My husband saved my life when insisted I go to the hospital when I thought I had a pulled abdominal muscle. Turned out to be my appendix and it was long overdue for rupturing. I had emergency surgery and survived. Thanks, honey!
EyeLean5280 doctors are too eager to remove the appendix. they have recently discovered it is an essential organ to the proper functioning of the immune system. same with tonsils.
Kara A i was going to die from constant sickness as a baby, it was all caused by my tonsils. Once i had gotten them removed i went 5 years without getting sick.
Kara A is running around making stupid comments that immediately get shut down, love it.
Nice!
It's mind blowing to think that doctors didn't even operate with clean clothes and equipment until late 19th century because they didn't know germs existed.
Yes the lesson being that the most obvious things in our world haven't always been so.
These men are heroes. In a society that values brain dead celebrity crap more than progress in science and technology, we need these kind of people to keep the world going.
AMEN! +1 like
+Job J TAKE MY LIKE GOOD SIR!
I would doubt that the populace back then valued science and technology more than we do today, to be fair...
+What's Their Name Again? That's because the priority was actually surviving (Until the 900's). Now we can concentrate on other things, but it's still the minority who do that on progress.
Most people value useless things over this, to the point that I think that people "back then" spent their brain power in better ways...
+Job J Well said my friend!
Jokes on you! I don't have a life
thats sad
Same
Same
😄🔫💥
+buZZardDUBSTEP YEA! neither do i!!
Oh wait...
ok so they disinfect sewers back then but not their wounds, wtf history
MyMagicCookie6 it did kinda make sense, because to some the miasma theory of disease was still accepted. According to that model, diseases were more or less treated as poisonings, where some caustic chemicals could be used to remove "toxins" (actually microbes) from areas that would obviously be toxic. A wound wasn't considered abviously toxic, hence no sterilization until Semmelweiss and later Lister.
(you will read this in Agent Smith's voice) --- IT'S THE SMELL
I don't like how Semmelweis was completely ignored when discussing Lister. I mean, he was following in his footsteps. Otherwise, nice summary on interesting people :)
Thank you, I was hoping someone in the comments would mention him.
How can anyone dislike this?! These people just come to these videos to dislike and leave. What has humanity come to where we dislike people who saved MILLIONS of lives and adore people like Kim Kardashian who have done NOTHING for society. We need more science-literate people in the world!
+Akash Deo Can we just work together to restore sanity in the world?
+Akash Deo I hear your pain man.
+Rick Astley Thanks Rick. It means a lot.
I will never give you up bro!
I feel your pain.
Pasteur! Recently I studied all of his works for an entire month just for fun. Great guy.
This was really smooth, nice viewing - also great content - thanks guys!
Whenever I see people mention Lister, I always feel sad for Ignaz Semmelwies; never gets a look-in. He tweaked the importance of Hand Hygiene a few decades before Lister, but nobody listened to him because a)he didn't link it to germ theory, and b)everyone hated him because he was a jerk. Still, he deserves the nod.
And even if what these men started didn't directly save my life, it almost certainly saved the life of some distant ancestor of mine in the 1700s or something
Ever been sick? If Louis Pasteur never existed, then you would have been through a number of treatments that would have made it worse. Washing your hands also wouldn't exist, so you would get sick more often
I'm not saying he didn't directly make my life better, I'm saying that I may not have died from disease even if he hadn't been born, and that if that's the case, it's still likely that he saved the lives of one of my ancestors.
I loved this! Thank you for making interesting and exciting content!
Great choice of people! However what about Semmelweis? He pioneered the idea of antisepsis long before Lister, yet he was too early to gain widespread acceptance like Lister did, ultimately resulting in his death when people thought his ideas were madness and committed him. A true martyr
This was a really educational video, thank you
Love these microbiology episodes!!!
"no scientist is an island", what about Ziggler? I heard that he initially researched chemistry on his own in the garage be experimenting with different chemicals. He grew so skilled from this that when he got to university, they let him skip a year to graduation because he already knew so much from his own trial and error
A look into the effectiveness of mouthwash from the norwegian government, found that listerine was about as usefull to your oral hygine as using water to remove bacteria... And it found that most other brands, that felt like they were weaker infact helped your oral hygine alot more.
