lessons to be learned: 1. just get a divorce if its that bad, dont try to kill someone 2. if you are not on good terms with someone, maybe just prepare your own food and beverages instead of making them do it for you

I felt that happen on my arms from chemicals at work, once it sloughed off the superficial layer and it left this little holes in my skin from places that I had clothing contact. The pits felt almost slimy. It’s a really skevy feeling. After they healed, they ended up looking like chicken pox scars, where they are a little indented.
Knew a good friend whos father was a environmental engineer Forgot the story but they had stuff on their baseball pants and he poured nitric acid on his leg because he thought it was water. Lets just say he saw his bone.
That is how you make soap. My grandmother would make soap. She would use pig fat and lye and cook it. She would then let it cool on a cookie sheet and cut it into bars. That soap was primarily for laundry, she would shave off pieces and throw them in the washer. That is all I remember since it was around 70 years ago.

Jesus christ when you get to the point of passively aggressively jabbing at eachother due to frustrations, it's either time to sit down and try to talk it out peacefully, or separate for everyone's health.
Yeah. No matter how much of an a-hole your spouse is, just get a divorce. A divorce lawyer is still cheaper than a first class team of lawyers trying desperately to keep your prison sentence below ten years.
@@JuMiKu Agreed. Though in some states stuff like this happens due to money. Ether the state gives no protections to a low income or no income spouse so they are completely dependent on a wealthier partner who is abusing them, or a state has really harsh alimony laws where the wealthier partner will have to continue to pay for the upkeep of the poorer spouse and is tired of being used and disrespected by a deadbeat. In these rare extreme cases I can kind of understand where the poisoner is coming from, though doing it in such a cruel way and being able to just watch them suffer like that does counter that sympathy. Like I said, sympathetic cases are super rare. Most poisoners are ether just greedy or cruel and vindictive people. I think states should really reform their divorce laws to have the wealthier spouse only give temporary support to the poorer spouse, and the poorer spouse only getting property they contributed to in some small way, and that all marriages even between financial equals should involve prenuptial agreements to avoid all this mess.
For those that don’t know, drain cleaner can even eat through plumbing pipes if not flushed properly. I’m not sure if I should specify that your body is generally less resistant to most corrosive substances than plumbing pipes…
In the Army during KP I merely inhaled the fumes from a caustic cleaner being used to clean the grill, and that plus a cold I'd caught, got me a couple-three days in the hospital. I looked sicker than I actually was, because the fumes actually made skin sluff off of my tongue and throat.
I'm a plumber, i frequesntly go to calls where customers use draino before they decided to call me, draino is not so bad i get it on my skin often, the drain cleaner that was used in this story was draino, I never had to look at the label to know whats in it you can smell the lye and bleach, often times draino is just bleach and water. sometimes they mix lye in it, this stuf is not so bad, now the stuff that professionals may use is actually an acid, i dont need to use it often but i will. its concentrated 99% sulfuric acid, that will eat through metal pipes and ANY organic material including soaps, hair, grease, and yes flesh. draino itself wont cause any damage to your pipes, but the acid i use will, i can see it start to melt metal if i pour it down a metal drain, which i will do if im using my judgement as a professional, Draino is the weak stuff, the acid is the better stuff and a drain snake is the best one
@@21stcenturystrengthethos47 NaOH is still corrosive enough to destroy a considerable number of metals. Also, since when was *FUCKING CONCENTRATED H2SO4* used as a drain cleaner?
About three months ago a news story came out about a male doctor installing a hidden camera. The camera cought the Drs wife (also a doctor) pouring drain cleaner into his drinks. So unfortunately this line of particular abuse and attempted murder has occurred recently. Thank-you for covering the affects that drain cleaner can have on the human body.
I was involved in taking care of a boy who accidentally drank pure drain cleaner from a soda bottle that his dad used to fill at work to bring it home for his personal use.

My ex monster did this for 8 yrs. Different pesticides and rat poison and other stuff. I was going to this Dr and that Dr and not on requested a toxicology test. I'm sick now and I know it is from his hands. Detective couldn't do a darn thing. Please be careful ppl. I wanted to live to a 100 and maybe I have a year left. Heart is messed up.

My guys, do you not realize that 1) the comment wasn't gender specific 2) the guy is clearly the recipient of abuse 3) it was prolonged abuse, not picked up by the doctors until very late due to severe internal illness? Point still stands, some form of abuse isn't visible, unless made into a video segment, only then is it apparent.
Hey Dr Bernard! I recently came across the story of a well known guy who drank Radium back when they thought it would 'energize' the body and they had no idea of what radiation actually does. Would be incredibly interesting to see you handle some of these old documented cases and explain the difference between medicine/doctors back then and now. As always your videos are incredibly interesting!

