    I was diagnosed with hypersensitivity pneumonitis when I was in my early 20's. It really was terrifying being misdiagnosed then not fining the diagnosis until I was hospitalized for more than 3 days until a specialist figured it out and was there for 7days until I was well enough yo cone home. Determined it was black mold we didn't know we had from my landlords shoes from the basement.

      Yeah this is really weird, I can't believe it's that rare. I was allergic to everything as a kid and my parents quickly realized it was silly to get me a down comforter. Maybe it's different because I have more of a topical reaction and not respiratory? I dunno, maybe we should just stop plucking birds to stuff our blankets.

    • @jsmith3798

      Well I mean, the state of their medical emergency not withstanding, they’re most likely filled with dread at the prospect of a 20 min ambulance ride, give or take, costing them thousands of dollars. Someone living anywhere near paycheck to paycheck, if they don’t have insurance or if ambulance rides aren’t covered, just an ambulance ride across town can literally wipe them out, and then some..

    • @BritGirlJay
      @BritGirlJay 4 месяца назад +5

      In the US people have to decide if they can afford the ambulance ride or if the insurance will cover it though. I had my partner come home from work to take me for an emergency because no way we'd be able to afford the ambulance AND treatment (and we have decent insurance). In the UK when I fell while pregnant that wasn't a concern - just called the ambo and after they checked me over they took me to A&E.

    Charlie has to be the dumbest rock in a box full of rocks. He didn't want to go back with his brothers to look for gold because of how dangerous it might be. Then as time goes on and the brothers and their friend don't return home and everyone is concerned, he insists they probably found gold and they're continuing to stay there, no need to worry. One year goes by and he insists there's nothing wrong, it's three of them out there, what can go wrong. Meanwhile, when he was out there with his two brothers and the boat capsized, he realized a lot can go wrong, so much so that he chose not to go back. So now that 2 years without them returning home passes it dawns on him maybe we should go look for them. So hard to believe.

    Another classic tale of the curse of gold. Reminds me of The hobbit.

  • @themeantuber
    @themeantuber 4 месяца назад +5

    Here's a theory about Nahanni Valley:
    The two brothers (of the original prospectors,) became so greedy they decided to keep all the gold for themselves and to themselves, without ever intending to sell or in any other way give up any of the gold. They decided to stay in the valley and watch over it to either scare away any potential prospector or outright killing them, if scare tactics failed. The first victim was their friend, thus the skeleton discovered farther apart. When the opportunity arose, they faked their own deaths, killing two random prospectors in the process. Left identifying items and removed their heads, so they could be identified as them. Later, the head removal became their m.o. There have been fewer incidents, probably after one of the brothers died sometime in the 1940s. Of course, this is just speculation, so don't take it too seriously.

    Nope! The RCMP took the easy way out by labeling it as an accident. So the terror kept the valley safe long enough to preserve it until it could be declared a National Park. So Jorgenson must have accidently burned down his cabin and set himself on fire. At least according to the Mounties?

    I remember reading into this, its funny how he jumped straight into native peoples attacking the brothers and decapitating them, the rcmp found absolutely no cut or bludgeon marks on the corpses and skeletal remains of the deceased. Thats why they ruled it death by natural causes. If its an intensional decapitation, its going to leave marks on the vertebrae, unless its done by a surgical expert with specific surgical tools. Sometimes the simple and most likely explanation is the correct one. They most likely just starved after getting hopelessly lost and suffering major paranoia.

    If the first decapitation "wasnt foul play" then I dont understand why the cops were so quick to say the second one wasn't connected. So they think there is more that one thing decapiting people. Probably a tribe nobody sees because they know how to hide and when is best to strike. Since its so remote and all.
