The coats they wore were coated with wax, which protected them very well against fleas and infected putule blood as they also tucked their leather pantaloons into their boots. This combined with a hood, mask and hat granted them full immunity from the plague, hence why the look is so iconic.
It blew my mind to learn that the plague doctor character was not a mythical creature thought to be spreading the outbreak, or a medieval concept of the Grim Reaper, but rather an honest-to-god human being in a primitive biohazard suit, trying to do what is right. I don't know why, but learning this makes me more afraid of them than I ever was before. Unfortunately, due to their lack of success, the costume probably was an early concept of the Grim Reaper. A plague doctor rarely (if ever) meant that a patient would recover and get back to their normal life. It meant that death was on its way.
@@laurasmith6168 yep watched this in 6th grade during Halloween dress up day or whatever and people call me plague doctor so i was that and this had to be played in my school and it was MADNESS
I don't find the topic morbid at all. The topic is obviously really interesting to the guy which is why he's smiling so often, but I think just the amount of times the guy keeps smiling makes it strange. I don't mind smiling but this guy is raising his eyebrows and full on smiling (showing all of his teeth) which implies that he's really interested, which is, in a way, sort of offputting.
I first thought the iconic plague figure was a mythical creature thought to be spreading the plague. Either that, or a medieval concept of the Grim Reaper. It blew my mind to learn that it was an ordinary human being inside a primitive biohazard suit, who was a doctor trying to do what is best for the infected patients and society.
they wouldnt really try their best, they knew that they were screwed, so they would usually do fake antidote to get money, hell they werent even real doctors they werent qualified as a real doctor
If this man was my professor i will no doubt learn more-Edit: I dont find him ugly or visually ill. I find him interesting and the way he explains is so clear and captivating, so i am inclined to learn more that way.
Plague doctors are amazing. I love the early biohazard suits too. And here's the best part. Since the suits completely concealed the doctors body, including the mask. If the plague was spread the coughing or water droplets in the air, the doctor had a mask and was safe since no skin was exposed. And since the doctors wore wax covered suits, their bodies were protected like he said from fleas which unintentionally, blocked the ways you catch the plague. Meaning doctors had less chance of catching plague. So if a real outbreak happens in modern day and your caught in the middle. This would be a good cheap, makeshift bio-containment suit. I'd love to purchase one in the future. And you'd look badass too.
Can people stop calling this man ugly? It's very rude. And so what if his teeth aren't the best? He's obviously getting old and when you get older your teeth start to rot. How would you like it if you were that man and everyone starred calling you ugly? You'd be offended wouldn't you? So stop being ignorant and rude and have some respect for other people
Minor things here... The robes a plague doctor wore consisted of thick Moroccan leather impregnated with a slick oil and were also slicked with oil prior to entry into a plague house to keep "the disease" from attaching itself to the doctor. Additionally, the doctors wore a leather head piece that was tucked into the mask to provide a (mostly) air tight seal, and tall heavy leather boots. In reality the dress was extremely effective and the doctors didn't get sick even after diagnosing sick patients all day. You were correct when you said a doctor noted that flees couldn't a fix themselves to the doctor due to the dress and that's what made it so incredibly effective. Unfortunately the same doctor noted that flees were just a mere annoyance and weren't suspected to be the cause of the disease. Finally, the stick was used to issue orders, guide, inspect, diagnose, and at times force back panicked infected persons.
I asked my father for a plague doctor outfit, My mother completely hated the idea of me and my friend being plague doctors but my dad approves. *i’m* *going* *to* *target* *in* *a* *plague* *doctor* *outfit*
As far as I'm aware, the suits were worn by all or most doctors as it was their standard gear for the profession. They were somewhat effective in the sense that they had an early filtration system and stopped the fleas from getting on you.
My 9 yr old son is doing this for Halloween... It scared so much one day when he was little and seen me watching a documentary, that now, at 9, when I asked him if he wanted to be scary or.... He said Yaaa, I want to be that Dr that wore that scary bird mask. Lol, it must have stuck in his craw all these yrs later... 😉🐦🐦
I legit thought he was holding a red saber. I was thinking, “Is the plague doctor a Sith lord?” Spoiler Alert: Nope, it was just a fancy stick to ensure safe distance. 😔 A Sith Plague doctor would have been cool.
The stick was used to exam them the doctors didn’t want to get too close to look at them so the stick was used to uncover the blanket touch there face and check their body so they would have no contact with them
the staff was there so they dont come in contact with the person with the plague. they would examine them with it, for example. lifting up their shirt. moving their head side to side and so on.
In that time period plague doctors wouldn’t have had such short “beaks” to their masks and nor would metal be readily available to them or those in their social class to make something like a doctor’s mask
Im sorry, but correction* The Bubonic plauge "Black death" was caused by *Flea infected rats* not just by fleas themselves. This is because the rats or anyother rodent does not have any shots. Then so, that makes them infected.
He looks exactly how I imagined him without mask. Creepy... his smile and his teeth do the creep I think. I like listening to him talking about plague doctors, I could listen all day. He also seems to teach history in a way more interesting way than my teacher always did, maaaaan my teacher was boooring af!
The coats they wore were coated with wax, which protected them very well against fleas and infected putule blood as they also tucked their leather pantaloons into their boots. This combined with a hood, mask and hat granted them full immunity from the plague, hence why the look is so iconic.
Don't blame him he's not scary at all he's being nice and helpful