There was no underestimation here, a common business woman knew that drain cleaner would likely kill her husband. People know what's poison, it's usually a mistake. Plus, things like antifreeze have a sweet taste which is why kids and dogs get into it.
Scot, why are thanking this doctor when he paints the down and out husband as a parasite? How many house wives live off their husbands like this with no disapproval from anyone
As somebody who suffered with a GI perforated ulcer in my mid 20s, the initial pain was the worst I've had, swat was poring down my face, I was chewing on the couch to try to relieve it. The pain started subsiding when the ambulance arrived, and then the same would happen ten minutes later. When the doc saw me the pain had subsided again, and because of my age assumed indigestion and prescribed omeprazole. On the way home, the pain started yet again, as the hours went by, the minutes of relief from the pain decreased until it was constant, and so painful I couldn't even cry; I was becoming tired after 12 hours and parents saw me and rushed me to the hospital. They took an x-ray and found gas in my stomach, at that point they realised I had a perforated ulcer and peritonitis, a pain I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy!
To add to this. I was a person who had chronic testicular torsions, have had multiple mouth surgeries, also take pantropazole for ulcers. Out of the three I'm heavily split between ulcers and mouth surgeries. The torsion I got every 6 months was painful as most would suspect but you could get in a position and avoid the pain to an extent. Mouth surgery recovery, I could actually sleep. So it would definitely also for me being that GI damage has the highest suffer rate.
This reminds me of a video my anatomy teacher showed us once. It was a man that tried to kill himself by drinking drain cleaner, but he survived. It took out most of his GI tract, so any food basically went straight from entry (which I think was a port directly into what was left of his small intestines) to his colon. I remember him saying that when he ate "food" (a blended paste) he passed it through completely in like 10 minutes.
@@AGElite87 I'm pulling these memories from deep within my brain, but I feel like he said that he had to "eat" like 10 times per day. I mean the video clip was from the 90's or early 2000's do I doubt he is still alive now.
This woman is terrifying. Poisoning someone slowly and in a way that the symptoms align with your existing medical issues to gaslight you and all your doctors... That takes dedication. I hope she's in jail.
I hope forever she shows signs of a serial killer you woukd be terrified how much black widows are outside never held accountable for their crimes there are plenty of ways to kill a man with poisons in a way that deaths are occur which seem natural especially things which go on the cardiac system and provoke cancer. This field of the female killer or even serial killer is extremly over looked also because our cultural cliches.

@@marihawley lol I know, in all honesty I do KINDA get it as far as, it wasn't every single day, it was different amounts every time, drain cleaner is bitter like coffee, he already had random stomach pain from ulcers already and of course the saddest part, people usually don't expect the person they love to be slowly poisoning them to death. Its easy to say from the outside that its so obvious when its all said and done, but its not so obvious when its happening to you.
As a nurse student I had a lovely beautiful patient who lived from the 1960s through 1985 having drank drain cleaner to commit suicide in the rehab facility attached to our Hospital. Her story was very sad. she had fallen deeply in love with a wonderful man who had taken her away from poverty and they're only child was killed in Vietnam. Sadly it killed the husband he had been an older man and his heart couldn't take it within the year he was gone. She was so bereft and so alone even though his family loved her turned out that she was an orphan and had no family she had come from an orphanage in the 1930s and met him just after the war. She was the epitome of Elegance but that little darling you had to watch her because she dearly wanted to taste food and back then they couldn't save you they couldn't save anything and she had nothing below her vocal cords basically she was fed through a tube in her stomach luckily the drain cleaner didn't make it that far she vomited it up since it was so caustic I think she really drank the solid stuff and so she could only melt Jello and sherbet in her mouth and swallow that because she had to keep her throat lubricated. she could talk with a whisper so beautiful and so elegant and his family just adored her. Us nurses because I did get hired on there after training and getting some of my licensing and then going on for my bigger degree I stayed as they had a good reputation and I loved my patience some of them were who's who of Hollywood and some of them were people like her who had been left behind. Never quite understood his family they would bring boxes of candy they meant it for us nurses and her roommate they knew she couldn't eat any but that little stink pot would sneak a piece and she would always swear she meant to spi it out but it tastes so good and she really thought that it would melt enough to swallow and we'd be in there pounding a piece out of her throat. I was so glad for her when she was able to be released from this Earthly burden on an amazing rain and Thunder filled night unusual for California as she Slipped Away to meet her boys. I would never wish that life on anyone even if you accidentally drank it or someone fed it to you I just cannot imagine someone being horrible and doing that. It was so odd that all these years later my medical facility is Infamous for the doctor who tried to kill her husband with Drano. He caught her on video putting it in his coffee. She thought she could bamboozle the investigators. I hope she pays as she knew how much it would hurt him physically Not only was she trying to kill him but she tortured him doing it.
Although good, they were badly timed to be honest, I would have been suspicious after 1 look like that straight into my face while I'm in agonizing distress... Those looks would've made sense if they were away from the partner, behind his back, while showing a perfect pokerface near him, or even looks of mutual distress for seeing her partner in pain. Acting on-screen and acting in real-life are two completely different beasts.
@markus belzer "a video to make a point with humor" No presentation will add humor to murder. Ok, that's not true, but this one sure didn't accomplish it.
There's quite a difference when there isn't a "full" in that sentence. It does give great perspective on how much we take our health for granted and what a difference it would make if we just made a recovery.
@@bobdrooples If you've watched enough chubbyemu you know that is his his code word for the patient wound up with some debilitating lifelong complications from what they went through
The skit in the background of the narration is really entertaining. It's not bad for most likely being relatively low budget. Great job investing into the addition of content for your videos. Wish they were more frequently uploaded but the production value and intriguing medical journals discussed is well worth the wait in between uploads. 💕
The actors are absolutely hilarious, I feel terrible at laughing at the way she walked out the door when her husband lay coughing to death on the floor. Had me just about dying 😂😭
This channel has the most subtle humor ever. Everything is all serious, professional, and articulated. Then randomly just uses "While he was taking a dump"
0:38 Hearing Chubbyemu use a non medical term like "Taking a dump" is kind of surprising. I expected him to say defacating, or some other formal medical term.
honestly it's surprising to me how long it took him to feel effects i had always assumed drain cleaner was one of those things where the first little dose immediately is catastrophic
he may be discontented with life and with his wife, but he trusts her, never suspected her of anything, especially not for attempted murder. total psycho woman should have her career be utterly ruined for this.
He had a history of ulcers though, so he was already used to his stomach having horrible open wounds. He regularly aggravated them with coffee and capsaicin too, so his pain tolerance might just be way up there

