    Quick note about Elizabeth's death and the corset: Elizabeth was, for a variety of reasons (most quite sad) famously obsessed with maintaining her appearance. She almost certainly suffered from what we would now understand as an eating disorder. She also was well-known for tightlacing, which is when you tighten a corset as much as possible. Even in the 19th century people understood this was not a healthy thing to do. There were definitely fashionable women who did it occasionally at formal events, but doing it all the time like Elizabeth was actually pretty shocking.

    It'd probably be pretty funny. There's a story in the USSR where one of the first women in space didn't tell her mother she was going to space until her mother heard her BEING BROADCAST ON THE RADIO, FROM SPACE.
    There's also the fact that one woman helped to design the abort system on Saturn V rockets, and also once finished up a series of complex calculations for her job, WHILE IN LABOR WITH HER SON, JACK BLACK. Yes. That Jack Black.
    There's a surprising number of kooky stories involving women affiliated with space exploration.

      Ye, as explained by some people. It was only like a sometimes thing where people would actually tie them up so tight they’d crush your ribs.
      Most people just put them on comfortably, like I’ve seen like farm hands and working women in like SUPER OLD photos with corsets and they don’t look like they are dead lol.
      It’s kinda the same thing as sometimes people put on clothes 2 sizes too small for that “look” but it’s really really uncomfortable and crushes your lungs, also funny enough. In an opposite way trans people use binders to hide their breasts, but like all things if not worn properly or taken enough time of rest in between use can crush your ribs and give you breathing problems lol.
      It’s kinda been a problem forEVER.
      Like wearing a tight corset I think the best modern equivalent would be like a really really small bra. Which people do occasionally (trans people, and other people who I guess like pain?? Listen I do know of people who have actually done that, but I sadly don’t have any references rn.) do.
      So idk, when I heard about corsets the first couple of times I was like “oh no! Scary death things” then I learned that “oh wait what they were literally just bras?” And “ohh, people in the old days sometimes had pretty severe body dysmorphia and used to hurt themselves in a self harmish way to make themselves feel better but were probably suffering from some sorta eating disorder or body dysmorphia.” Like modern times.
      Sometimes things never change :P
      Idk that’s just my weird thoughts on it, I’m open to hearing about what you think.
      Hope you have a wonderful day!

    I just want to take a moment to point out that while sitting too much can be bad if you're not sitting right, standing can be worse even if you're standing right. Humans aren't horses. Ideally you want to be walking or something, but if you're standing too long without significant leg movement, you're actually doing more harm than good. The cardiovascular system is strong, but making it work unassisted against the full force of gravity for hours on end is a lot of stress on it, and not a healthy kind either.

    The name "William Bernard" in the newspaper article on Snyder is likely from the parents not wanting their family and child to be identified for privacy and safety reasons. I had a friend named Matthew who got hurt badly enough for it to be put on the news, but the news used the name Lauren because his parents didn't want pressure from the entire public knowing who they were.

    Edit: After finishing this video, I realized that people will keep dying and no matter how “too soon” they may be, he can always make a video on it.

    Regarding whalebone, it’s one of those “this name is wrong but I will never change it” things in English. It’s also used in a lot of classical clothes (corsets, suits, dresses, etc.) in order to maintain the structure of the garment. Tldr it’s because it’s fancy but it’s not common knowledge

    On the London Beer Flood - something that makes it even worse is how sewage was handled in London at that time. A large number of homes used cisterns under the home to store the sewage. So it is absolutely certain that in addition to the normal detritus such as horse poo and mud that mixed with the liquid there would have been copious amounts of human dung too. And people scooped that stuff up to sell it.

    I got a motorised standing desk, because it was a second hand £800 model, and I got it from some rich venture capitalist company who moved to another building with new desks, so I spent £100 on a desk that's worth £800 and I use the standing mode much more than I thought. I also use it to work whilst working out, in between sets. It's amazing.

    Hey huggbees!!
    I love what you do and I appreciate all the times you've made me laugh! However there's somethings I'd like to point out about one of the last deaths in this video. The corset as a whole has a lot of misconceptions due to media, misogyny, and shock factor that everyone chases. I highly recommend checking out historical fashion experts like Bernadette Banner, other enthusiasts like Karolina Zebrowska, and the folks they often associate with who have varying degrees of merit in the field
    I ain't mad or nothin cause plenty of people think these incorrect things about corsetry, but as historical fashion world wide is a passion of mine, its important to me that people of the past are fairly represented.
    As for the death of that lady, my best uneducated guess as to why she didn't notice sooner was perhaps her body went into shock, which can happen even if you don't know you got injured 😂

    I have a number of different issues of both Police News and The Police Gazette from the 19th century. They are one of my favourite reading materials, and you are correct in the video, it is full of very excellent Victorian illustrations of crimes that took place across America in the 19th century. There are some extremely interesting, bizarre and frightening stories throughout, which adds to the really cool illustrations. Or vice versa, perhaps. They are a great testament to the darker side of the American people during the mid to late 1800's, and I cherish them in my collection of weird and bizarre antiques and artefacts from the Victorian era and long before. I just stumbled onto your channel and am enjoying very much. Thank you for a great video!
