World's First Head Transplant: What's Involved?

- Matthew Crocker, a consultant neurosurgeon at St George's Hospital, London, explains exactly what's involved in a planned head transplant that would be the first ever carried out.
I've done this a hundred times on my sisters Barbie dolls! I know it works.
lol toy story reference...
LOL
Hahaha
Clowers Hiball 😂
Clowers Hiball😂
Wouldn't this technically be a body transplant?
Only if they move the body to the head Bone head lol
how will the doctor find the donor having neck bon of same diameter as like patients neck bon diameter
eveningcook but our consciousness in our brain
Yes it should be a body transplant not a head transplant. Idiots don't even get the terms right
radiality yes!
For anyone who wants to know how this went, the patient backed out because he had just had an unexpected son and couldn't risk the surgery.
Lol
@@rabiealkurba2520 no idea where the joke is but alright
lmao
haha
ofc, lol
I think one of the biggest risks would be prompted by the brains recognition of nerve, muscle, organ, etc memories. Through life your brain gets used to identified body parts, but if the transplant is successful per say having the head remain alive, the real challenge is for the brain to recognize the new body as new host. Either the brain adapts to move a new finger or send signals to new organs, or it just goes into shock for failing to identify the location of the organs, then shutting down. Transplants of smaller magnitudes are needed. And a strong will patient that is ready for everything and anything anytime.
Okay genius
Cheers John
This is real life JoJo, DIO would be impressed.
WRRYYYYYY
Something tells me that a head transplant is more difficult then unplugging an extension cord from one outlet, and then plugging it into another
So will he have 2 birthdays?
interesting
2 death anniversaries and 1 new birthday
Thats a very good question. The donor body would had been born on a different day(month, year) than a transplanted head. So, after the surgery is completed, how old is he?..
Should be 3
Double the gift
Funny if he wakes up and they've given him a black man's body...
This made me laugh 😂
+AncientPurpleDragon lol
+AncientPurpleDragon I kek'd
+AncientPurpleDragon the man getting the surgery actually said all he requires is the donor be male and white
eveningcook Imagine the look on his face as a decapitated head with a failed reattachment surgery.
All the very best to Valery Spiridonov, the gentleman who will undergo this. He's very brave. I wish him complete success.

