My brother has deadly food allergies and when my family was informed of this when he was around a year old, the doctors gave me a fake epi pen for me to practice on him in case I was the one who needed to administer it. He’s 3 years younger than me so I was around 4 when this happened. It was very valuable for me to know that even as a young kid, I could save his life if I ever needed to. He is now 20 and has never needed to use one but he still always carries one.
When working as a camp counselor, we had to practice using epi pens on each other with fake ones before we started work every year. Never had to use it, but I did have to lecture a parent that their kid couldn’t be in my class after telling me she was allergic to cats and dogs. I worked with farm animals, and the kid was sneezing like crazy a few yards away from the animals.
I actually don't mind having to wait in the waiting room for my cardiologist, because sitting anywhere in the waiting room is within spin range of 3 Pokestops. Very convenient grouping of Pokestops.
@desperate need of scotch hell yeah, wen I take my mom for her check-up in a hospital, I don’t mind the waiting at all! So many poke stops, Gyms and ghost type Pokémon.
I just remembered that when the hype for pokemon go was at it's peak, there were people promoting using some item (I didn't play, so I have no idea what it was) near pediatric hospitals to somehow help the children that had to stay there.

My 4yr old niece once asked me for some of my almond milk and I explained to her that it wasn't milk, it was nut juice. So she asks "can I please have some nut juice?" I said "you'll have to ask your dad" she goes to the other room and I hear "WHAT?!" I've never laughed so hard in my life!! 🤣🤣🤣
That epi-pen joke reminds me of this one: My father passed away yesterday because he lost a lot of blood in the car accident and we didn't know his blood type. He was such a great dad, even though he was dying he kept telling us to be positive.
Yesterday I was walking by the street and some medical academy used dr mike in their poster. He is like the definition of a doctor in most people minds
The oxygen to go really helped my Mom when she had pneumonia. She waited days to get treated so I bought her some of it for the car ride to the hospital. Maybe the oxygen itself wasn't helpful, but the slowing breathing down and taking controlled breaths was. Made her feel like she was in control of the situation.
The real question is: Does it have a higher O2 content than the air? If not. It's just placebo. And that can work. If yes. Then Dr. Mike was mocking it for all the wrong reasons.
@@Unethical.FandubsGamesIt claims 95% oxygen content so, if that's accurate, it's much higher than in the air. It would likely also have benefits at high altitudes for people who have not adapted to those altitudes.

Part of what drives independent research for therapeutic alternatives is fear of the condition and the standard of care. Also provides a sense of control where the patient feels its been stripped away.
Independent research is fine, but you have to be able to determine what you're looking at and the quality of the source. A lot of people struggle with both, but they're especially bad at the second one.
And also the fact that doctors gaslight and abuse you. It took years to get diagnosed with my systemic, degenerative, and incurable Autoimmune disorder and I had to research and demand specific doctors and tests bc doctors would rather accuse people of being a drug addict (despite clean tests) than actually look for sources of their illness or pain. if I didn’t do my own research and advocate for myself I would still be in Dr Biegel’s office having my veins blown and blood stolen off their porch while they drain my wallet.
That canned oxygen really helped me when I went camping in the mountains of Colorado. I got hit with altitude sickness and the only thing that lessened the symptoms was breathing in that pressurized oxygen.
Dr. Mike is so good because he leads with example. He doesn't just say "eat onions because they are round and good for your health". He also ate The Onion live on camera 🤣😜
As a scuba diver who has had a close call with the bends. That oxygen is gold. For those who don't know oxygen is the first treatment given for the bends. I dive out in cold isolated lakes, so an ambulance can take up to an hour or more to get to my team and me. Those bottles help buy us some time.
Sure, but you shouldn't abuse it. The way this is sold leads to people doing 3 situps, inhaling a bottle of pure O2, doing a couple situps, inhaling another bottle, repeat ad nauseam (literally).
I live in Colorado where the air is thinner than other places, so when I go to a concert and see musicians perform who aren’t from our altitude, the well prepared musicians come with different oxygen boosting capabilities to help combat the altitude. I’ve seen nebulizer type devices, to these cans of boost. Yes they can be abused by idiots but to completely dismiss it by saying there is oxygen all around. Idk.
@@Eromadad88also in Colorado, we keep some on hand for visitors from out of state. My partner has pretty severe asthma, too, so a bottle of pure oxygen and their inhaler are an excellent addition to a hike.
