i love that this video comes out directly after I went through 2x 8hour sessions for my sleeve haha
Nice 😌
You guys are pumping out videos like there is no tomorrow
Whenever you feel down, just remember your immune system is always there for you
Yeah,but the video made it sound like it is in an abusive and one sided relation of the person has tattoos on himself.
WHEN YOU STUB YOUR TOE AND IT HURTS YOU KNOW
Except when you have Autoimmune
Tell that to the people with an autoimmune disease or allergies.
Cancer: alow me to introduce myself
Even if you're not kind to your body, your body will still try its best to protect you. That's a true friend.
Oh nooo a Pokemon used confusion. The immune system attacked it self in it confusion.
The human fainted
The body will try it's best to make sure it survives. It doesn't give a shit about you. Abusive relationship if you ask me.
It probably just wants to keep itself alive enough to reproduce. Honestly i don't know how we only have one conscience when there are a lot of cells clumped together
If we’d like to get philosophical, there is no real distinction between “us” and our bodies. We are a system of interlocking processes but people tend to think that “they” are just something in the head behind the eyes. If you’re curious to expand on this thought process I’d recommend looking at some of Alan Watts’ lectures
Your body is you
Why do you think everything is separated?
Even your pile of sh*t is part of you too
I know this might sound stupid, but seriously, having been exposed to this channel and watched a lot about immune system, I started to love myself more and more and appreciate my body like never before as I’ve been suffering from depression and nothing could make me motivated. Yet these mere educational scientific videos can. Those tiny cells fighting for me do make me feel bad about my past suicidal thoughts. No joke
Dude I feel you 😭
Not stupid.
And always pray because God can also give you hope
Besides your immune system you yourself are awesome! Focus on all your good qualities, the fun parts about yourself and about all the beauty you have in your life, because there is a lot of it. Kill negative thoughts as much as possible
And there’s a God who designed all this to the T and gave each thing a purpose in including you
As someone who suffered from suicidal thoughts/ depression I can say it makes you feel so crazy that you could think about ending your own life when they’re are literally millions of individual cells working together to keep you alive every single day! Videos like this make me appreciate my life so much more
Amen
Stop bad habits in life, and thinks will improve by themselves slowly. It takes time.
@@cscs9192 "Stop bad habits in life"? Tell me you're privileged without telling me you're privileged. You don't know the first thing about other people's lives, so don't speak. Luckily for you, you clearly have no idea what it's like to have your life ruined.
@@user-iw3zj5df8c so they need to stop talking about their problems when you know it will bring criticism of others
@@MarsudiBengkel Huh? Your comment is making no sense to me - did you mean to tag someone else?
My old science teacher got a tattoo of a macrophage, knowing that her own macrophages would forever be eating its particles. Christie, wherever you are, you were quite the character.
This comment made my day. I felt it man.
just imagined the kurzgesagt narrator saying "This science teacher has quite the thing for cannibalism."
But frankly that’s actually kind of metal.
I can hear her correcting you, saying "It's Ms. Christie!!!!"
@@msophos my first thought exactly
I love how even if they can't win the battle, they still spend the rest of their lives holding the ink in place
The very loyal ones
Why am I getting emotional over immune cells
@@anomienormie8126because biologically speaking, they're the only ones who want you to survive
@@anomienormie8126because life is beautiful even at a cellular level
@@anomienormie8126 Because people always anthropomorphise common things that occur in our bodies, like there would be a choice involved.
