Here are five of the most incredible survival stories I’ve come across during my career in medicine. Phineas Gage survived a tampering iron that passed through his head. Aron Ralston survived having removed his own arm to escape a bouldering that trapped him in a canyon. Julianne Koepcke survived after she fell out of an airplane and crashed into the Amazon jungle. Michael Cassidy survived an accident on his motorcycle thanks to groundbreaking balloon technology. Loenid Rogozov survived after he performed an appendectomy on himself. Let me know down below if there are more stories of survival I should take a look at!

The fact that man had a whole metal rod go through his brain like that and he didn't immediately die. May actually be the very thing that erases all doubt in my mind about God
i cant do blood donation to america im in autralia
You forgot William Lawlis Pace. A man who got shot by his brother as a child and survived. He lived the rest of his life with that bullet in his skull…
I'm glad I'm able to donate blood, with my blood type many people can benefit from it. Since I'm O negative! Didn't know you could donate every 2 months tho, in my country it's every 3 months
1:40 we read about him in my ela class i thought it was cool
I can't imagine having no choise but to cut your own arm off that mustve been super painfull and gross
There is that one guy on youtube who got in some accident and got half his body removed , from the stomach down there is nothing
wow😮
Imagine falling from a plane into the Amazon Forrest and surviving then going to hike to find help just to be eaten by snakes or other animals living there 💀😭 glad that didn’t happen to her lmao, that would suck, I think I would have died from anxiety of being all alone in the jungle with poisonous insects and snakes 🥶
Can you make a part 2? It was a great video!
Did yall really have to add those sound effects when aron brokw his arm off?
The guy that got a pole through his head probably had no pain jit happened so fast to him
Fun fact in the 1900s in Britain when you had a headache they put a hole in your scull 😅
I live in Utah and just imagining falling in between a boulder like that…
how would they survive that
I feel so bad for Aron 😢
Hi Dr. mike I want to love your video’s
We need a freak accidents part 2
There was a guy who lived his whole with a hole in his stomach in the 1800s
phineas gauge: evan from fnaf vibes*
7:17 michael cassidy: WAIT WAS WILLIAM NEARBY?
Now me braking my leg is not Even that bad😂
You obviously did not watch the movie or even really hear about it because you would have known he had to hike 17 miles until he was found and he broke his arm first and then cut through the joints
Bro one person cut off his own arm and I'm scared if cutting my own toilnails what the heck
If I was older I would donate blood but I’m to young
0:22 are we gonna ignore uncle Adolf was on the plane too?????
what does appendix do
Okay but tell me why i wahced thia at 4k?
The first one is fake all time there’s no way that you can survive that so it’s fake
I had ipendisites when I was 7 yrs old
Hey the guy with a stick in his skull was in stranger things,that’s cool.
My grampa donates lots of blood
Im sorry I don't believe the gage story. We have mri machines. Etc new tech for medicine but people die of not serious but serious injuries people die in car crashes. Etc but in 1800s with no good tech. And a pole through the entire skull at high speeds without passing out is not possible
9:33
8:03 “And summoning a health helicopter
I’ve giving blood for blood work and it was actually painful for me, is that normal? I even passed out when I went back to the lobby
This is nothing they literally can fall from space itself n survive they can fall from the heavens an survive majority of folks on this earth not even humans once they find out tho loool
I THINK the most worst pain ive experinced was like in india there is a festival called diwali where you urn firecrackers so there was a flame one which shoots up a high stream of flames but it backfired and exploded on my hand! the pain was excruciating it was like having a white hot knife and cutting your fingers which which were made out of titanium and walking on broken glass and still today 2 years after the scar is still on my hand
Always give 100 % except when donating blood by Brooklyn boone 2023
