I had a friend who legitimately thought this was like the extra pepper for beef jerky and ate one packet. I thought this man was going to crap himself to death
The fact that the answer to this is “he was completely fine” and “a toddler played with his cat” and “a girl ate potato salad” ended in permanent damage is concerning
my sister's friend died in a motorcycle accident but the impact wasn't what killed him. it was that he landed in a pot hole and knocked him self out and died from drowning in rain water that filled the pothole
Silica gel is also known as “Silicon Dioxide” “Oxide” referring to the presence of oxygen And “Di” implying what’ll happen to you if you eat 25 packs of this
I accidentally ate the silica. The lovely man at poison control immediately asked me, "Were you making a smoothie?" Yes, I was. I had emptied some frozen smoothie ingredients into the blender. I didn't realize that something frozen would have a gel desiccant in it. Since I blended it for my usual 4 minutes, it burst the package and the beads were evenly distributed throughout. I didn't "get it" until I found the packet. Then the man at Poison Control asked how many packets were there? Just 1. He said I'd be fine, just remember to check for packets in frozen food as well as freeze-dried items! Less learned...
If it makes my beef jerky and shoes fresh then why wouldn’t it make me dripped to the toes fresh. Break the matrix look gangster. That’s why it says do not eat, afraid of the drip
For those wondering "Why would they need silica gel packets for 3D printing?" - it's to control the moisture content of the plastic filament. The filament that's fed into the 3D printer needs to be kept dry, as when it absorbs moisture from humidity in the air, it can result in reduced print quality, with under-extrusion, stringing, bubbles, and oozing, thus leading to low-quality and fragile printed parts.
This was a stress induced mental breakdown, it's heartbreaking man. When I was in the Army I broke down and thought my wife was a witch trying to use spell craft to kill me. There's no explanation for why we think what we do in a delusion but its equally sad and terrifying... I pray this man never goes back to this hell.
finally a sensible message, people calling the guy out stupid but in fact he just completely lost his mind out of stress and was beyond any reasonning, I hope nothing bad ever happens to everyone calling him an idiot
My dad had one of those and it was terrifying. He slept with a knife under his pillow and it's like he couldn't hear me or see me for who I was. Just curious were you diagnosed with anything? What treatments did you go through? I'm glad you're in a better place I'm so sorry to hear about your breakdown.

@@Fernandesninto Either that, or the stress of his workplace and being a single dad lended to him having a slight breakdown, mental health speaking. I'd lean to the stress honestly.
This wasn't just anger at corporations, he had a mental breakdown with all of the stress. He was pushed between a rock and a hard place with no relief.