Another reason to think twice about getting a tattoo is three letters M R I. I have a full sleeve and two smaller tattoos. The sleeve was done in 2004 and the other two smaller ones in the late 1980's. In 2017 I had my first MRI due to a life-threatening infection that was migrating to my brain. The MRI tech told me not to move so although all of my tattoos were getting hot, I didn't move or say anything. After my emergency surgery which I had a few days later, I notice my arm started killing me. I had gotten third degree burns on all of my tattoos, my sleeve being the most damage. That is how I found out that the tattoo inks that were used contained heavy metals and the MRI machine tried to remove those metals from my body. My arm was swollen, inflamed and small lumps appeared. It was agony. I was treated with antibiotics and steroids for a month. To this day you can see the burn scars on that arm and it is now larger and slightly deformed compared to my right arm. I had to go back to the emergency room twice because the pain, inflammation and small lumps came back and that was in 2019 and 2021. I was treated with antibiotics and steroids again. I can't imagine what would have happened to me if my tattoo was a chest one. Be warned and make sure you know what inks are being used. You never know if you will need an MRI in the future.
That's horrible ! Hope you feel better know 😔💕
@@PasMille Thank you. Whenever I'm out I try to share my story to let people know to be careful. My tattoos may have been done a long time ago, but some places still use that type of ink. One woman who had recently gotten a tattoo had to have an MRI and said when her neck tattoo started feeling hot, she screamed and they stopped right away. Thank goodness.
Thank you for sharing! And I hope you’re ok!
Had multiple MRIs done, and they only asked if the tattoos were done in the past 6 months.
So I’m not sure if there is not enough knowledge on their part either on the subject, or if both the technology and inks are different now.
Luckily I didn’t have any of this symptoms happening, I’m also not heavily tattooed.
But how..? I'm covered on tattoos, never had a problem. Healthy at a 100% levels, I do sports, healthy food, hope tattoos don't kill me by now 😂
@@aleSoareDon't bank on the past 6 months thing. In the future one should speak to their tattoo artist and read the labels of the inks to make sure before you get one. They all don't get their inks from the same supplier. When I speak to the MRI and CAT technicians (they sometimes rotate between the two departments), doctors and nurses at my hospital they all say the same things. That they learn about it but have never met someone that it actually happened to until they met me. They also never asked patients if they were tattooed beforehand but will start and will ask the patients if they are experiencing any warm areas during the MRI scans. Believe me when I tell you I am so happy to know that this didn't happen to you.❤❤❤❤
As a tattoo artist who used to think i’ll work in STEM as an adult this is surely one of my fav kurzgesagt video! Thank you for making this one!
Why not go into a STEM field? Found passion in tattooing or sone other unfortunate circumstance? If the latter: you can still do it! I study for a BsC degree with a path to med school after years of drug addiction.
WHY?:
Kicked it off cold turkey, opioids. Still use sometimes, but manage to keep it under wraps.
Got hooked because of some not-so-appropriate oxycodone prescribing(3+ months of 37.5-80mg oxy/day with the 1st month being an IV drip, 2nd month and one week IM injections and then 20mg oxycontin once in the morning, once at night with 4x10mg oxynorm pills during the day. Then they suddenly dropped me to 2x5mg oxynorm a day, turned to buprenorphine to ease the extreme withdrawals. This felt like a walk in the park compared to the oxy wds.)
Edit: dosage correction
And million of sell death
How are you a tattoo artist of you aren't an adult?
Stop killing cells. Cells lives matter!. CLM!!..
@@MrZombieTurds did you even read