Just FYI, since you mentioned listerine
I thought Florence Nightingale started the hand washing craze of days past? Shows what i know lol
im going to legally change my identity to literally become an island and i'm going to science so hard.
Thanks a bunch, dudes.
I feel so underachieved because I was just proud of getting the highest in class on a biology test
Nice Fort Minor shirt
Thanks for noticing
I know he is not a scientist, but Stanislav Petrov should deserve the title of saving billions of live. Check about his life.
Fritz Haber is probably the most life saving scientist even though he screwed up later , just look up the contribution of Haber process to humanity !
Funny how we went from Edward Jenner to Kylie Jenner... + What about the penicillin guy? I was waiting for him all along throughout this video!
Semmelweis has introducet the hand disinfetion before Listner. A great batch of Listner knowledge and breaktrough grandet Listner was indeed first introduced vom Semmelweis. If it was not Sommelweis, Listner never have come so far. Please excuse my bad writing and grammar, but englisch is not my native language
I personally would've included John Snow, but that's just me.
That was very interesting :)

The bearded toy reviewer guy??
I still like that shirt. Is that Cuneiform writing?
Fort Minor shirt soooo clutch
MICHAEL IS WEARING A FORT MINOR SHIRT
+runescapeswordshow I was wondering what FM stood for.
Fucking rad I know
What about Ignaz Semmelweis for hand-washing?
May people consider using the word Expert instead of Nerd (since it's not perceived equally).
what about the guy who made Google? or just internet in general? this helped many pass school and if they didn't they would be super poor and die of hunger or something
Penicillin? That has saved billions...
I thought Semmelweis was the guy who first made doctors wash their hands?
wait WAIT?!?! Stitches are made from cat guts?!?
Need to add Norm Borlaug.
SCISHOW FUCK YEAH
My AP World class had a Most Influential Person in the World Tournament, where we each represented a few people from history and argued that they were more influential than our opponent, and we got extra credit for winning arguments. I chose Copernicus, Einstein, and Pasteur, the first of which I lost in a play-in round to Clara Barton (only by one vote though (the class voted)), I won against Charlemagne with Einstein by a landslide, and then promptly lost to Muhammad by a few votes in the next round. Pasteur, who I thought wouldn't make it that far at first because, as influential as he was, no one in the class had heard of him, made it past Carnegie in a play-in round, before beating Gandhi in round one, Zoroaster in round two, and Edison in round three before finally being beaten by Steve Jobs in the final eight.
tl;dr: Louis Pasteur was really freaking influential, especially considering that I was able to convince my classmates of it.
nice fort minor shirt!
The sibilance is strong with this one
I'm born on the same day as Louis Pasteur !
It's a shame we have to say "hopefully" when discussing about early childhood vaccines
Ha ha, Biologists are so cute, they think they're scientists :D
Rawr I've been triggered
I haven't watched the whole video and I'm guessing that they'll mention the guy who discovered germs and washing hands.
What about fritz haber and carl Bosch? Invented the synthetic fertiliser and have prevented deaths by starvation of over 3 billion people
9:20 I'm curious, Is there a medically defined "3rd" stage of human development I'm unaware of besides 'children' and 'adults'? Is there really a term for someone between child and adult that is actually needed?
I like this guy and hank
Who discovered penicillin have saved my life definately.
In my world history class, we were _just_ talking about those first two people.
Not that anyone cares.
You know who like chemistry , Walter White
I was expecting Ignaz Semmelweis when you said he finally got doctors to wash their hands... After all, Semmelweis had been nagging about this until his death and Lister kind of followed up on Semmelweis' theory (2 years after Semmelweis death).. I feel sorry for Semmelweis, he was not taken seriously during his lifetime, and died in an insane asylum before his procedures were accepted as good practice. So let us at least credit him posthumous for his pioneering work.
Same! !! he's is after all the saviour of mothers :)
Lister improved the lot of everyone who needed surgery. What with the medicalization of obstetrics, Semmelweis boosted the odds for . . . everyone who had a mother, as well as all their mothers.
Thank you for correcting that info. So important to know!
Was just reading about Semmelweis today. He should get more credit.
I just finished watching Vsauce2’s video about Dr. Semmelweis. He definitely deserves more praise. Lister built on top of Semmelweis work.