I actually recently accidentally dropped toilet bowl cleaner in a mop bucket of bleach and pinesol. Creating chlorine gas, Inhaling the toxic fumes. I'm just lucky I didn't inhale more than I did. I'd like to see emu cover something related to my recent experience. But I also just thought I'd share my experience. I didn't have any burns in my lungs or anything. Just weird/heavy breathing. Definitely a scary experience.
You definitely got off lucky. At least you didn't mix bleach and ammonia, but get hydrazine (aka the explosive liquid used as fuel for reaction control systems and orbital maneuvering thrusters on spaceships) instead of chloramine!
theres a 1000 ways to die episode on that... one of the first few episodes in the first season. watched it a few weeks ago but got bored with the series
I cannot imagine the absolute misery and unyielding pain this man probably experienced. Yes, he may have been a completely lazy douche, but he certainly did not deserve this. Plus, he is extremely fortunate that he survived and will potentially suffer from permanent effects. One time, I carefully poured drain cleaner into my bathroom sink due to a sluggish drain and must have only been in the BR for 30-45 seconds (maybe less). Approximately two or three minutes later, I could taste blood in my mouth and ended up with a sore throat lasting for a couple of days. That happened to me due to being exposed to just the fumes for less than one minute! I cannot imagine actually consuming this substance! I learned a highly important lesson when dealing with drain cleaners- open windows, turn on the exhaust fan, and wear a mask and goggles- these products are extremely dangerous! It makes me extremely leery to ever use them again.
Looks like this was based on the case of a california dermatologist who poisoned her husband by putting drano in his lemonade. In this particular case, he wasn't actually a freeloader and also she and her mother abuse their kids. So it's even more evil than what chubbyemu made it out to be. For context, he often changes details around slightly and adds things here and there so a case study is more suited to be in a long-form video, i.e. the hospital segment, which isn't discussed in-depth in any of the news articles I've found, with Dr. Chen (the victim, a radiologist) describing his suffering as simply "serious internal injury." I think it's quite a smart way to go about generating educational content in a way that respects privacy of the patient, because it takes a good deal more effort to dig up info on the real case than it would be if he just used their real names (he does occasionally, with permission from and in collaboration with the actual patient. See his longer video on RMC, as well as his video on toxic burn pits, they're perhaps the best examples of this). I had to go ruining his efforts, though, because the prospect of a wife poisoning her husband and possibly getting away with it was too nasty to ignore.
@@lsswappedcessna Ah, I see. I can totally understand why he would "edit" real-life situations to get the educational point across. I am going to look up Dr. Chen's horrific experience. That said, thank you for a very detailed and fascinating explanation. Appreciate it, friend.
@jirachi-wishmaker9242 he wasn't even a douchebag. Let's not forget who was the only being passive-aggressive and continuously poisoning a person and then got mad when the victim said "hey this coffee tastes funny." The woman was the real douchebag here.
I am hooked on bingeing your videos. The Easter egg of the wife using your merch coffee cup to poison her husband. The script about the couple's story and interactions were pure gold.
And she wasn't charged with attempted murder? Would have been a lot better, and cheaper (assuming no jail time, job loss, financial ruin) if she just divorced him instead of causing him harm. He was lucky to survive the few days prior to going to the hospital. If it tasted off, and had a weird aroma, why did you continue to drink it day after day?
@@thejadedjester4935 I don't think that would matter. At the very least, she'd get charged with poisoning another person, and from there it could be upgraded to attempted murder. The only thing I could really think of is that the patient decided not to press charges, but something like this which could have ended his life, Idk how she would walk away without a felony charge
@@ninkasa3422 you don't think her only occasional tampering of the coffee could explain why he kept drinking it? The less continual process probably made him think it was just something a bit off with the coffee itself not the person making it, having some normal ones for a few days to lull into expecting coffee as normal and then tasting the difference on the days she would poison it.
@@thejadedjester4935 but iys calculated. It doesn't matter if it's every day or every other day. She had an attempt to slowly kill him and make it look like it's something natural
I coughed super hard once when I was sick, and tore my lung and pneumothoraxed my heart which got squeezed super hard and I instinctively tightened my chest and core as hard as I could and the air dissipated throughout my whole body as little air bubbles and my skin felt like rice crispies when I pushed on it! They brought in every doctor and student they could find to see. I may have saved my heart.
It's a horrible way to die. You basically feel the agony of having your insides burned, turned to soap and liquid. It is slow too. They will get you to the ER and conclude they can do nothing as there's nothing to repair anymore. I'm glad your sister didn't do it and has improved. Life can be tough, but some have it tougher.
Did she make a full recovery? If so, I'm so glad you've all been there for her. I can't even imagine what amount of psychological pain a person has to go through to get to this. I wish you both the best in life!
So fyi for folks: the case this is based on made national news a few weeks back. Basically the same story, but the wife was adding drano to her husband's lemonade, not coffee. Both are doctors. She was arrested and currently it's going through the courts, but yeah I imagine she's gonna get convicted for attempted murder or similar.
He said this case was unrelated to current news. In fact, he starts making these videos a lot earlier than just a few weeks, they take quite some time to make. Usually, his cases are a combination of old records and other things used to educate toxicology students, so they’re based on a couple of things that happened, but no one specific case.
@@YuBeace I'm pretty sure he just says that for legal reasons, and the fact that he doesn't want to associate his videos with real cases. So he just loosely bases them off of real stories, and throws in his own elements.