Yeah, hopefully he got some help and quit his job for something else. Nowadays, the typical way to get a raise in corporate is to join another company. Sad and annoying, but true.
He hated Capitalism and tried to get away from it. But its America and I'm sure the bill from the hospital and hmo followed him home. I thought it would be a hipster trying to make a political statement with silica gel instead of a case of mental illness. That'll show the those greedy Capitalists.
Nah I snack on these tasty crustations all the time they are always falling out of the boxes at work I unpack. I love when I get an extra-sized one mmmmmmmm tasty. Good with a little water to be healthy.
In pottery you see, we clean up the little streaks of clay on the tables as we work because once that clay dries it becomes like powder and because of the silica in clay it’s is not very good to inhale. If you shouldn’t inhale silica, don’t eat it.
Microcrystalline silica (quartz), of which there is usually several percent in clays can be dangerous to inhale so it is important to take care with this. Dessicant silica is amorphous though, the molecular structure is basically random, and it shouldn't present a silicosis risk. It's still advisable to avoid breathing dust though. Generally naturally occurring silica is the bad stuff to inhale, even fine sand is a risk, silicosis is bad!
This is crazy, literally crazy. This poor dude, he felt alone and unwanted, can’t obtain anything, felt like it was a simulation. Freaked out one day and wanted to come home to be with us and be like us. Very sad.
This is the problem with viewing certain types of success as a measuring stick for worth of a person or success as a whole. Comparing ourselves with others is fraught with issues either way because it can go away in an instant with a health crisis etc. High values, character and love are what make people successful- not what the corporate industry etc promotes necessarily. In fact corporate values and rewards narcissistic people who actually make their corporations workplace sick--they haven't realized this yet on a large enough scale to make any difference. These people eat nice guys like him for breakfast, lunch & dinner. Hopelessness and depression will push anyone to this kind of behavior so don't think u are above it...
i find it weird that chubbyemu adds meme stuff to the story with only a note about it in the description. for a while i was wondering how he knew so many specific details about each case, then i realized the only true part is the actual medical parts. this guy didn't eat the packets to get back at corporations telling him what to do. the real case was probably a suicide attempt, which isn't quite as funny
@@fruitypeebils every medical story you'll ever read will be completely anonymised. you cant start talking about anything that could make it recognisable
@@johannesvahlkvist im just saying that as an average viewer, i assumed that there was a real story about a guy who was so libertarian that he ate silica gel packets, and the silica gel packets made him believe that he was in a simulation.
@@johannesvahlkvist my main issue is this: ok so he's adding little meme references to make the video more entertaining, fine. but one of the references includes a severe medical side effect (believing he broke out of a simulation.) so the memes are bleeding into the actual medical report. that aint good
I'm glad he made a full recovery, it's nice to hear a happy ending o n this fascinating channel (each video gives me anxiety tho) I can relate to his frustration with the big corporations though, after he gotten psychiatric help, I think it would be best if he did some sort of anti corporate activism as a vent for his frustration, otherwise it's just going to make him even angrier.
"There is no simulation and no real world other than the one that he was living in." Just what I'd expect someone who doesn't want people to leave the simulation to say.
He wonders why he was stuck at the low level for 10 years. He may not have been silica appetite level crazy yet, but he was fucking crazy and exuded something that others obviously did not like.
Good thing I watched this. I haven't had a promotion in 11 years and everyone I know has had at least 5 in that time. I had an intern learning under me who left the job to come back 2 years later as a director, like 5 levels above me. I also do 3D printing as a hobby and have a ton of little silica bead packets. I must have been just days away from a silica bead breakfast.
Oh, so you're like 80% of other people out there, not getting a raise? I would recommend the beads with some cherry flavor, topped off with whip cream, and chocolate sprinkles.
Ask for promotion, if they say no, life will go on, if they will fire you, okay life will go on. But you have to ask for something you want if you don't get it.
I'm just going to say, there's no shame in seeing a counselor or psychiatrist if you're in distress. Also no shame in switching companies to try and improve your own prospects. Either one could have helped this man
This guy legitimately thought that the comic that showed the guy escaping the simulation because of a silica gel packet was a transmission from the outside world of what he must do
I admit, with our total inability to prove or disprove what happens after death, I have been curious too. Not curious enough to make the leap and endure the pain, but still curious.
Instead of being promoted in-house (same company) im surprised he didn't look for a better paid role elsewhere. Or even a side step. Sometimes shaking things up does wonders for your mental health rather than stay in the same place and routine and be in a rut...
I really wonder, as a doctor there must be times when you think to yourself "I studied for years and years and threw so much money into my education only to treat a guy who ate silica gel packets as a gotcha against big corporations" and just despair
@@Sashazurdefinitely the doctors who treated me back in 2023 were stumped by how a 20 year old who doesn't even drink alot of alcohol or anything ended up with acute pancreatitus and the fact they didn't find any gallstones blocking anything they couldn't explain what caused it

Morpheus told him not to tell anyone else how to get out of the matrix, that's why when he failed he invented that whole "my bosses are horrible story". In reality Morpheus appeared in his life and told him that to escape the matrix he had to eat silica gel, he just didn't eat the right brand of it.
As soon as I saw the title, I said "Oh no, this is NOT gonna end too well!" Surprised he actually recovered fully, but I hope he gets a good therapist.

I used to put a large amount of damprid in a sealed container with metal grate over it to dry mushrooms for preservation and later ingestion. Not the same stuff as silica gel, but similar in function. One time the mushroom came into contact with a lot of it when the grate got knocked off the stand, and got some of the damprid powder on them. A friend of mine ended up getting one of these damprid pellets in his mouth despite my efforts to clean the mushrooms. He said it burned his mouth really bad.

When you say he made a "full recovery," I hope that included finding a good therapist.

I infer that means the same thing as the local TV station saying the victim is expected to be OK. I rather be not OK everyday.

This one is interesting in that the only real damage was in his mind. Mental breakdowns are serious too, good to be reminded really. Poor guy.
Yeah, hopefully he got some help and quit his job for something else. Nowadays, the typical way to get a raise in corporate is to join another company. Sad and annoying, but true.
@@ratchetguns In America it is anyway. Yeah a new job is a must but won't be easy after that. Maybe he needs to change career!
He hated Capitalism and tried to get away from it. But its America and I'm sure the bill from the hospital and hmo followed him home. I thought it would be a hipster trying to make a political statement with silica gel instead of a case of mental illness. That'll show the those greedy Capitalists.
The correct term is “Psychotic Episode “
You r so rite. I thought mental breakdown was not serious until I saw this.
I thought something bad was going to happen, but seems like the biggest issue was his mental state. Thanks for the information about silica gel!
Morpheus: "Neo, forget red or blue pills, just eat these 25 packets of silica gel"

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Actually the pill was just a large silica
Just have a few hundred of the tiny white ones instead.
Haha
This is exactly the kind of video that would be made to stop people from eating Silica Gel and exit the simulation.
This is some serious big brain time... But I'm too much of a smooth brain to try 😔
Nah I snack on these tasty crustations all the time they are always falling out of the boxes at work I unpack. I love when I get an extra-sized one mmmmmmmm tasty. Good with a little water to be healthy.
Thank you!
It's worse out here, the food was much better on the inside.

