I’m gonna let it sting me then sell my body
Sam Hurd lol
I’m thinking about selling my body, too. Without any venom in it even, I’m sure it’d sell for a lot. My body’s in fairly decent shape; I’m a handsome guy and have a nice face with not a single pimple, and I eat healthy and exercise and brush my teeth three times a day. If I sell it now, it will fetch a hefty price and I can move into a cheap, unhealthy ugly body that nobody wants. With all that extra money from my previous body, I could buy an amazing house. Who needs to have a good body when you have an amazing house?
Hey, in fact, I know someone, (who is currently) an old man; he’s had his current body his entire life, and is a heavy smoker. His body’s all worn out and he says he feels lethargic all the time. He said that he thinks it’s time for him to get a new one. He’s putting it up for sale on Craigslist.

i wish he'd explained why they don't purchase venom from the general public. for most things medical, they need to ensure that it is safe for use, which can't be guaranteed when purchasing certain items from random sources. the way he said it makes it sound like they just don't want the competition.
Because the general public IS an untrusted "random source" lol

@@zionadam6425 it takes them out of the wild and probably milks them until their end of life
@@subscriberswithvideoscha-kz9cq heard of breeding?
@@trygveevensen171 yes
So your claim is invalid. Scorpions can be bred in captivity. It’s been done for the pet trade, so it can be done for venom. Also, you have no evidence proving that scorpions are milked to the ends of their lives. There are many cases of snakes being released back into the wild after their venom is collected, so it’s not out of the possibility that scorpion-milkers can be merciful too.

LUKE R By then, there is probably a cure out there for cancer that would cost less work and be more efficient. So it’d be pointless if you do.
Sargeras explain scientifically why? Because technically the cure for cancer is death.
@@AnhNguyen-lx5pc "probably"
Isn’t cancer just the general term of millions of different things that can happen and everyone’s cancer is different? If that’s the case there probably won’t ever be a cure but there’s nothing to stop us from trying.

@@karimsoliman8546 They can use the Venom or even poisons to determine the antidote or make them.
I have been bitten by a huge scorpion before, and I nearly died. It was so painful the whole time, i couldn’t stop screaming. It also depends on the type of the Scorpion and the size.
Scorpion: *stop or I'll sting you with my venom which hurts like hell!*
Human: that's....why I'm here
Growing up in the middle east, I was stung by a scorpion twice!
Wish I'd seen this video 30 years ago
PS: It feels like an intense burn, lasts for about an hour. They rushed me to a hospital both times and gave me an anti venom shot..in my butt. Then sent me home to finish playing with my friends. Not a big deal
You are legendary for being stung by a scorpion TWICE. LoL. Joking

Real talk, i have owned a scorpion. Not a deathstalker, just a run-of-the-mill emperor scorp. I really hope to become a pro scorpion handler and get one. Not for the money, barely any people buy it, just because i love scorpions.
It's been 3 years, gotten stung yet?
Imagine being rich for selling your fears’ liquid lmfao
Hey swiftie!😊
how much your liquid worth for

"It's definitely gonna ruin your day" (while talking about getting stung by a scorpion)
Well that has to be the understatement of the year.
Am going to start milking scorpions so i can become rich
Good luck with that, 1 gallon would take years to get
One does not simply start a venom extraction lab without government approval.
Joshua Fleming he could sell it on the black market
Lone Wanderer bruh, even less than a gallon still is a lot of cash
@@joshuafleming6206 one does not give a shit about the government
Because pain is a subjective and emotional experience it's hard to Guage. I concur, I've been bitten by redback spider 3 times and the first 2 times didn't bother me at all but the 3rd time the pain was maximum overdrive and felt like 10 Bee stings at once.
ME: Takes one home..
ME: Am a MILLIONAIRE!
Them: Yes 😃
We got a lot of scorpions where I live and they tend to get into the house as well. One day when I went to school, I felt something poking my toes in my worn out shoe. I thought it was grass or the shoe itself. I went 4 hours with that feeling through every class, until I got to lunch. I pulled my shoe off, tipped it upside down and a little scorpion fell out.
Scared the shit out of me, but my buddies couldn't stop laughing!
Just use Mermaid Man's belt to make a really big scorpion and tah dah. You're a billionaire! Just make sure you switch it to Wumbo first.
spongebob joke XD
i see you to have studied wumbology
Him: Ithink I hurts
Me:Of course it will hurt
This is something that the expense is justifiable. Unlike caviar or truffles which are expensive just because we make them rare.
I wonder... is it really that hard to synthesize this venom in a lab? If I was a biochemist, I'd explore that idea. Is that not possible?
I think it would be quicker to breed Scorpions that give off my Venmo like we been doing to chickens and cows. But as far making synthetics sometimes it's not perfect or lacks something we can't replicate like horseshoe crab blood like we just can't make human plasma either ahhhh how we need nature for most things lol
The whole point is to research it. How can we synthetically produce something we are still understanding?
They have and its already in phase II of clinical trials
In our contry we have a lot of scorpion come here

bless those scorpions🙏 for helping those ppl
because i definitely want scorpion venom
Henry Westphal watch the *WHOLE* video
Dat Bro get the *JOKE*
It's not just 🦂 but also 🐍 and some other animal venom is very valuable... Just watch a video
if you want anti venom you need venom.
cause the way antivenom is made is by injecting non lethal amounts into a animal to train their white blood cells to attack the venom.then you harvest those white blood cells.
it is also used in a lot of medicines for example some really strong pain killers are made from venom.
> Gets stung.
> it hurts
> but I feel richer
I used to own one of these. Very cool.
Why don't we grow more of these in lab?

Why wouldn't they be interested in buying at a discount? If someone has already gone through the trouble of collecting it, why not use it? Maybe a question of being concerned with it being contaminated, or just a regulatory/legal issue
Because they want to keep the prices artificially high
wait you have to do it one by one, I can already imagine an automated factory where the scorpions tail is always attached to a robotic arm that will do it like clock work and just collect all the vials after then profit 39 million :D