Same. I live in Colorado Springs and those things can come in handy for short-term relief at high altitudes, to give people enough time to get back down to lower altitudes.
@@Eromadad88 I moved from about 600 ft elevation to Colorado, and ended up with bronchitis in my first couple weeks. I really wish those things had been available then, I was having a lot of trouble breathing. Closest I found was a huge one mean to have at your table at a convention, so people visiting from sea level would stick around your booth so they could breath.
@@RanchMonarchHe told us that you can't surf because you can't balance without your head, he even said can't surf because no brain is the easy answer He expanded the joke
I just broke my arm (upper humerus). The doc I saw thought it would be good for me to get surgery, but i wasnt too sure. I told him i was gonna get a second opinion. He then brought in an older colleague who looked at my CT scan and said my arm would heal well without surgery! I would have never of asked for a second opinion without your videos, so thank you doctor mike!
Dr mike, the boost o2 is intended to be used at high altitudes where oxygen is at a much lower density. Granted I’d never buy that particular brand personally, but when flying at high altitudes in a non pressurized environment or mountain climbing at a high altitude, the canned o2 can be extremely helpful and even life saving!
I can vouch for this, moving from Florida to Colorado. Sea level to 10k is brutal, I was altitude sick for a week. I bring air anytime I go up mountains now because the air gets too thin I'll pass out. As bad of a Mel Brooks joke as "canned air" is, it's a necessity for some activities where the air is thinner.👍
But that can is so small, how much could it really help? Unless you're gonna carry 100 of them with you. An air tank for diving is like the size of a person, that's like a can of febreze
0:12 (i learned this in middle school) first of all, you yawn because your brain is noticing your breathing slower or not enough so you yawn to take in more air. but to get to the point, yawns are contagious because when you see another person yawn your brain freaks out thinking that YOU yourself aren’t getting enough oxygen, causing yourself to yawn 👍

He's sitting there reacting to memes that someone else collected for him to look at, and then someone edits the video. The effort is all done by someone else. Give them appreciation Thank you Dr Mike's team..
@@vullnetbajrami736 I don't dispute that. I'm simply pointing out that for Dr. Mike, these videos are low effort. The equivalence of us watching his video. The effort is made by others. He's the pretty face.
Isn't the Oxygen to go thing normally for people that go up to places with thinner air, but aren't accustomed to it? Like if you visit your aunt that lives in a town in a large mountain, then if you try to do the same exercise that you normally do, you will get out of breath much faster due to less oxygen in the air. These would basically let you get a boost of oxygen to keep you going more comfortably. It's a really niche product thought, since the people that live up there are already used to it and don't need it, and so it's only useful for visitors or newcomers. It's useless for anyone else anywhere else.
That reminds me of a story I heard Tom Cruise told in a show. He went on a tiny plane with a friend. But they encountered issue and they were only 2 oxygen mask. Tom Cruise and the pilot took the mask. Tom Cruise's friend fall asleep. He woke up when they returned to the ground.
I need oxygen wherever I go so carry portable oxygen with me. I have use of only 1 lung and my O2 is always 50 or lower no matter where I am. I also have to sleep sitting up.
8:02 reminded me of an old Buddy Hackett joke, Dentist to female patient: "Ok, I gotta give you a root canal." Patient: "I'd rather have a baby." Dentist: "Well make up your mind, I gotta adjust the chair."
Dude- it would be so crazy to have Dr. Mike walk into an appointment for therapy with you. It would be such a challenge to stay unbiased because hes so awesome… i’d probably have to refer him to a therapist who doesn’t know him (at least not an avid fan) for the best care, but i would be so sad that i would have to.
7:45 I think that could be in reference to what is happening with the teacher shortage. A lot of places are offering speed programs or simply not requiring degrees for teachers. It seems like a problem in a lot of unappreciated professions right now.
1:19 I'm very familiar with this thing. I used to live together with someone who had diabetes for many years. He passed away this year because he had no one around to inject it into him. We only lived together for 4 years, but he's been like an older brother to me. And he only became 21 years old. I've attended the funeral. I cry almost every day, but that was one of the few times in my life when I cried for hours without being able to keep the tears inside like I usually do when I'm in public. I miss him.
Dr. Mike probably won’t see this but I just want to thank him. I’ve always had an interest in healthcare and medicine but Dr. Mike fueled that interest even more. Next fall I will begin my first semester of pre-med and I’m incredibly stoked for it. I hope to be as great a doctor as Dr. Mike some day.
