I have a question for this doctor.. How we can hear _so loud_ pop from such a small buble and how tf it can pop if air or whatever it is has nowhere to release? It should just get squeezed a bit or split in two or more of them,i guess.. And another one, what happens when you pull your finger upwards and it also pops? I really have no idea why would they lie.. Someone please give me a good answers
@@yourbadtrip4207 *"how tf it can pop if air or whatever it is has nowhere to release?"* It can't. No scientist ever said otherwise, that's just the author being dense and not doing their research very well. *"How we can hear so loud pop from such a small bubble"* How loud it is depends only on the amount of energy released, not the size. Some fraction of the power you use to pull your knuckles apart is harvested to enable the bubbles to form. Think how easy it is to use a clicker, or bash pots and pans together. Your arms have the power to make very loud sounds!
@@TheReaverOfDarkness wait, u sort-of agreed to first question, if air isn't released anywhere, then how energy is released? Those bubbles should just split in two or more but shouldn't pop.. Try getting air bubble under the water and then try to pop it, what's gonna happen? It will just split in few smaller ones, no energy is released
@@yourbadtrip4207 Air bubbles splitting underwater takes a very tiny amount of extra energy to accomplish, and they will prefer to give that energy up and re-form into one. But no audible sound will be produced. However tearing gas out from a liquid and cavitating it into a bubble can generate a lot of sound.
Stephanie White Well technically Plebeian (Pleb) only means common person. A.K.A. Not a Patrician, which fits a majority of the population anyways so it shouldn't be taken as an insult as much as it is.
riogan941 Actually this video reminded me to crack my fingers, especially since I've just had some ukulele practice. I definitely cracked my joints noticeably and on purpose.
riogan941 i got reminded to crack them but i realized the gas was on cooldown . After all this time i don't realize i crack em anymore , it's just a reflex to crack the fingers once per 20 minutes .
Good news. My grandfather smoked tobacco from the time he was 14 to the time he was 99. 85 years, and died cancer free. So, that proves it is a myth that tobacco causes cancer, right?
There are a lot of different causes of crepitus( joint sounds), but the one explained in this video is the most common. Excess pressure on joints is often caused by muscle tightness. There is sometimes a neurological effect that relaxes the involved muscles when joints cavitate, particularly in the spine, which is why chiropractic works sometimes. It can be life changing for some people. Lot of chiropractors selling snake oil though, whether they mean to or not.
this makes a lot of sense, have been seeing a chiropractor lately and was wondering how it could be working so quickly…had chronic pain for 3 years straight before starting treatments
I'm a chiropractor and I don't disagree with you, but things are rapidly turning around in the field. A lot of chiros are now able to perform functional medicine along with adjusting. Don't listen to the chiropractors who want to talk about their "philosophy" of releasing the body's "innate". There is so much actual research showing the efficacy of chiropractic treatment, especially in avoiding opioids for pain management. It's an incredible field that unfortunately has given itself a bad name (along with the AMA smears) over the years.
@@jc3001 I think often the best thing a chiropractor does is to encourage people to be healthy, and it might not even matter too much what is said if the person gets the message.

It's fascinating how in different cultures you learn different things. I grew up in Bangladesh where people love cracking their knuckles! When I was a kid, my mum would say 'let's see how intelligent you are' and crack my knuckles. More pops meant more intelligence 🤣 (obviously as a joke). Years later I moved to New Zealand and came across those annoyed co-workers who always said I am going get arthritis because I cracked my knuckles! Alright this long comment was a bit tiring to type.

In high school I used to crack my fingers often but it annoyed a girl in my class and i decided to stop it but even so I keep doing it from time to time. Once you get used to it there is no turning back, sometimes I crack my fingers by mistake when I'm using my hand.
Once in school I got together with 3 others, and we all arranged to crack all our joints at a certain point in an exam. Once the clock rolled past a quarter, we all looked at eachother, and scared everyone with a 20 second long symphony of cracking... No people were harmed, but several people left after saying they'd felt sick.
+Reragi you can, but not everyone. People who have wrong positioned jaw (jaw that goes too much to front, too much to back, left or right) can do it easy. And it does not hurt them. But people who have well positioned jaw , can do it too, but it hurts them!
@@atomicflash1753 Eight years in, and I've still got nicer looking fingers than like, 80% of people I know. I started as a child, too. If it didn't affect anything during my main period of growth, then it just won't affect anything.
YES!!! I pop my knuckles all the time so I’m glad it doesn’t cause arthritis! Although it has made some joints hurt for a little while, but I just have to stretch them and they’ll be fine.
The voice narrating in the video is truly calming...and thanks for taking that one burden of tension away of getting some serious problems just by lil' knuckle popping. Thanks!
