      My wife used to be an EMT and she also taught high school chemistry. She never made a big deal out of being an EMT, but it would always come out during the school year. The students would then immediately take it as a challenge to try to gross her out. The poor dears had NO idea what they were up against.

    0:47 - the part about this accident being the first to make you think you were going to blow chunks reminded me of an incident a colleague told me about, many years ago.
    This happened towards the end of the 1970s, in the South West of England... At that time, my colleague Tim was a police officer, and he had been dispatched to a company that processed rock. There had been a big enough incident that there were multiple ambulances, a fire crew, and police officers. The company used equipment to cut large chunks of rock. The way he described the piece of equipment that had failed made it sound like a huge bench saw.
    Unfortunately, safety guards were not present on this piece of equipment; so when the enormous circular saw blade failed, shrapnel went flying... There was parts of the blade in the ceiling, the walls, and a few of the unfortunate workers. The guy that was operating the equipment however, got the worst of it.
    Tim said he walked into the building and came face to face with the guy, being helped onto a stretcher by the paramedics. A large chunk of the circular saw was embedded in his arm, just below the elbow. That wasn't what Tim nearly lost his dinner over. The blade fragment took a rather straight path to the guys elbow, starting between two of his fingers, bisecting the arm as it travelled. Tim told me, however, that even that wasn't the sight that had turn his stomach.
    The problem for Tim was, that the blade had been so hot when this happened, that it had apparently cauterized much of the injury as it was causing it. So what he could not come to grips with (forgive the unintentional pun), was the lack of blood pouring out of this man's arm, despite it being split along it's length.

      @@Greenhawk4 No idea what happened to him, unfortunately. After he was wheeled out to the ambulance Tim had no further contact with him.
      We can presume he did not die directly from the injury. Such a significant injury probably comes with a serious risk of infection; if that was avoided, or controlled, it seems to me the odds of surviving the injury were reasonably high.
      How much use he retained of that arm and hand is anybody's guess. But I think it would be fair to presume that if he was able to keep the arm, there would be a lifelong reduction in motor control, feeling, and dexterity.
      But I stress that this is all guess work based purely on what seems sensible to me from Tim's account of what he saw.

Most painful thing ive ever experienced, but if i moved to much while the tube went in they said it could hit the wrong spot and worse case kill me, so hold as still as possible.

    My dad is a retired firefighter and there are 2 stories that I will always remember.
    The first one was one of the guys was making beef stroganoff but didn't understand the difference between a clove and a bulb of garlic so this man ended up putting 5 bulbs of garlic into it and the entire firehouse smelled like garlic for a week and they ended up going on a run that night to this old lady's house and the first thing she said was "whos been eating garlic?!" They forever referred to that night as "Garlic fest"
    The second story isn't as innocent. They responded to a motorcycle vs Sudan accident where the Sudan had T-boned the bike and severed his leg. The leg apparently got to ride up front with my dad as he drove and when they got to the hospital they rushed the guy inside and my dad walks in and is trying to let someone know he has the leg but everyone is ignoring him and focusing on the guy so he held it up in the air and just loudly says "I have his leg!" and they all stop and stare at him as a nurse rushes up and grabs the leg. I believe he ended up losing the leg, ending his motorcycle career

    Craziest thing that happened when I was on duty as a lifeguard. Unfortunately (or rather fortunately...?) I was only called in late to divert onlookers. But what happened was this: Some dude in a bathroom stall called for help. Wouldn't answer questions as to what was wrong. Door was opened. One long-ish item that is commonly known to be present in a bathroom stall was suspiciously absent from view. And yes, this was as bad as it sounds: Feeling frisky, this dude had decided that his back passage was too narrow and needed a good reaming - and then concluded that the business end of the toilet brush was THE tool for the job.
    Bro was very obviously ended up in a lot of discomfort, and had decided to have a lay-down before calling for help. Medics were called and showed up promptly. The swimming pool is about 7 minutes away on lights and sirens from the nearest fire station. Considerations were made to call in some heavier equipment and to dismantle the bathroom stall around him since any movement exacerbated his discomfort. Eventually he was carefully extricated without any damage to the rest of the facilities and transported off, laying on his side. We later learned that our hapless ring raider was in the operating room within the hour and had to have VERY extensive surgery. There was a lot of tissue damage. He also was loaded up to the gills with antibiotics and spent some quality time in the ICU. Last we heard that he would have to rely on an ostomy bag for a while.
    tl;dr: If you insert any item with its wide end first into anything, you are doing it wrong. This is a bad idea. Don't do this.

