Honestly, I could see it getting repetitive. Heart attack Heart attack Gun shot Stabbed Crushed in Car accident Heart attack Crushed in Car accident Ooooh caulk embolism. That's a new one.

@@Blasted2Oblivion I used to watch a show called 'Dr. G: Medical Examiner' and that was basically her reaction to someone who'd died of a silicone embolism. Some poor unfortunate paid for black market injections of silicone for booty enhancement. The doctor was like, "Huh, I didn't know you could die that way. Interesting."

@@tuvelat7302 I can only imagine the grim sense of humor people in that job develop.

they've seen it, they usually spell caulk different though. And it is usually only in a show called "genital hospital"

@@tuvelat7302 Was that guy a fresh graduate? People die of fat embolism from legitimate lipoinjections. Exact same process, just different material.

With all due respect, do you seriously think that the morons who wrote something as unimaginably stupid as this scene have EVER actually used a caulk gun in real life? You know damn well what kind of person wrote a script like that and you also know that those kinds of people couldn't do manual labor if their life depended on it. The idea of them doing home improvement work and using a caulk gun is laughable. A not-insignificant percentage of these people end up having to buy new cars at 60,000 miles because they had absolutely no idea that you have to change the oil in an ICE vehicle, so they drove their car around on the original oil for the last ten years until it turned to tar and grenaded the engine.

Agreed: these are the people that call a handyman service to replace the batteries in their smoke detectors.

Also, I've never been able to keep my tip clean: they find a random gun in an alley and jam it in his neck... if the toxic chemicals in the caulk don't flat line him, the infection certainly will!

You should never share caulking nozzles, kids, even if your friend says they ran it under the faucet. Also make sure you only use store-bought caulk and not something your friend brought back from their Spring Break trip out of state.

@@johnnytyler5685 right?

well, the caulking will be moved swiftly to places the smallest blood vessels, where, being thicker than blood, it will get stuck. This will rapidly cause the patient to die as it blocks bloodflow to heart, lungs, and brain. On the bright side. the bleeding will then stop as the heart won't be pumping anymore....

How about expanding foam? That stuff sticks to everything! We had the windows replaced right before our honeymoon, and they missed a spot, so I thought I'd quick do it before we caught our ride to the airport... all of my honeymoon pictures have a dob of expanding foam that I got on my chin. Took two weeks before it came off! But seriously, that was on the outside, not something that you want on the inside!

There is similar looking stuff that will seal in sub 60 seconds, in flowing water. Water safe silicone. I keep tubes of it here beside my aquarium. It'd seal as quick as shown, but it definitely wouldn't be coming out during the surgery like they did. It has warnings to double glove for a reason.

Given I once put a drop of super glue on a still bleeding cut on my thumb and ended up with a thumb covered in blood *and* glue, nothing good

😝

I'm not 100% convinced that would have led to any worse of an outcome... especially applied with the level of skill they seem to have.

Also maybe showing what happened to their patients. "He died from chemical poisoning." "You...tore this lady in half by moving the vehicle while she was still impaled in it." "This lady died from a neck wound because you tried to perform a tracheotomy on the wrong area." "This girl has a fish hook stuck in her mouth, and brain damage from oxygen deprivation because you did nothing to address her lack of breathing." "Explain to me one more time why you took OFF your protective gear to go deeper into a dangerous vehicle?" "WHY DID YOU BUILD A BOMB OUT OF A WATER HEATER?"

There was a comedy movie in which Sandra Bullock tried to do the whole pen-in-the-windpipe maneuver on someone having anaphylactic shock. As soon as she made the cut, the wound flooded with blood, she couldn't see anything, and ended up just making the problem much worse. The EMT chewed her out for thinking it was a good idea, and I think there was at least a reference to Practicing Medicine without a License. It's bad when a comedy is more realistic than a drama.

That's just Seinfeld

@@jameswoodard4304 coincidentally the Good Samaritan law from the end of Seinfeld actually would have protected her from the charge of medicine without a license

Effective yes, but irritating as F! Just go get the stitches!

@@wilfdarr lol true. I have only every used it on surface wounds where the edges of the wound are very straight so you can easily pinch the wound close.

All those years of gluing things to other things as a child have finally paid off!

I can understand using superglue to temporarily seal up a wound if you’re a good hour or so away from a hospital so the person stopped bleeding out. But if it’s on a limb, a tourniquet would be better and less painful.

somehow 50% of my calls seem to fall under the "other" code on our tablets anyway, so this is no different.