I cant believe an animated video is convincing me not to get a tattoo when my family has repeatedly failed to 😂
Bro i am totally convinced of not having a tattoo i have watched a similar video which showed that most of the tattoos ink are toxic and harmful.
Why just put a tattoo it's just for showing off except if u are a gang member or tribal human there is no need
@@tusharkhanger8558literally everything you put on your body is for showing off.
waow a video of what happens during and after getting a tattoo convinced you to not get it rather than people just simply telling you not to? How surprising!
@@tusharkhanger8558I believe, tribal people didn't start with tattoos, but breakdown of connections
Try inkbox, instesd.less permanent for the look
@@tusharkhanger8558it’s not just for showing off for everyone. I have had a lot of trauma in my life the last few years. Some beauty and good has come from it. When I have those hard days a reminder of the beauty and good helps keep me from spiraling. Mine represents my family and how even when you feel like you’re in a void they’re there. It also represents those that I have lost. Many times when stressed I will trace the lines of it and it calms me.
I completely understand why people don’t want one and not understanding those that do. But making a generalization like that is ignorant.
5:00 "They vacuum up all the particles they can fit into their bodies and surround the larger ones trapping them in the only prison they can build: themselves" 🥺🥺🥺
I dont have a tattoo but the effects still give me chills
Ain’t worth it to get once earrings are enough
This needs a follow up video about scars - what they do to your skin, what cells are involved and why they can stay around for years or your entire life.
or specifically, scarification
Emotional Scars too
I'm pretty sure scars are just the cells that can't be replaced. They're a result of your dermis being destroyed in that area. The way they were earned determines if it's raised or lowered. Basically, if you have a wound like a cut it will likely protrude. If it's something like an infection scar or from bulging skin it will shrink into the body.
It'd be like your skin trying to stitch itself back together by contracting or building tissue around the area that's missing.
That would be an interesting idea that could also cover how getting stitches would affect a wounded area
that's a great idea.
scars leave me very fascinated,
i once remember i got my face scratched by one of my Grandparent's old dog when i was just a lil' todd, and the mark on my face has been there ever since teenhood.
I like how kurzgesagt always scares us about everything and then calms us down
HAHAHAHAHAH, Exactly!!
True
Knowledge is indeed scary
I'm not calm now xD
Well I don't think Kurzgesagt wants to get sued for instigating the public and be the cause of existential crisis without fixing the crisis itself
This video is more than informative, it has a deep meaning with all the visuals and the couples appearing with their significant other(s), and at the end a tattoo of your immune system ❤
Love these videos, they are so well-crafted, well-explained, and beautiful!
As a tattoo artist this is fantastic information, I might make it a requirement for new clients to watch it right before the tattoo.
I have a feeling that would deter some potential costumers. Perhaps if you could guarantee you only use harmless inks, although I'm not sure what exists currently as I remember hearing all of them are potentially problematic.
*EDIT:* it seems some people thought I was suggesting he shouldn't inform potential customers of the possible dangers of tattoos. That wasn't the case, and I personally don't consider having tattoos. I was just pointing out I felt the video would be deterring to customers, in case he only saw the cool parts about it being a person with great interest in tattooing. It seems from his later replies he is aware of that.
u gonna get less clients then...
My last tattoo artist had a poster up in her corner with a bunch of the basics behind what a tattoo is and I think it's a great idea! It's a great way to deter people who haven't researched the process ahead of time/great conversation for those of us who did! I chatted with her for like an hour in the chair about different dyes and why they last longer than others etc.
Misuse of a comma.
@@TLguitar that’s fine with me, I’d rather them be aware than be shady.
I love how your immune system can be in a literal war while you're doing almost about just anything (and it does a good job at defending you)
i mean , our immune systeme is always at war in one place or the other , but its just a war in the borders XD
Not according to Phizer, you need 6 boosters to keep immunity to the coors virus, and even then natural immunity doesn't exist.
They said so to congress
My immune system is the great wall of china if u think about it
Our immune system kills about 6 cells a day that could have turned in to cancer!!
Yeh, its nuts. And then you get sick for a week and be upset with your immune system for failing you. And it just stares back with puppy eyes knowing how hard it tries and how successful it usually is.
I finally found this channel again! Immediately subscribed!!!
Sending this to all parents whose kids will eventually want tattoos.
My mother is a dermatologist and told me about tattoos and how the body protects itself from the ink, super cool to see it animated and explained!
Show her this video and see what she thinks
She would likely enjoy this video :)
is she against tatttoo's?
I would say apart from Informational clips, science (study of a Process), daily current affairs, entertainment, jokes, mainstream narratives, propaganda, lies, etcetera if you're interested in Theology, Purpose of Life, Reason for Creation/ Existence should have a look at this -
First thing which should be considered is that THERE has to be one Absolute Truth/ Objective Reality (100%)
[regardless of what different scientists, ph.ds, doctors, philosophers, societies, religions, cultures, individuals, etcetera believe].
The rest could be categorised as either -
1.) Some Truth with some Falsehood mixed in it (no matter in what ratio/ percentage it is in) or
2.) Complete Falsehood/ Delusion (100% Wrong).
Its something like this -
[If Analogy is to be used our Body is like a Hardware of the Computer and our Soul is like a Software. Just as Computer's Hardware is Useless without a Software, similarly, a Body is also Useless /Lifeless without a Soul.]
We go through 5 Phases in our Life :-
1. The Realm (outside of this material Universe) where we took an oath & chose to be granted free will and want to be get Tested (The Testimony of believing in Only One God by our soul),
2. In our mother's womb (9 months) - The soul is breathed into the body, which gets created from a single molecule through a unique DNA🧬 (An Instruction Manual/ A Program/ Code) fashioned/ programmed by Creator. And, as the soul enters a body that's from where our consciousness and conscience comes (it happens with a lightning speed i.e. in a fraction of a second which Scientists/ Doctors couldn't able to capture it),
3. On Earth 🌎 (On an average of about 60-70 years)
[Commencement of Test with the Development of Conscience],
4. In the Grave (The time frame from our death till the Day of Judgment/ Resurrection) &
5. In Paradise or Hell (Eternal Life).
All are Temporary except after the Resurrection. So, the consciousness in brain 🧠 gets activated when soul enters the body & through soul the conscience (sense of right and wrong) of heart gets activated (including feelings like joy, peace, pain, anger, etc.).