7:15 last week I had an 11:30 appointment for a check up. As of a couple days before the appointment, they had no other booked appointments. The doctor arrived at 12:03, the check up lasted 11 minutes
I once had to stop seeing a GP because no matter what time of day I scheduled an appointment, I would have to wait at least an hour before I even got back to the exam room where I would have to wait even longer. It was consistently ridiculous.
My family GP would cancel our appointments right as we were sitting in the waiting room. Happened so many times. Eventually, we stopped going because he never had time to see us and would reschedule only to cancel at the last minute once again
2:19 I forget if that's an actual line, but that doctor had enough sarcasm I could see it being one. (It's been awhile since I've watched all the way through Voyager). Star Trek's always done some of their best work with their doctor characters.
Dr.Mike, I was quite upset that as you were mentioning all of the professionals who work in acute rehab, you forgot the nurses. I am a registered nurse who spent 13 years working in acute rehab with stroke patients head injury, quadriplegics paraplegic and Guillain-Barré by the 1930s after four years, I was qualified to take the exam to get my certification and I have my certified rehabilitation registered nurse, or otherwise known as CRRN it’s a nationwide certification and it’s recognized by the board of registered nurses. It was a very fulfilling career I had to retire from bedside nursing at 40 and I became a case manager, and worked another 25 years and still working part time now doing chart review for Medicaid don’t forget that’s nurses we really help the doctors out a lot and I loved working with the patients watching them get to the height of their abilities to get back to taking care of themselves. Love your show. Thanks so much ❤
As someone who wants to become a doctor but deems themselves “too dumb” to be a doctor, the little pep talk about intellect and being a doctor was really helpful. It’s nice knowing I’m not alone in feeling like this and that even the greatest of doctors can question or have questioned whether or not they’re smart enough to become one. Also, Dr. Mike is like that dad that you tell a joke to and then he turns it into a lecture haha
5:30 brought me back to when I found an x-ray picture of my lungs on my folder, it looks exactly like case b. She said I had pneumonia when I was a baby. The brown folder where it was saved said the x-ray was taken when I was 5 year old
You actually can't determine which arm is in the x-ray at 2:53 because the x-ray slides can be flipped before putting them in front of the light, which is why x-ray technicians have to label them L or R, so without a visible L or R then you can't know which side it's from
Hey Mike! I thought yawning had to do with mirror neurons and the Broca region… Your comment about it actually made me go explore a few different studies and most of them say there is no specific activity in the Broca region when people watched another person yawn. They say it’s somehow an automatic response. Just wanted to say that I love watching your videos because it often pushes me to go look for good sources of information. So I always learn something new and am able to read and get new points of view on things :)
Meme reviews are my favorite. Love your current hair and facial hair. I repeat, pickled watermelon rind is totally a thing. Try to buy a jar of it online, or look for a recipe.
My fave thing about Mike is that he explains the joke, like it may not be even that deep medically, or the answer is obvious, and Mike be like ‘well, actually..’
7:05 - Those foods have all those things Dr. Mike mentions. The pizza and burger have tomatoes, the cake has nuts, the burger has onions as do some pizzas.
6:20 Patient called ugly: I mean second opinion from another doctor. The doctor gets another doctor. 2nd doctor: I'm sorry. He's right. You ARE very ugly.
I just saw the documentary on the New Zealand volcanic eruption of 2019. Could you go over how to treat volcanic ash/burn injuries and what happened to the body during this?
That one was so sad! This would be a good topic, though. It might be worth a collab with a volcanologist to discuss ways to maximize chances of survival and minimize injuries in a pyroclastic flow, including typical scorching hot air flows, violent surges, and steamy eruptions like the one on White Island (I forget its real name). It would be interesting and horrifying to know why so many victims succumbed to burns so quickly after remaining conscious for minutes or hours. What caused the internal parts of their bodies to shut down?
Ok so... with the oxygen... idk how it works for exercise because I don't do that, BUT back when I lived in CO, we always suggested newbies to get some because it helped with altitude sickness. They need more oxygen because they're not used to the thin air. Then after moving away from CO, I once had to buy some when I took a road trip to MD to help with altitude sickness so........ 👀😬🙃
Except they’re in Arizona, and it’s advertised for post workout recovery, not for altitude sickness. Arizona has high spots but not as much as Colorado does. Unless you’re planning on hiking up some mountains or traveling to Northeastern AZ, it’s just a waste of money.
