Why Stubbing Your Toe Hurts So Much
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лют 2019
- Stubbing your toe hurts so much because you’re slamming a tiny surface with a force equal to 2-3 times your bodyweight. Then a bundle of nerve endings called nociceptors fire a danger signal to your brain. Although it’s not pleasant, this pain might have helped your ancestors step carefully and avoid injury and infection.

Do you comment every video you see ? I see you everywhere
Stepping on Lego ain’t even that bad...
The pain felt when stub your toe is worser than Vietnam.Oh my god life is so hard
I have stepping at the end of my computer cord
Lies
The worst for me is when you feel the impact and are able to say “Oh god no!” before the pain hits you. You know it’s coming. You can not escape.
0:38 ok but that animation actually hurt MY toe
Nicely animated! 👏🏾

When I stub my toe I have to do three full laps around the room running off the pain and then slump in defeat...
thecapito888 why lol
So RELATABLE
I nearly cringed when I saw that toe be pushed into the pin/tack. Disgusting and horrifying.
Told myself to watch this straight after stubbing my toe to make me feel better. but it's making it hurt more aaaaa

Why Karen taking the kids hurt so much
TechShorts the Lyon sleeps tonight
😂
Is this just a overused meme now?
my mom name is karen
bon bon she took your fathers kids which is you
These kids are saying stepping on a lego brick is worse... Have you ever stepped on a land mine? Worst pain of my life
I’m ready for the Climax stepping on a land mine doesn’t hurt but being in its explosive radius is
Don't you know the procedure for stepping on a landmine? You're supposed to jump 20 feet into the air and scatter yourself over a wide area
I’m ready for the Climax, dude is that a joke?
what if u stub ur toe ON a land mine?
Totoro :3, it wouldn’t hurt so much if u stepped on a lego piece.
You can alleviate the pain by firmly squeezing the arch (or any other part) of the foot. This is because there is a "gateway" for pain receptors in your brain and only so much can pass through at one time. This is why I dig my fingernails into my skin at the dentist. It really helps!
That second delay before the wave of pain is for you to think about what made u come to that situation
This reminds of the episode in Spongebob where Squidward gets his toe demolished
ya boi creamy potato the episode is called house fancy
Hated that episode
Ethaniel Clyne I know what episode you will love episode: AS SEEN ON TV it’s the best episode lol
One time I stubbed my pinkie toe on the end of a table and it became extremely swollen and purple to a point where I convinced it was sprained and could not bear to walk on it. I wrapped it with athletic tape, and over the next few days it was EXTREMELY purple and bruised and swollen still. It did improve, but my toe will never be the same again. Thanks for coming to my TED talk
I had to read that twice because I thought you were talking about your dick not your toe
I think you broke or jammed it
I love ted talks
yeah you inspired me now...
I know the feeling
When he stepped on the pin..... I FELT IT BRO!
Me : I have an exam tomorrow. I really need to study.
UA-cam recommendations:
Why stubbing your toe hurts so much.

I'm using this video to help me with physics. My exam is in 8 hours....
And I have computer exam in 15 hours but I'm here watching why tow hurt so much, how elephant truck work ....😶😧

That made me cringe so much
Me too had to close my eyes and look away
@@shamarthompson926 You're not the only one
I stapled my finger once
I saw this comment before I watched the video and thought thought you meant “stubbed”. I was not ready.
When I stub my toe I just crawl into bed like I’m about to die - I later found out my friends and sister do the same xD
XD how r u hyw
@GargaM channel Lol xD
I’m getting fricking anxiety from watching this
Humans are so delicate that's why we need peaceful and simple life.
*My toe hurts just from watching this video.*
Hokonu same
0:38 I felt that through the screen!
I totally get this man
I accidentally flipped my overgrown toe nail during sports and flipping it back was the worst that has *ever* happened to me..
thank you ancestors, for giving me the privilege of feeling pain💖
Never thought I would ever interested in knowing why stubbing my toe hurts until I watched this video. Next time, please make a video on why a wound in your body feels hurt and how to get one. Thanks, Science Insider!
how to get a wound?
@@farhanaraisa he's being sarcastic obviously
What if you stub your toe on a sideways LEGO , does like the world explode
If your fat
Stubbing your smallest toe is worse than the others.
I’ve never been so tense watching a video
One time a stubbed my Toe...
Then I came to this video whilst I vigorously cried
Joe mama dude I’m doing that shit rn 😂😂😂
I thought the title was "Why stabbing your toe hurts so much?"
0:38
That question is easy to answer
Why does it hurt??
I always question myself
Lol
0:38 my eye literally twitched 😂🤧
This video makes my toes tingle.
I would rather stub my toe then get a migraine
Summer Litchock, This is why grammar matters
@@johndevanwayne4272 I didn't even notice. Now I'm laughing my ass off.
huh
john Devan wayne
lmao, maybe it was intended
Summer Litchock same
0:38 I'm no scientist but fairly sure when you impale yourself with a spike it hurts because you impaled yourself and damaged tissue etc lol... I get the point your making but thats a bad example
Impacts damage tissue too, and then damage to tissue is picked up by nerves and transmitted to the brain.
@@dynamicworlds1 Of course but what was shown was a thumb tack being literally shoved into a stubbed toe as a comparison why it hurst more then stepping on the blunt end. To say the Pointy one hurt more because of the smaller surface area is doing the half inch of thumb tack embedded into your toe and tickling your bone a disservice
Think about it this way, the spike has a small surface area, which means that the pressure it causes to your toe is: P=F/A. The pressure inreases when surface area decreases. The tissue gets damaged because of that strong pressure.
Well, why do you think your toe gets impaled? Because the surface area is smaller, thus the pressure is higher
me: does nothing with sharp objects
my whole body: CUTS
You never know true pain unless you accidentally step on a metal disk of a beyblade,hurts like hell

