My nan, who passed from Alzheimer's, was told in her 80s, but there was a rapid decline. When she was told, i was there with her, and she just looked at me, looked at the doctor, and cheerfully says, "that's okay, at least I'll forget the bad news." I miss that lady.
I used to work with Alzheimer's dementia patients. It's such a strange disease. One instance that sticks with me the most was a man was having a particularly rough day. He was agitated and was kicking others during lunch. So he was fed first and put out in the hall where he screamed for like five minutes. I happened to walk by and he grabbed me and wouldn't let go. He was sobbing at that point and I was trying to calm him down. He looked up at me and completely changed. His face, the way he sat, everything changed. Like this poor man was suddenly understanding the world around him for the first time in years. He asked me why he was acting this way. He usually spoke nonsense, so I was pretty surprised. I told him it was his illness and that we know he isn't mean or bad. He can't help the way he acts, and it'll be okay. He told me he didn't want to act like this anymore. He didn't want to forget his children again. He told me he just wanted to "go" peacefully so his family didn't have to see him like that anymore. And then he just reverted back. He started screaming again. He died not long after that. On a lighter note, there was another guy who couldn't remember much. But he could tell you everything about his military experience and how he escaped a POW camp. His name was Dudley Riley and he was a WW2 hero. He was a cool guy.
Thanks for sharing. I'm my fwp's caregiver. Today was an apology and self agitation day, but I never know if he will snap and become verbally abusive, frustrated with himself to anger, in tears over the way a baseball game played out, or just asleep for 16+ hrs. My ocd rabbit hole is that I'll think he's sleeping, and he'll have died while I was 50 ft away in my bedroom watching YT or playing a video game. I feel like I have to check on him every 2-3 hrs or less. I just watch him sleep. He doesn't smile or laugh anymore, and "I love you, Dad," is met with, "I know," or "Thanks." The cats stay with him sometimes, my youngest has become his minder/guardian, but he doesn't even hardly pet him anymore, and he adores cats and really loves ours, but it's like he has forgotten how to love.. Most people have no idea what it's like to watch a very intelligent man, who you respect and love very much basically lose his spark. He's still functional, but he's a shell of himself. I hear far worse accounts from some in my caregivers group, and it's both sad and scary. Caring for a loved one with a memory disease strips you of your life and can leave you bitter, angry, burnt-out, and broken. I cast no shame on those who have to put their loved ones in care homes, because it's hard for even specialized nurses to deal with, but when you're an untrained family member trying to handle that job 24/7 when you don't have that degree of separation or years of training it can destroy you. Posthumous thanks to Mr Dudley Riley for his service. I will count him among the honored ones I never had the chance to meet.

My mom has multiple sclerosis, which is a beyond brutal disease imo. Watching her lose herself is devastating. She loves to sing, and listening to her singing voice get softer and less controlled over time is just...it brings me to tears
Me, a diabetic, would say that T1D is terrifying. Like- one of your organs just stops working, every meal could cost your life, you can go blind, you can easily develop sugar lumps in your skin that cause your skin to literally start r0tting. I mean, thats pretty scary. Also, i was diagnosed when I was NINE. Yeah, in my opinion, T1D should have been on this list, T2D is also terrifying, but T1D is more common for CHILDREN, which is just... Wow.
Yeah, just getting prediabetes warning signs were more than enough to make me change my lifestyle completely to avoid getting diabetes. While T2D tends to be far less serious compared to T1D, it's still a horrible thing to have to live with.
As a kid I was obsessed with researching diseases. This has brought back those memories but in a new light; it's not just morbid curiousity but now I can tell how terrible these diseases can be
@@sherekakatsuki9280 I've seen several documentaries on the condition, and there seems to be one very important doctor doing they reserch necessary to find the cure. He should be Frederick Kaplan if you want to look him up, I remeber him mentioning in one of those documentaries that they are relatively close to finding a cure since they have found the gene responsabile for FOP. If I'm wrong let me know.
ants can get infected by a species of fungus that basically takes control of the ant and makes it attack its colony, there are also many different types of this fungus that each target a different insect, hopefully the fungus never evolves to infect humans.