In pottery you see, we clean up the little streaks of clay on the tables as we work because once that clay dries it becomes like powder and because of the silica in clay it’s is not very good to inhale. If you shouldn’t inhale silica, don’t eat it.
Microcrystalline silica (quartz), of which there is usually several percent in clays can be dangerous to inhale so it is important to take care with this. Dessicant silica is amorphous though, the molecular structure is basically random, and it shouldn't present a silicosis risk. It's still advisable to avoid breathing dust though. Generally naturally occurring silica is the bad stuff to inhale, even fine sand is a risk, silicosis is bad!
This is crazy, literally crazy. This poor dude, he felt alone and unwanted, can’t obtain anything, felt like it was a simulation. Freaked out one day and wanted to come home to be with us and be like us. Very sad.
This is the problem with viewing certain types of success as a measuring stick for worth of a person or success as a whole.
Comparing ourselves with others is fraught with issues either way because it can go away in an instant with a health crisis etc. High values, character and love are what make people successful- not what the corporate industry etc promotes necessarily. In fact corporate values and rewards narcissistic people who actually make their corporations workplace sick--they haven't realized this yet on a large enough scale to make any difference. These people eat nice guys like him for breakfast, lunch & dinner.

I think this explains why he never got that promotion he wanted so badly.
He didn’t get out of the simulation tho
i find it weird that chubbyemu adds meme stuff to the story with only a note about it in the description. for a while i was wondering how he knew so many specific details about each case, then i realized the only true part is the actual medical parts. this guy didn't eat the packets to get back at corporations telling him what to do. the real case was probably a suicide attempt, which isn't quite as funny
@@fruitypeebils every medical story you'll ever read will be completely anonymised. you cant start talking about anything that could make it recognisable
@@johannesvahlkvist im just saying that as an average viewer, i assumed that there was a real story about a guy who was so libertarian that he ate silica gel packets, and the silica gel packets made him believe that he was in a simulation.
@@johannesvahlkvist my main issue is this: ok so he's adding little meme references to make the video more entertaining, fine. but one of the references includes a severe medical side effect (believing he broke out of a simulation.) so the memes are bleeding into the actual medical report. that aint good
“Parents, keep in mind what your kids are eating. You don’t want them exiting the simulation on you.”
lol, I just found that funny 😂
"Not again, This is our third child this week
He slips some humor in every now and then.
I'm glad he made a full recovery, it's nice to hear a happy ending o n this fascinating channel (each video gives me anxiety tho) I can relate to his frustration with the big corporations though, after he gotten psychiatric help, I think it would be best if he did some sort of anti corporate activism as a vent for his frustration, otherwise it's just going to make him even angrier.
"There is no simulation and no real world other than the one that he was living in."
Just what I'd expect someone who doesn't want people to leave the simulation to say.
Cue the Twilight Zone music

KC: "I’m ready to escape the simulation and join everyone in the real world!!"

🤣🤣🤣
yeah, sounds like an angry, crazy guy. not the type that generally gets promoted
That's a perfect display of drive and dedication if I've ever heard it!

"KC is a single dad, presenting (index finger gesture) to the emergency room, with acute unalive-syndrome."

*Facts*
38000 ate silica gel in 2009. 34000 were children. 4000 fully grown adults ate silica gel.
The packet: DO NOT EAT
KC: Well this is totally cereal
KC = Kellogg's Cornflakes
Looooool
Did he think it was grits? LOL
Silica Packets = Red Pills
Lost it at: “parents, keep in mind what your kids are eating, you don’t want them exiting the simulation on you” looooool

My toddler ate some. Poison control said nbd. And it was nbd...I think the amount matters.
I they actually said it lolla
Lolss
Laughing out out out out out out loud
"... he poured it in a bowl of milk like it was cereal and ate it, and this tells doctors everything they need to know"
That he was insane of course.
He wonders why he was stuck at the low level for 10 years. He may not have been silica appetite level crazy yet, but he was fucking crazy and exuded something that others obviously did not like.
Or maybe he WAS sane then until not getting promoted drove him silica eating crazy
At that point he should have to wait for the less stupid patients to be helped.
but the gel spoke to him so it is okay yes?
...or intensely stupid.
Poor man got stressed out.. That was self harm and maybe at one side he wanted to end his own life.
Or he just wanted to exit the simulation
& he pretended to be crazy so that he wasn't embarrassed
No he literally said he was infuriated at the packets telling him not to eat it
i think anyone that would eat that much of a toxic chemical due to the fact that they were "speaking to him" has some big mental issues as is..