Nice Fort Minor shirt
My parents were anti-vax when I was a toddler, so I didn't end up getting my MMR until I was 16 and "old enough" to make my own decision.
Thankfully I managed to dodge the measles outbreaks when I was younger so I consider myself lucky to have not been affected before then. Getting the MMR was one of the first things I did when I gained legal autonomy.
Sceptagon Same here.
You were still benefitted by the vaccines, even though you didn't get them. When a large segment of a population gets vaccinated, it greatly reduces the chances of everyone getting the diseases, even those who aren't vaccinated. I grew up in the '50's and '60's and they didn't have the MMR vaccines or the chicken pox vaccine. Nearly every kid got those common "childhood diseases". Nearly all recovered fully. The vaccines we did have were for life-threatening diseases: smallpox, polio, diptheria, and whooping cough. They could be killers. - Joy F.
tiger lilly I'm aware of this, we're incredibly lucky to be alive at a time when smallpox and whooping cough aren't much of a concern in the first world. I would still rather be vaccinated though.
Yes; you don't want to get those "childhood diseases" as an adult, especially the mumps, which can cause sterility if you get it as an adult male, and the chicken pox, which has been associated with shingles. I got my shingles vaccine, since I had chicken pox in childhood. - Joy F.
Chickenpox is often fatal for an adult. That's why you were likely brought to a "chicken pox party" as a child.
I wait patiently for the anti-vaxxers to descend upon the comments section.
Maybe he would be saving more lives with the measles vaccine if more people actually used it.
Oh well, as long as I'm vaccinated...😂
+Stuart M actually the vaccine doesn't work 100% of the time. So the only way to be completely safe is to have everyone be vaccinated to protect those for whom the vaccine isn't effective/can't be vaccinated through herd immunity.
not true, herm immunity works on the pretence that those immunised are removed from the susceptible population to cause the rate of gain of infection in the population to be below 0, ie. the basic reproductive rate of the disease will be below 1.
No scientist is an island? Then how do you explain Darwin island in the Galápagos?
Lolseph
Lol XD
I guess it is a reference to Dunnes poem 'Devotions upon emergent occasions' part 17 where it says: No man is an island, entire of itself, each is a piece of the continent, a part of the main, if a clod be washed away by the see, europe was tehe less…

so this pile of hay i just bought will not give me any baby mice. 😢 what is life.
RMA it.
You can't really mention Lister and Pasteur without talking about Semmelweis. He beat Lister to it by about 50 years :)
YES! Semmelweis was a hero!!
Definitely
DIDN'T I KNOW THAT EVERYTHING WAS ABOUT COMPETITION? "He beat Lister to it by about 50 years :)
" I DIDN'T KNOW ... WHAT EVERYTHING WAS ABOUT COMPETITION? I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO WRITE! OMG ! IT IS NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.....
Maurice Hilleman! He's the reason I want to be a virologist. I'm so glad you guys finally talked about him. He's so unknown and it's honestly disheartening
Tori Peacock
Good luck!
Tori - I spent a good portion of my career as a professional virologist, university professor, and research scientist, and I can tell you there are many fascinating reasons to become a virologist. Way back when, and even still today, I considered viruses to be the last great frontier in medicine. The control of these entities has always been an exercise in strategy, since they are so integrally associated with the host cell. You can't just "shotgun" approach them with antibiotics as is done with several bacteria. Many years ago, I created and taught an elective course for senior medical students in Advanced Medical Virology that emphasized effective strategies, but that also sought to educate these young professionals on the history, social, and global political impact of viral infectious disease. I urge you to hold onto and follow that desire to become a virologist. As you learn about the great medical scientists of the past, realize you are the hope of our future! www.RogerKoment.com
This pisses me off they mention Lister but no mention at all of Semmelweis who basically gave up his life when he advanced the idea of hand washing. Lister influenced by Pastuer? Pastuer influenced and communicated with Semmelweis and in fact Lister followed on both of these great coat tails. How about some credit for a man much maligned?
Brian Perkins okay...... Calm down dude
word
@@IamMissPronounced I am with Brian.