My mother in law is 200% convinced that me and my partner cracking our knuckles and such will cause arthritis, and no one can tell her other wise. Whether you tell her once, twice, or five million times. Doesn't matter if you provide studies, doctor's feedback or actual proof. (As we have both been doing it for > 10 maybe 15 years.)
johnny hacksaw Why am I even watching this when I hate the sound of people cracking their knuckles??? Although I can pop my ankle just by moving it 24/7 lol
I can crack my: Toes at both joints Fingers at all joints All my verdebre Noes Wrist Knee Hips Elbow Shoulders ..... Yea I have issues this isn't normal
I’ve heard this same theory a bunch of times, and it always leaves the same two unanswered questions: why are the pops so loud, and how can some people pop the same joint repeatedly, without pause? I’ve heard some popped joints as loud as a pane of glass being shattered, which seems improbable if caused by a bubble bursting. Also, I can-hypothetically-pop my big toe at a rate of twice per second from here to infinity, without it getting sore (although the muscle atop my foot will from repeated stretching) or losing the crispness of the popping sound, and have, on multiple occasions, done it for minutes at a time to show off this weird ‘talent’ to others. How is that possible, since there should theoretically be a limit to the amount of bubbles that can burst before they are depleted?
My big toe sometimes does the same thing; I don't think it's the same phenomenon. It feels and sounds different. I think it's actually the bones rubbing against each other, or maybe a tendon being plucked when it gets stuck on something. The pops are loud because bubbles forming from sudden depressurization - cavitation - and then collapsing is a very powerful thing. Cavitation on the surfaces of ship propellers can eventually destroy them, and some scientists think cavitation causes such a surge of pressure that small amounts of fusion can happen at the center.
me before bed: *pops all of those fingers, back, shoulder, feet etc.* that one finger: *doesn't want to be popped* me: ugh fine I'll pop you tomorrow.. me tomorrow mornin': *pops all of those parts including the one finger that doesn't wanted to be popped* also that one finger: *popped* also me: *Y E S , I N E E D E D T H I S*
Diamond Emerald diagnosis happens at the doctors. But you probably just keep it in one position for a long time or workout and then suddenly you extend and it hurts. Pretty sure it happens to everyone but if you think it’s severely painful, go to a hospital to check what’s up
I can crack my knuckles if I close my hands into a fist hard enough (which isn't very hard; I do it multiple times a day) Can anybody else do it as well? I haven't met someone who can yet.
It's interesting that cracking your knuckles might weaken your grip -- I find that if my knuckles have gone unpopped for a while (especially after I've just woken up) that my hands feel stiff and my grip feels weaker (easily rectified by cracking the knuckles). I also found that if I started playing the piano not having cracked my knuckles that I'd have a harder time with anything that required higher dexterity or faster movement.
Same, I'm a dancer and find it much easier to get through a rehearsal session if I've popped my spine/knees/ankles first, like stretching before a workout but for joints rather than for muscles🤷🏼♀️
For some reason, every time I bend my right knee more than a little bit, I hear it pop. No matter how many times I do it, or how frequently I do it, I hear the pop, ever when I do it continuously for a minute! The real problem, however, is that my teacher says it's a bad thing, as this involuntary popping is usually seen in old age, and I am afraid he may just be right....
My grip strength is pretty strong and I’ve been cracking my joints all my life so. Personal experience says otherwise on the weakening grip side effect
I cracked my fingers for round about 18 years now and unfortunately I noticed at different occasions that my grip strength suffered alot although I'm in a handcrafts trade and workout. :-( But I cant stop anymore. My fingers feel completely stiff if I dont crack em regularly
I would be careful with knees because constant popping could be different problem that would need addressing my personal experience was an overly tight IT band that caused my knee cap to shift slightly and the popping was the grinding
Cracking my fingers, wrists and neck feels soooo good, and my neck especially when I wake up in the morning and it's been sort of bent for an entire night, the pops just hit (amazingly) differently
Because of my form of cerebral palsy, I don’t have much flexibility in my joints and muscles because of having hypertonia. But at the same time I end up cracking my joints in more unexpected ways because of the limitations I have with my mobility.
I flew to amsterdam once with my buddy, that pillar ordered us a room for the whole trip (8 straight days) in with 8 more other people inside. which is normal for maybe a day or two.. we tried a couple of things (such as getting freightlnly stoned in a foreign country first time) nothing helped, we stayed in that room for 8 days. than on the second day this american-chinese girl came to the room for an overnight in the room, and we all went to sleep (full room) and we came back with my buddy at around 12am quietly went to sleep also but couldn't manage to sleep so fast as expected. I cracked my knuckles in my feet, my buddy cracked knuckles at his toes, than me, than him again. this went back and forth as I saw this as a point of mockery of who can make his knuckles crack louder and that asian chick wen't all bananas without even knowing who was doing the cracking noises! the cracking stopped. the next day we chatted with another couple that've stayed more then a couple of nights and they said it was totally un-called for that she yelled at that noise lmao
Same here, though I am pretty sure that in my case it is due to a ski accident. Once I got the bandages removed it simply started cracking when I applyed pressure to it. Maybe you too had something like this.

