As a phlebotomist I wouldn't suggest coughing while someone is trying to draw blood. It could prohibit someone to get your blood work and you will have to be stuck again. Just saying...
I'm sorry I don't doubt what you're saying to be true but could you maybe elaborate just a little bit more? Like us it because coughing can cause the needle to exit the vain or?
@@Wicked_KnightRetired nurse here. Yes, you're right. Veins used for routine blood tests or drips aren't strongly built. When the needle is in the hollow centre of a vein, where the blood is, sudden movement of the body e.g. a cough can cause the limb & vein to move relative to the needle which is being held static by the vampire. This can cause the needle's sharp point to go through another part of the vein and into the surrounding tissue. This means: a) the needle is out of the blood flow. If too little blood was obtained for the tests required, the procedure needs repeating with another vein and needle. b) the vein will be bleeding into the tissues from the accidental damage, so big bruise. c) last but not least, the new damage hurts. When having blood taken or a drip sited staying still is important to maximise the chance of success first time. For injections staying still is also important because a sudden movement by the patient can snap the needle off below the skin. This is rare & easily sorted, but is better avoided.
When I go to get bloodwork done, I breathe through my nose, hold it and let go once the needle is in. Almost painless unless they don’t wait for the alcohol from the wipe to dry
#12 That is a zen moment, when you give yourself over. The glands also kick into gear when you're about to eat to begin the digestion process. Some people's, like myself, are over-active and sting until it really gets flowing -- so, if you didn't know why your jaw stings when you're taking your first bite, now you do

I actually sort of knew the eye taste correlation. Fruit loops, skittles and some other sweet sugary treats often in fact all the different colours taste the same. But because we associate different colours with different flavours. Jelly Belly jelly beans often however do not have colours that we associate with certain flavours. And because of this, sometimes it is hard to tell what tbe actually flavours are supposed to be. Which is why the put a list on the packaging with the colour(s) of the beans and what it is supposed to taste like. Then there is this whole thing that most flavourings don't actually even taste anything like what the flavour of the actually item is supposed to taste like, yet we believe and recognize that grape flavour taste like grapes and strawberry flavour taste like strawberries, for example when the often taste nothing like the real item. Try it. Buy an item you really think tastes like grapes, cherries, and strawberries. And buy actually grapes and strawberries. With your eyes closed, eat a strawberry then taste one of the glasses of the flavours. Chances are your brain will struggle to identify what flavour you drank. Clean your palette and with your eye closed eat a grape, then take a sip of each drink. Make sure you do real strawberry first then real grape. You'll surprisingly will find it harder not easier to figure out which drink was grape. I chose these two because grapes and strawberries taste nothing a like. Citrus fruits taste too similar to begin with and have similar smell and textures as do apples and pears, various berries. You want something that are clearly different in size, texture, smell etc.
If my internal clock slows down as I get older, wouldn't the days seem longer? They seem shorter. My first 20 years seemed way longer than the last 40.
I must comment on the flavor of choice in the remark used to exit 22, Sight effecting taste. The line Itself was (very) tasteful; delivery and timing can turn what's sweet,... savory. Now let it breathe.
12:52 I’m sorry, but I’ve suffered from depression my entire adult life. I started getting Botox maybe two years ago, and have never felt any emotional improvement. Maybe I need to get more, lol.
I know that for all your young teen and adult life you can maintain a healthy slim figure, but within a few years of mid adulthood you can gain weight overnight even if you eat relatively healthy and boom all kinds of problems stem from that weight gain.
Guys can breastfeed. They’re um… breasts? has all the necessary parts to produce breastmilk. A guy can breastfeed by 1. Having a certain type of brain tumor. 2. Stimulating the breasts manually. 3.

Good list; Mike, you’re a goofball! For some reason, for me, when I get a shot, I have to see the needle go in. I’m not sure why, but knowing the exact moment it goes in, helps to keep it from being painful. I liken it to going to the eye doctor and getting the puff in your eye. I can’t stop blinking because I don’t know when it’s going to happen. Somehow that has always surprised everyone I’ve told.