This comment didn't age well..
To be completely honest, I rather die than look like a stranger and I don't think this will work
kelsterz lolli your head strangers body holy... lol
I actually do,other then astral travel this live is boring.
The lengths some people will go to just to get a little head...
I'm confused ... they say the donor head will be moved to the recipients body ... but isn't it the other way aruto no? Ie, the donor (whose dead obviously) gives their BODY to the recipient (who is alive, keeps his / her head, just has a new body).?????
Who would actually die to give up their perfectly healthy body for someone to transplant their head to
They would use the body of a brain dead patient.
Is that a Dio reference?
The amount of times they said umm or uh
There’s no way this could work
People said that to phones but look at them now
@@main8689 also heart transplants
Poor volunteer, I understand his struggle with his current body. but I'm afraid that it will not end well. I hope he change his mind.
+Asking Alexandria
agreed . hes trading a bleak existence for certain oblivion.. im sure he sees the possibility of success as being slim .. but to me its suicide....something of a bird in the hand versus two in the bush problem
+anlacombe have some faith in modern medicine... we have people officially considered cyborgs wandering about, why not a head transplant?
Bro studied under DIO💀
Imagine if they perfected that surgery.. there would be lots of em old heads with younger body walking around on Earth lol
Hmmmm just one problem 🤔 THE SPINAL CORD.
Sometimes, medical stuff… it frightens me…
Won't the body reject the head?
Only if they are different blood types, but they could take a little bit to get used to.
+MrSinisterSixty Yes. Not mention gluing the spinal cord back on will do nothing but keep it stuck there. The millions of nerves aren't going to know how to reconnect themselves on their own, nor will the millions of blood vessels, the main artery and veins of the neck, and of course the cerebral spinal fluid.
This is ideological medicine. It had no merit and no chance of ever working. Once the spine is severed, that man is dead.
+Uiomi um, actually we have found ways to make nerves reconnect, and the millions of blood vessels are every day work nowadays for a surgeon.
+MrSinisterSixty It is the HEAD so body cant reject.
+VenneX Geometry Dash The blood is actually your last concern when it comes to compatible body and head, there is cell compatibility too, like in organ transplants that is a WAAAAAAY worse reaction than a blood reject. Literally your antibodies and macrophagic cells will eat the other cells xd
In any way someone can think about this, it seems like an obvious failure. But the doctors must know better. I don't know what the hell is going on here.
This Would Be A Completely Risky Procedure, But Could Change The Lives Of A Lot Of People If Succesful
WRRYYYYY
Oh fellow jojo fan
In fact, it's not a head transplant. It's a full body transplant.
The person who uses his head will be the master not the one who lost the head. So the person who uses the body don't exist anymore cause the head is the master of our body.
The power i obtained by taking Jonathan's body...
...STANDO!
So, he just said that the donor head is moved onto the recipients body. The actual procedure is that the recipients head is moved onto a donor body.....
Glad to be in field of medicine 💖
What they didn't mention is the person would be paralysed. There is no known way to repair a spinal cord
Does he hold a memory of the past ?
Is that Jojo reference 😲
3:37, he should have said “arms and legs are tinker toys, i’m talking about the central nervous system”.
Sweet.. my life long dream of transplanting my head onto a lions body might finally come true.
Amazing. God designed the body with ways it can handle operations like this.
+holistic79 Nothing to do with God
Id need to see it to believe it. I say no way!
wait correct me if I'm wrong here but essentially what he is doing is bringing a person back to life? Because someone elses head would have the eyes, brain etc to process what is going on... I'm very confused.
its going to fail. the patients new body will reject the head. or hes new body will also be paralyzed
bad news for isis.
Nope, ain't gonna happen.
So, will there be heads market?
I wish this procedure will be successful
Surely it's the doners body and recipient's head not the other way round as the host stated!
The comment sections all over the place . it may be even more fun to read than watching the video.
What about the soul? Can't stay in old body... or do they have equipment like ghost busters?😅
So this does mean our consciousness will be the same?
Depends on if your brain is froze too long during procedure. HAHA let's play a game !!!
It is great successes and a new historical event that end any impossibility
Dio Brando made this before it became cool
Perfect this technology, and I have another part that is small and needs transplant
This will be great research for my "Alpha-1" progran.
Name has nothing to do with the MTF unit.
Unless they use some kind of conductor to fuse the spinal cord together this will not work. If they survive they will be paralyzed. More though needs to be put into this. Also the head can be easily rejected by the body.
Scientists have repaired the severed spines of rats so its possible.
ok if this is true then start with the repairs on all the spinal injury people in the world so that they can walk again
i don't know why but watching this makes my neck hurt at makes me laugh at the same time 😂😂😂
im on the weird sids of youtube again
I hope they start the surgery early so they get a 'head start' ;)
once this technology is perfected I want my head attached to a goat
but why?
Goats are dope
and i want my head attached to hot guy
@@southeasegirl2329 But your face is ugly.
hahaha crazy
Am I the only one who feels like these guys are being super passive-aggressive to one another?
trur
So true😂
He was because every sane doctor could not accept that reattaching spinal cord will yield any useful connection... just until a bunch of Chinese doctors did the spinal cord reattachment and heads transplants on mice that this whole concept is beginning to sound less like a scifi story and more like a reality. Its seems that (at first look kinda looney) Italian doctor might have been right all along.
***** Head transplant YES, but not spinal cord reattachment.
10n-- i believe there is research where nerve cells can be induced to grow together with electrical and chemicals pushing the process , cutting edge stuff no pun intended
Doesn't the spinal cord not heal? Isn't that why people stay paralyzed?
It's more complicated than that. But that is preety much it.
Knights Templar Well neurons in the central nervous system don't contain any neurilemma (promotes axon regeneration) unlike neurons in the peripheral nervous system so they can't be repaired. Atleast from what I remember, so I'm confused how the neurons in the spinal cord just repair themselves with this magical "glue".
U N But still. There would be numerous other problems.
Knights Templar Hmm well I guess we'll have to wait till December 2017, the date of the operation.
U N Cant wait
I wasn’t originally going to get a brain transplant, but then I changed my mind..
good one
Slow clap
Not a brain transplant, the brain is not being replaced, the entire body is being replaced. The brain is still the same brain.
they should put a Bulls head and connect it to a human body
that'd be cool.
Man Bear Pig
No, they should put the mans head on a bull. Much cooler.

Is he Dio Brando or B.J. Blazkowicz?

