allows people to believe whatever they want
Not sure which came first, this or the Grey’s Anatomy episode dealing w/ Hmong customs.
Not crazy about saying it, but this was probably the least-interesting House episode (in terms of the human drama and medical aspects)
The most memorable moment was House’s levitation trick (gasps) (I feel so drained!) but other than that, just a weak S-8 entry.

There is a difference in believing in spirits or a god and take part in harmless rituals to ease them and what people like this episode's grandpa are doing. Tradition is important,. but some things NEED to die out for the sake of the people suffering from spiritual mumbo-Jumbo.