I’m the exact opposite. If I don’t see it then I’m going to be unaware of when the pain comes and by that time it’s already over.🤷🏻♀️ I have no idea, but in my mind, it works.😂
Not surprised by that at all. I always watch any medical procedures I get if I can. My job for 25 years was installing carpets. I had gotten stitches at least 6 times in those years. Once got stitches thru my finger nail on my middle finger when it was split like a banana. I watched the doctor give me the stitches every time and they would always comment that almost no one else watched when they gave them stitches. I don’t understand how you wouldn’t want to watch that.
I have watched so many videos over the years to learn about multiple subjects. It's rare that I learn something new at this point (regarding my interests). I didn't know any of these, and I thank you for adding wrinkles to my brain 😊
What I find funny, is that after Mom and Dad got divorced when I was 13, even though I was Raised by Mom, of the three kids (myself the youngest), I gained More of Dad's habits and feelings (Mom accusing me Often that I acted like him). Yes, I did visit and call, but still, the way I act, you would Assume that I was raised by my Dad rather than my Mom.
This is really interesting, my son’s dad decided we weren’t important and left us when he was 2 years old. He’s 35 now and sadly his dad is no longer alive, but it always fascinated me that as a child he had so many of his dad’s mannerisms, behaviors and attitudes. It made me question my own attributes since I am adopted. I wonder about my own traits, of course I know some are from the adults that raised me, but my personality is definitely far different from my adoptive mom and dad. Anyway o realize I’m commenting on a 4 month old video lol, just thought your comment was thought provoking, 😊
i know im 10 months late to the convo but figured id add my experience with this type of situation. so personally ive nvr met my biological father mom had an affair and along came me. so my dad ( the man who riased me and i would die for ) has always tried to get me to go into a similar type of work that he is in but i was never into electrical work. what i love doing is general renovations and im completetly self taught. i can pretty much build a house from the ground up minus making the foundation. thats one thing i just nvr got around to working on yet lol. but i can gut a house and re build it all and do pretty much all aspects of the job on my own if i truly wantd to......i found out talking to my sister from my bio dads side that our "dad" used to do this type of work for a living. he ran a crew of guys that would renovate homes or buy homes and gut and re finish to flip them. before this he was a lead hand for a company that after a crew of workers came to a house any issues with any part of a reno my bio dad would get sent in to repair. from roofing to plumbing and all in between. its so crazy when i heard this i realized why my dad hates the line of work i love doing. every time i talk about my day he must get remoinders of this loser who got with my mom lol. ....just so odd the way w are conneted to our parents in ways we cant ever understand. the human body and its way of working is such a special thing. and people say we are small and insignificant HA.
13:14 it has been scientifically proven that putting a cheerful smile on your face for at least one minute activates neurons in your brain to trigger a release of endorphins. Doing this can actually make a person feel happier and more positive about the future. If done regularly, it has been shown to decrease the incidence and frequency of mild depression and is one of the coping mechanisms taught by psychologists to aid in the reduction of some symptoms of sadness.
I heard that "Event Threshold" thing before. It happens so often at our house we call it an "event horizon problem" and walk back out the door. We all know what that means. (Yes, I know "horizon" and "threshold" are two different things, just what we call it).
Health scientist here. While you've clearly done your research, there is a mistake. It takes a lot of genetic mutations, & usually many years for a cancer to develop (which is why there's a greater risk of cancer with age). It's not a one & done thing, thank goodness. If it was, a lot more people would be struggling with cancer. But you're totally right about our bodies killing off cancer cells. This is the basis for some cancer therapies. Immunity based cancer therapies help the body to recognise certain cancer cells as foreign & kill them off. These types of therapies are becoming more & more helpful, meaning that with other therapies too, one day we may be able to move away from traditional chemotherapy treatments that make patients feel so unwell on top of their already difficult cancer symptoms. Good job though. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.
10:09 So if you still have questions about dreaming blind, I can try to answer. Btw, that going blind later in life really matters: I had sight for about 18 months but I have no memory, either conscious or of a dream, where I could see. I'm not quite sure how you measure the subjective nature of nightmares though.
The sensation of entering a room then forgetting why you entered the room: Destinesia It was a Sniglet featured in a show on HBO in the early/mid 80s. I sent it in. I was 12 at the time.
Hey Mike. I've got psoriasis buddy and I totally sympathise with you my friend. Anyway I love List 25 and I hop you and the team will always be here. Fab stuff ❤❤
@@loraweems8712 It's a hippy culture song by Matthews Southern Comfort called Woodstock, written by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, so the original version and also a version by Joni Mitchell.