KONO DIO DA!
ahhhh, i wanna kill more people in Rome
no no no Dio with Jonathan's body is called DIO

This is fascinating!!! I love science, and I never question the mountains we can conquer if we believe!! However, a surgery of this magnitude is bound to come with a great deal of risks; however, if this surgeon can pull it off, he will definitely be remembered and praised!!!! I want to become a successful neurosurgeon like that!!! And like Ben Carson!! God bless both the doctor and the patient!!!
Ben Carson is a joke, a laughing stock!
@@bobsaget9717 why?
He falls asleep during every surgery and can't even fully open his eyes.

What will happen to the souls from the bodies combined?
theblackbull55 the soul is in the brain I think
theblackbull55 what souls?
lmao what
The ultimate being is born.
aint no soul....get back on earth bro dont lose it
I understand the moral aspect of giving a lifelong quadraplegic individual a chance to have a potentially more functional body.
The research point here is the "gluing" of the spinal cord with Polyethylenglycol to the new spinal cord.
Imagine a very wide electrical cable composed of thousands of smaller electrical cables each having a specific functions, how can this main cable be glued back on so that all smaller cables it is composed of match perfectly?
How can all the nerves in the spinal cord match perfectly the nerves of the donor?
Once this is done, how can the brain relearn the functioning of the new vital organs like heart and lungs?
Wouldn't the "donor" head then become the true person ? In theory couldn't one live indefinitely with your head being removed and the body being replaced with a young one time after time ?
yeah I was thinking the same thing. Also what about the brains?
If someone cuts off person A's head and puts person B's head on A's shoulders then A would have B's brain. It wouldn't be A anymore. It would be B with another body. Also if there's a head donor they should probably be dead..? If person B is dead and B's head is being used for A then A couldn't even be alive in the end bc B is already dead.. Shouldn't it be a body-donor then? So that the person is still the same person but has another body?
Maybe I got something wrong (probably).
Brain cells age too and can only replicate but so many times.
I believe the correct one should be "body" donor
I heard smoking cannabis makes it work again...
we die when our brains die even if our bodies are healthy
that is right i did this to my jojo friend who died and save his body
very detailed GOOD VIDEO ESPECIALY TO A VAMPIRE LIKE ME

100% sure this is a joke.
Nope
Mike Black this time nop :
Mike Black NOPE NOT AT ALL heart transplants sounded like this years ago
Mike Black Nope.
If they can actually do this, then I do not understand why they can't repair spinal cord injury. This means severing and re-attaching a spinal cord, even the way he explains it makes no sense. This will cause not just an injury but actually completely sever the spinal cord, it makes no sense. I love medical science but this just goes too far, invest more time in more useful research that doesn't involve mutilation of a corpse.
👏👏👏👍👍👍
because its risky...but both are risky...so.....science?
"If."
This procedure has never taken place before. Even if successful, there's a risk of infection and the head rejecting the new body later down the road.
Well if someone is going to die anyway, they might as well give it a try right? And they will still learn so much whether it fails or succeeds
+Justin Waters, it wouldn't be the head rejecting the body. It would be the body rejecting the head. But the risk of infection and rejection is no different than in any other transplant operation.
why on earth would anyone want a head transplant
Perhaps for someone who is in the advanced stages of a degenerative muscular disease?
James Murphy or in the elite 1%
What a dumb question. The guy who is to have his head moved to another body has a rare muscle-wasting disease that will kill him. He's already surpassed his life expectancy. This is his last hope to survive.
Avio Ugly people would want it :-)
Avio Not want, NEED one doofus.

Amen Ra.
I still think these so-called ‘steam trains’ are an affront to God’s divine plan.
@@williamrisbridger60 Depends on which worldly leadership it is under.
I wonder... If one were to somehow keep a brain alive while isolated from a body, and feed it inputs approximating the sensory information it would normally receive, would it be "conscious", with the consciousness being limited to its inputs?
i know im 5 years late but technically yes
I don't think it's possibal trust me I'm a Dr....hence the spelling
there is no chance this will every work and thats why it has never been done
I'm assuming the donor (in this case the body) is been declared brain dead and is being kept alive for donation purposes. The head will be that of the patient, who for whatever reason, needs a new body to live. Seems excessive, but it makes sense.
that readon is he's going to die anyway, he's a millionaire so why not give your only chance at saving your life.

Why is he wearing his scrubs on TV.... Has he no shame?
The doctor seems slightly less familiar with the procedure than the interviewer.