I like using 2 stage epoxy....less sanding.

@@pure-blood17 use clear epoxy so people can see inside the wound.

"I found a suture right here!" _holds up a severed foot with 8 stitches in it_

At that point no sutures. Compression bandage on one side only (using the absorbency to contain gushing) and plugging the wound site with a finger is the longshot but smarter-shot left in these situations.

The bleeding would just be under the skin at that point, surface wounds are not like deep penetrating wounds. A wound like that you need to basically stick your finger in the hole and hope the sinking ship gets to the doc before it sinks. Watch demo ranch's video on his 50 cal exploding to see what these clowns should have done.

@@backyardrebel2149 "As seen on TV" seal!

You can't get sued for doing emergency first aid in most states, even if you do something wrong. Although THIS should be murder, especially if that person is supposed to be a medical professional.

The real proof that they've never used a caulk gun is that they found one that's already open, and still dispenses caulk!

I've never used one before either, but even I can tell that's not how any of that works.

they could try using a zip tie as a tourniquet. Not sure if it would be better below or above the stab wound. Maybe above to try to keep as much blood in the brain as possible.

Or actual 5 year olds

My friends and I are building a two-car garage as a workshop for wedding present. Feel free to stop by and watch a _Live Action_ episode. The bride has a standing bet that at least two of us go to the ER. We have air tools. Her confidence is high. Even so, she married into the group.

Giggling at the thought of her doing up her bathroom and getting through dozens of tubes, all the empty ones piling up. She's wondering why she's getting through so many, nipping back and forth to the local DIY shop. Husband comes home and looks at the receipts and does his bollocks.

@@SimonWoodburyForget It'll stick to basically anything for the most part. But "this works on tiles" is not something that has any relevance in the medical field. She'd be better off with a staple gun. Hell even super glue. Or you know, just stuffing something in the wound and calling for help.

Seriously who the fuck did these dollar store show writers think would be fooled by this? Not home depot dads, not women cuz sooo many of us actually work in healthcare. WHO is this show trying to appeal to? Literal farm animals??

omg do you remember that girl on tik tok who redid her bathroom like 47 times? this is her.

I can be pretty sure what it will do. Get stuck blocking the smaller blood vessels in all your important organs leading to a fairly rapid death. On the bright side, the bleeding will then stop fairly quickly once the heart is no longer pumping.

Memento Mori, my friend.

it will kill you quickly (blood clots but silicone) or it will kill u slowly if ur not lucky (crap's toxic lmao, also less vital blocked veins and necrosis) or it will kill u kinda quickly? (how tf are they gonna fix that in the hospital? seems they give him like another 5 mins to live in the BEST case scenario. Might not split off but just burn and irritate and stuff. Oh and hes *also* still bleeding out a lot) it will probably really hurt too...

@@Gaaaaaame yep.

Not a doctor but I can tell you what would happen. A loose mass in your bloodstream will eventually get stuck in a smaller blood vessel. I'll assume that his carotid artery got injured. In this case it could end up flowing towards the brain and cut off blood supply, causing a stroke. If it ended up in a vein instead, it could also flow towards his heart and lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism. Though the blood they showed looked more like he injured a medium sized vein. Nothing any medical professional should be panicking about.

I dunno man, the Chinese restaurant down the street microwaved a dog just fine.

It's like if someones airways closed up and the doctor just stabbed them in the chest with a knife so they could breathe.

Actually, microwaving probably wouldn't do anything. People think it makes stuff explode but in reality most microwaves short of an industrial grade lumbe treatment facility wouldn't have the power to penetrate your skin. Even then the most it would do is give you a mild burn.

@@Captain-Kidding 2.4 GHz microwaves penetrate to muscle tissue, and from what I've seen the burns seem to involve substantial nerve damage after a few seconds. You won't explode, but 44C is hot enough to cause burns.

@@Captain-Kidding I think they were referring to the lady who microwaved her poodle to "dry" it and killed it

On the bright side the bleeding will stop rapidly once the heart is no longer beating...

That’s not Jugular that’s a carotid artery injury, and if it did embolize it would go straight to his brain not heart but in this situation it’s not likely at all for it to embolize.

Ah I assumed it was the jugular because if it were the carotid blood would be spurting out pulsatile and far; this wound, though bleeding fast, is oozing steadily like a large venous bleed would. Though I admit I haven’t watched the show so I don’t know if the writers intended to write this as a carotid bleed.