@julianaylor4351 ah, so! Many thanks! Although I'm only 61, my big sister is 10 years older, so I grew up listening to Crosby, Stills, and Nash (and occasionally, Young...) The reference was familiar, I just couldn't place it.
I commiserate with you I have psoriasis too they call it ‘the heartbreak of psoriasis’! New medicine is out there but there not consistent with insurance coverage copays are out of control. My copayment was almost $2000 per month. Trying to get a cheaper one aooroved but Humira did wonders but couldn’t pay /that copay. It resolved all my skin problems and took down some pain from psoriatic arthritis. Great video again
I'm terrified of needles. I know my phobia has nothing to do with pain, it barely hurts at all. But I have to watch the needle go in so I don't move, if I try to not look I will jump, badly enough to need to be held down. I may feel a bit faint after, but it's better than getting stuck twice.
I used to have a phobia of needles, but after my thyroid decided it was going to spend major portions of my life on a see-saw (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis), it became imperative that I get a grip needle thing.
@@maryrosekent8223 absolutely. I had epilepsy as a kid. Every couple months I had to get my blood tested, I'm not really sure why. They had to hold me down, one person on each limb, just for a single vial. It was that or pull me off the ceiling. By the time I was ten, I'd had enough and decided I needed to fix this issue. Took a few years, but I did figure out watching helped, squeezing the arm of the chair helped. A stress ball helped. And now I barely react until after the needle is out...but It's been 30 years since that. Since I'm diabetic now, that really helps. Once again needles are in my life.
Okay I just thought of a bad joke so forgive me for this. Please. If your eyes don't open wide just get robotic eyes. Okay that's bad. To be fair I have a bad eye that looks off to right at all times. The eye muscle is pulling off to the right. So I see fine, but I always look like I am staring at someone.
When Mike said if you're in a sound proof room at midnight you can hear your own hair growing, I believed him for half a second. Had to stop the video because I was laughing so much.
Because only half of it is skin cells, which coule explain why abandoned rooms or buildings have a distinctive smell. Dust not including skin cells may look the same but it is made up of the other 50% of dust contributions.
So how come we don’t need to replace tattoos? The motivation for the movie “Sliding Doors?” How can those born blind have a concept of “visible?” Hm . . .
I find it interesting that blind people have such interesting dreams and nightmares. As an aphant I don't dream except under times if extreme stress. And I'm always thrown off because they seem like I'm awake. The rest of the time, I close my eyes and open them, nothing in between.
@@Bluerose888 I've heard that over and over. But I don't think they've done enough research since they barely understand aphants at all. They have barely done enough research to truly understand us awake.
23:57 Gag reflex goes either way, it can hinder, or help, depends on how you look at it...but basically, it should help remove a blockage that is forming.
Best thing I've found for psoriasis is tea tree oil. Had psoriasis for 30+ years and nothing helped long term but tea tree oil got rid of all my scalp plaques and kept them gone. Treated twice, left on scalp for a couple of hours each time and they've never come back. Just used generic Walmart tee tree oil.
Fact 12 delt with vomit...... to avoid vomiting all together just hum, "To soothe your stomach and avoid vomiting, just start humming. It seems too good to be true as it is so simple, but humming will override the nausea by suppressing the gag reflex. The simple truth is you can't hum and gag at the same time."
You can also temporarily stop your gag reflex by smiling. By smiling the muscles you use to gag will be otherwise engaged. An interesting tip from Sara Sidle on CSI.