@@supertaoman12 I mean, it’s possible he started with this one as soon as the recent case got in the news, but usually he combines information from similar cases into one. (Because, sadly, this isn’t an isolated case). Actually? Now that I think about it? He does base videos of single cases sometimes. But in those he also clearly states so. (See also; the video about veterans with lung damage, or the one based on the “Wee for a Wii” incident.)
I will never understand why she didn’t just dump him. You’re gonna slowly poison your husband and potentially get a charge if he figures you out instead of just serving him papers?? I know, I know, “but he would get even more abusive/manipulative”, but at that point she obviously was done enough to poison him. Might as well go for the long term instead of committing a crime.

That's not how that works. It works with venoms and the like because their shape is what makes them dangerous so training antibodies to take them out quickly makes them less dangerous. Building up immunity to drain cleaner would be like building up an immunity to fire--that's just not how it works. And yes I know you were being sarcastic, I just wanted to type this out because I'd never really thought about it before.
"If you're fighting with your wife, don't eat her cooking," was some of the best marriage advice I've ever gotten. Edit: To everyone replying with "JuSt DoN't GeT mArRiEd!!!", your genes are weak and your children will perish.
I think something that was left out is the pain from the actual drain cleaner touching your lips and mouth would be unbearable. Im a plumber and I've had this stuff on me before and it feels like your body is being eat away
Even without the video it's like gee, the doctors can EASILY tell how the ulceration/perforation and damage to his esophagus etc happened- caustic chemicals.
While I don't know the full story, but after the first sip of bad coffee, to the point of spitting it out, I wouldn't continue to drink it. Furthermore, if someone made me bad coffee, I wouldn't want them to make more the next time. Though I am sure she would find other means of poisoning him after that. Hopefully she got convicted for first degree attempted murder.
I remember being around 8-9. My Nan would always make tea for me so she made me one, took one sip and had to pour it out because the detergent hadn't been rinsed properly. It's really bad what happened to him but the level of ignorance it takes to drink something like that for so long without doing anything is staggering.