The spider clearly won't be the worst reason a crash happened, but it's unique enough that the first responders will never forget it and tell the story.
I know what you mean - I once crashed my car because I had to sneeze really hard... (Up to then I didn't believe otherwise healthy people could actually die from a common cold nowadays...)
@@jhdix6731 More than once I've realized how dangerous it can be to drive with allergies, sometimes I have to force myself to open a bit my eyes when the sneeze is slow coming or I have a hand totally wet and have to so some downhill turns.
4:35 Think they're talking about a drugs scientific name, not the reference name. Like how Xanax is actually Alprazolam or Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid.
The portable oxygen thing is for people climbing mountains who might have trouble catching their breath due to the lower oxygen content at high altitudes.
@@seigeengineDo you buy hoodies, Jackets, Shoes and it tell you where you put the clothes on? No. Because it’s self explanatory just like the Oxygen mask
We kids would play with that coil toy thingy while waiting in the waiting room at the eye doctor. So fun. I eat the rind of a watermelon. It's amazing.

I really wish those things had been available then, I was having a lot of trouble breathing. Closest I found was a huge one mean to have at your table at a convention, so people visiting from sea level would stick around your booth so they could breath.
8:28 the fact that he felt the need to explain that you can't surf without a head is sad, both for us and him
It's an Onion article. They are a parody news site
@@tandemdwarf745we know, but the fact he had to explain that it was a parody by telling us the medical knowledge is the sad part
@@RanchMonarchHe told us that you can't surf because you can't balance without your head, he even said can't surf because no brain is the easy answer
He expanded the joke
11:26 Mike completely ignoring that the guy already cloned himself
Lol he missed the clone joke about "That makes two of us." Completely over Dr. Mike's head. 😂❤
I just broke my arm (upper humerus). The doc I saw thought it would be good for me to get surgery, but i wasnt too sure. I told him i was gonna get a second opinion. He then brought in an older colleague who looked at my CT scan and said my arm would heal well without surgery!
I would have never of asked for a second opinion without your videos, so thank you doctor mike!
Dr mike, the boost o2 is intended to be used at high altitudes where oxygen is at a much lower density. Granted I’d never buy that particular brand personally, but when flying at high altitudes in a non pressurized environment or mountain climbing at a high altitude, the canned o2 can be extremely helpful and even life saving!
I can vouch for this, moving from Florida to Colorado. Sea level to 10k is brutal, I was altitude sick for a week. I bring air anytime I go up mountains now because the air gets too thin I'll pass out. As bad of a Mel Brooks joke as "canned air" is, it's a necessity for some activities where the air is thinner.👍
ooooooohhhhhhhhh now i get it- but WHY is it being sold at a regular store?
@@everyonesplace1267 I have no idea other than asthmatics? Or people on oxygen machines maybe....
But that can is so small, how much could it really help? Unless you're gonna carry 100 of them with you. An air tank for diving is like the size of a person, that's like a can of febreze
@@stephsaguudefan1753 there is alot more than you think in there
I just like how nerdy he is, such a good way to make his videos informational and entertaining
0:12 (i learned this in middle school) first of all, you yawn because your brain is noticing your breathing slower or not enough so you yawn to take in more air. but to get to the point, yawns are contagious because when you see another person yawn your brain freaks out thinking that YOU yourself aren’t getting enough oxygen, causing yourself to yawn 👍
11:46 Instrctions unclear, filled a human with trash and gave them cpr.
Uh, ok
dont make that mistake again
6:47 my daughter got a knitted hat with a green pompom when she was born, the pompoms were coloured to show the babies heath, green was for healthy and red was for babies at higher risk
Wow that kinda sounds sad
Mine got a knitted hat that was a pumpkin born in October instead of the normal hospital one they give
5:10. Hearing Dr. Mike using 'irrespective' rather than 'irregardless' made my whole day.
10:40 I love how boost oxygen is just O’Hare air from the Lorax
I can't wait until I get married and my wife gets pregnant so when she says "Noah, I'm pregnant" I can say "Hi pregnant, I'm DAD!!"
Loved the alphabet soup, so true with scribbles for doc writing, ramen noodles perfectly illustrate 😂😂😂 .... I had a family practitioner who typed everything out on computer and printed it off because he knew his handwriting was horrible
Wow
I didn't get it
Same thing with doctors signatures. My uncle is an ER doctor and his signature is just one big scribble
I worked in a pharmacy for a year and a half, and we had a handful of local doctors who had very neat handwriting. It was bizarre.