Ya know, i knew about poo transplants, but i didn't expect them for those reason, nor did i expect to hear that particular fact mid bite into my dinner. Its not a huge deal as I've lived with my mother having an ostomy bag, just caught me off guard. 😅😅
Ha, on one of your older vids you had an obvious red blotch on your neck. I just figured a bus full of beautiful college cheer leaders recognized a youtube superstar and left a mark on your neck after having their way with you ;)
When it comes to our eyes, being able to have a sense of taste, and it connected to taste, the crazy thing is if presented with opportunity there’s a chance that I would really give up my sense of taste, especially if it meant I could regain my eyesight I know it sounds extreme and I had always thought I was just like fine at this point with the fact that my eyes it’s deteriorating and I’m officially legally binding only but I’m not fully blind someday but if by some great miracle, I could get my eyesight back in from but not losing my sense of taste. There’s a chance I would take that. Because then, at least maybe I could eat healthier too and that all the healthy food that I feel taste horrible won’t make a difference. I’d be eating the healthy food because I won’t be tasting what I feel is nasty tasting, but I won’t taste a thing and also give me a chance to eat healthier food without Hunt Road about the taste of it, and so maybe I could shred a few pounds as well Constant nightmares in people who are sighted people who are born by the people who lost their I say overtime I get it. I’m specially losing my eyesight since I was like well my whole life I only found out about the disorder that causes me to lose it when I was 8 1/2 Note, I’m pushing 31 now and as I’ve gotten older and my site has gotten worse, I’ve noticed a difference in my dreams and everything from when I was young and I said yeah I don’t mean like a young kid but I mean even my teenage years in early 20s since I was officially diagnosed as legally blind at 23 since then I have noticed the real difference in my dreams and nightmares and all that on them living proof of it but now I’m curious to know more I’m gonna ask some of my sighted friends with good vision/perfect vision was like for them along with other people I know who are what we call in the black community partially cited they don’t wanna ask the people I know who are fully blind, but lost it later in life, as well as the people I know who are born, blind, or became fully find out extremely young ages because now I am really quite curious on how that affects the dreams/nightmares
I wish you had said that the anticipation of sex helped all hair growth. I feel like my hair has gotten really thin. It’s kind of sad that thinking sex could help might really up my game. 😂
gotta comment on 7, time appears to have gone by quicker as you age is because you can associate more memories to the past and actual new memories are less and less as experience is gained .... IMO
Oh uhh ya….. I don’t want a beard……that’s totally why I don’t have sex, it’s certainly not cause Im repulsive, terrible to be around and that im totally undesirable……yep i uhh just don’t want a beard….
IDK how this is explained, but here goes. Since I had Covid in 2020, I "Iose" time. Not like I did during the illness though. That was from the fever. Now, for instance I'll look at the clock & say, it'll say 11:30 AM. Next time I look I'll expect it to say it's 3:30 PM, but no, it'll be 6:30 pm, or even later! IDK where the time has gone! It's very discombobulating! As for time passing faster as you age, I have a joke I'll share. I heard it a VERY long time ago! How is time like toilet paper? The closer you are to the end, the faster it goes! 😁
8:50 My husband heard this & said, "yep, that's true...f*ck, I dropped that memory in the bedroom...hang on, I'll be right back!" It made me lol so much I had to share. Although now I'm thinking, maybe it's one of those things where u have to be there for it to be funny, lol 🤦♀️😜🤷♀️✌️
I got a mind bender for you, what do your boogers smell like? What do your taste buds taste like? You can't smell your own booger but can you smell other peoples boogers? And do your taste buds taste like the person you last kissed taste buds? Can you smell your tongue? Does phlegm smell like anything?
Having returned to List25 after almost two years, I come across this video and was surprised by the notion of coughing before and injection, as I have always looked at the needle and feel no pain from doing so. Also, I can't widen my eyes even if I raise my eyebrows.
I got a new prescription for some diabetes medication (Mounjaro) and in Germany (in contrast to the USA) there is not yet a ready-made pen on the market and I have to inject it myself because Ozempic and Wagovy are hardly available in the ready-made pen here. My GP gave me needles that were far too long and the pharmacy wanted a fortune for finer needles and I had the pharmacist explain exactly what I had to do but I still was very nervous before the first shot (because the needles from the GP should only go 1/3 into the skin), when a friend who is nurse said to me "Just hum or sing when preparing, that helps with anxiety". I thought she was crazy, but it helped me a lot! I've since bought finer needles on the internet, so it's no longer a problem. But I've never had such a big problem with needles, except that I get nauseous when I look at my own blood when taking blood or injuries (strangely enough only with my own blood). Our brains are strange sometimes.
Mike, you are hilarious, with trying to open your eyes wider. I too have a very expressive face and all my emotions are seen there. Guess it is good that I don't play poker.
So if everyone's brain is an airport mine in the lowest budget Pray you make it there alive, even if just Barely alive. 😂 Thanks Matt you have given me a Whole other way of looking at my messed up health. Sadly mistaken of it is Neurological so, it is like a Complete 💩💩💩show... Plus I have ADHD and some brain damage too so it is like some crazy cartoon characters run the show and that is why my nervous system is Complete and Utter Chaos... Might need to use that to channel my suppressed creativity and gain control over my symptoms even more so.
