    The stethoscope is the single most widely used medical instrument in the world. But where did the idea come from? In the seventh installment of our ‘Moments of Vision’ series, Jessica Oreck shares the modest origins of this incredibly useful item.

    the stethoscope was invented because a man respected a women and her body. hats off for you, honorable gentleman!

    Wait, so the stethoscope was invented because a doctor was shy of nuzzling his cheek into someone's chest, not out of any functionality necessity?

      I'm sure, but that's not why it was invented. At least not according to TED-Ed.

    • @matthewk320
      @matthewk320 Před 7 lety +9

      CybeargPlays you asked for function. we use till today because you can hear better ...

    • @CybeargPlays
      @CybeargPlays Před 7 lety +75

      No, I meant that I was surprised that it wasn't invented because someone needed it for a functional reason -- it was invented because a doctor didn't want to press his ear against a woman's chest. If he had been less squeamish about getting boobs in his face, the stethoscope may not have been invented for years, or decades. That was my point.

    Whoever is the one drawing, cutting out and then putting together all these different things with just some paper, tape and glue is absolutely incredible at what they do. I'm hypnotized by what they're doing more than the actual story so I have to go back and rewatch the video. But I don't mind, I love watching TedEd videos. I can't get enough so I always end up binge watching their videos. Thank you TedEd for all of the knowledge that you've brought us over the years.

    While watching the thing being made is quite exciting, I think there's need to make some room for pictures of things being spoken about by the narrator. It can clearly be seen from dozens of template comments under each of these videos that something needs to be changed in order for audience to digest information properly. After all, the main goal of ted-ED vids is to spread knowledge of facts, not to give aesthetic pleasure.

    As interesting as the stories may be, I always find it rather difficult to follow the narration, as the pictures are way too distracting. In my opinion, the purpose of a video should be to convey one single subject via both narration and pictures at the same time. But with this video series, you basically show us how to craft certain object and tell us the story behind them. No wonder there are always a lot of people in the comments telling you that they need to watch the video twice.
