Related to the upside down roller coaster: When I was nine, I rode one of these with my two older sisters at the fairgrounds and it stopped like this for five minutes or so. We were all freaked out, but it became really scary when me and my sisters realized that my seat belt was not tight enough across my body so I began slipping. They struggled to hold me up and the entirety of everyone on the ride were screaming for the operator to bring the roller coaster carts down because I was in danger of falling to my death. The operator had stepped out and was nowhere to be seen for that five minutes. Eventually the ride was brought down and everyone got off. I remember so disoriented and scared my sisters brought me back to my parents. I don't remember what happened after that, but I kind of hope that the operator was fired.

I gave CPR to a bird many years ago. It fell into a water bucket and was floating motionless in the water. I took it out, held it upside down by its legs and gently squeezed (as in CPR) it's "chest". Water poured out. After a few minutes the bird revived and after another few minutes it flew away. I often wondered if the little guy survived or maybe got pneumonia and died. Whatever happened it was a very long time ago.

i recently found a dying duck. It was in the water and struggling to keep its head over the water. At first i assumed that it was sleeping (i have almost never seen a duck sleep or learnt about them so i wouldn't know) so i left it. I tried turning it over after a bit but it just went back. I thought something was wrong so i brought it on land and gave it cpr. Later on, others had seen what happened and called some people over. They took it away in a towel and (hopefully) it survived.

I currently work in a mosquito research lab in the department of UF Entomology. Mosquitos are attracted to the carbon dioxide in our breath. Interestingly, mosquitos are attracted to those with a higher metabolic rate (which explains why some people are basically mosquito magnets). Carbon dioxide is also a popular choice for various mosquito control devices and many use dry ice for this reason!

Yes, mosquitoes are attracted to sweat, body temperature, pregnant women, drinking alcohol and certain chemicals like lactic acid, high metabolism, high carbon dioxide.

Regarding the gummies section: it's also true for melatonin gummies. Multiple brands were tested and found to contain way more active ingredient than what their labels promised. The active ingredient breaks down the longer the product is on the shelf, so they overdose the product so it stays potent enough to work. This is especially problematic since there are melatonin gummies specifically for kids. Giving them a few milligrams more than you think you're giving them might not be that dangerous, but there have been several cases of small children getting poisoned by eating an entire bottle. Chubbyemu even has a video about that subject. I get the supplement makers love for gummies--promising better absorption than pills or capsules--but they just seem like a really risky product given that gummies were originally candy. Whether it's gum drops, gummy bears, or sour patch kids... that's what kids think of when they see them and chew them, right? Of course, if the child is old enough, you can teach them the importance of knowing the difference. But what if they're not old enough to understand that conversation? What if they're curious, anyway?

6:00 Just want to say for this segment, these machines could be incredible for someone like me, who wants to tone my stomach and have the benefits of doing crunches, but i literally cant do them because i had scoliosis as a kid and had surgery where they placed rods in my back, i physically cant bend my back forward like most peiple can because of the rods. For some reason i can bend it backwards more than i can bend it forward. Ive tried bending the way you would for crunches, but literally can't due to the rods keeping my back straight. So for other people that have similar thing restricting them from being able to do crunches or other similar exercises, those machines would be really helpful 😊

Doctor Mike I grew up on my family’s dairy farm for my entire life. My family milked cows from 1977 until 2023. The entire time I had unpasteurized milk and I swear it is so much better than pasteurized milk. It went through a filter and then was in a temperature controlled tank that constantly stirred it. I miss it so much and wish it wasn’t illegal to sell raw milk. I would buy it in a heartbeat. ❤

I'm not a mosquito-ologist (lol) but I remember coming across theories that mosquitos are more attracted to O+ blood, and to people who are larger or exercising, because they're breathing out more carbon dioxide and following trails of elevated carbon dioxide plays into how mosquitos track down a target.

7:05 Mosquitoes are more attracted to people with blood type O. They come with an interest in carbon dioxide, high-contrast clothing worn, the bacterial population on your skin, and the infrared rays emitted from the body.

Not a mosquito scientist, but I have strong swelling reactions to mosquito bites (concerned about developing a more severe allergic reaction) so my doctor and I have been looking into ways to make me less likely to get bit. Pheromones, blood type, stress, and diet can all play a role in the smell of your sweat, which can attract more mosquitoes. Citronella in lotion or soap, long sleeves and pants, eating more garlic, and adding a vanilla extract perfume (not sweet smelling fair warning) has helped me. These solutions don't work for everyone, but they've helped keep down bite frequency while we try to figure out my immune reaction to the bites. My experience and solutions are all North American based, and it's possible the species of mosquitoes in different environments may react differently. Stay safe and hopefully keep the mosquitoes away!

A couple of years ago, around 2019, I started losing an extreme amount of weight - going from 120 to 100 lbs in about a month, all the while eating constantly. I just knew something had to be wrong. Finally my blood work showed my blood chemistry was way off - similar to someoe who had severe eating disorder. I had a small growth on my pancreas, luckily, non-cancerous, that was removed. However, the remaining part of my pancreas was still not doing what a pancreas does. I was still losing weight, until I was down to about at my lowest 85 pounds. I was started on TPN, 24/7. There was a insertion in my upper arm with a catheter that ran close to my heart. That's where the TPN was administered. I was on this for about six months, at home. I was told that this type of insertion is almost impossible to keep clean or sterile in a normal home atmosphere. So of course, after a couple of months, I came down with sepsis. Back into the hospital. After being on the TPN 24/7 for about five months, I was switch to only 12 hours a day. When I finally started gaining some weight back, we went to first TPN every other day and then every third day until I could finally get off of it. That stuff really saved my life.

@@foam3132 From what I know there is simply inconclusive evidence and lack of research into the subject for us to answer that, but the current tesis is leaning towards no, as there is simply lackluster evidence of this being the case. However, apparently having recently ingested a beer or something sweet, being pregnant, sweating or even just being in a group of people does actually increase the mosquitos attraction towards you. All but the last can be explained by the body odors you produce, like sweat having lots of acids that mosquitos like or how pregnancy alters hormone levels and therefore the body odor. And the last one is due to the higher CO2 density in the air, thusly letting the mosquitos know that there's living things, probably with some suckable blood, nearby.

3:37 To be fair, I've noticed a huge change in the taste of fruits these days. I've always washed my fruit exactly the same since I was a kid. For some reason I noticed the same very strong flavor present on all of my fruits and vegetables. It made it so I couldn't actually eat them because it made me lose my appetite. My wife started washing them with baking soda added to the water and letting it soak for a minute. The flavor was gone. It just tasted like fresh fruit. I'm convinced there's been a change in the pesticides being used and I was tasting that (or my pallet developed more for some reason) and washing with baking soda removed that extra funk from the pesticides.

Environmental health and entomologist here. Mosquitos are attracted to various things based on the type of mosquito and where they fly. If they are the ones that are near the upper half of your body, then they are attracted to your breath, specifically the carbon dioxide. If they are the ones that are biting near your knees or feet, then they are attracted to the smell of your body. They are likely confused and trying to find a water source to lay their eggs in. If you are a smoker or nicotine containing products, then they will be less likely to be attracted to you. Nicotine is a natural insect repellent.