9:14 blind person here. While I can’t see into other people‘s dreams, I think I would have to agree with this. I have had some of the worst and most messed up dreams ever.
I hope the gag reflex thing works because sometimes I can't even have breakfast after I brush my teeth in the morning because my gag reflex is so sensitive it doesn't go away till hours later all because of brushing my tongue physically makes me sick due to my gag reflex

@@Wicked_KnightRetired nurse here. Yes, you're right. Veins used for routine blood tests or drips aren't strongly built. When the needle is in the hollow centre of a vein, where the blood is, sudden movement of the body e.g. a cough can cause the limb & vein to move relative to the needle which is being held static by the vampire. This can cause the needle's sharp point to go through another part of the vein and into the surrounding tissue.

When having blood taken or a drip sited staying still is important to maximise the chance of success first time.
For injections staying still is also important because a sudden movement by the patient can snap the needle off below the skin. This is rare & easily sorted, but is better avoided.
@@sandyhenderson441 Thank you, I thought that was the case, but I didn't want to assume.

i know im 10 months late to the convo but figured id add my experience with this type of situation. so personally ive nvr met my biological father mom had an affair and along came me. so my dad ( the man who riased me and i would die for ) has always tried to get me to go into a similar type of work that he is in but i was never into electrical work. what i love doing is general renovations and im completetly self taught. i can pretty much build a house from the ground up minus making the foundation. thats one thing i just nvr got around to working on yet lol. but i can gut a house and re build it all and do pretty much all aspects of the job on my own if i truly wantd to......i found out talking to my sister from my bio dads side that our "dad" used to do this type of work for a living. he ran a crew of guys that would renovate homes or buy homes and gut and re finish to flip them. before this he was a lead hand for a company that after a crew of workers came to a house any issues with any part of a reno my bio dad would get sent in to repair. from roofing to plumbing and all in between. its so crazy when i heard this i realized why my dad hates the line of work i love doing. every time i talk about my day he must get remoinders of this loser who got with my mom lol. ....just so odd the way w are conneted to our parents in ways we cant ever understand. the human body and its way of working is such a special thing. and people say we are small and insignificant HA.
13:14 it has been scientifically proven that putting a cheerful smile on your face for at least one minute activates neurons in your brain to trigger a release of endorphins. Doing this can actually make a person feel happier and more positive about the future. If done regularly, it has been shown to decrease the incidence and frequency of mild depression and is one of the coping mechanisms taught by psychologists to aid in the reduction of some symptoms of sadness.
#12 is definitely true!! I know as soon as my mouth waters in a certain way, that I’m going to get sick. Guaranteed!
I heard that "Event Threshold" thing before. It happens so often at our house we call it an "event horizon problem" and walk back out the door. We all know what that means. (Yes, I know "horizon" and "threshold" are two different things, just what we call it).
Health scientist here. While you've clearly done your research, there is a mistake. It takes a lot of genetic mutations, & usually many years for a cancer to develop (which is why there's a greater risk of cancer with age). It's not a one & done thing, thank goodness. If it was, a lot more people would be struggling with cancer. But you're totally right about our bodies killing off cancer cells. This is the basis for some cancer therapies. Immunity based cancer therapies help the body to recognise certain cancer cells as foreign & kill them off. These types of therapies are becoming more & more helpful, meaning that with other therapies too, one day we may be able to move away from traditional chemotherapy treatments that make patients feel so unwell on top of their already difficult cancer symptoms. Good job though. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.
Another way to reduce cancer is to stop eating processed foods.
We are literally the universe experiencing itself.
10:09 So if you still have questions about dreaming blind, I can try to answer. Btw, that going blind later in life really matters: I had sight for about 18 months but I have no memory, either conscious or of a dream, where I could see. I'm not quite sure how you measure the subjective nature of nightmares though.
I would assume they would ask the person having the nightmare to measure it. Like scale of 1 to 20 how bad was it.
So is your dreaming different from someone who does remember seeing, then? Fascinating
The sensation of entering a room then forgetting why you entered the room:
Destinesia
It was a Sniglet featured in a show on HBO in the early/mid 80s. I sent it in. I was 12 at the time.