i used to work at an Assisted Living Facility (from now on will be shortened to ALF), and specifically i worked in the memory care unit and was dementia care certified, as only a /server/. i can explain more on why there's really only women in memory care units if anyone wants, but anyways, the women i worked with down there were AMAZING!! they were such kind souls, but for a lot of them, Alzheimer's was slowly stripping them away of their kindness. literally. there would be days where some of them, who normally were very cordial with me, would suddenly be cold and harsh towards me. there were other days where they would forget who i was and where they were, and would be terrified to see me. on top of it, none of them had STRICTLY only Alzheimer's, but also other conditions such as Wernicke's Aphasia. there was a day when one of the women, who was very quiet no matter what, was on the phone in one of the offices with her daughter. i remember cleaning a table near that office and smiling at the little jokes she'd make with her daughter, when suddenly, she bursts into tears and screams about how she knows she's going to die soon and how she keeps having nightmares of her death, only being able to see her family crying at her bedside and not being able to tell them that she's alright. it was mortifying to hear, and along with 2 CNAs, i quickly finished what i was doing and went into the kitchen to cry. people really don't understand how jarring and terrifying dementia (all forms of it) can be. it's even more jarring that there are families who refuse to accept the reality of their loved ones and severely mistreat the condition those loved ones have. please, if you have a loved one suffering with any form of dementia, do research on how to properly communicate and care for them. it's hard, but please don't make it any harder by taking the ignorant course many do in these situations. (thank you for bringing to light the struggles of alzheimer's bro, you're so real for this
9:10 Technically, you should always go to the doctor for any animal bites that break the skin; ESPECIALLY if it's an animal you don't know/ a wild animal. Better safe than sorry when rabies could be the outcome.
I was attacked by a dog, and when we went to urgent care to see if I needed stitches or anything, there wasn’t a “dog attack” category in the paperwork, so we wrote it in. Not two minutes sitting in the waiting room the receptionist jumps up and quickly asks if the dog was wild or had his shots. They had to go through hoops to get the dogs medical records, since he’d JUST gotten his rabies shots and my grandparents (the owners of the dog) didn’t even have the paperwork yet.
Ooooo diseases gotta be my favorite. From hearing about them, researching, writing my own for da little horror series, or just coming up with goofy or morbidly horrfying ones, diseases be on top of my list at all times. Can't wait to see what you cooked up here bro
I wholeheartedly agree about Alzheimer's Disease. I lost a grandmother to dementia, and my other grandmother has Alzheimer's and is currently living in a specialized nursing home for those with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. My grandfather is also living in this home, as he has rapid-onset dementia. My uncle on the same side also passed from early-onset Alzheimer's. Having so many people in my family who have had these diseases makes me terrified that I could be facing it in my future, as well.
I'm with you on that fear. My dad has Parkinsons, and I'm his caregiver. It is SO HARD to watch and care for someone you love who becomes someone else, someone unpredictable, and someone potentially violent at the drop of a hat. Someone who may hate you one moment and sincerely apologize for it the next, and you just never know what to expect. The stress ages you and indeed takes years off your life. I try not to worry as I'm chronically ill already, and my autoimmune diseases could randomly flare up any day and destroy my organs before I realize. Average lifespan after diagnosis for my major one is SEVEN YEARS, but that's likely due to it going undiagnosed until severe organ damage or failure. I seem to be in remission and don't need meds for it currently, but I'm a few yrs post diagnosis, and of course it makes me anxious. My body is pretty much a time bomb, and I just do my best to eat properly, take my meds, and keep my stress level as low as possible to reduce risk of flare-up. But again, Parkinsons caregiver, so worries about my own risk of memory disease, and the stress and depression. Tick, tick, tick...
tuberculosis is curable and preventable, the deaths usually have other things happening too, a family friend had it and now her lung capacity is lower but the cure itself wasn’t too bad
My grandpa had Alzheimer’s and the way we found out was sad and crazy. He was 76 and took his Cadillac to the dealership to get regular maintenance done to it, some way some how a sales men trucked him into trading his car in and buying a brand new Cadillac. So he got the car and about 1 month after having it ( he wasn’t driving it) he kept asking my dad why he wasn’t driving his caddy, and my dad was confused because it was my grandads car but he had forgotten that it was his and that he bought it. So he argued with my dad saying he didn’t buy that damn car, but the whole time he had actually paid it in full and completely forgot about it.
My great uncle had fop he was expected to live to 14 yet lived nearly to 30 before it killed him my grandpa still has a bunch of his 80s transformers in near mint condition still which is kinda cool
this video was so informative, i feel like when ever i learn something new in world history class you make a video with a piece of history i just recently learned about, like the bubonic plague
As someone who saw my grandpa die of Alzheimer's I can confirm it's terrifying. It's so traumatic to watch, I fear it so much... And by the fact I had cases in my family I could get it, I hope it's curable by then...
High quality samonella is terrifying. Btw i think this is the first time you have used this more expressive editing style, and i gotta say, its awesome
i was chased by a rabid skunk once. he was way faster than i thought he'd be. poor guy had peed and vomited on himself and was having small seizures. called animal control and they took him away. rip little man. you turned me into Usain Bolt for a sec.