Hi Patchy
So he's crying silica beads?

Damn, this guy was really set on sticking it to Big Silica.
Well big silica sticks it to people with all those dildos they manufacture. Amiright?

I was about to eat 25 packs of Silica Gel, thank you for the providential timing of this video.
It's common knowledge that one should stop at 24.

Good thing I watched this. I haven't had a promotion in 11 years and everyone I know has had at least 5 in that time. I had an intern learning under me who left the job to come back 2 years later as a director, like 5 levels above me. I also do 3D printing as a hobby and have a ton of little silica bead packets. I must have been just days away from a silica bead breakfast.
That's odd bro, let's chat about why you haven't progressed? :) I'd love to help
Oh, so you're like 80% of other people out there, not getting a raise?
I would recommend the beads with some cherry flavor, topped off with whip cream, and chocolate sprinkles.
Ask for promotion, if they say no, life will go on, if they will fire you, okay life will go on. But you have to ask for something you want if you don't get it.
I don‘t get why people want to get promoted in the first place. You will have more responsibilities and more stress.
Hope you're fine now buddy?!
I'm just going to say, there's no shame in seeing a counselor or psychiatrist if you're in distress. Also no shame in switching companies to try and improve your own prospects. Either one could have helped this man
Man eats 25 packs of silica beads - makes a full recovery.
Man eats slightly old Spaghetti - dead.
Never anger the old Spaghet
Humans are weird like that... some people can fall out of an aircraft and make a recovery, others shatter like glass from tripping over a pebble

This guy legitimately thought that the comic that showed the guy escaping the simulation because of a silica gel packet was a transmission from the outside world of what he must do
Chubbyemu posted that! He was the bill gates all along!!!!1!!1! (this is a joke dont yell at me)
I admit, with our total inability to prove or disprove what happens after death, I have been curious too. Not curious enough to make the leap and endure the pain, but still curious.
It's not a real story, more of a what-if based on the comic you mentioned.

Looks like not promoting this guy was a good decision.
that is standard operating procedure for major corporations. it's politics to get promoted, not work accomplishment based.
Conversely, this wouldn't have happened if he got promoted. Guy was trying so hard to play the game but never got any result. You'd have snapped too.
@@catsozen hmmm
Instead of being promoted in-house (same company) im surprised he didn't look for a better paid role elsewhere. Or even a side step. Sometimes shaking things up does wonders for your mental health rather than stay in the same place and routine and be in a rut...
Maybe some aspects about him that made him un-promotable also made him rage eat silica gel packs. Poor decision making could be one.
I really wonder, as a doctor there must be times when you think to yourself "I studied for years and years and threw so much money into my education only to treat a guy who ate silica gel packets as a gotcha against big corporations" and just despair
Most doctors have likely seen weirder things and they’ve all definitely seen sadder things.
You should talk to the doctor that got a gerbil out of my ass.
@@Sashazurdefinitely the doctors who treated me back in 2023 were stumped by how a 20 year old who doesn't even drink alot of alcohol or anything ended up with acute pancreatitus and the fact they didn't find any gallstones blocking anything they couldn't explain what caused it
@@Sashazur😂he got a "cylinder" stuck in a plastic tub full of mashed Banas
and just refused to say the truth and just kept saying it's a cylinder
"There is no real world other than the world he's living in" sounds like what the simulation would say to keep me from exiting it
So... are you saying this universe just appeared out of nothing? :D
Maybe the default state of everything is that something must exist
Chubbyemu: "yeah it's okay to eat silicon dioxide, nothing happens".

Morpheus told him not to tell anyone else how to get out of the matrix, that's why when he failed he invented that whole "my bosses are horrible story". In reality Morpheus appeared in his life and told him that to escape the matrix he had to eat silica gel, he just didn't eat the right brand of it.

I used to put a large amount of damprid in a sealed container with metal grate over it to dry mushrooms for preservation and later ingestion. Not the same stuff as silica gel, but similar in function. One time the mushroom came into contact with a lot of it when the grate got knocked off the stand, and got some of the damprid powder on them. A friend of mine ended up getting one of these damprid pellets in his mouth despite my efforts to clean the mushrooms. He said it burned his mouth really bad.