Yes, there is nothing scary about his face he’s teaching us history about the bubonic plague.
I agree with u... The others are just being childish
I though he was normal and nice in my opinion he scarded me though the smirk he gave me when he did take the mask of though but it wasnt his face
@@laurasmith6168 yep watched this in 6th grade during Halloween dress up day or whatever

I don't really mind the teeth. If anything is disturbing it's how he smiles the entire time while talking about such morbid stuff.

It is easy to understand why people thought disease came from bad smells. After all, bad smells do make you feel ill.
Those masks must have been really terrifying to the dying and their families.
It was they were like the living embodiment of death. Since the plague almost always kills.

When you saw a plague doctor back then, death was to come
That was why plague doctors became associated with death.
they wouldnt really try their best, they knew that they were screwed, so they would usually do fake antidote to get money, hell they werent even real doctors they werent qualified as a real doctor
His facial features are very unique.
Makes want to see what else this man has to tell.
Yeah right? I noticed that too.
"The Plague Doctor" is a popular costume in the Carnival of Venice.
and for my school and me
if i would see someone run around like that i would have a feeling of "THIS IS SOOO COOL!" and "OH GOD IT'S SCARY PLEASE DON'T TURN MY WAY"
"He has the plague" *_*points to friend*_*

"My cure is most effective"
"Good heavens... they should have brought me here sooner.."
I AM the cure
Like Wildfire It spread
Do not be afraid I am the cure

Same...
Lol

Damn I want that costume so amazing

He's obviously getting old and when you get older your teeth start to rot.
How would you like it if you were that man and everyone starred calling you ugly?
You'd be offended wouldn't you?
So stop being ignorant and rude and have some respect for other people
SnowyLemonOwl yeah i agree !! hes only trying to help
THANK YOU

Kaiser Wilhelm you go back to school until you learn how to write well
Aww that's so nice for you to stand up for mr. plague doctor man :)
Cool video, I want a plague doctor outfit!!!!
Amber Foster I made my own from different basic Spirit Halloween costumes and props

i want one
same
me too!
I could wear it for Halloween.
+FERRET GUY I want to orderq on McDonalds with that costume :c
Look up Tom Banwell on Etsy. He's the creator of the masks. Expensive but great quality
looks like that plague doctor was a fortune teller
His teeth scared me.
no, offense I agree
me to
Right? His teeth look like can openers...Mike Blazowski teeth bruh
Robbie Rotten, same here
arnt you dead?
The plague doctors "suit" is actually surprisingly effective!
This guy kinda creeps me out...
Yeah me too... 😲
his face scared me more then the mask
me 3
+MtnBrew CocaMoca me too 😂
SV101 YOUR TELLING ME
0:30 I just want to point out, this is known as the Miasma Theory.
I like plague doctors
i dont think people in the 1600s like them because it meant that they had the plague
@@ohokau1104 ;-; if you saw one just look at one XD but not going to you
Holy shit he totally fits the costume.
this was disturbing the way he smiled the whole time like he been through the whole plague before and is the explaining what happen
Love that last little quote!! Kept the fleas off lol
I wonder what it was like to wear one of those suits in 1665.
Scary af I would still be scared even with the suit on...
I need this outfit 😭😩
We need this now
They also used the stick to order the patients to do something or go somewhere without touching them.
You see our suits and methods are quite affective...
quit your chatter
Yes our suits are way more protective than these "hazmat suits" people speak of
My cure is most effective
SCP-049: I‘M THE CURE
049 😍😍😍😍 He's awesome☺️☺️☺️☺️😉😉😉😉
90% about his face
9% about the costume
1% like this
XD
Next time leave the mask on man. It would do us a huge favor.
+ashton gutsa I think he would scare more people with his mask off lol
+The Wanderer haha me too 😂
Michael Lopez yes please
Is everything gay these days??!
not nice

If i would have one i would go on a haloween party and yell ,,SCP!!!!!!!!!"