Definitely the first time I've heard skin be called a conveyor of death, but at the same time that makes so much sense
I think of skin as human armor, the first and only (physical) defense for every other part of you.
@@user-mc6dg6qe8lpersonally, i’d consider human armor to be human armor and not skin
@@ZerglingLover
What are _you_ referencing?
@@ivoryas1696
…human armour
Well, using the same logic as Kurzgesagt did, you could also call human existence as a conveyor belt of death.
The fact that they loose the war but still protect the ink and you is insane true love right there
I guess you will also call an employee that shows up every day to work as love too.
They're not doing it to protect the ink, they're doing it to protect your body from the ink by using themselves as a barrier to lock it in place
Its not love its just there job
@@Wisdom.PhoenixThat comparison was stupid.

This is so informative! It feels like I’m watching “Cells at Work” I love that series😍
I learned this the hard way when I had to have 2 lymph nodes removed
Knowing that my body is like a whole colony of cells doing their part makes me feel a lot better and motivates me to take good care for myself.
Fr neurons gotta do their share
Don't forget too that you've got colonies upon colonies, trillions upon trillions, of living "germs" (yeasts, bacteria, and non-living things like viruses) also fucking, shitting, and having a grand ol' time all over you.
We're disgusting.
Thats your brain convincing your brain to stay healthy
Just think of how simple a change from soda to water can be for your body. It craves water, but we give it soda, If you want to show at least some decent form of love to your body do the switch.
@@eduardoribeiroucv9630wh- what?
I always wondered how the ink managed to stay in place if the skin was constantly getting replaced, and while this makes a lot of sense at the same time it's stranger than anything I would've imagined. The immune system is a beautiful thing.
actually it is so mesmerisingly beautiful, nothing compares. It has in-store a cure for a disease that isnt even discovered yet, i mean it mutates itself and adapts to bacteria it hasn't even found, not even by our ancestors. In this sense, our immune system is our guardian angel in the most literal meaning
I mean they explained it, new ones replace them and catch the ink
@@DeletedDevilDeletedAngel well not quite, the ink isn't or among the skin cells getting replaced, it's beneath them, and those immune cells stick around for longer than the skin cells.
It's not even a bit beautiful when it doesn't work properly
@@lsedge7280 probably explains the laser thing
Whaou ! Amazing video ! Interesting, clear, funny and the illustrations and the motion design are awesome ! Great job !

There is no WAY Kurzgesagt timed this upload to be the WEEK I’m getting my first tattoo. 💀
lmaooo 😭😭😭😂
Lmao
Shit same here
SAME I got mine four days ago!
Well, are you still getting it? :)
As a doctor watching this and knowing all the process already, im still amazed by the animation and the details in it from the skin layers, to the morphology of cells and the whole process omg its… unbelievable
they are incredible!
@@ZeroTwo__02 they are
Absolutely gorgeous animations! No doubt ❤
animators are doing an excellent job here, it feels like it's only getting better
Come on be honest you didn't know it being a doctor
That's why you watch it
So I had an accident about 2.5 years ago and got replaced the metal plate recently. Since I first saw the scar I knew I would get a tattoo to cover it, when the metal is gone and the scar tissue has grown healthy. The scar got even longer since the accident because I needed to have a more complicated treatment done. It's on my right forearm and since it's on the side next to my body I literally have to see it hundred times a day.
I wish I hadn't seen this video before I'll have the tattoing done. Now I can only hope I'll forget this knowledge until the wound is healed and finally ready to become some wonderful piece of art.
I got a tattoo last year, I didn’t know that turns out tattoos do so much to the body. I don’t regret it though, I love my tattoo a lot and I might get another one
Lol damn you don't care but that's okay.. also you know that the majority of ink causes cancer. Also red ink is by and large not tolerated by most people. Also their is no governing body that monitors and makes sure that the ink being used by any tattoo artist contains more or less bad chemicals than other ink. Since I was a nurse and saw people with a lot of abdominal tattoos have more polyps and Colon cancer than others I will never get a tattoo. We can see the tattoo from inside your colon that is how deep the ink goes meaning you are literally seeping ink into blood vessels, Organs and other vital parts of your body. Yeah I'm good, but more power to you honestly.
Why?

