When you look at this level of surgery you have to give credit where it’s due here. This is only the beginning of these types of surgerys. Imagine 30 years from now.
Nothing
@@JesterMasterz Its not something to be read from someone who cant think, don't worry about it
Is it really even effective? Sounds good but how do the tendons fuse and how well do the nerves work? I don't imagine someone doing much with those hands. Wonder how much the recipient looks like the donor. Bet it's fucked up for the donors family.
The main problem in these type of surgeries is the problem of rejection. The immune system is suppressed for life time by using immunosuppressants to prevent the body from attacking donor parts. This affects the kidneys quite badly which could lead to situation of dialysis and kidney transplant!
@@SasyaShyamYella yikes
That's actually so friggin crazy!!!
EscapePlan Skateboarding mind blowing, isn't it?
Attack on titan
@Hector Pacheco how
@@itzshaz0 Surviving is possible when
What a primitive statement for something so brilliant
All thanks to the donor and his family for allowing his body parts to be donated. Such a great generosity!
The donor might have already been brain dead from a severe accident and unable to recover. But still I get your point
@@BGTech1 I don't think that's new info to the OP; nobody is going to just elect to have their face and hands taken.
@@BGTech1 Even then, you have to sign a paper stating that you are willing to donate your body and or parts, so it does have some generosity.
I signed in my will though and told everyone I know that I want to set on a wooden raft then put to a blaze.
@@exostudios8563 in a lot of countries being a donor is opt-out instead of opt-in. I really don't see why you wouldn't want to be a donor. You're dead. Who cares. You might save a life or drastically improve one. You can still be set on fire after your useful bits have been taken
@@exostudios8563 I find comfort in the idea, that after my death my body isn't completel, destroyed or left to rot, but that instead some of my body parts can live on in other human beings, thus making me truly immortal.
I think I held my breath the whole video!! The things surgeons are able to do just blows my mind. I have a very healthy respect for all of them!!
You'd be dead if u held your breath for 6:19
@@mythxv3204 I was speaking metaphorically silly lol! But there are free divers that can hold their breath for longer than that but they are specifically trained to do so. And I did say that I THOUGHT I held my breath for the whole video! 😁🇨🇦
I don't think I could cut the face off a living person. These surgeons definitely have guts!
@@slimislime for enough money I would
Yet here i am scared to go to the dentist 😬
Go it's good for ya
literally me right now, i have to go to my dentist tomorrow, but this makes it slightly less scary
@@gordythecat My private dentist made my dads teeth look amazing again. But I'm in the UK and we have decent dentists and doctors.
It takes balls to go to the dentist though.
Go to a dentist. Hell go there every 6 months for checkup. It will save you major trouble in life. Because you can stop problems before they form. Cavities can be repaired naturally without drilling if they are not deep enough. Only a dentist can see it.
However it’s EXTREMELY important to fine a good dentist. Because bad ones others will see cavities where there are none. There are pigments which can look like cavities but aren’t. Good dentists can differentiate between them. A good dentist prioritizes you having as much of your original tissue as possible.
I almost lost my shit when I saw how they take the skin of the skull and that is an animation. I can’t even imagine how terrifying it must have look. Respect for the doctors.
agreed.
I won’t be the first to fall asleep at sleepovers again 😭
Imagine being the donor’s family member seeing the face of the one they lost. Must be tough for them.
Most of them are actually happy the other guy under the skin got a new face
@@coupa10 not true if you’re in Asia.
@@samuraijackson241 who gives a damn about Asia
@@coupa10 I do care about asia and your point is?
@@mechanikalbull5626 That's what I said! Who?!
Nobody talks about the donor, his family must be suffering a lot too
I literally cannot even to begin to imagine what it would be like to see your husband/dad/brother's face on another man. Honestly, i think the family of the donors are unsung heroes in this situation too for supporting/endorsing his decision to donate, despite the absolute trauma this must have caused them.
Legit like... wow. Praying for them.
@@EthanSalter3 it doesn't look like the same face one it's transplanted. The natural structures underneath make it look pretty different on each person, so he won't be recognizable as the donor. Sometimes there are similar features but you wouldn't think he was the donor if he was just walking down the street.