To anyone else who may suffer from medical anxiety: Rabies can only be transmitted through saliva, thought it is a good practice to get rabies vaccines after any contact with a possibly rabid animal. Rabies can almost ONLY be carried by mammals. Fish and birds almost are completely immune to it, theres a single case of a bird (a goose) transmitting rabies - and im not even sure if it was confirmed to be rabid itself. Also. Rabies cannot last outside the body for longer then 20-30 minutes. Finally, rabid animals are extremely rare in north america, being more common in poorer countries that dont have animal veterinarian services for rabies vaccines for dogs and cats
@@MrMisterTbone1stThere were two waves of the Black Death, the second one being during the 1500s which. It was also around first during the 14th century, not the 12th. Here’s a bit of an article regarding plague doctors: “The Plague, or the Black Death, first struck Western Europe in 1348 and is believed to have wiped out around 50% of the world’s population at the time. The disease itself made a number of comebacks over the years, most notably in the 1600s. With symptoms ranging from a high fever, lumps around the armpits and legs, vomiting and painful spasms, death usually followed in 5 days. Medical practitioners at the time were wholly unprepared for such a virulent disease and no contemporary treatments were effective against it. There was little recourse but to hope you wouldn’t be next to be struck down. The title of plague doctor has existed since at least the early 14th century (we’ll be exploring a specific case a little later) but the outfit we know wasn’t devised until around the 17th century.” -Newcastlecastle.co.uk I don’t want you to think I’m disagreeing as plague doctors weren’t really documented until the 16th century, but I did want to correct some info :)
I love the new animation! Whenever Im at school instead of doing work I just watch this guys channel (he teaches me stuff more than school does tbh) Honestly for me, this guys channel is peak and one of the most interesting. And idk why but his voice just makes him sound like a very nice person in general, it sounds very kind and calming in a way
my grandma got the old age dementia, grandpa died with the diabetes dementia, the description of Alzheimer fits them both there are many ways to go coocoo before dying, human design is great
You really can tell that our brother has a huge heart.. The way he speaks in his vids and always remove us to look after ourselves or be careful or never do a certain drug. When i see my kids next thus channel will be show to them for education. Thank you bro. Den from Anonymous-Australia
My grandpa on my dad's side had Alzheimer's at the end of his life. He was a nice man, but I didn't get to know him very well since my mum wouldn't let me see my dad's side of the family out of spite when they broke up. He died when I was seventeen from pneumonia, but I was in foster care at the time, so I am glad I wasn't around to watch him deteriorating from the disease.
8:41 rabies usually does have a two to three month onset period but its also been documented in a dorment state, simply infecting the person but not showing symptoms for up to 10 years
Alzheimer’s (and dementia in general) scares the living daylights out of me. My grandpa had dementia (frontotemporal), and just hearing about it scares me like hell. I told my father if, in the case I ever get dementia, end me then and there. And I stand by that. I already have short-term memory loss, but I prize my long-term memories as a result. I can’t bear losing those, let alone losing myself. Sidenote: DO NOT LISTEN TO EVERYWHERE AT THE END OF TIME IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR SANITY. Also, thanks for saying ROUGHLY on the rabies part! People have survived it, but it’s exceedingly rare, and recovery is a struggle, requiring physical therapy and all that.
Something interesting about Rabies is how about a year ago someone lived through it WITHOUT the vaccine. They put her into a medically induced coma, and along with giving her various medications for her immune system and basic nutrients, she lived through it. She was the first person EVER documented to live through rabies after symptoms and no vaccines beforehand, which is an absolutely huge step in combatting this awful disease!!
*Me at age 19 with an incurable and painful chronic illness while he’s talking about how your health is all you have at the end of the day* Bro Seriously though, great video, very interesting and so well animated!!