It had not been apparent to me until this episode that the re-enactment is something that was filmed specifically for this episode. I had always assumed, but not given much thought, that you were cutting together stock footage. I would be very interested to see a video about the evolution of your production of these videos. The last few videos I have seen on this channel have had particularly impressive production, which seems easy to overlook because of how complex the narrative generally is.
How about Cigarette Ashes? I worked for a guy who's friend had died and it had looked suspicious to him on account of the descent he watched happen while his friend and his doctor were perplexed as to what was to blame.

Reminds me of something some woman said to Winston Churchill: "If I were your husband, I'd put poison in your coffee." Winston replied "If you were my wife, I'd drink it."
The psychology of poisoners is fascinating to read into. Lucky this couple never had kids, because kids often become victims too. It's amazing this man survived considering the body horror. On a related note of domestic poisoners bein more common than one would expect - So many of these "cleanses" on social media are also quite caustic, and people are honestly damaging their intestinal lining and then using that as proof of being "clean". The criminal/ cruel element comes in because these mothers (the popularity is higher among females than males) often bring their children in, it's especially popular in the Autism spectrum community.
Very true, and you're right about it being an issue with kids with ASD. In fact, there's a "treatment" advertised for ASD that's pretty much just bleach, so some parents are poisoning their kids without even knowing... Or maybe they do know and they don't care. Thankfully authorities have been cracking down on the sales of it.
I'll have to check in on that literature as i did feel she shouldn't have children to begin with. They both were in a toxic relationship .Both sides behaved horribly to each other without a care. I don't think children should be in a relationship like that.
my thoughts went to parents giving their children "miracle mineral solution" which has bleach in it. they add it to juice. they believe it will kill the parasites in their child's body that make their child autistic (absolutely horrific)
reminds me of the magical 'jilly juice'' that has so much sodium/salt in it that it has caused people to be transported to the hospital and put on IV's
It's always so baffling that people would rather try to kill their spouse instead of just getting a divorce.
drain cleaner is less money than lawyers to be fair
Usually it’s because of the life insurance money. Less hassle than a prenup or alimony
Right. I know that a divorce is expensive but just leave or cheat or something lol. You have to try to kill the person. Damn
She'd have to pay alimony since she's the breadwinner.

That is how you make soap. My grandmother would make soap. She would use pig fat and lye and cook it. She would then let it cool on a cookie sheet and cut it into bars. That soap was primarily for laundry, she would shave off pieces and throw them in the washer. That is all I remember since it was around 70 years ago.

Pouring drain cleaner in someone’s coffee and serving it, is such an unimaginable cruelty.

Yeah. No matter how much of an a-hole your spouse is, just get a divorce. A divorce lawyer is still cheaper than a first class team of lawyers trying desperately to keep your prison sentence below ten years.
@@JuMiKu she was probably afraid he'd take half and sue for alimony
@@JuMiKu Agreed. Though in some states stuff like this happens due to money. Ether the state gives no protections to a low income or no income spouse so they are completely dependent on a wealthier partner who is abusing them, or a state has really harsh alimony laws where the wealthier partner will have to continue to pay for the upkeep of the poorer spouse and is tired of being used and disrespected by a deadbeat. In these rare extreme cases I can kind of understand where the poisoner is coming from, though doing it in such a cruel way and being able to just watch them suffer like that does counter that sympathy. Like I said, sympathetic cases are super rare. Most poisoners are ether just greedy or cruel and vindictive people.
I think states should really reform their divorce laws to have the wealthier spouse only give temporary support to the poorer spouse, and the poorer spouse only getting property they contributed to in some small way, and that all marriages even between financial equals should involve prenuptial agreements to avoid all this mess.

For those that don’t know, drain cleaner can even eat through plumbing pipes if not flushed properly. I’m not sure if I should specify that your body is generally less resistant to most corrosive substances than plumbing pipes…
In the Army during KP I merely inhaled the fumes from a caustic cleaner being used to clean the grill, and that plus a cold I'd caught, got me a couple-three days in the hospital. I looked sicker than I actually was, because the fumes actually made skin sluff off of my tongue and throat.
I'm a plumber, i frequesntly go to calls where customers use draino before they decided to call me, draino is not so bad i get it on my skin often, the drain cleaner that was used in this story was draino, I never had to look at the label to know whats in it you can smell the lye and bleach, often times draino is just bleach and water. sometimes they mix lye in it, this stuf is not so bad, now the stuff that professionals may use is actually an acid, i dont need to use it often but i will. its concentrated 99% sulfuric acid, that will eat through metal pipes and ANY organic material including soaps, hair, grease, and yes flesh. draino itself wont cause any damage to your pipes, but the acid i use will, i can see it start to melt metal if i pour it down a metal drain, which i will do if im using my judgement as a professional, Draino is the weak stuff, the acid is the better stuff and a drain snake is the best one
your actually a fair bit tougher than a copper pipe, except when it comes to heat
thank you so much for that specification, i had NOOO idea!!! :P