One of the things that has fascinated me since I was a child when finding out what people used to believe was why they believed the wrong thing, and why they resisted the truth when it was discovered. With spontaneous generation and germ theory, the biggest reason people refused to believe in microscopic organisms that could cause disease is because they believed that God created the world specifically for mankind. And in a world created specifically for mankind, it would not make sense for there to be organisms which man could not even see which could kill them.
Lister's findings were fought against very vocally. Doctors, and people who supported doctors, found his ideas as tremendously insulting. The suggestion that doctors could be introducing infection to their patients while trying to heal them was seen as the most malicious smear on their character possible. When reading about Lister, it is usually explained (and I was surprised to not see it featured in this video) that he worked at a hospital in which many doctors would deliver babies immediately after performing autopsies, without washing their hands between tasks. Infant mortality in that hospital was astronomically high. Lister was seen as accusing the doctors of being babykillers.
At the time, the public perception of doctors was seen as a crucial thing to preserve. Much of medical practice was as much superstition and guesswork as it was science, and doctors were seen as virtuous and doing their best to 'do no harm.' To face that people with the best intentions are actually causing tremendous damage and death is always difficult, especially for the people themselves. You see this a lot whenever parenting is discussed too. Parents are doing an important job, they have the best intentions, so no one, especially not most parents, is willing to consider that they might be doing far more harm than good.
Thanks for giving me the reason for scrolling down here -
Very fascinating stuff -
+Dustin Rodriguez Thank you for the enlightenment.
Dustin Rodriguez Good comment. Doctors are still viewed in that way today in many countries. However with the rise of the internet people with chronic illnesses are challenging doctors positions due to the fact they now can get easier access to scientific research papers and to other health care professionals around the world.
You know.. the world might be a bit fucked what with all the terrorist attacks and all, but boy am i glad i was born in this era.
I'd be more glad if I were born 100yrs from now
Meikho Deli Heck, who knows if anything will exist by then.
How does a show as intelligent as SciShow have such a horrific comment section? I think looking through these gave me legit nausea.
I agree - the team put in a ton of work, and they often get mindless vitriol. Sadly it seems the goodness of Nerdfighteria doesn't make itself felt enough here.
+Belinda Weber Well, there are only 2 million subscribers in the Vlogbrother's channel and 3 million here. Maybe some of those are the people leaving the bad comments.
The word vaccine triggered it. The anti vac people went crazy.
Thanks only thing from causing me to roof jump
I’ve only seen one antivaxxer comment so far; what are you talking about?
+SciShow -- Joseph Lister based his work on the groundbreaking work of Ignaz Semmelweis, who had long died at the time Lister published his proposals.
from the english Wikipedia:
"Semmelweis *proposed the practice of washing hands with chlorinated lime solutions in 1847* while working in Vienna General Hospital's First Obstetrical Clinic, where doctors' wards had three times the mortality of midwives' wards."
I totally agree, Semmelweis is just too often forget :/
Antoine Meynard -- At least, Austrians and Hungarians are still here reminding people of his work.
+ozdergecko
Where are the Chinese? Things like inoculation date back further in the East. Represent!
+ozdergecko he also didn't mention Pare who was the first surgeon to use catgut as stiches
Alex Seguin yes, and there would be many more. The Semmelweis/Lister part was annoying because it was exactly the same inventions.
i am glad I am born in this era where anaesthesia is available. it must be so painful back them. damnnn
But heeeey, that's just a theory, a GERM theory.
And cut
Just the theory of gravity ;).
+Carlos0220 I usually mute the part of the videos where he does that because it annoys me, especially when I watch game theory. Sometimes it sounds like he's saying, 'that's just a theory, a GAY theory,' because my timing isn't always so good..... :/
Then you shouldn't have a problem with Film Theory.
A theory in science is pretty much fact
"Your immune system will be like 'Hey I know you...'" the best quotes come from scishow and crash course :P
It is people like this that actually make me proud that I am a human. We still have lots of problems, but it is through people like these men who will find the solutions.
You should do a follow up to this, with Norman Borlaug, Robert Koch, Paul Ehrlich, and probably a whole bunch of other people that deserve this sort of recognition.
Ignaz Semmelweis, John Snow, Francesco Redi... All the scientists who inspired these scientists to make these discoveries but died without recognition.
It's actually sad how more people know who Kim Kardashian is, rather than these men who are essentially pioneering this field of Science.