I love this channel. Mike is hilarious and the information is interesting. ❤❤
Hey Mike. I've got psoriasis buddy and I totally sympathise with you my friend. Anyway I love List 25 and I hop you and the team will always be here. Fab stuff ❤❤
#20 about visual inversion I learned it in 10th grade biology.😇😇😇
To be fair when you said at the risk of offending some viewers.....if they are blind i wouldn't call them viewers 🤷
Good on you for copping to psoriasis.
We are stardust, We are golden,....🎶❤️
I remember Carl Sagan saying, in his 1980 PBS show 'Cosmos ', "We are made of Star stuff'.
@@loraweems8712 It's a hippy culture song by Matthews Southern Comfort called Woodstock, written by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, so the original version and also a version by Joni Mitchell.
@julianaylor4351 ah, so! Many thanks!
Although I'm only 61, my big sister is 10 years older, so I grew up listening to Crosby, Stills, and Nash (and occasionally, Young...)
The reference was familiar, I just couldn't place it.
@@loraweems8712 I'm 62 and have been a popular music fan all my life and a record collector since my teens.
We are billion year old carbon...
Too late Mike, when you stated that one's Hair grows faster in the Anticipation of Sex, my mind said, NOT THE ONLY THING (bada Ting)
I commiserate with you I have psoriasis too they call it ‘the heartbreak of psoriasis’! New medicine is out there but there not consistent with insurance coverage copays are out of control. My copayment was almost $2000 per month. Trying to get a cheaper one aooroved but Humira did wonders but couldn’t pay /that copay. It resolved all my skin problems and took down some pain from psoriatic arthritis. Great video again
I'm terrified of needles. I know my phobia has nothing to do with pain, it barely hurts at all. But I have to watch the needle go in so I don't move, if I try to not look I will jump, badly enough to need to be held down. I may feel a bit faint after, but it's better than getting stuck twice.
I used to have a phobia of needles, but after my thyroid decided it was going to spend major portions of my life on a see-saw (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis), it became imperative that I get a grip needle thing.
@@maryrosekent8223 absolutely. I had epilepsy as a kid. Every couple months I had to get my blood tested, I'm not really sure why. They had to hold me down, one person on each limb, just for a single vial. It was that or pull me off the ceiling.
By the time I was ten, I'd had enough and decided I needed to fix this issue. Took a few years, but I did figure out watching helped, squeezing the arm of the chair helped. A stress ball helped. And now I barely react until after the needle is out...but It's been 30 years since that.
Since I'm diabetic now, that really helps. Once again needles are in my life.
#11 look in a mirror, look at your left eye, now look at your right eye, did you see your eyes move ? :D
Okay I just thought of a bad joke so forgive me for this. Please. If your eyes don't open wide just get robotic eyes. Okay that's bad. To be fair I have a bad eye that looks off to right at all times. The eye muscle is pulling off to the right. So I see fine, but I always look like I am staring at someone.
When Mike said if you're in a sound proof room at midnight you can hear your own hair growing, I believed him for half a second. Had to stop the video because I was laughing so much.
Mike: "Keep your mind out of the gutter."
Me: "If I do, I'll be lost!!"😂
If dust is dead human skin how do rooms that have been locked for decades have so much dust?
Good point
Because only half of it is skin cells, which coule explain why abandoned rooms or buildings have a distinctive smell. Dust not including skin cells may look the same but it is made up of the other 50% of dust contributions.
The largest organ of the body is our skin, or epidermis.
So how come we don’t need to replace tattoos? The motivation for the movie “Sliding Doors?” How can those born blind have a concept of “visible?”
Hm . . .
What are shadows made of??
for #14 i have whats called resting B face. so im screwed lol
I find it interesting that blind people have such interesting dreams and nightmares. As an aphant I don't dream except under times if extreme stress. And I'm always thrown off because they seem like I'm awake. The rest of the time, I close my eyes and open them, nothing in between.
Years ago I heard that everyone dreams, some you just don't remember them, that's why you think you didn't have a dream.
@@Bluerose888 I've heard that over and over. But I don't think they've done enough research since they barely understand aphants at all. They have barely done enough research to truly understand us awake.
I have only enough body fat to make 2.75 bars of soap.