As somebody who suffered with a GI perforated ulcer in my mid 20s, the initial pain was the worst I've had, swat was poring down my face, I was chewing on the couch to try to relieve it. The pain started subsiding when the ambulance arrived, and then the same would happen ten minutes later. When the doc saw me the pain had subsided again, and because of my age assumed indigestion and prescribed omeprazole. On the way home, the pain started yet again, as the hours went by, the minutes of relief from the pain decreased until it was constant, and so painful I couldn't even cry; I was becoming tired after 12 hours and parents saw me and rushed me to the hospital. They took an x-ray and found gas in my stomach, at that point they realised I had a perforated ulcer and peritonitis, a pain I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy!
That's insane ouuuuch!!!!! How did they fix it?!!
To add to this. I was a person who had chronic testicular torsions, have had multiple mouth surgeries, also take pantropazole for ulcers.
Out of the three I'm heavily split between ulcers and mouth surgeries. The torsion I got every 6 months was painful as most would suspect but you could get in a position and avoid the pain to an extent. Mouth surgery recovery, I could actually sleep. So it would definitely also for me being that GI damage has the highest suffer rate.

Its easy to say from the outside that its so obvious when its all said and done, but its not so obvious when its happening to you.
As a nurse student I had a lovely beautiful patient who lived from the 1960s through 1985 having drank drain cleaner to commit suicide in the rehab facility attached to our Hospital. Her story was very sad. she had fallen deeply in love with a wonderful man who had taken her away from poverty and they're only child was killed in Vietnam. Sadly it killed the husband he had been an older man and his heart couldn't take it within the year he was gone. She was so bereft and so alone even though his family loved her turned out that she was an orphan and had no family she had come from an orphanage in the 1930s and met him just after the war. She was the epitome of Elegance but that little darling you had to watch her because she dearly wanted to taste food and back then they couldn't save you they couldn't save anything and she had nothing below her vocal cords basically she was fed through a tube in her stomach luckily the drain cleaner didn't make it that far she vomited it up since it was so caustic I think she really drank the solid stuff and so she could only melt Jello and sherbet in her mouth and swallow that because she had to keep her throat lubricated. she could talk with a whisper so beautiful and so elegant and his family just adored her. Us nurses because I did get hired on there after training and getting some of my licensing and then going on for my bigger degree I stayed as they had a good reputation and I loved my patience some of them were who's who of Hollywood and some of them were people like her who had been left behind. Never quite understood his family they would bring boxes of candy they meant it for us nurses and her roommate they knew she couldn't eat any but that little stink pot would sneak a piece and she would always swear she meant to spi it out but it tastes so good and she really thought that it would melt enough to swallow and we'd be in there pounding a piece out of her throat. I was so glad for her when she was able to be released from this Earthly burden on an amazing rain and Thunder filled night unusual for California as she Slipped Away to meet her boys. I would never wish that life on anyone even if you accidentally drank it or someone fed it to you I just cannot imagine someone being horrible and doing that.
It was so odd that all these years later my medical facility is Infamous for the doctor who tried to kill her husband with Drano. He caught her on video putting it in his coffee. She thought she could bamboozle the investigators. I hope she pays as she knew how much it would hurt him physically Not only was she trying to kill him but she tortured him doing it.