@@minutemanmedic4143 There is no way that's the carotid. That's definitely venous blood, both in colour, and in the way it's slowly oozing vs quickly spurting. That said, with the obvious lack of medical knowledge by the writers, it's anyone's guess what they were actually trying to portray. They probably thought it was the femoral artery, not that they would have known what that was called...

@@eirianerisdare80 look at the location on the neck, it Should spurt, but this show is super innaccurate.

Great idea! I could use some cash....!

I think it's a legitimate idea. 🤔 I'd guess with so very bad examples like this, we wouldn't even need to do the action to sue. 😏 Anyone know a good lawyer?

If the show EXPLICITLY says at the beginning to not repeat what you see then in theory they can show the stupidest stuff and be protected. But I'm no solicitor.

In real life, true story, read it first in my dad's medical magazine (Medical Economics, I think). Guy masturbated in the shop against a belt during lunch break, got a bit too distracted and leaned in. Resultant trauma had him scrambling for the ceil tile stapler, and he closed the wound at great cost in pain. Finally went to the ER with a horrible infection, refused to allow a female in the room, and told his story to the male doctor. Dropped his pants to reveal as ugly a mess as anyone ever saw and was whisked into surgery. For complete details from the doctor himself.... www.snopes.com/fact-check/suture-self/

I saw one (horrible) paramedic show where in the first episode the medic does open heart massage on a patient (who of course lives because of it). In that episode the person at least got told off by their supervisor, but I can tell you in real life a couple things would have gone differently: 1) The patient would not have survived because of it, possibly despite it, but not because of it. 2) The practitioner wouldn't have just been told off, they would have had their license suspended, their job terminated, and have been at high risk for jail time.

@@Green__one but, but... open heart massages worked in my anime video game!

Seriously. With all the stuff my husband tells me happens at work, you really wouldn't need insane made up nonsense like this to have a dynamic show.

in theory they try to make it so outlandish your average person would know better than to try. Problem is... idocracy is a documentary in motion and we are getting more and more people who fail to realize these situations are horribly fake.

thing is, that would have been a a better solution, than stopping a foreign none stirle clocking matter into a person blod stream. At least the screw could act as a seal til someone with working briansells could come along 🤣

That would have been a concern had they been spreading it on the surface, but she has the tip right inside the hole and is injecting it straight into the veins. It still won't likely plug that hole. But it WILL plug a whole bunch of smaller blood vessels in important organs.

I recommend watching Bondi Rescue, if you haven't already. It's a reality TV show on Season 15 about the lifeguards on one of the largest public beaches in the world (Australia) and there's enough natural drama that they don't really throw anything else in. The occasional contrived inter-lifeguard drama just gives me a chuckle since they're all obviously good friends. Only downside is that it's real life, and you can't save everyone, so there are always 1-2 really heavy episodes per season, but it's usually intense and light-hearted.

Real life would be rushing for 3 minutes on scene, and 45 minutes of paperwork and cleaning

In the episode, they had already had a batshit crazy plot - it was a two parter where the hospital staff was out for karaoke after a long day, and various staff members were drugged with some super roofie (I am pretty sure they described it as a super roofie). One of the people drugged was this nurse. He had been in that alley for over a day, btw. EDIT: Oh yeah, they were drugged because a bartender didn't like how people said doctors and nurses were heroes during COVID

I mean I assume smart people would stop watching this crap

The reality of real life emergency medicine is pretty boring actually. For every second of intensity, there's 5,476 seconds of "I took an edible and am scared! Give me a shot to fix me!"

Isn’t that apart of this exact same stupid episode? The midget diversity doctor and all, lol.

That’s murder, just, murder

And stabilize here is actually pretty straight forward. Apply direct pressure to the wound, that's all you can do as a lay person waiting for EMS, and it's actually surprisingly effective.

Yep,

Call 911 and put them on speaker. You're not gonna think very well in that situation if you're unprepared and they might give you some helpful instructions.

It was accurate in that they always contacted Doc Sideburns at the hospital with a report on conditions before they actually did anything. That way they got clear instructions.

Extremely, far as I am aware. The incidents had to have actually happened and be in a real logbook, for instance, and since it was promoting a whole new kind of first responder, they wete pretty careful.

Agree a million percent!

This is incredibly dumb

Oh don't worry, it wont get pushed out since she injected it straight into his bloodstream. It would probably get pushed up or down and cause a fatal embolism but that's for the surgeons to worry about.