After watching this i stubed me toe thanks,

At least you know what’s going on, at least.. haha..
You're welcome. I'm sure.
Oof ouch......
I lost my toe nail. Hurt like hell. took 8 month to grow a new one.
The first few seconds hurt like hell but sometimes it is a relieving feeling after
When the happen to me i always say
"OUCH OUCH OUCH"
and i will sqeeze it
We suffer near death everytime we stub our toe
Just cut them off can't hurt if I have none right
Pictured roll safe after reading your comment
Spongebob SquarePants goodluck with balancing 😂😂
Modern problems require modern solutions

Or you could just make it worse with phantom limb
when someone/something hits my lip and cuts it, it literally immediately makes your eyes water. idk why and it’s not like you need to cry it’s just the tears just pop out out of nowhere. know what I mean?
Just dropped a 10lb kettleball on my whole toe, and it's swollen bruised, and I can barely move it. I'm in so much pain it's throbbed.
Ouch
2:02 who the hell does that!🤢😖
Once well a few times i stubbed my pinky toe so hard i broke it....
*stubs toe*
Nervous system: So you have chosen...death.
Lol But It Hu®️t$ More Than The Other Hu®️t$.
I kid you not I stubbed my toe walking down the stairs watching this video. I regret nothing lol!
Who else have more Pinky Toe Problems and Accidents than the Toe Thumb.
I do. I have a pinky toe that seeks out every corner.
Same I have a black part underneath my nail on my pinky toe
Cj= coloso junk
I was thinking the same thing.
My friend kicked my pinky toe and its forever turned in the other direction
The chanting part of Guts' theme plays in my mind as I deal with the pain
Watching this video makes me feel it
I broke my big and index toe by kicking a step in my house at full running force that I forgot was there
I've lived in the same house for 14 years
Beeg Yoshi 😭
I hit it so hard I lost my toe nail. (IT slowly peal out)Took 8 months to grow new one.
I swear this is one of the worst pains somEOnE cAn *_EvER_* eXPeriEnCe
Yes I just stubbed mine yesterday my toenail is blue and black
Just Shady Theories
Nope, stepping on a lego is.
Now imagine it with an ingrown toenail.
The Rarecore
AHH
You've obviously never looped a dirt bike while racing and had the air knocked out of you.
What's even worse is when you accidentally cut your toe by stubbing it. The pain is unbearable
*stubs toe*
Me: *teleports to a new dimension of pain*
Still, everyone can agree that stubbing the pinky toe hurts the most
Yeah lol
This hurts to read ekkkk
I hit it so hard I lost my toe nail. (IT slowly peal out)Took 8 months to grow new one.
seeing this video just makes me feel the pain
when i stub my small toe i’m like: *tornado siren intensifies*
1:36 I’m thinking ‘the testicles’ most probably have bundles of nociceptors, given that there is a dull aftershock of pain following an impact to the nads.
If you’re homeless just buy a house
If you stub your toe just don’t have toes
Edit: thank you for all the likes❤️
If you cut yourself just dont have yourself
lol
😂
If you have cancer just get rid of it.
If you are depressed just be happy
Then why does stepping on lego blocks hurt so much?
Same reason
its the nerves
Seeing the animations make me and my toe scream with agony
I was running in my house because my doggy was chasing me then I heat my toe on a chair so hard I almost cried but I did not it’s been hours and it still hurts
I ran in to door frame on my baby toe and i hit side table in the lobby with my big toe but boy it sure has hurt like a mother of pearl doctors wont do nothing about it the pain is in their it was an accident though