      First responders, nurses, and soldiers in combat zones have the absolute darkest senses of humour about their job - with a strange, delighted fascination in things that would sicken or terrify the average person - so these videos are pretty emblematic of a lot of them and the attitudes they have towards the job.
      It is uplifting, though, because laughing about messed up situations is one of the best ways for them to stay sane and not get bagged down by the darkness of their jobs. And as someone that grew up in a military town, went to school with a bunch of nurses, and has some first responders in the family, I can also say they're all a bit nuts anyways, lol.

      When my dad had his first heart attack my mother asked the EMT's how they cope with the stress of all of this, the high speed driving, having to act *now* because a person's life depends on it, and his answer was "to be honest, we get a kick out of fit".
      I think if you ask medical personnel what they have nightmares about, it's the times they couldn't get there in time, the times they did what they could and the patient didn't make it. There is no way to laugh about that, you just have to accept that you have limits and you will run into those every now and then.
      Soldiers also chose a profession that involves mandatory gore, but have the added trauma of having to do these horrible things to others, while risking getting it done to them. Shellshock is very real.

      The bright side: driver's seat was torn out but the driver stayed with the front half of the car as it skidded down the road about 500 feet forward, and while the pants were totalled the driver had locked up so well that he only got a layer of skin scraped off his butt and only needed a wash and some numbing cream.

If the poop gets too dry or hard this process gets very difficult often with alot of Pain. Now if that already is hard and hurts imagine objects like shampoo bottles or other foreign objects being stuck there and how much it would hurt to force them out. Its technically possible... but a trip to the ER will avoid many hours on the Toilett screaming in agonizing Pain :P

    • @-desertpackrat
      @-desertpackrat 3 месяца назад +112

      Poop isn't actually solid, unless you're sick and have hardened stool which if tht happens, sometimes you can't poop it out. So even actual poop can get stuck in there, your muscles and sphincters can only push so hard in there, they're used to passing a soft lump of digested paste, not a solid object. So if something solid is in there, you can't just push it out again, it will get stuck just like hardened stool and you'll need help.
      This is also why good diet is important to keep your stool in a pliable state, if your poop gets too solid, not only can it get stuck but you trying to strain and force it out can cause fissures and tears inside, and hemorrhoids, so then you have open wounds inside your rectum next to your feces which can get in your bloodstream, very dangerous. If you're even a bit constipated and you push too hard and give yourself a hemorrhoid, you could be looking at a toilet bowl full of blood when you stand up.
      The most important thing is to never let your sphincter close with something solid inside, it doesn't have the strength to push that back out again. Even people who have huge turds, it's not actually solid and that's why they're still able to pass it.
      So that's why.

    As a theatre nurse in the UK I can honestly say that we get a giggle out of the foreign objects that adult secrete in their bottom. We love the stories behind them. (See what I did there?). It puts a smile on the faces of hard working scrub nurses. Washing them to give them back to the owner is probably the worst thing though.

      Gallows humour is a legitimate survival tactic that first responders, nurses, and soldiers use to stay sane in the fact of such horrible and terrifying situations. It really is a necessity to laugh and have a thick skin in jobs like that - which can sometimes appear pretty inappropriate to people who aren't used to reacting the same way to tragedy/bodily horror. That's one of the reasons I love this channel: it really humanizes first responders and the ways that they need to cope just to be able to do the job.