I was WAITING for the Bubonic Plague to be mentioned all throughout the vid. I have a complete morbid fascination when it comes to that disease & have watched tons of essays/documentaries on it. I'm honestly obsessed with it + anything related to the Middle Ages as it's my fav time period. It's astonishing just how many people died from one single disease & I wonder how our current society would have fared against it. Really makes you appreciate the wonders of modern medicine & general understanding of disease & illness. I do want to make an important distinction with Bubonic Plague however: you may have heard of Bubonic Plague & Black Death as being synonymous with each other, but they are NOT the same thing! Bubonic plague is one single illness while Black Death incorporates three illnesses in one: bubonic plague, septicemic plague & pneumonic plague. The bubonic plague is PART of the Black Death but is not ALL of the Black Death. I will say bubonic plague does get most of the recognition, though septicemic plague & pneumonic plague were significantly deadlier. Just my inner nerd speaking. That being said, great vid! I've already heard of most of these diseases but it's always nice to have a refresher. Honorable mentions I would include are the Spanish Flu & polio as both had their own respective outbreaks in the late 1910s & late 1940s-mid 1950s respectively. I would highlight polio a bit more as it's similar in physical deterioration with those infected gradually losing movement, much like those with FOP. The Spanish Flu also definitely left its mark though & was deadlier + on a more global scale while polio was mostly in the US (I think you might want to factcheck me here). Anyway enough of my rambling, again great vid, you earned a sub! I love your vids discussing morbid & eerie topics, I love that kind of stuff :)
You’re absolutely right bro, but just remember that the lens in which you see the world is how you interpret it. Depression is a warped lens that doesn’t accurately represent the beauty of the life we get to experience. We’re here for you bro. ❤️
I knew a guy that couldn't move most of his body due to his condition. Sucked to watch him slowly die. They asked him if he wanted to be laying down or sitting down.
I'll be 30 this year, and I have a genetic predisposition towards Alzheimer's, for me. It's like living with a permanent timer in my head written in some language I can't read, I know it's going to count down eventually, I don't know when, but when it does I'm slowly going to lose myself. And that genuinely scares me, I just hope there's some medical advancement that can help me before time runs out
Ten years ahead of you Justin, but otherwise in the same boat. I lost my father and grandmother and there's that little nagging thought that I'm next. I haven't quite made my peace with that.
My first job was serving food in an old folks home and that’s fine but specifically, I was serving in a late stage Alzheimer’s, and dementia ward. I was 14 and simply not prepared to see the things that I saw. I did not realize that I was walking into a place that loved ones were scraping to find a glimpse of the loved ones that they’ve already lost. I did not realize that all the food I would be serving would be liquid. I’m not as scared as dieing to something like this as I am to watching a loved one waste away with it.
hey i have that water allergy! however i have a very mild case and im only affected by water through skin contact. i break out in little itchy hives. but they are bearable. so i still shower, go out in the rain, etc. worst part of it is when im sweating- i end up scratching my armpits and i look like im doing my best monkey impression.
Good video, although I'm surprised you didn't mention the "Milwaukee protocol" for rabies. It's like the ONLY shot once symptoms start showing, and it has worked atleast once.
There is actually vaccinations for Ebola, they were actually some of the first vaccinations using the mrna-method of immunisation, which enabled the sars-cov vaccinations.
I think the concept of being afraid of water when contracting rabies is more of a refusal to drink it. It's apparently extremely painful for the infected to drink water and after suffering that agony, they want nothing to do with it.
3:01 I wish I would've known that when I was younger, I wish I would've known I would have a stroke and become nearly completely disabled on my left side
The fact that you can be allergic to contact with water is absolutely insane to me... It's wild that it's possible to survive in spite of that kind of condition... 😮
ALS is terrifying to me. I can’t imagine what it is like to suffer from ALS. I also think having schizophrenia could be terrifying too. I have bipolar disorder and it can be terrifying. Sometimes you can’t trust your thoughts and all you can think about is ending your life. When manic, it feels like someone else is using my body and ruining my life. And all I can do is sit back and watch for days, sometimes weeks.
ok so apparently my husband grew up with a kid with FOP in France??? i was just telling him about FOP and he was like “is it known as the statue disease? a kid at my school had that. doctors didn’t know what to do, so the dad had a go-fund-me and everything. then one day he just died.” its funny how you remember things as a kid.
Great video! Just wanted to add a little something else terrifying...in the early days of the rabies vaccine you had to get something like 20 needles in (or around) your bellybutton! Talk about kicking a guy when they're down! Thankfully that is no longer the case.
I have a very chill teacher. He tells us personal stories and one stuck with me. He told us that his neighbor, an elderly manz had dementia and got into an argument with some kid. He said "If i was your ahe would beat you up" or something similar, and he thought the kid said it the next day and told the kid's momm I find Dementia to be terrifying.
I remember a student from my primary school that had aquaphobia, which was pretty hilarious and also terrifying when you saw him at the toilets or when being served a soup in the cafeteria, he would just scream and bolt it out of there. I cant imagine what his life must be like.

My mom has multiple sclerosis, which is a beyond brutal disease imo. Watching her lose herself is devastating. She loves to sing, and listening to her singing voice get softer and less controlled over time is just...it brings me to tears
I'm sorry to read this. Losing control of one's body, especially to that which helps us participate in our passions.. 😢
Me, a diabetic, would say that T1D is terrifying. Like- one of your organs just stops working, every meal could cost your life, you can go blind, you can easily develop sugar lumps in your skin that cause your skin to literally start r0tting. I mean, thats pretty scary. Also, i was diagnosed when I was NINE. Yeah, in my opinion, T1D should have been on this list, T2D is also terrifying, but T1D is more common for CHILDREN, which is just... Wow.