Same😢
same here...my tattoo was the reason I was interessted in this video, now I feel guilty ^^
it’s a winning war everyday you live for them! and it’s a won war when they get to retire after you live a long happy life due to their hard work :)
dont worry, your immune cells are born every second. there will always be immune cells fighting for your health
me too but at the same time i’m so much more grateful for my body and immune system bc they are both trying their hardest to keep me alive! not even themselves, it’s so sweet tbh. i look at it as, our bodies loving us no matter our “mistakes”(mistakes being tattoos)
Thank you SO MUCH for this comprehensive yet entertaining explanation 🔥
Videos like these makes me appreciate more of my body.
I was thinking about getting a tattoo but now I'm afraid to disappoint my immune system...
that's the point of the video. Good sheeple.
@@sages101 Bro, it's not 1920. Tattoos aren't some sign of rebellion anymore. They're more mainstream than ever.
@Agent_Chieftain who's trying to be rebellious? If someone gets a tattoo, it's because they like the artwork. Don't be like the vegans, telling everyone that you don't have a tattoo. No one cares.
Everyone you know is disappointed go get that tattoo
Same. I’m getting Henna only. And using waterproof eyeshadow to make it colorful. And waterproof eyeliner to make the brown henna into black. So I’m just coloring the top of my skin and not going any deeper into my skin. Plus it’s much more safe. Now that I know what tattoos do to a body. I’m still going to say to anyone if they ask me the question if they should get tattoos, I’m sending them this video. And then say what I’d do after they watch the video. Or, get fake tattoos that can are waterproof and fade away after 3 weeks.
I have no tattoos, always thought of getting one but I'm still not committed enough, I don't know if this video helped my decision into getting one 😅

Very good decision to NOT get tattoo! I applaud you! I'm so happy to NOT have tattoo and NEVER will get one. Tattoo is NOT cool and is NOT beautiful. It is disgusting and ugly.
It’s a ver personal decision. I find the tattoo machine very traumatic for the skin (not in an emotional level, mind you), so that’s why my tattoos are made with the hand poked technic. It’s just one needle handled by the artist themselves, kinda like they’re drawing with dots. It’s doesn’t hurt at all, and they heal faster. But then again, you have to be sure about what you’re getting tattooed. If you’re not 100% sure, then leave it be!

i just sat for a 7 hour session and i have to go back to get it finished in a few weeks. we took a break around hour 6 and the last hour was painful, before the break it wasn't bad at all. this explained so much! next time not taking a break until it's done.
Thanks for this beautiful and full of knowledge animation
The idea that my immune system will always have my back even if no one else does, does kinds make me feel a tad bit happy.
I mean of course they do, they *are* you. You are just the product of trillions of cells working in tandem.
Yes!!
They can also kill you without batting an eye. Autoimmune diseases and sensitivity.
@Wisdom.Phoenix yeah but typically they are horribly confused. Or carrying out corrupted orders.
Doesn't change the fact they're killing you.
This is super-interesting. My wife has an autoimmune condition. She has attempted tattoos twice, and neither of them lasted more than six months. She went back to the artist for a third attempt, and he apologetically told her that there was nothing he could do for her which would be more permanent that what he'd already done. He offered a refund, but my wife noted that he'd done his part, and wasn't responsible for her internal biology.
So, I read that right?
Autoimmune and insisting three (3) times to get tattooed?
Why did you marry her if she is that stoopid, I don't get it.
@@a.k.3659dumb comment. Maybe his wife has other positives, that outweigh trying a tattoo a few times?
That's really interesting, I was wondering about people with autoimmune disease while watching the video! Good luck to your wife !