I actually recently accidentally dropped toilet bowl cleaner in a mop bucket of bleach and pinesol. Creating chlorine gas, Inhaling the toxic fumes. I'm just lucky I didn't inhale more than I did. I'd like to see emu cover something related to my recent experience. But I also just thought I'd share my experience. I didn't have any burns in my lungs or anything. Just weird/heavy breathing. Definitely a scary experience.
Oooh thats scary 😨
FATHER OF TOXIC GAS AND CHEMICAL WARFARE
HIS DARK CREATION HAS BEEN REVEALED
You definitely got off lucky. At least you didn't mix bleach and ammonia, but get hydrazine (aka the explosive liquid used as fuel for reaction control systems and orbital maneuvering thrusters on spaceships) instead of chloramine!
theres a 1000 ways to die episode on that... one of the first few episodes in the first season. watched it a few weeks ago but got bored with the series
you can just casually make chlorine gas with cleaning supplies?
I cannot imagine the absolute misery and unyielding pain this man probably experienced. Yes, he may have been a completely lazy douche, but he certainly did not deserve this. Plus, he is extremely fortunate that he survived and will potentially suffer from permanent effects. One time, I carefully poured drain cleaner into my bathroom sink due to a sluggish drain and must have only been in the BR for 30-45 seconds (maybe less). Approximately two or three minutes later, I could taste blood in my mouth and ended up with a sore throat lasting for a couple of days. That happened to me due to being exposed to just the fumes for less than one minute! I cannot imagine actually consuming this substance! I learned a highly important lesson when dealing with drain cleaners- open windows, turn on the exhaust fan, and wear a mask and goggles- these products are extremely dangerous! It makes me extremely leery to ever use them again.
Looks like this was based on the case of a california dermatologist who poisoned her husband by putting drano in his lemonade. In this particular case, he wasn't actually a freeloader and also she and her mother abuse their kids. So it's even more evil than what chubbyemu made it out to be. For context, he often changes details around slightly and adds things here and there so a case study is more suited to be in a long-form video, i.e. the hospital segment, which isn't discussed in-depth in any of the news articles I've found, with Dr. Chen (the victim, a radiologist) describing his suffering as simply "serious internal injury."
I think it's quite a smart way to go about generating educational content in a way that respects privacy of the patient, because it takes a good deal more effort to dig up info on the real case than it would be if he just used their real names (he does occasionally, with permission from and in collaboration with the actual patient. See his longer video on RMC, as well as his video on toxic burn pits, they're perhaps the best examples of this).
I had to go ruining his efforts, though, because the prospect of a wife poisoning her husband and possibly getting away with it was too nasty to ignore.
@@lsswappedcessna Ah, I see. I can totally understand why he would "edit" real-life situations to get the educational point across. I am going to look up Dr. Chen's horrific experience. That said, thank you for a very detailed and fascinating explanation. Appreciate it, friend.
He was douchebag but not "lazy"
He tried everything he could. Before the crisis he was a successful man.
@@lsswappedcessnaI think this is a different but similar case based on the description.
@jirachi-wishmaker9242 he wasn't even a douchebag. Let's not forget who was the only being passive-aggressive and continuously poisoning a person and then got mad when the victim said "hey this coffee tastes funny." The woman was the real douchebag here.

This video definitely doesn't have anything to do with the dermatologist poisoning her husband recently
Oh thank you, I didn't realize there was another recent story about spouse poisoning that was definitely unrelated! That's really interesting.
I am hooked on bingeing your videos. The Easter egg of the wife using your merch coffee cup to poison her husband. The script about the couple's story and interactions were pure gold.
And she wasn't charged with attempted murder? Would have been a lot better, and cheaper (assuming no jail time, job loss, financial ruin) if she just divorced him instead of causing him harm. He was lucky to survive the few days prior to going to the hospital. If it tasted off, and had a weird aroma, why did you continue to drink it day after day?
probably because she wouldn't do it every day
Then she’d have to pay alimony…
@@thejadedjester4935 I don't think that would matter. At the very least, she'd get charged with poisoning another person, and from there it could be upgraded to attempted murder. The only thing I could really think of is that the patient decided not to press charges, but something like this which could have ended his life, Idk how she would walk away without a felony charge
@@ninkasa3422 you don't think her only occasional tampering of the coffee could explain why he kept drinking it? The less continual process probably made him think it was just something a bit off with the coffee itself not the person making it, having some normal ones for a few days to lull into expecting coffee as normal and then tasting the difference on the days she would poison it.
@@thejadedjester4935 but iys calculated. It doesn't matter if it's every day or every other day. She had an attempt to slowly kill him and make it look like it's something natural
I coughed super hard once when I was sick, and tore my lung and pneumothoraxed my heart which got squeezed super hard and I instinctively tightened my chest and core as hard as I could and the air dissipated throughout my whole body as little air bubbles and my skin felt like rice crispies when I pushed on it! They brought in every doctor and student they could find to see. I may have saved my heart.

My sister threatened to drink drain cleaner when she was suicidal one night, it was terrifying. Fortunately, she didn’t and is doing much better now
It's a horrible way to die. You basically feel the agony of having your insides burned, turned to soap and liquid. It is slow too. They will get you to the ER and conclude they can do nothing as there's nothing to repair anymore.
I'm glad your sister didn't do it and has improved. Life can be tough, but some have it tougher.
Please give her our best; that's a really tough place to be.
Did she make a full recovery? If so, I'm so glad you've all been there for her. I can't even imagine what amount of psychological pain a person has to go through to get to this. I wish you both the best in life!