He said Yaaa, I want to be that Dr that wore that scary bird mask. Lol, it must have stuck in his craw all these yrs later... 😉🐦🐦
The Man's Face is scarier than the mask xD
weirdly relaxing, plague doctor asmr.
The stick was used for touching the sick patients and not poking and touching them, it was also used for what you just said :)
If plague doctors can social distance with sticks, so can we.
I am some how interested in medical purposes and medical history now :o
There are cures to most plauges or treatments
guys leave this innocent man alone! i dont think hes ugly, stop commenting on his appearance and admire how cool the costume is please :)
I have an uncontrollable compulsion to brush my teeth.
Unlike this guy lmao
I want to hold this guy down and brush his teeth for him!!!
Brand Stoker >:(
-asshole-
Bruh he's old when you get older you're teeth start to rot my dude
0:15 it's 3 am you wake up and see this staring at you
This was actually really informational
I once had a nightmare about plague doctors. Few days later, we only went and did a reading test about them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I legit thought he was holding a red saber. I was thinking, “Is the plague doctor a Sith lord?”
Spoiler Alert: Nope, it was just a fancy stick to ensure safe distance. 😔 A Sith Plague doctor would have been cool.
The stick was used to exam them the doctors didn’t want to get too close to look at them so the stick was used to uncover the blanket touch there face and check their body so they would have no contact with them
Going shopping with this during Coronavirus lockdown
Sooooo badass!!!
The stick was for what you said and was used to carefully analyse the patient
He looks really creepy without the mask his smile looks so sinister he would make a great part in a scary movie
Man was ahead of his time
😉👍
Plz give it back! 😣
lmao. I was like "what does he look like. I wanna see his face." then when he took out the mask I was like "PUT THE MASK BACK ON. MOTHER OF GOD"
XD
You gotta say, he really fits the part
it looks so cool though
Plague doctors look awesome. I don’t know why people are so scared of them.
PVEntertainment because they look like birdmen or the embodiment of death
Him: *takes mask off
Me: *hits rewind *
the staff was there so they dont come in contact with the person with the plague. they would examine them with it, for example. lifting up their shirt. moving their head side to side and so on.
I want to get this costume for Halloween. And start singing Ring Around the Rosie. And start freaking out about the pesticides
He's not wrong about the stick but it was also used by the doctor to inspect their patients from a safe distance
he's smile scared me when he took the mask off 😂
time to make me one of them suits for the current plague
They used the stick to examine the patient so they wont have to touch the patient
The costume looks sooo cute in my opinion
Scary for me
@@machineamouille6533 lol
The staff or the stick was used to observe the patient so the docter didn’t have to get close
When he took his mask off and smiled, it reminded me of Hans Landa in Inglorious Basterds
In that time period plague doctors wouldn’t have had such short “beaks” to their masks and nor would metal be readily available to them or those in their social class to make something like a doctor’s mask
teeth....
I know, right?
Waterbeemd y you bully
Atleast they are better than yours
Im sorry, but correction*
The Bubonic plauge "Black death" was caused by *Flea infected rats* not just by fleas themselves. This is because the rats or anyother rodent does not have any shots. Then so, that makes them infected.
He looks likes a time Traveller who came from that age to teach us about that time
He looks exactly how I imagined him without mask. Creepy... his smile and his teeth do the creep I think.
I like listening to him talking about plague doctors, I could listen all day. He also seems to teach history in a way more interesting way than my teacher always did, maaaaan my teacher was boooring af!
His real face is scarier than the mask.
His smile at the start is what scared you the most.
________________________________________
________________________________________
*Change my mind*
changes ur mind
That is a cool costume
His look... Is scary o.o
And the explanation was amazing kdfksksks
As the cosplay
The costume does nothing except shield against the primary vector of infection.
the stick was for pointing at things and giving directions
He doesn't need the mask to scare people.
really scary but still nicely described !!
I thought they came around in the 1700's and I think they put spices in the nose to drowned out the smell of death
The costume looks cool
What can i use for a poking stick?
i love the steam punk look of it i wamt ome please comment a link of someone that is selling one please
It only keeps the fleas off, it's useless.
I don't know why this sounds so familiar
This came into my Recommendations.... In 2021 damn
The beak needs to be really longer
This is amazing
Tom Banwell did a great job on the mask
Good job with the suits
Tbh I thought this just came from creepypasta I didn't think this was actually a real thing that existed
his teeth... his face... I am no Coward ,
but his face...
Well its better than yours

that mask in my opinion is the first try of inventing a real filter mask or what ever that is called and it is not useless as you guys think