Yeah, just getting prediabetes warning signs were more than enough to make me change my lifestyle completely to avoid getting diabetes. While T2D tends to be far less serious compared to T1D, it's still a horrible thing to have to live with.
As a kid I was obsessed with researching diseases. This has brought back those memories but in a new light; it's not just morbid curiousity but now I can tell how terrible these diseases can be
Scary mythical creatures? Meh.
Diseases?... Sad and terrifying
Respect for everyone with Alzheimer, cancer, etc.

I was about to comment something but I forgot. I’m sorry. I have dementia
Luckly it seems like we are close to find a cure for FOP so let's hope the people effected won't have to suffer much longer
Are u sure about that? There is any article about that?
@@sherekakatsuki9280 I've seen several documentaries on the condition, and there seems to be one very important doctor doing they reserch necessary to find the cure. He should be Frederick Kaplan if you want to look him up, I remeber him mentioning in one of those documentaries that they are relatively close to finding a cure since they have found the gene responsabile for FOP. If I'm wrong let me know.
Yay!!!!
Not So Fun Fact: Rabies is the closest thing we’ll ever have to a zombie virus.
Ever? We don't know what the future holds.

ants can get infected by a species of fungus that basically takes control of the ant and makes it attack its colony, there are also many different types of this fungus that each target a different insect, hopefully the fungus never evolves to infect humans.
i used to work at an Assisted Living Facility (from now on will be shortened to ALF), and specifically i worked in the memory care unit and was dementia care certified, as only a /server/.
i can explain more on why there's really only women in memory care units if anyone wants, but anyways, the women i worked with down there were AMAZING!! they were such kind souls, but for a lot of them, Alzheimer's was slowly stripping them away of their kindness. literally. there would be days where some of them, who normally were very cordial with me, would suddenly be cold and harsh towards me. there were other days where they would forget who i was and where they were, and would be terrified to see me. on top of it, none of them had STRICTLY only Alzheimer's, but also other conditions such as Wernicke's Aphasia.
there was a day when one of the women, who was very quiet no matter what, was on the phone in one of the offices with her daughter. i remember cleaning a table near that office and smiling at the little jokes she'd make with her daughter, when suddenly, she bursts into tears and screams about how she knows she's going to die soon and how she keeps having nightmares of her death, only being able to see her family crying at her bedside and not being able to tell them that she's alright. it was mortifying to hear, and along with 2 CNAs, i quickly finished what i was doing and went into the kitchen to cry.
people really don't understand how jarring and terrifying dementia (all forms of it) can be. it's even more jarring that there are families who refuse to accept the reality of their loved ones and severely mistreat the condition those loved ones have. please, if you have a loved one suffering with any form of dementia, do research on how to properly communicate and care for them. it's hard, but please don't make it any harder by taking the ignorant course many do in these situations. (thank you for bringing to light the struggles of alzheimer's bro, you're so real for this
This is really sad, but i am intrested to know about why this seems to mostly effect women?

The progress in the video quality and in the animation in the last like… 6 months, is crazy!!!
9:10 Technically, you should always go to the doctor for any animal bites that break the skin; ESPECIALLY if it's an animal you don't know/ a wild animal. Better safe than sorry when rabies could be the outcome.
I was attacked by a dog, and when we went to urgent care to see if I needed stitches or anything, there wasn’t a “dog attack” category in the paperwork, so we wrote it in. Not two minutes sitting in the waiting room the receptionist jumps up and quickly asks if the dog was wild or had his shots. They had to go through hoops to get the dogs medical records, since he’d JUST gotten his rabies shots and my grandparents (the owners of the dog) didn’t even have the paperwork yet.
Actually great video, I am kind of surprised Epidermolysis Bullosa isn’t on the list though, it’s nicknamed “The worst disease you’ve never heard of”
Ooooo diseases gotta be my favorite. From hearing about them, researching, writing my own for da little horror series, or just coming up with goofy or morbidly horrfying ones, diseases be on top of my list at all times. Can't wait to see what you cooked up here bro
I wholeheartedly agree about Alzheimer's Disease. I lost a grandmother to dementia, and my other grandmother has Alzheimer's and is currently living in a specialized nursing home for those with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. My grandfather is also living in this home, as he has rapid-onset dementia. My uncle on the same side also passed from early-onset Alzheimer's. Having so many people in my family who have had these diseases makes me terrified that I could be facing it in my future, as well.