So fyi for folks: the case this is based on made national news a few weeks back. Basically the same story, but the wife was adding drano to her husband's lemonade, not coffee. Both are doctors. She was arrested and currently it's going through the courts, but yeah I imagine she's gonna get convicted for attempted murder or similar.
He said this case was unrelated to current news. In fact, he starts making these videos a lot earlier than just a few weeks, they take quite some time to make.
Usually, his cases are a combination of old records and other things used to educate toxicology students, so they’re based on a couple of things that happened, but no one specific case.
@@YuBeace Wait, ALL his cases?! I thought this was just recent!
@@YuBeace I'm pretty sure he just says that for legal reasons, and the fact that he doesn't want to associate his videos with real cases. So he just loosely bases them off of real stories, and throws in his own elements.
@@john_titor1 I don't think all of them are. I remember the news article about the video gamer standing up and dying. Your from the future when CERN is in power though. How can I trust you? 😆
@@supertaoman12 I mean, it’s possible he started with this one as soon as the recent case got in the news, but usually he combines information from similar cases into one. (Because, sadly, this isn’t an isolated case).
Actually? Now that I think about it? He does base videos of single cases sometimes. But in those he also clearly states so. (See also; the video about veterans with lung damage, or the one based on the “Wee for a Wii” incident.)
I will never understand why she didn’t just dump him. You’re gonna slowly poison your husband and potentially get a charge if he figures you out instead of just serving him papers??
I know, I know, “but he would get even more abusive/manipulative”, but at that point she obviously was done enough to poison him. Might as well go for the long term instead of committing a crime.
probably didn't want to pay him alimony since it doesn't seem like he was making money
We're talking about this like it was real, but crimes like this do happen.
Well now she gets to enjoy some time in jail for attempted murder and he gets to sue her for a lot more than alimony.

You can say you make "a full recovery".

Now that's pretty funny right there.
She was feeding him small amounts of drain cleaner to build up his immunity! How sweet.
That's not how that works. It works with venoms and the like because their shape is what makes them dangerous so training antibodies to take them out quickly makes them less dangerous. Building up immunity to drain cleaner would be like building up an immunity to fire--that's just not how it works.
And yes I know you were being sarcastic, I just wanted to type this out because I'd never really thought about it before.
She had misheard that drain cleaner removes germs and bacteria, so thought it would prevent the Covid-19 virus.

@@HobbyOrganist They could assume he was drinking it himself.
While I don't know the full story, but after the first sip of bad coffee, to the point of spitting it out, I wouldn't continue to drink it. Furthermore, if someone made me bad coffee, I wouldn't want them to make more the next time. Though I am sure she would find other means of poisoning him after that. Hopefully she got convicted for first degree attempted murder.
this is why you don't piss your wife off
I remember being around 8-9. My Nan would always make tea for me so she made me one, took one sip and had to pour it out because the detergent hadn't been rinsed properly.
It's really bad what happened to him but the level of ignorance it takes to drink something like that for so long without doing anything is staggering.
Especially the last cup which I assume was more drain cleaner than coffee at that point. This dude was so fucking lazy he couldn’t even bother to taste or check the things he was consuming

It had not been apparent to me until this episode that the re-enactment is something that was filmed specifically for this episode. I had always assumed, but not given much thought, that you were cutting together stock footage. I would be very interested to see a video about the evolution of your production of these videos. The last few videos I have seen on this channel have had particularly impressive production, which seems easy to overlook because of how complex the narrative generally is.

The psychology of poisoners is fascinating to read into. Lucky this couple never had kids, because kids often become victims too. It's amazing this man survived considering the body horror.
On a related note of domestic poisoners bein more common than one would expect - So many of these "cleanses" on social media are also quite caustic, and people are honestly damaging their intestinal lining and then using that as proof of being "clean". The criminal/ cruel element comes in because these mothers (the popularity is higher among females than males) often bring their children in, it's especially popular in the Autism spectrum community.
Very true, and you're right about it being an issue with kids with ASD. In fact, there's a "treatment" advertised for ASD that's pretty much just bleach, so some parents are poisoning their kids without even knowing... Or maybe they do know and they don't care. Thankfully authorities have been cracking down on the sales of it.
I'll have to check in on that literature as i did feel she shouldn't have children to begin with. They both were in a toxic relationship .Both sides behaved horribly to each other without a care. I don't think children should be in a relationship like that.
Hoopla
my thoughts went to parents giving their children "miracle
mineral solution" which has bleach in it. they add it to juice. they believe it will kill the parasites in their child's body that make their child autistic (absolutely horrific)
reminds me of the magical 'jilly juice'' that has so much sodium/salt in it that it has caused people to be transported to the hospital and put on IV's