Why Kim Kardashian
you could of went further; they are probably alive today because of a few scientists they have never heard of. our education systems are insane
@@joelfoster7419 cuz she got no talent
Catgut sutures came from the Arab doctors. Specifically a man named Al- Zahrawi.
Who, I might add, washed his hands religiously.
+Adnan Ilyas "washed his hands religiously" I see what you did there. :P
Adnan Ilyas if I create 50 fidget spinners and a company capitalizes on it and makes 1000, who will be credited with creating it
He had no idea why he used it though, they just used it because the romans used to use catgut for the string of their bows. I mean for his time he was a great doctor, surgeon and all but it's not like he was already at the level of knowledge of joseph lister.
Semmelweiss suggested first to wash their hands but when he went dismissed, at least the germ theory could stop those idiots.
Ninonator3 according to Wikipedia the first people to use catgut sutures was the Greek physician Galen. Whether we’re team Arab or European, it seems the ancient Greeks were smarter than us all...
"Doctors will have more lives to answer for in the next world than even we generals." -Napoleon Bonaparte
I'm in awe of how fast he can talk without taking a breath.
He does but during the transitions and if you notice he inhales quietly in between some words
@Marty's 4x4 6 years… the longest gap between comment and reply for me.
Jesus the guy who killed Smallpox died in 2005. That shows me just how recently we really started to understand disease
Check out a podcast called "Sawbones: A Marital Tour of Misguided Medicine." You would be surprised how true your statement is!
Jesus: 1 , Smallpox: 0
+SirNeutral lol that gave me a good laugh.
My great grandma took her kids out to get vaccines right when they were retely available and got some for herself and know she is 100 almost 101 and only when she was 99 did she stop driving and planning parties. She stopped driving because she lives off of a really tricky intersection that most adults can do!
Melina is she still alive?
probably not
Also Flemming, who invented anti-biotics.
Max Đỗ well I mean he discovered them not really invented them ancient civilisations would occasionally use bread mould to treat wounds because they didn't get infected as much but they didn't know why it worked just that it did.
Him and Jenner certainly deserve a spot on this list. I for one would have died a few times if not for that sweet, sweet penicillin.
1503nemanja I almost died because I'm allergic to penicillin
1503nemanja haha, that' s me right now. not dying cause of that sweet, sweet penicillin ;D
Jonas Salk is another good one.
It isn't hard to heat up human flesh, oh you mean and keep them alive. okay.
+Chad Barrett I disagree, if you use the oven it's too dry and the microwave turns it to rubber.
That SHIRT tho! Fort Minor
Yessss
I was wondering why he had runic on his shirt. Are those supposed to be "FMl because those runes actually spell out "OE" xD
+Zuha Ahmed Hmm. Ort Mani if you're an Ultima Underworld fan: Magic Life - ie: a healing spell. Which seems fitting given the subject of this vid.
*JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS:*
The runes are "O" and "M".
What those are for, I have no clue. The commenter above must know, I guess.
+Alexandra Olson yah the FM stands for Fort Minor, Mike Shinobi from Linkin Park's side project
Virginia Apgar is a good one to include. She developed the APGAR score, basically a way of evaluating babies right after they're born to see if they're having any health issues (line trouble breathing, issues with circulation, body temperature, etc.)
argella1300 have you ever noticed only doctors babies get a perfect score? lol. When I worked in the medical field it was a common knowledge/joke. So one day a colleague and I pulled up on the computer all of the files for 5 of the hospitals that our company owned and guess what? Yep it was true lol
argella1300 her birthday was a Google Doodle recently. That's how I know who she is. ☺
not even a nod to Ignaz Semmelweis?? A small mention in the Lister section would of been nice- poor bastard got screwed...
he's dead lmao even if he was alive today there is no amount of thanks we could give these people, they have excelled far beyond the average person.
Yo Michael, minor mispronunciation, but it's said more like Glaz-go, than Glass-go. Just a heads up.
+Vincent Freel Thats how we Americans pronounce it. Just like some Brits put a soft r on the end of America. or we say aluminum differently
Whenever I watch these videos, I get inspired and get a desire to try and make the world better myself!
Thank you SciShow!
A nice comment on RUclips?! How is that possible?