well this explains so so so much. My body has always been horrible at excepting ink. I also hardly ever get sick. I now realize that my immune system is so robust that it is literally fading my tattoos out at very quick lvls.
No, you just go to shitty tattoo artists.
@TheRagefires 🤣I wish that was the case. My wife and I got matching one's for our anniversary. a yr later and mine is faded, and her's is still perfect from the day we got them . Done the same day by the same artist back to back.
Incredible animation ngl yall keep it simple but it’s also very detailed
So basically the most convincing reason for me to not get a tattoo is not my Asian parents stopping me, but I don't want to burden my immune system further, and this is what matters 😃 thankful for the video, Kurzgesagt
What have you thought would happen?
What does tattoo have to do with asians?another cringey asian joke trying to be funny but ends making asians look nerdy, strict and conservative stereotype. Bet you didn't know Kākau hawaiian tattoo was practiced in south china and south east asia in ancient time. Most pacific island tribal tattoo were present in china and indo china before the arrival of Buddhism. The siberian people ink their face too. Your stupid jokes aren't funny and uneducated
Right like why couldn’t I see this video 5 years ago 😢 now I’m getting my tattoos removed and I thought that was good turns out I’m just torturing my body even more smh
I kinda like questioning everything i see, so:
From the Study from the university of alabama, what i've read is:
Yes, tattooes are stress for your immune system.
But apparently the opposite happens if you got many and your immune system gets stronger
You kinda also have very tattoed people in cultures, in which tattooeing is part of their identity.
And you see people getting even to the age of 92 or higher
As a tattoo myself, I was really impressed with how much research you did.

Artist? Or assassin? The ink is toxic to the body. So you are poisoning people.
Because this channel has a team of scientists they just don’t make up bs. They’re more knowledgeable about skin than you an artist.

I had absolutely NO idea how tattoos and the immune system worked together.
I really like your videos!
And I still don’t
I knew it vaguely, my understanding was that its living skin cells holding it not macrophages. As in, this vid corrected me,
they don’t work together, the immune system is working against tattoos the only way they know how.
@@Worthitingold757??????????
They don't "work together" the immune system is against tattoos!

I'm in the process of getting my first tattoo removed and this makes me so sad :( I am even more filled with regrets now
I was recently diagnosed with lupus, a pretty harmless version, that, at least for now, only affects my skin, but has a small chance to get worse. I would love a video about autoimmune diseases like lupus and why the immune system would turn against it's human.
its because the cell are defective and are misrecognizing the normal cells a pathogen
Can I ask you how you got tested and narrowed it down to lupus? I have a mystery illness/disorder that seems auto immune and most of the symptoms, but apparently my blood work so far says it isn’t autoimmune…..but anyways, I was curious how many steps it took to finally get a diagnosis
"Why the immune system would turn against its human" is pretty simple when you remember your body is really a collective of cells. What makes them behave as a collective is genes and hormones (which are controlled by genes). Therefore if you have an autoimmune disease like Lupus, T1 Diabetes, Wegener's granulomatosis etc. it is a result of cells that are no longer recognized as part of the collective and are being attacked. There are >9000 reasons why this could happen so that is why there are so many different autoimmune diseases. In T1D it's islet cells in the pancreas that get attacked. In Lupus it's cells all over the body but skin, joints, and kidney cells are commonly the focus.
@@extragoogleaccount6061on average it takes like 7 years to be diagnosed. There’s certain criteria and you have to have over ten points in bloodwork markers + other symptoms. Most patients have a positive ANA. There’s a debate about whether ANA negative lupus exists or if it’s just a “lupus like disease” but the ANA is just the beginning, anti-dsdna, anti-am,anti ssa/ssb, complement tests etc. can help narrow down a lupus diagnosis.

Internal horrors are far worser than cosmic horrors. At least to witness any existential crisis in galactic level, it would take minimally in a span of few million hundred years.
*Meanwhile,* focusing more to precautions about your own health which is basically you, that you live for some couple of decades is good ( AWARE TO OTHERS ❤ )

Your immune system will always protect you, but it shouldn't deter you from enjoying the body that you have while you have it in this short life. You just have to make sure the person you go to for said tattoo cares about safety as much as you do and dont skip on aftercare once the procedure is done 😊
@@langlyboops3591 'enjoying the body' by scarring it... you don't need to paint yourself like a billboard to feel good about your body. Try gym.
I use to want one when I was younger; even had an idea drawn out. My wife (gf at the time) wanted a tattoo as well but it just never happened. Thirty-two years later and I lost interest in getting one but my wife still wants to get a little one and my younger child who is turning 18 wants one to represent her family. I am going to have them watch this video just to make sure they understand what's going on as this is definitely something you want to be sure about. I've seen some ragertful people in my time; I'd prefer not to be married to one as I have at least 20 more years to hear about it.