@@stephsaguudefan1753it would be. I just wouldn’t feel right if a doctor wrote legibly
@@jasminespencer2872 basically, kids write more neatly, so alphabet soup, ramen noodles is more wavy, and since we're talking about handwriting, its basically about how bad doctor's handwriting are. hope u understand
Dr Mike is the human embodiment of medical dad jokes 😂
“…to the entire medical office who plays with it after.” 😂 makes it sound like the office workers end their day by playing with that toy.
7:13
Ah yes, healthy food.
Healthy: Tomatoes, Lettuce, Cheese, Meat for protein, Bread
So why the heck are burgers unhealthy-
See, nothing is unhealthy if you put your mind to it
The meat has a lot of grease which has a lot of saturated fats.
Extremely high fat and salt content. Both are things we need, but many people eat way too much of them. That's the simplest answer.
8:49 yes, the reason you can't surf without a head is because you lack the balances in your semicircular ear canals.
The only reason
1:08 why did i just imagine Dr. Mike sobbing while eating watermelon rind
I love how he corrects everything despite how obvious it is. Also how he focuses on ears rather than the brain when missing a head
3:51 - I think Mike missed the whole 'Pharmacology punch' :)
Business as usual, lol
I am actually a pharmacist 😂😂😂 and that’s so fkn true pharmacology and pharmaceuticals and anything related to pharmacy is so fkn hard 😂😂😂
No he said that the school was punching them right back
😆
The "purchase one mental health" legit made me LOL.
7:15 I see he avoided saying apples. like a doctor
Can we take a moment to apprecete how much effort Dr Mike puts into his videos
no
@P!nned By Dr Mike... you’re not doctor mike lol😂
He's sitting there reacting to memes that someone else collected for him to look at, and then someone edits the video. The effort is all done by someone else. Give them appreciation
Thank you Dr Mike's team..
@@notahotshot he's a doctor he works 40hr a week of course he has no time to make videos
@@vullnetbajrami736
I don't dispute that. I'm simply pointing out that for Dr. Mike, these videos are low effort. The equivalence of us watching his video. The effort is made by others. He's the pretty face.
Isn't the Oxygen to go thing normally for people that go up to places with thinner air, but aren't accustomed to it? Like if you visit your aunt that lives in a town in a large mountain, then if you try to do the same exercise that you normally do, you will get out of breath much faster due to less oxygen in the air. These would basically let you get a boost of oxygen to keep you going more comfortably.
It's a really niche product thought, since the people that live up there are already used to it and don't need it, and so it's only useful for visitors or newcomers. It's useless for anyone else anywhere else.
That reminds me of a story I heard Tom Cruise told in a show.
He went on a tiny plane with a friend. But they encountered issue and they were only 2 oxygen mask. Tom Cruise and the pilot took the mask. Tom Cruise's friend fall asleep. He woke up when they returned to the ground.
I need oxygen wherever I go so carry portable oxygen with me. I have use of only 1 lung and my O2 is always 50 or lower no matter where I am. I also have to sleep sitting up.
This is the issue. There are very limited applications of this, yet they're trying to market it to a general audience using bullshit.
@@seigeengine I mean I dont hear any crazy claims(bs) from them
Ski resorts in Wyoming and Colorado sell oxygen for people are coming from sea level. Some people say they feel a “high” and use it for that.
11:12 it's winter, breathing through my nose isn't convenient
2:32 I'm glad Dr. Mike explained this, because I was never gonna get that on my own.
Dr. Mike figuring out colors made my day 2:37
8:02 reminded me of an old Buddy Hackett joke,
Dentist to female patient: "Ok, I gotta give you a root canal."
Patient: "I'd rather have a baby."
Dentist: "Well make up your mind, I gotta adjust the chair."
How is giving him a baby connected to adjusting the chair
Can’t really make a baby with the chair sitting up instead of lying down@@justaguywhowantsomefriends2246
This joke is funnier than any of those memes
Dude- it would be so crazy to have Dr. Mike walk into an appointment for therapy with you. It would be such a challenge to stay unbiased because hes so awesome… i’d probably have to refer him to a therapist who doesn’t know him (at least not an avid fan) for the best care, but i would be so sad that i would have to.
