An amazing picture of the tiny blob that stopped the world!
Watching this because I get the results of my MRI next week. I have Tourette’s and it’s to see if my tics are caused by anything bad. It hopefully will be fine but till then I’m preparing for the worst just in case 😂
if you think about it brain is just a piece of meat with electricity
Yup
I wouldn't want to be a awake
My hungry ass could never be a brain surgeon🤣🤣🤣
Phenominal.
I was diagnosed with an incurable type 2 tectal glioma at 11 years old, I underwent numerous surgeries and lost the ability to move the right side of my body for 6 months. I pray for those who are going through cancer treatments now.
I’m so sorry to read this, how are things with you now? I sat and watched this and it instantly made my troubles seem meaningless, that was because they genuinely are. Your photo shows that you’re in to your teens so are thank goodness still here. God bless bro ❤
1:59 nahhhh I didn’t know we were that advanced 6 years ago
You think half a decade was like a century ago?
@ at the rate computers are progressing hell yeah
@@BassBoyHQ true true
I'm going to have a brain surgery
How did it go?
Well how much this wil be cost 😅😅🙂
My dream is to become a diesel mechanic but the human body fascinates me for what ever reason
Are you still alive
Genuinely so confused how this works
4:32 you can see a tiny bit of his brain in the right
So they only test if he can count ?? But what if it's actually harming something else lmao
Imagine moving your head up and the instrument punctures your brain. Would that be possible?
Had a car accident, skull fragment went into my brain.
I'm horrifed and disgusted that the red tube I saw in the video is a clear silicone tubing filled with blood and brain matter sucked out of his brain
2:48 can you at this point do something for brain to fight the tumor out?
i'd freak tf out
Doctor: "What functions do you want preserve?" Me: "Yes."
0:33 that man looks like bill gates😂
Everybody’s thanking the doctors, but the surgeons are operating on him, nurses are helping, and doctors also play a part. It’s not just the doctors, there are a lot of things that go into a surgery.
Ofc
read the title as awkward brain surgery and was confused
Isopods are the coolest!
question, his body isnt going to accidentally move right? hes physically paralyzed
You can see the pain in his eyes.. I'm so sorry to see him suffer
I would be too scared to be awake during this surgery, since it only takes one wrong cut for your light to go out
God bless these doctors
0:57 Oh you little silly naive goose. So funny lol
how’s that funny? just because they believe in a religion doesn’t mean they’re “naive”, asshole, lol.
“Oh you little silly naive goose…heh..so funny lol” ☝️🤓
Bro what tf
What tf are you on
It was their way of coping, as an atheist, fuck you.
What functions do you want to keep, “How about all of them.”
Idk why but my head hurt when I watch this
A doctor doing brain surgery is the most god like experience any human could ever experience in this world.
Please come to our lord and saviour Jesus Christ and please read the Bible and please do not use swear on anything or use bad words and foul words as the lord forbids it and do not believe in evolution as it is a distraction from the enemy to hide our lord and savior Jesus Christ from you and please do not celebrate pagan aspects of holidays and please ask forgiveness and repent to our lord and savior Jesus Christ and don’t glorify the enemy or sin as theses are distractions from the enemy to hide. God from you and please ask forgiveness and repent please to god and don’t use women clothing as it is a distraction from the bent to hide. God from you and the lord forbids it so please ask forgiveness and repent and don’t do gay things as it is a distraction from the enemy to hide. God from you and the lord forbids it so please ask forgiveness and repent to god
can you stop shoving religion up peoples faces? you are not in church, get a hold of yourself, seriously.
also, liking someone of the same gender is not going to kill you, if god created someone and they turn out to be gay, isnt that gods fault? god trippin
@ God is true please don’t reject him
@ It is not.
If doc removed everything but A1 B2 C3....
tumor ❌ chewmer ✅
Dang lol
😱🤯🥵😨😰😥😓🥺still awake awhile they’re doing brain 🧠 surgery. Yikes! This is absolutely terrifying for me . I’d rather be under anesthesia for it 😅😂
The brain has no pain receptors and you have to be awake during some brain surgeries so that they can make sure you still have all of your functions
He truly did get turned inside out
Wait a minute, where is Joy?
I can’t imagine if they accidentally touched the part that controls muscles😨
How do you feel? “Am open minded”
I've been thinking about this for Years! I'm wondering if have a Tub sized amount of this Algae plugged into Batteries? How much you would need and how long it would take to charge something. Seems like a worth while effort!
Do they even feel at least a slight touch on their head?
Ah yes. God. Based on what you believe he's the guy who must have given you the brain tumor. So you pray to him to take it away. That's like a doctor giving you hepatitis and then expecting you to beg him to cure it. Religious people have a major issue with their deductive reasoning skills. One day it will be considered a mass psychosis.
very true
If it doesn't affect their decision making, and they're not forcing it on anyone, and it helps them cope with the situation, I see no problem with it.
it’s true like I’ve always wondered why people thank god for someone getting better even though he apparently caused it in the first place.
Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous, who taught with the pen, taught man what he did not know
The fact that he stops counting tells the doctor to not remove that I DIED
Imagine someone searched inside out full film and this comes😂
This surgery happens so the doctors can be aware if it is the brain or the tumor
5 years later this still isn’t available on the NHS, it’s used in other places around Europe.
😮
Get dr murfy and glassman here rn