I'm with you on that fear. My dad has Parkinsons, and I'm his caregiver. It is SO HARD to watch and care for someone you love who becomes someone else, someone unpredictable, and someone potentially violent at the drop of a hat. Someone who may hate you one moment and sincerely apologize for it the next, and you just never know what to expect. The stress ages you and indeed takes years off your life. I try not to worry as I'm chronically ill already, and my autoimmune diseases could randomly flare up any day and destroy my organs before I realize. Average lifespan after diagnosis for my major one is SEVEN YEARS, but that's likely due to it going undiagnosed until severe organ damage or failure. I seem to be in remission and don't need meds for it currently, but I'm a few yrs post diagnosis, and of course it makes me anxious. My body is pretty much a time bomb, and I just do my best to eat properly, take my meds, and keep my stress level as low as possible to reduce risk of flare-up. But again, Parkinsons caregiver, so worries about my own risk of memory disease, and the stress and depression. Tick, tick, tick...
The fact that tuberculosis is not on here is crazy. It is such a silent killer and kills around 4000 every. Single. Day.
tuberculosis is curable and preventable, the deaths usually have other things happening too, a family friend had it and now her lung capacity is lower but the cure itself wasn’t too bad
this channel makes me feel good about all of the things I don’t have or haven’t experienced
My grandpa had Alzheimer’s and the way we found out was sad and crazy.
He was 76 and took his Cadillac to the dealership to get regular maintenance done to it, some way some how a sales men trucked him into trading his car in and buying a brand new Cadillac. So he got the car and about 1 month after having it ( he wasn’t driving it) he kept asking my dad why he wasn’t driving his caddy, and my dad was confused because it was my grandads car but he had forgotten that it was his and that he bought it. So he argued with my dad saying he didn’t buy that damn car, but the whole time he had actually paid it in full and completely forgot about it.
i love the way you explain things it’s very easy to understand and the fact you show remorse is very important
Great video!
Be sure to include prion diseases in the next edition: terrifying stuff!
❤
Oh Gods they are so scary! Memory diseases, prion diseases, and rabies terrify me the most!
You forgot being a Boeing whistleblower, currently has a 100% fatality rate
My great uncle had fop he was expected to live to 14 yet lived nearly to 30 before it killed him my grandpa still has a bunch of his 80s transformers in near mint condition still which is kinda cool
this video was so informative, i feel like when ever i learn something new in world history class you make a video with a piece of history i just recently learned about, like the bubonic plague
As someone who saw my grandpa die of Alzheimer's I can confirm it's terrifying. It's so traumatic to watch, I fear it so much... And by the fact I had cases in my family I could get it, I hope it's curable by then...
High quality samonella is terrifying.
Btw i think this is the first time you have used this more expressive editing style, and i gotta say, its awesome
I thought high quality salmonella was cholera ngl
i was chased by a rabid skunk once. he was way faster than i thought he'd be. poor guy had peed and vomited on himself and was having small seizures. called animal control and they took him away.
rip little man. you turned me into Usain Bolt for a sec.
Trust me bro he’s moving
To anyone else who may suffer from medical anxiety:
Rabies can only be transmitted through saliva, thought it is a good practice to get rabies vaccines after any contact with a possibly rabid animal. Rabies can almost ONLY be carried by mammals. Fish and birds almost are completely immune to it, theres a single case of a bird (a goose) transmitting rabies - and im not even sure if it was confirmed to be rabid itself. Also. Rabies cannot last outside the body for longer then 20-30 minutes. Finally, rabid animals are extremely rare in north america, being more common in poorer countries that dont have animal veterinarian services for rabies vaccines for dogs and cats
never did i think i would see trust me bro animated 😭 love it tho man!
Fun fact 😊there were no plague doctors in the Black death instead the great plague
Huh
@@shuriken2505 plague doctors camr around 15th century meanwhile black death was 12th century
@@MrMisterTbone1stThere were two waves of the Black Death, the second one being during the 1500s which. It was also around first during the 14th century, not the 12th. Here’s a bit of an article regarding plague doctors:
“The Plague, or the Black Death, first struck Western Europe in 1348 and is believed to have wiped out around 50% of the world’s population at the time. The disease itself made a number of comebacks over the years, most notably in the 1600s. With symptoms ranging from a high fever, lumps around the armpits and legs, vomiting and painful spasms, death usually followed in 5 days. Medical practitioners at the time were wholly unprepared for such a virulent disease and no contemporary treatments were effective against it. There was little recourse but to hope you wouldn’t be next to be struck down.