7:45 I think that could be in reference to what is happening with the teacher shortage. A lot of places are offering speed programs or simply not requiring degrees for teachers. It seems like a problem in a lot of unappreciated professions right now.
I love how Dr. Mike is most often serious about the jokes, like me. I ruin a lot of my husband's humor because I'm so committed to being serious lmao
11:20 it’s for altitude where it’s harder to breath
Hearing Sam laughing from the background fulfills the meme video.. I love how Mike misses the punchline more often than not lol.
you copied two other people’s comment what the hell
1:19 I'm very familiar with this thing. I used to live together with someone who had diabetes for many years. He passed away this year because he had no one around to inject it into him. We only lived together for 4 years, but he's been like an older brother to me. And he only became 21 years old. I've attended the funeral. I cry almost every day, but that was one of the few times in my life when I cried for hours without being able to keep the tears inside like I usually do when I'm in public. I miss him.
He will always be with you. I also lost my grand pa to diabetes. And I know how you feel
Dr. Mike probably won’t see this but I just want to thank him. I’ve always had an interest in healthcare and medicine but Dr. Mike fueled that interest even more. Next fall I will begin my first semester of pre-med and I’m incredibly stoked for it. I hope to be as great a doctor as Dr. Mike some day.
That's awesome! Congrats 🎉
7:15 last week I had an 11:30 appointment for a check up. As of a couple days before the appointment, they had no other booked appointments. The doctor arrived at 12:03, the check up lasted 11 minutes
I once had to stop seeing a GP because no matter what time of day I scheduled an appointment, I would have to wait at least an hour before I even got back to the exam room where I would have to wait even longer. It was consistently ridiculous.
My family GP would cancel our appointments right as we were sitting in the waiting room. Happened so many times. Eventually, we stopped going because he never had time to see us and would reschedule only to cancel at the last minute once again
Oh, Dr Mike, you dropped the ball on the "Air to Go". Two words: cluster headaches
The canned oxygen is actually very useful when hiking at high elevations. It’s a little gimmicky, but it helps with altitude sickness
Dr Mike here looks tired, I hope he's okay ❤️
He's a busy guy: a full time physician, TH-camr, amateur boxer, he never seems to give himself a break :/
Ikr i came here to say that…i hope he’s okayy
2:19
I forget if that's an actual line, but that doctor had enough sarcasm I could see it being one. (It's been awhile since I've watched all the way through Voyager). Star Trek's always done some of their best work with their doctor characters.
Dr.Mike, I was quite upset that as you were mentioning all of the professionals who work in acute rehab, you forgot the nurses. I am a registered nurse who spent 13 years working in acute rehab with stroke patients head injury, quadriplegics paraplegic and Guillain-Barré by the 1930s after four years, I was qualified to take the exam to get my certification and I have my certified rehabilitation registered nurse, or otherwise known as CRRN it’s a nationwide certification and it’s recognized by the board of registered nurses. It was a very fulfilling career I had to retire from bedside nursing at 40 and I became a case manager, and worked another 25 years and still working part time now doing chart review for Medicaid don’t forget that’s nurses we really help the doctors out a lot and I loved working with the patients watching them get to the height of their abilities to get back to taking care of themselves. Love your show. Thanks so much ❤
10:55 I believe this is for hiking on realy tall mountains
I think he went over in another video why it was still bs, pretty sure it was the video where he reacted to medical products on Shark Tank
7:57 Snails hate coffee and it's harmful to them. Do not give your pet snail coffee or anything with caffeine in it. 👍
Keep the good work up, Doctor mike!
As someone who wants to become a doctor but deems themselves “too dumb” to be a doctor, the little pep talk about intellect and being a doctor was really helpful. It’s nice knowing I’m not alone in feeling like this and that even the greatest of doctors can question or have questioned whether or not they’re smart enough to become one.
Also, Dr. Mike is like that dad that you tell a joke to and then he turns it into a lecture haha
5:30 brought me back to when I found an x-ray picture of my lungs on my folder, it looks exactly like case b. She said I had pneumonia when I was a baby. The brown folder where it was saved said the x-ray was taken when I was 5 year old
You actually can't determine which arm is in the x-ray at 2:53 because the x-ray slides can be flipped before putting them in front of the light, which is why x-ray technicians have to label them L or R, so without a visible L or R then you can't know which side it's from
but that would assume that the doctor intentionally put it up the wrong way.