Also that puffiness goes away and the face gets a lot thinner and much less chubby after some time, so it will start looking natural once he's tightened up his nerves and muscles, and that will make it look even more different from both the donor and his old face. The donor is a hero and that part of him will take on a whole new life :-)
Its like someone is using a Holloween costume of you all over his life! You may not still on this world but you helped someone who's in need even aftee your death
My brother passed a few years ago from brain cancer and someone now has his beautiful blue eyes
This is mind blowing... I can’t believe human beings were able to accomplish this amazing procedure.
Outstanding job! I’ve been reading about this story all day. Truly amazing where the science is taking us.
The 3D printed guides really blew me away! Genius!
When you are the first person to sleep in friends sleepover:
Miraculous work!!! I am in awe of Dr. Rodriguez and his team. Joe's motivation to gain strength and coordination is inspiring. I was astounded to see how well he can move his new hands already. Praying for his continued health!
Thank you for this tutorial! This made the process much more easier to perform
uh
@@MrAaaaazzzzz00009999 dont worry they're arranging a sleepover prank
@@SoupTheIdiot (rookie mistake)
Woah there bud
@@MrAaaaazzzzz00009999 Sorry they are preparing this for teh person who sleeps first
I'm sitting here just in AWE. What amazing strides the medical field has achieved!! I can't believe how much hope this brings to injured people.
pov: fall asleep at the sleepover first
I feel very sad for this young man. Count your blessings people.
POV: you fell asleep first at the sleep over
that's honestly incredible, I applaud the surgeons who did this
And the donor's family
@@Greem877 yes
Its truly a miracle on all levels. The strength and drive of the patient as well as the overall science and skill of the surgeon and his wonderful staff. I'm so blown away. And of course the donor who couldnt have shared a more personal gift... it just floods my heart. I know I said alot but I am really speechless.
What happens when you fall asleep first at a sleepover
Mind blowing how complex this surgery has been. Incredible masterpiece.
I thought it’d be cool to watch the procedure in action, but after seeing this animation, fuck that.
Ew I can't imagine what it would look like this irl
how would be seeing a faceless person cool
@@SillyFunnyDummy lol
I don't think I would be able to do this. I mean, amputating someone's hand is one thing. It' not pretty but it's normal and common.
But carefully cutting off their face including bones? Seeing that would cause me to faint instantly. These surgeons are amazing the things they can do... And most importantly, they do it professionally and it works. I admire them.
I'd love the idea of helping people, just not into dealing with blood and guts
Ah, so this is what my friends did when I fell asleep at the sleepover.
Joe is amazingly brave. I don’t know if I would let them do this operation on me ... I wish him all the best and mostly a normal and good life.
The amount of preciseness puts my anxiety at its peak!
Can you imagine you F this up? YOU’RE DONE! 😬
funky town...
Man the movie *FaceOff* was such a good movie they made it into a real thing
The number of prefab cutting guides is crazy. 3D printing is really helping all over the place
This gave me so much anxiety, i could Never Imagine how much work went into the operation omg
when you fall asleep first at the sleepover (I was pranked)
Modern medicine is incredible, to think people can completely replace someone's face and hands and they still work. Not even a full century ago, this would be absolutely impossible. You could get absolutely destroyed in some of the most horrendous ways, be inches from death and still be healed to a state of life that is not only survivable but to an extent normal. Hats of to you medical professionals
Absolutely incredible! What a procedure. Much respect to the donor, patient, and medical team. Hope for best recovery
Eduardo Rodriguez has balls of steel.
POV:you fell asleep at the sleepover first
I hope they keep us updated on his recovery.
when you fall asleep first at the sleep over
I wish I could find doctors as good as these to help make my life normal
The fact that the procedure was so intellectually complex just shows how complicated our bodies are.
This is just mind blowing!! I’m in awe!!
Wow! This Dr and his entire team are absolutely incredible!!!
5:30 that is the most insane part to me. restoring all the veins. superficial veins!