The title of plague doctor has existed since at least the early 14th century (we’ll be exploring a specific case a little later) but the outfit we know wasn’t devised until around the 17th century.” -Newcastlecastle.co.uk
I don’t want you to think I’m disagreeing as plague doctors weren’t really documented until the 16th century, but I did want to correct some info :)

I love the new animation! Whenever Im at school instead of doing work I just watch this guys channel (he teaches me stuff more than school does tbh) Honestly for me, this guys channel is peak and one of the most interesting. And idk why but his voice just makes him sound like a very nice person in general, it sounds very kind and calming in a way
my grandma got the old age dementia, grandpa died with the diabetes dementia, the description of Alzheimer fits them both there are many ways to go coocoo before dying, human design is great
You really can tell that our brother has a huge heart.. The way he speaks in his vids and always remove us to look after ourselves or be careful or never do a certain drug.
When i see my kids next thus channel will be show to them for education.
Thank you bro.

My grandpa on my dad's side had Alzheimer's at the end of his life. He was a nice man, but I didn't get to know him very well since my mum wouldn't let me see my dad's side of the family out of spite when they broke up. He died when I was seventeen from pneumonia, but I was in foster care at the time, so I am glad I wasn't around to watch him deteriorating from the disease.
WAKE UP TRUST ME BRO UPLOADED A VIDEO!!!
(I LOVE THE STYLE BTW)
8:41 rabies usually does have a two to three month onset period but its also been documented in a dorment state, simply infecting the person but not showing symptoms for up to 10 years
3:27 I am also trapped, I wish I have never wondered what it's like to be disabled, because I wanted to know what it's like not to be disablled
been watching this channel since it had like 5 vids, this channel will go far i just know.
Drinking is completely normal for water allergy sufferers - because only cells in the skin are sensitive, but not the mucous membranes in the mouth
Alzheimer’s (and dementia in general) scares the living daylights out of me. My grandpa had dementia (frontotemporal), and just hearing about it scares me like hell.
I told my father if, in the case I ever get dementia, end me then and there. And I stand by that. I already have short-term memory loss, but I prize my long-term memories as a result. I can’t bear losing those, let alone losing myself.
Sidenote: DO NOT LISTEN TO EVERYWHERE AT THE END OF TIME IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR SANITY.
Also, thanks for saying ROUGHLY on the rabies part! People have survived it, but it’s exceedingly rare, and recovery is a struggle, requiring physical therapy and all that.
HAVEN'T WATCHED YOUR VIDEOS IN A WHILE AND NOW YOU'RE ANIMATING,DUDE RAHHHHH🦅
Something interesting about Rabies is how about a year ago someone lived through it WITHOUT the vaccine. They put her into a medically induced coma, and along with giving her various medications for her immune system and basic nutrients, she lived through it. She was the first person EVER documented to live through rabies after symptoms and no vaccines beforehand, which is an absolutely huge step in combatting this awful disease!!

Seriously though, great video, very interesting and so well animated!!
w increased production quality looking great man!
I was WAITING for the Bubonic Plague to be mentioned all throughout the vid. I have a complete morbid fascination when it comes to that disease & have watched tons of essays/documentaries on it. I'm honestly obsessed with it + anything related to the Middle Ages as it's my fav time period. It's astonishing just how many people died from one single disease & I wonder how our current society would have fared against it. Really makes you appreciate the wonders of modern medicine & general understanding of disease & illness.
I do want to make an important distinction with Bubonic Plague however: you may have heard of Bubonic Plague & Black Death as being synonymous with each other, but they are NOT the same thing! Bubonic plague is one single illness while Black Death incorporates three illnesses in one: bubonic plague, septicemic plague & pneumonic plague. The bubonic plague is PART of the Black Death but is not ALL of the Black Death. I will say bubonic plague does get most of the recognition, though septicemic plague & pneumonic plague were significantly deadlier. Just my inner nerd speaking.
That being said, great vid! I've already heard of most of these diseases but it's always nice to have a refresher. Honorable mentions I would include are the Spanish Flu & polio as both had their own respective outbreaks in the late 1910s & late 1940s-mid 1950s respectively. I would highlight polio a bit more as it's similar in physical deterioration with those infected gradually losing movement, much like those with FOP. The Spanish Flu also definitely left its mark though & was deadlier + on a more global scale while polio was mostly in the US (I think you might want to factcheck me here).
Anyway enough of my rambling, again great vid, you earned a sub! I love your vids discussing morbid & eerie topics, I love that kind of stuff :)
Depression is fucked up. I think I have seen enough and im not even 20 yet
You’re absolutely right bro, but just remember that the lens in which you see the world is how you interpret it. Depression is a warped lens that doesn’t accurately represent the beauty of the life we get to experience. We’re here for you bro. ❤️

I knew a guy that couldn't move most of his body due to his condition. Sucked to watch him slowly die. They asked him if he wanted to be laying down or sitting down.