    My parents were firefighter-paramedics. Dad was firefighter full, medic part. Mom was medic full, firefighter part, then she shifted over to firefighter full and dropped medic after Dad got badly injured working as a medic with incompetent partners.
    Beware that below is a story that may disturb anybody that's not been in that field:
    Worst thing I remember hearing was them talking about when they both worked at the same department and pulled a still conscious person out of their burning home... fused to the charred remains of their bedroom door. The poor people outside had PTSD. They had gotten the two dogs that were in the living room right at the front door out of there, but the bedroom was at the very back of the house. They could hear this person beating on their door, then moving around their room, then beating on the door again and they had to hear this person get progressively weaker and then the screaming pick back up as the flames got closer and obviously... the pain began and eventually they apparently passed out slumped against the door and when they had arrived on scene because this was a reclusive elderly person that had opted to live on the outskirts of the city literally because it was far away from most people, the firefighters did their damnedest to get back to that room despite the massive risk of a collapse. They smash the awkwardly placed hinges because this old man had made the house's interior himself and that would probably explain the faulty electricals that got him killed. Majority of it was SUPER illegal. - But they smash this door's hinges then notice this half burnt wooden door is heavy. They slowly lean it forward and realize near the bottom of it the old man was fused to the door by his melted skin and nearly unrecognizable from all the sloughed off / melted skin around the face, chest and upper body in general.
    So needless to say, he did not make it and the heart breaking part was the last thing that dude managed to barely ask was " Are my dogs okay? " which yes, they were. His one neighboring family managed to kick his front door down ad the man of that house actually got his forearms badly burned trying to reach the old man, but the fire had started between the dining room and kitchen in some faulty wiring done by the old man and had quickly spread through the carpet of his home. Those dogs were LUCKY because that guy that saved them by busting in the front door ran in, scooped the dachshund and little terrier up in his arms and then sprinted out. His legs had very minor burns and his arms had bad second and third degree. Was just all around a horrible thing.

      @@adhdhamsterYeah. One time many many years ago - about 1982 - I was home when the university accidentally set their experimental field on fire. Right behind my parents' house. I was scrambling around catching and chasing my chickens toward safety. As the fire got closer to the fence, I redoubled my efforts and unlatched the cover on the annex part of the chicken coop. Mind you, this cover was 6 feet long by 3 feet wide, made of 4x4s around the edge, 2x4s across every 2 feet, and green fiberglass panels attached to it. The thing weighed at least 75 lbs.
      I grabbed the cover and in a mild panic _threw_ the cover into the top of a 10 foot tall prune plum tree. Just like it was a frisbee. At the same time the fire roared through the fencing and burned half my hair off, melted my sandals, burned the backs of my legs, and ruined my sundress. I didn't feel anything at the time; the burns sure hurt later. So did my back from throwing that cover.
      Still glad that I'd rototilled that back part of the yard so the house was safe.

    My cousin is a mechanic who works on locomotives (the big machines that make trains go). He told me about a guy who got crushed across his abdomen as one locomotive passed another on parallel tracks in the train yard. Parts of each locomotive stuck out so there was only a couple inches of space between when they pass by each other, and the guy somehow got caught between them. The locomotive braked immediately, but it was too late and the guy was crushed between the two, but he was still alive because it was across his middle and didn't hit heart or lungs, and the pressure was stopping any bleeding. They called his family in to say goodbye, because they knew as soon as they moved the locomotive and released the pressure, he would instantly bleed to death. Absolutely no way to save him. Workplace safety is no joke!

    Long before I went into my current career, I spent a few years in EMS. The most impressive pain tolerance I have seen was during an ER clinical in paramedic school. Dude was brought in after taking a fall off some scaffolding while painting his house, so they sent in the day 1 new paramedic student, me, to do the patient assessment. It is worth note that this man had not received a single drug by this point, so there no pain medication involved here when I'm talking to him. I walk in the room and he's laid on the bed talking and joking with his wife and kids. I go through the assessment and talks to me as though it's a casual conversation. Super calm and nonchalant about the whole thing, and absolutely no outward signs of pain.
    I ask him his pain levels. The standard 0 to 10 scale. He thinks about it a second and casually responds, "A 9? 10? *shrug* Yeah, it's a 10."
    "Your pain is a 10?"
    Thinks for a second again... "Yeah. I'd say it's a 10."
    I go give my patent assessment to the staff and they send the guy to imaging. The radiologist reported back that the man's pelvis was broken. Really broken. It was in 8 pieces.