Amazing. Congrats to all involved on the procedures. It is almost a sci fi real movie.
I bet the medical team wishes it was this easy. There's always unexpected issues to overcome. It blows my mind how far medicine has come!
It's amazing to see how far we've come.
Why you offend me I dont like star wars so you offend!
That moment when you realize that face transplant is a HUNDRED MILLION TIMES MORE COMPLICATED than you ever imagined...
This 3D animation is amazing
Una locura, no solo el trabajo en equipo al momento de la cirugia, si no el trabajo previo y posterior. Increible
real respect for the doctors and nurses who have ace stomachs for this.
Imagine your son or other relative donation their face and hands to a surgery, and then seeing a stranger with that relatives face on them. it's truly amazing this urgery but it must cause a little strange for the donor family.
Not to mention the fact that you'll wake up every day with a face that isn't yours, still better than deformed I guess. Fantastic truly.
Such an huge responsibility for the doctor during this operation
This is simply amazing.
I have no clue how I would do this in real life. Props to those that actually know how to.
OMG! THIS IS SO AMAZING!
Here you see why surgeons and docs deserve every single bit of money they receive. For a surgeon to cut someone like this he needs to know EVERY SINGLE nerve muscle veins and details in the bone in that area.
Just brilliant and amazing! Thank you for sharing.
And I get frustrated at the process of organizing my closet. Hats off to these brilliant and diligent professionals.
Magnifique ! Je n’ose imaginer la complexité et le travail et toutes c risques » que toute l’équipe doit gérer au fur et à mesure ! Bravo à vous
If you go to Mexico, they'll play Funkytown when doing this surgery.
😅
Salute to those who did this high class tough surgery
It is incredibly challenging work and professionalism of the highest level. I admire.
Wow unbelievable!! Such a great job
This video is actually scarrier than most of the horror movies out there..
This is just some jaw-droppingly precise, intricate work.
Holy f.
Imagine be in a surgery and listen the doctor listening this
Imagine waking up during the face part.
I’m not nearly smart enough to understand what’s going on in this video. So much respect to the doctors and surgeons involved!!!!!!
The doctors did a really great job
This happened to me once
(I’m never falling asleep first at the sleepover again)
Respect to the doctors and also to the patient
That's gotta take a lot of immunosuppression to maintain, very impressive to pull off a surgery like that
This video deserve millions of views.
This is some science fiction stuff right here. Amazing.
Hats off to Dr Rodriguez and team from India 🙏
This is amazing and unbelievable truly.
Not religious, but God bless you. Eduardo, you and your transplant team are awesome. The transplant is aesthetically up there with Cameron Underwood, Mitch Hunter, Patrick Hardison, Richard Norris. and Andy Sandness.
Imagine being able to feel all of this.
I’m so impressed, science and surgeons are wonderfuk
Beyond words so amazing to see this is possible now a days
hate to see the final bill of that . wow
Prob covered because of the media coverage.
department of defense probably covered it for veteran research
That probably around 400k dollars ☺️
This is so impressive
Really makes you appreciate your current life
I'm so happy that I didn't watch the original video, but I watched a summary of it. No words can describe the horror I felt when I listened to it.
These people are real life wizards. Without doctors, humanity would still be rolling around in the mud. Incredible.
POV: You are the first one to fall asleep during a sleepover with your friends
Just absolutely incredible
It’s insane that we can just do this. Like this would’ve been impossible years ago
thank you so much now i can try this at home!!!!!
Thank you for the tutorial
POV: you were the first to fall asleep at the sleepover
Truly amazing x
Extraordinary work of the surgeons 👏 . How did his burns happen?
This is kinda like the faceoff movie. This level of surgery is unbelievable. This is the true meaning of "mask off". . . Imagine looking in the mirror and seeing yourself with it off🤔🤯😳
Surgeon: There's nothing to worry about Mr. Smith -- I watched a video about this procedure on CZcams.
this is bloody amazing thing i ever seen. very messy and high risk but its amazing.
POV that one homie that went to bed first at the sleepover. 😂
W tutorial btw
Just AMAZING!
Amazing!
Mind = blown