I KNEEEEWWWWWW IT! I can smell objects through my fingers. That’s my superpower.
23:57 Gag reflex goes either way, it can hinder, or help, depends on how you look at it...but basically, it should help remove a blockage that is forming.
If you swear when you are in pain they have found it actually increases your pain tolerance so things don't hurt so bad
Best thing I've found for psoriasis is tea tree oil. Had psoriasis for 30+ years and nothing helped long term but tea tree oil got rid of all my scalp plaques and kept them gone. Treated twice, left on scalp for a couple of hours each time and they've never come back. Just used generic Walmart tee tree oil.
The skin-dust rate prob is increased to around 75-80% because of your own skin condition, right Mike? 🤔
But you ain't alone there, Bud...i, myself,have snake-skin added with dander...so I feel your lung pain! Lol
Let's throw in scalp psoriasis! Hair dander and skin flakes, yay!
Fact 12 delt with vomit...... to avoid vomiting all together just hum, "To soothe your stomach and avoid vomiting, just start humming. It seems too good to be true as it is so simple, but humming will override the nausea by suppressing the gag reflex. The simple truth is you can't hum and gag at the same time."
But what about your body warning you that you need to get something out of your body?
I can't wait to try this!
If my mouth
doesn't say it, my face SURELY will ! lol
I've known extra saliva prior to vomiting is a thing since I was a little girl!! I didn't know anyone DIDN'T know!
i saw a video about blue eyes. Only about 8% of the people on earth have blue eyes and we all descended from one common ancestor.
You can also temporarily stop your gag reflex by smiling. By smiling the muscles you use to gag will be otherwise engaged. An interesting tip from Sara Sidle on CSI.
....dust....yuck
Ya know, i knew about poo transplants, but i didn't expect them for those reason, nor did i expect to hear that particular fact mid bite into my dinner. Its not a huge deal as I've lived with my mother having an ostomy bag, just caught me off guard. 😅😅
12:43 So if I walk around with my “O” face…?
😂
Ha, on one of your older vids you had an obvious red blotch on your neck. I just figured a bus full of beautiful college cheer leaders recognized a youtube superstar and left a mark on your neck after having their way with you ;)
Oh and #Mikefact: I'll bet putting contacts in is a nightmare!
Nope. Psoriasis.
Fun fact… that shirt made me instantly thirsty.
The man. The myth. The beard.

There's no advantage in large eyes...in fact the opposite, you're more likely to be short sighted. I have large eyes....I'm quite short sighted.
When it comes to our eyes, being able to have a sense of taste, and it connected to taste, the crazy thing is if presented with opportunity there’s a chance that I would really give up my sense of taste, especially if it meant I could regain my eyesight I know it sounds extreme and I had always thought I was just like fine at this point with the fact that my eyes it’s deteriorating and I’m officially legally binding only but I’m not fully blind someday but if by some great miracle, I could get my eyesight back in from but not losing my sense of taste. There’s a chance I would take that. Because then, at least maybe I could eat healthier too and that all the healthy food that I feel taste horrible won’t make a difference. I’d be eating the healthy food because I won’t be tasting what I feel is nasty tasting, but I won’t taste a thing and also give me a chance to eat healthier food without Hunt Road about the taste of it, and so maybe I could shred a few pounds as well
Constant nightmares in people who are sighted people who are born by the people who lost their I say overtime I get it. I’m specially losing my eyesight since I was like well my whole life I only found out about the disorder that causes me to lose it when I was 8 1/2 Note, I’m pushing 31 now and as I’ve gotten older and my site has gotten worse, I’ve noticed a difference in my dreams and everything from when I was young and I said yeah I don’t mean like a young kid but I mean even my teenage years in early 20s since I was officially diagnosed as legally blind at 23 since then I have noticed the real difference in my dreams and nightmares and all that on them living proof of it but now I’m curious to know more I’m gonna ask some of my sighted friends with good vision/perfect vision was like for them along with other people I know who are what we call in the black community partially cited they don’t wanna ask the people I know who are fully blind, but lost it later in life, as well as the people I know who are born, blind, or became fully find out extremely young ages because now I am really quite curious on how that affects the dreams/nightmares
Weird facts: where the ordinary meets the extraordinary in a bizarre dance of curiosity.