How could you leave out Jonas Salk and Sabine? I was born in 1952 and polio was the killer and maimer of both children and adults. Polio was merciless and nobody knew how it spread. Parents were afraid to let their kids go out and play or go swimming in the summer because of it. My parents were highly educated and were not fearful of vaccines, thankfully, so I was among the earliest batch of kids who were vaccinated and finally protected from this horrible disease.
Most kids lived through and made a full recovery from the "normal" childhood diseases of measels, German measels, mumps, and chicken pox as I did and every kid I knew did. All kids whose ancestors were of European and Mediterranean descent had some measure of restance to these diseases; not enough to prevent getting sick, but to prevent them from being serious or fatal. - JF
I was born in Nov. so I'm 63, and yes, I am on RUclips. Physical age doesn't matter when one has a young, inquisitive mind!! I was on the Internet when it first became available to ordinary people with PC's. There were only 2 internet providers then, Compuserve and AOL. Modems were dial up and very slow, so slow that my husband and I had to trade the internet access back and forth; it would not support 2 users at once!!
Dang SciShow, I can't but help feel like Ignaz Semmelweis merited an honorable mention somewhere between Louie and Joseph.
when are you guys providing subtitles in other languages? i want to show this to my family but they only speak spanish.
Valentina Giraldo
Or maybe they should learn English?
I know! I would like to show them to my family too!!!
Marlon Moncrieffe eurocentric wanker
Fascinating video! Very thought provoking. Though I must add that Dr. Ignas Semmelweis truly deserves the first credit of who pioneered or coined the idea of hand washing. Even though no one believed his theory at the time the man still deserves some form of recognition. R.I.P: Semmelweis 💜
It should be noted Nicolas Appert perfected preserving food by canning years before Louis Pasteur.
Pasteur's contribution was proving it was indeed bacteria that caused spoilage and the invention of a pasteurization that required less aggressive heating and would preserved the flavors of food that normally would be altered by conventional canning such as wine and milk.
This comment gives you immunity from all like comments
Thanks
can this be a series? like 3 scientists who did something great
Fritz Haber probably saved my life and I don't know how to feel about that.
he made weapons aswell
I think as an addition to this list, Alan Turing should also be mentioned. He made the first 'Turing machine' which was the first basic computer. With the Turing machine he broke the enigma machine, the machine that the germans were using for al their communications. Historians have estimated that if Alan would not have cracked the enigma the war would continue for at least 2 years and he saved at least 14 million lives. But that estimation is only if Germany would not have won the war, because Germany was actually very close of winning. So therefor you might even say that Alan Turing saved countless of lives in Europe and also the way we think in Europe.
I saved my sister once!
When her horse went down and landed on her leg when it was getting up it slipped, and before it fell again I quickly jumped off of my horse and ran and dragged her out if it had fallen on her the second time the angle and the were the horse fell it would have killed her.
Thankfully she's was fine despite a bruised leg and a minor sprained neck. So that's the story of how I saved my sister from a falling horse
Is it bad I saw the thumbnail and instantly knew it was Louis Pasteur
yes I'm a microbiology nerd
R/iamverysmart
I for one can prove at least one of these gentlemen saved my life. My great grandfather and his friend were bitten as young children by a rabid dog. My great grandfather was brought to Paris and treated by Pasteur himself with his pioneering new rabies treatment. He survived, his friend who stayed home did not...
forever crying because Glasgow is pronounced with IPA z not s ;_;
+Missus Attila Who cares, scottish people pronounce everything backwards lol I live there and they say "Ken" instead of "know" and "wayne" instead of "kid".
***** I live just outside of glasgow but i'm not scottish myself so i've never noticed much difference between glaswegians and people from outskirts towns like kilmarnock, just me being ignorant i guess.
Error 404: Hodor Not Found it's "wean". A contraction of scots "wee ane" which means "wee one". Just a people trying to cling to the last vestiges of their dialect.
And *I* care. Obviously.
Error 404: Hodor Not Found as some one from Kilmarnock I can confirm your right
I feel like Ignaz Semmelweis got shafted here by your choice of Joseph Lister.
I love this host just as much as I love Hank, this channel is just great, keep it up guys :)
2:50 "Pasteur hit the bottles" >.>
Same
It was a great pun