It’s so cool seeing your character more!!!
I'll be 30 this year, and I have a genetic predisposition towards Alzheimer's, for me. It's like living with a permanent timer in my head written in some language I can't read, I know it's going to count down eventually, I don't know when, but when it does I'm slowly going to lose myself. And that genuinely scares me, I just hope there's some medical advancement that can help me before time runs out
Ten years ahead of you Justin, but otherwise in the same boat. I lost my father and grandmother and there's that little nagging thought that I'm next. I haven't quite made my peace with that.
Bro imagine having psychogenic polydipsia while having aquagenic urticaria 💀
My first job was serving food in an old folks home and that’s fine but specifically, I was serving in a late stage Alzheimer’s, and dementia ward. I was 14 and simply not prepared to see the things that I saw. I did not realize that I was walking into a place that loved ones were scraping to find a glimpse of the loved ones that they’ve already lost. I did not realize that all the food I would be serving would be liquid. I’m not as scared as dieing to something like this as I am to watching a loved one waste away with it.
Love ur content man 😁
fop is one of the scariest conditions ever, the pics of people with it are so unsettling
hey i have that water allergy! however i have a very mild case and im only affected by water through skin contact. i break out in little itchy hives. but they are bearable. so i still shower, go out in the rain, etc. worst part of it is when im sweating- i end up scratching my armpits and i look like im doing my best monkey impression.
This video was def not a bummer! Thanks bro ❤
Good video, although I'm surprised you didn't mention the "Milwaukee protocol" for rabies. It's like the ONLY shot once symptoms start showing, and it has worked atleast once.
There is actually vaccinations for Ebola, they were actually some of the first vaccinations using the mrna-method of immunisation, which enabled the sars-cov vaccinations.
I love how even the most horrible, terrible, deadliest things.. that stickman is still smiling 😂😂
Rabies is honestly my number one fear, Ebola is second
Wake up babes, a new trust me bro video just dropped
babe!S!. Smooth
I think the concept of being afraid of water when contracting rabies is more of a refusal to drink it. It's apparently extremely painful for the infected to drink water and after suffering that agony, they want nothing to do with it.
One of the only channels like these ive seen with animation, this is like million subscriber quality
3:17 take me out at that point god no
this is a perfect thing to listen to while going to sleep😴
3:01 I wish I would've known that when I was younger, I wish I would've known I would have a stroke and become nearly completely disabled on my left side
Yo I’m late but imma still watch
The animations ARE FIREEE 👌🏾
TRUST HIM BRO ❤
Bubonic plague is treated with modern antibiotics.
Sometimes I feel like I have Alzheimer’s disease
The fact that you can be allergic to contact with water is absolutely insane to me... It's wild that it's possible to survive in spite of that kind of condition... 😮
the worst thing about Alzheimer's is that in the end, what happens is that you forget how to breath. one of the worst possible ends.

ALS is terrifying to me. I can’t imagine what it is like to suffer from ALS. I also think having schizophrenia could be terrifying too.
I have bipolar disorder and it can be terrifying. Sometimes you can’t trust your thoughts and all you can think about is ending your life. When manic, it feels like someone else is using my body and ruining my life. And all I can do is sit back and watch for days, sometimes weeks.
ok so apparently my husband grew up with a kid with FOP in France??? i was just telling him about FOP and he was like “is it known as the statue disease? a kid at my school had that. doctors didn’t know what to do, so the dad had a go-fund-me and everything. then one day he just died.” its funny how you remember things as a kid.
You ate with the animation omfg 😩😩😍😍😍🙏🙏
Love the animation, really helps your videos stand out
Finally! It's not like stock market Photos
Great video! Just wanted to add a little something else terrifying...in the early days of the rabies vaccine you had to get something like 20 needles in (or around) your bellybutton! Talk about kicking a guy when they're down! Thankfully that is no longer the case.
when this channel hits a million subscribers I'm gonna tell people that I was here since 10k
I have a very chill teacher. He tells us personal stories and one stuck with me. He told us that his neighbor, an elderly manz had dementia and got into an argument with some kid. He said "If i was your ahe would beat you up" or something similar, and he thought the kid said it the next day and told the kid's momm
I find Dementia to be terrifying.
7:09 after watching your videos i don't even know what's scarier than your Google searches and research
Watching this after it came up when I googled. “Probable causes of fever and nausea and when you should stay home from work.”
The animation is so smooth
I remember a student from my primary school that had aquaphobia, which was pretty hilarious and also terrifying when you saw him at the toilets or when being served a soup in the cafeteria, he would just scream and bolt it out of there. I cant imagine what his life must be like.