As a tattooed person this is fascinating and depressing at the same time (mostly because this has taught me why tattoo fading is basically inevitable)
Get it retouched. Fixed it.
I didn’t know tattoos fade! How long do they generally last?
@@17moonlily Pretty much depends on the person and their skin, but, for some people, it can take 5 years, for some 10, for some even more
But you can try, at the summer time when it's 40C Temperature, if you don't use any creams, sun will burn you so hard, and well destroy tattoo pretty much.
@@17moonlilythe tattoo as a whole won’t completely disappear! rather, fading is just when the shapes and colours can lose definition over time. For example, ink may look greyer, some colours may be less vibrant/change slightly, and lines that were once fine and crisp can look a little blurry.
Edit: this fading may be accelerated by improper care e.g. not wearing sun protection
not gonna mention the chemicals floating around your organs?, taking time off your lifespan?
Pretty darn interesting. I've gotten tattoos before and may again, but it is incredible how everything (living or not) is composed of a literal world that sustains it through it's trials and tribulations. There's always a larger and smaller creation you are a part of.
After watching this, I’m so glad I never got a tattoo and have much more appreciation for the hard work my body does everyday.
as a person with depression and the whole back tattoed with a huuge dragon, I cried a lot in the end when the video says "this is how much your body loves you "
I know right, I did want to get more tattoos but now I feel too sorry for my macrophages, it's best I leave them little buddies be , and protect me from real danger
So love your body by stop hurting them 😊
@@LittlePenguinHouse i mean, if your immune system is intact and you're not living in an aggressively infectious environment, you should be fine. like, it's nice and wholesome to anthropomorphise parts of your organism, but, in the end, if you just wanna get a tattoo - get it :)
ass advice@@cescimes
You should check out someone called Medical Medium! He talks about how our immune system is always there for us and how it never goes against itself. further he talks about we can support it with tools he provides in his books like the heavy metal detox smoothie to remove the ink in our blood with ingredients in the smoothie, of which there has been lots of studies on that they do remove metals. I don't have a tattoo myself but I have dealt with depression, and had metal exposure through other events, and his info has completely changed how I feel and how I go about my day
Best regards from Norway!

@cheadoc4808 I didn't know about it! Have been following here for years but not many Brazilians can read/understand English. I hope it gets uploaded there soon!
I've always wondered how tattoos work, since the skin is constantly replacing itself. The most I knew is that it was injected directly into the dermis to keep it from being shed off. I had no idea it was actually the immune system itself keeping the tattoo in its perfect shape! Humanity sure does know how to best manipulate our body to do the things WE want it to.
eh more like trying random and often stupid shit and keeping track of what works
Our bodies are putting up with our poor life decisions. Tattoos for example and to fix it they need to be hurt again.

This makes so much sense. I was diagnosed with an auto-imune disease right after I got my first tattoo. I’ve always had this disease but was never aware of it. The tattoo caused it to react though. Luckily now it’s under control again.
What happend? Did you fell really ill and had to go to the hospital after getting that tattoo?
@@Blex_040I’m also curious about it
@@Blex_040yeah, what is a auto imune disease?
An auto immune disease is when your bodies defense systems attack itself. Stress and trauma can cause some of them, like Crohn's or vasculitis, to present themselves.
Searched it online, but basically, the immune system also attacks healthy cells when attacking the "enemy", so the the immune system of the person will create even more damage
As much as I love my tattoos, I would have never gotten them if I knew what turmoil I was putting my amazing immune system through. Such little badasses, I feel so bad.

Tattoos are forbidden in Islam. Only a wise and All Knowing God would forbidden something that will decades later be known to be harmful.
Unfortunately tattoo ink is less harmful than most of the chemicals we ingest/ absorb in our dish soap, shampoos, cologne, most household products etc. so please also stop using these and only buy all natural, non toxic products!
@@ambitiousmuslimrecordings3451
They knew it was harmful back then because it caused infections. A person is poking your skin over and over with a tiny sharp needle while drawing blood. Anyone with eyes can see that its damaging the body.
@@jfkf939lol bro when you’re using shampoo, cologne, etc., it doesn’t go past your dermis. Tattoos do, which is exactly the concern. The chemicals we ingest (especially through micro plastics) are definitely a concern as well so you’re right there
I'm sorry but saying "meaningful tattoo" is so stupid. There's no "meaningful" reason to mutilate yourself. No one needs to write things on their bodies. It's just stupid. Like mothers who get tattoos of their children names as if they will forget them if they don't ? It's just very stupid and harmful.