I wish you had said that the anticipation of sex helped all hair growth. I feel like my hair has gotten really thin. It’s kind of sad that thinking sex could help might really up my game. 😂
gotta comment on 7, time appears to have gone by quicker as you age is because you can associate more memories to the past and actual new memories are less and less as experience is gained .... IMO
What movie was that clip from? I think that was Eddie Redmayne…
What causes dust in abandoned homes?
Oh uhh ya….. I don’t want a beard……that’s totally why I don’t have sex, it’s certainly not cause Im repulsive, terrible to be around and that im totally undesirable……yep i uhh just don’t want a beard….
IDK how this is explained, but here goes. Since I had Covid in 2020, I "Iose" time. Not like I did during the illness though. That was from the fever. Now, for instance I'll look at the clock & say, it'll say 11:30 AM. Next time I look I'll expect it to say it's 3:30 PM, but no, it'll be 6:30 pm, or even later! IDK where the time has gone! It's very discombobulating! As for time passing faster as you age, I have a joke I'll share. I heard it a VERY long time ago! How is time like toilet paper? The closer you are to the end, the faster it goes! 😁
8:50 My husband heard this & said, "yep, that's true...f*ck, I dropped that memory in the bedroom...hang on, I'll be right back!" It made me lol so much I had to share. Although now I'm thinking, maybe it's one of those things where u have to be there for it to be funny, lol 🤦♀️😜🤷♀️✌️
Thankyou Handsome Sexy Mr Beard, Thankyou for some fun facts. Others I over passed .
Be careful,safe & warm ❤️🔥💯🙏🐾😺
We are stardust, we are golden….who knew Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young were being accurate, not poetic. Probably happy coincidence.😊
I got a mind bender for you, what do your boogers smell like? What do your taste buds taste like? You can't smell your own booger but can you smell other peoples boogers? And do your taste buds taste like the person you last kissed taste buds? Can you smell your tongue? Does phlegm smell like anything?
Yeah Einstein wasn’t 100% correct. Quantum physics disproved relativity, sorry bro. But you still have the photo electric affect.
4000g(grams of skin cells shred in a year)/365(days in a year)=10.96 grams of skin cells a day- that sound like a lot
As for star dust any fan of joni Mitchell could have told you we are stardust, we are golden...
Having returned to List25 after almost two years, I come across this video and was surprised by the notion of coughing before and injection, as I have always looked at the needle and feel no pain from doing so. Also, I can't widen my eyes even if I raise my eyebrows.
I got a new prescription for some diabetes medication (Mounjaro) and in Germany (in contrast to the USA) there is not yet a ready-made pen on the market and I have to inject it myself because Ozempic and Wagovy are hardly available in the ready-made pen here. My GP gave me needles that were far too long and the pharmacy wanted a fortune for finer needles and I had the pharmacist explain exactly what I had to do but I still was very nervous before the first shot (because the needles from the GP should only go 1/3 into the skin), when a friend who is nurse said to me "Just hum or sing when preparing, that helps with anxiety". I thought she was crazy, but it helped me a lot! I've since bought finer needles on the internet, so it's no longer a problem. But I've never had such a big problem with needles, except that I get nauseous when I look at my own blood when taking blood or injuries (strangely enough only with my own blood). Our brains are strange sometimes.
Mike, you are hilarious, with trying to open your eyes wider. I too have a very expressive face and all my emotions are seen there. Guess it is good that I don't play poker.
Are you single, Mike? I like your beard. 😝
I am not. My girlfriend and I have been together over 4 years now.

So if everyone's brain is an airport mine in the lowest budget Pray you make it there alive, even if just Barely alive. 😂 Thanks Matt you have given me a Whole other way of looking at my messed up health. Sadly mistaken of it is Neurological so, it is like a Complete 💩💩💩show... Plus I have ADHD and some brain damage too so it is like some crazy cartoon characters run the show and that is why my nervous system is Complete and Utter Chaos... Might need to use that to channel my suppressed creativity and gain control over my symptoms even more so.
9:14 blind person here. While I can’t see into other people‘s dreams, I think I would have to agree with this. I have had some of the worst and most messed up dreams ever.
I hope the gag reflex thing works because sometimes I can't even have breakfast after I brush my teeth in the morning because my gag reflex is so sensitive it doesn't go away till hours later all because of brushing my tongue physically makes me sick due to my gag reflex