Doctor mike’s editor’s deserve an award.
Mike that ain’t the grim reaper, that be ghost face 9:17
Hey Mike! I thought yawning had to do with mirror neurons and the Broca region… Your comment about it actually made me go explore a few different studies and most of them say there is no specific activity in the Broca region when people watched another person yawn. They say it’s somehow an automatic response.
Just wanted to say that I love watching your videos because it often pushes me to go look for good sources of information. So I always learn something new and am able to read and get new points of view on things :)
1:45 that a river of apples
11:43 trashcan, suitcase, bag… anything🤣
8:54 Dr. is channelling his inner 'Mama Mia' complete with the hand gesture in regards to the 'art' if the meme😂
6:35 it’s never too late to start
Meme reviews are my favorite. Love your current hair and facial hair. I repeat, pickled watermelon rind is totally a thing. Try to buy a jar of it online, or look for a recipe.
10:27
Me, a med student, eating the "alphabet soup for doctors" while watching: 👁👄👁
Wiener
I think he sadly missed the joke that doctor handwriting looks like Ramen
My brother eats Ramon every day for lunch and I am waiting till he does something.
My fave thing about Mike is that he explains the joke, like it may not be even that deep medically, or the answer is obvious, and Mike be like ‘well, actually..’
7:04 Those he named are spherical not rounded like the ones in the picture! 😎
Who is already obsessed watching doctor mike videos
you can never get bored of it
Exactly 😂😂
11:05 the oxygen tank is for people that do mountain climbing because there is less oxygen at higher altitudes
7:05 - Those foods have all those things Dr. Mike mentions. The pizza and burger have tomatoes, the cake has nuts, the burger has onions as do some pizzas.
6:20
Patient called ugly: I mean second opinion from another doctor.
The doctor gets another doctor.
2nd doctor: I'm sorry. He's right. You ARE very ugly.
I just saw the documentary on the New Zealand volcanic eruption of 2019. Could you go over how to treat volcanic ash/burn injuries and what happened to the body during this?
That one was so sad! This would be a good topic, though. It might be worth a collab with a volcanologist to discuss ways to maximize chances of survival and minimize injuries in a pyroclastic flow, including typical scorching hot air flows, violent surges, and steamy eruptions like the one on White Island (I forget its real name). It would be interesting and horrifying to know why so many victims succumbed to burns so quickly after remaining conscious for minutes or hours. What caused the internal parts of their bodies to shut down?
0:32 "That's me all the time" A god taking pity on us mortals...
8:18 when i got the HPV vaccine i couldn't remember what it stood for so i just called it "human pepperoni virus"
Ok so... with the oxygen... idk how it works for exercise because I don't do that, BUT back when I lived in CO, we always suggested newbies to get some because it helped with altitude sickness. They need more oxygen because they're not used to the thin air. Then after moving away from CO, I once had to buy some when I took a road trip to MD to help with altitude sickness so........ 👀😬🙃
It also helps with asthma too. It helps you recover better than steroids do.
Dang my first thought was the lorax, maybe that says something about me
When covid started I once joked about bottled oxygen, lo' and behold
Same! Moved from Florida to Colorado, in the 10k range. Man I was Soo altitude sick till I found out about Air...
Except they’re in Arizona, and it’s advertised for post workout recovery, not for altitude sickness. Arizona has high spots but not as much as Colorado does. Unless you’re planning on hiking up some mountains or traveling to Northeastern AZ, it’s just a waste of money.
I crashed my dad’s car because of a beetle. ‘Permanent embarrassment’ perfectly describes that situation 😅
The spider clearly won't be the worst reason a crash happened, but it's unique enough that the first responders will never forget it and tell the story.

A Volkswagon Beetle?
@@jhdix6731 More than once I've realized how dangerous it can be to drive with allergies, sometimes I have to force myself to open a bit my eyes when the sneeze is slow coming or I have a hand totally wet and have to so some downhill turns.

4:35 Think they're talking about a drugs scientific name, not the reference name. Like how Xanax is actually Alprazolam or Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid.
7:52 as a snail owner, yes, and it's adorable
The portable oxygen thing is for people climbing mountains who might have trouble catching their breath due to the lower oxygen content at high altitudes.
Find me where on the marketing it says that.
I have to use oxygen 24/7. Some people do due to medical conditions.
@@seigeengine does it need to? We don't even know where this is being sold. It could be self-explanatory.
