But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though

You still do; people in 100 years will be looking back to now much in the same way we look back to the WWI era.
What the hellâŠ. Iâd rather die
They probably did in those days, after the surgery....
@@pambrown8697 yup, after going through agonizing pain for hours with only a lil morphine to stifle the posting pain.
Antibiotics wasn't around the ww1 era such as penicillin it wasn't discovered until 1928 by a scotish scientist Alexander Fleming I belive it was first successfully tried on a patient with a eye infection however that said ww1 forces physicians of the era to research ways to stem the flow of disease and infections they came up with solutions that certainty increased the soldiers survivability if they could reach a dressing station in simple terms the war forced as war does Many changes and practices in the field of medicine at lot quickly then it otherwise would have done
Reminds of a line in Star Trek: Voyage Home. Dr. McCoy thought the medical instruments and operation methods of the 20th century look more like medieval torture.
@@soultraveller5027 only antibiotics and other paincare medicines they had were light painkiller herbs and morphine, both of which did jack shit to soothe the pain

This man: You open up the scalp and use this thing as a drill, which would send you in unimaginable pain.
Comments: God, he's so hot
that is true, until you come to the brain itself. the brain dont have any pain receptors. When you do brain surgery today you are often awake and you cant feel anyone touching your brain really. but when you are awake they can sense which part of your brain they are focusing on. for example if you have trouble speaking they are centered on your lobus frontalis. (I think, its been a couple of years since i did the studies)
Atleast hey were usually loaded with copious amounts of morphine, cocaine, or alcohol đđ»
During WW2, the 18th Saguenay battalion (a French Canadian batallion) scalped the German POW with a tomahawk axe. A scapled German soldier said that it was barely painful.

Okay that is scary that they did brain surgery in the trenches.
Sometimes you have to relieve bathe pressure if the brain is swelling.
@@ThatGirlJD
I mean they do the same today.
My grandpa even woke up while he had a drill in his skull a few years ago after a skiing accident...
But he was still under so much anesthesia that he couldn't remember and they re-dosed him really quick đ
@@i.i.iiii.i.i omfg that's horrific
@@missfortune8553 He didn't feel anything so it's not as bad but the sounds must have been... Interesting
Probably a bit behind them. You can't really do the surgery *in* the trenches, considering the blasts of artillery and all the mud
Neurosurgeons today: WE MUST HAVE HIGH FOCUSED CAMERAS AND STERLIZE EVERYTHING!
This guy: haha, drill go burrrr
"What you do is, open up the scalp.."
Me:
Bro that's a nice moustache, where'd you get it?
I work in a medical school library archives. We have several medical kits for various purposes (surgical, postmortem, etc.) and it's always fun to point out to visitors that the 19th century kits have bone or gutta percha handles and that blood and tissue would be caught in the grooves between the handle and the actual instrument, meaning that they could never really be cleaned or sterilized. Newer kits like this one are cast in one piece with the handles. Thank goodness for modern medicine.
Everyoneâs talking about his mustache. Iâm just impressed that Iâve finally found a reenactor that isnât fat.
@wildflower true
Wait are reenactors fat? But what if they are fat tho?
Who is he? Iâm intrigued
He's human
He's a person
This is like a kid in instagram commenting â@?â
He's a nobel-prize winning physicist
@Rick Wilkinson lmfao best answer
I love how the accent just lends itself to ancient history, literally feels like the dude is the medic lol
WW1 isn't really "ancient history".

Could you show this to battlefield 1 medics ? The amount of times they walk past without reviving is astonishing
They used to drill into people's skulls.
Doctors still regularly drill holes and remove parts of the skull to alleviate brain swelling from head trauma.

Keep'em coming guy's i luv this stuff...knowledge-based
It would be excellent to see a longer breakdown of everything in that box, looks like a lot of care and attention has been put into preserving it!

I had to watch this twice. The first time I wasn't paying atention because I was lost in those beautiful blue eyes.
Thanks, this video was very informational, just what I needed
What I learned from this video:
Some facts about field surgery in World War One.
Women really want early 1900s mustaches to make a comeback. Noted.
everything repeats after 100 years
@Miguel Correa or America going Isolationalist after the 2020's. The dream of any country with even a drop of oil in it.
mustaches were always hot imo đ
He do have a nice mustache
I think some of those were men typing it
Everytime I see videos like these, I always pretend the year's 1914 and we're being taught by someone who's actually from that time.
Great tutorial! I will definetely try this next time I'm in the field!
You have to be mentally strong to be a medic on the battlefield..... I would be so traumatized if I was a medic in warđ
âAll of them are sterilizableâ yea butâŠwere they tho?
@Washington Football Enjoyer
Yes, if possible. Germ theory was widely accepted and they knew sanitization was important to survival.

came for the history, stayed for the stache lol you love to see it, what a king đ
Thanks chap, I really needed this video. My fellow soldier was bleeding out the brain and the medic got shot. Thanks for the help đ

Glad you enjoy it!
While Battlefield 1 medic be like after a player gets set on fire by phosphorus bomb and get bayonetted before his corpse fly 30m away by a mortar shell:

Trepanation relieves skull pressure during head injuries to stop swelling. Its also an off books way to relieve chronic headaches.
The boys when you fall asleep first at a sleepover:
The "prank" be like:
Foolish mistake
A Trephine (sometimes called a Trepan) is used for 'Trepanning' or, cutting a hole in the skull. This was usually done on the battlefield in order to relieve pressure from bleeds on the brain usually due to subarachnoid haemorrhage due to severe concussions on the battlefields. It's also been known for bullets to be removed from the brain but the documentation on the use of this is very limited.