already didn't popped my joints
Easy.
That's
I m po ssi ble--
I failed
In high school I used to crack my fingers often but it annoyed a girl in my class and i decided to stop it but even so I keep doing it from time to time. Once you get used to it there is no turning back, sometimes I crack my fingers by mistake when I'm using my hand.
Once in school I got together with 3 others, and we all arranged to crack all our joints at a certain point in an exam. Once the clock rolled past a quarter, we all looked at eachother, and scared everyone with a 20 second long symphony of cracking...
No people were harmed, but several people left after saying they'd felt sick.
Golden Panda Haha lol
+Golden Panda i do the same but with coughing..
This is a really good concise video! The best one I've seen on the subject!
I swear I just cracked the knuckles on my fingers before watching this
Justin Fung woah... what are the odds of that happening!?
oh wait ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Justin Fung i knuckles on my toe.... before watching this
Proving Mom wrong. Best reason ever.
Plus a Nobel Prize.
lesson learned
Nobody:
Gets up from bed*
*crack* *
Me: Man I'm getting Old
Just a peace of cake, i used to pop my back and neck after I woke up during my first two years of high school
Hahaha
I'm 17 and that happens.
But that's because I trained all of my joints to crack.
Nope you're not old.. you're crispy
Lol
When I inhale deeply, my spine cracks.
I find it very satisfying
I find cracking my neck to be much more satisfying than cracking my knuckles or any other joint.
my neck is what i can crack easier
i couldnt do it like a year ago but now i can and i dont know/remember why
I'll have to crack my neck, otherwise it will crack when I make a fast move, and give that hot-pain feeling in my neck and even toung xD
I agree, but the back feels *amazing* too
That's True
Hi! Who else cracks the Necks and Backs AND Fingers and Thumbs? I can.
Me: Watches video. Pops knuckles, fingers, knees, elbows, neck, toes and back.
same
lol it's a bit like watching a head lice video, Everyone starts scratching. it's really weird
+Oliver Oseguera (TacoManTheFirst) but can you crack your jaw?
+Reragi sometimes but it hurts lol
+Reragi you can, but not everyone. People who have wrong positioned jaw (jaw that goes too much to front, too much to back, left or right) can do it easy. And it does not hurt them. But people who have well positioned jaw , can do it too, but it hurts them!
I watched this because my dad told me my fingers will grow bended lol
It's true
Mine is like it won't stay straight but it did give me talant!
My fingers are very flexible
Sivana Banana same actually
@@atomicflash1753 Eight years in, and I've still got nicer looking fingers than like, 80% of people I know. I started as a child, too. If it didn't affect anything during my main period of growth, then it just won't affect anything.
I crack my back by twisting it and often my whole spine cracks from top to bottom. Feels amazing. Do it multiple times a day
Me: moves an inch*
CRACK
My mom: acts like it would get me killed one day*
Ikr same here.
i can crack my toes
i can too. *crack*
wanna meet up and have a CRACK?
+Universal i can also crack your toes
Me 2
+Universal My toes are crack
+Universal I raise your toes with my left ankle & right knee ;0P
Me sneaking for a midnight snack: hehe
My joints: hehe sike **crack**
YES!!! I pop my knuckles all the time so I’m glad it doesn’t cause arthritis! Although it has made some joints hurt for a little while, but I just have to stretch them and they’ll be fine.
Basically a video about crack and joints.
Hristin Andonov that's what she said
Underrated 😂😂😂
Lol
i exhaled through my nose loudly. very funny
I just realized what this said 😂 lmfao
I spent this entire video cracking the hell out of my body
The voice narrating in the video is truly calming...and thanks for taking that one burden of tension away of getting some serious problems just by lil' knuckle popping. Thanks!
Jane Nile true..!☺️
My mother in law is 200% convinced that me and my partner cracking our knuckles and such will cause arthritis, and no one can tell her other wise. Whether you tell her once, twice, or five million times. Doesn't matter if you provide studies, doctor's feedback or actual proof. (As we have both been doing it for > 10 maybe 15 years.)
seeing bones and body stuff in videos make my entire body tickle cringe and same when I hear people crack knuckles so this video made me squirm
2spooky4u
johnny hacksaw
Why am I even watching this when I hate the sound of people cracking their knuckles??? Although I can pop my ankle just by moving it 24/7 lol
Wyatt Polinko ugh me too
I can pop the three bones in my ears
I can crack my tongue.
🤔
Wow that's amazing
But the tongue is a muscle?? (If this is a joke I'm sorry)
You ok?
snappy. wiggly.
I can crack my:
Toes at both joints
Fingers at all joints
All my verdebre
Noes
Wrist
Knee
Hips
Elbow
Shoulders
.....
Yea I have issues this isn't normal
me in a nutshell
I can do all of those pluse my ears and my jawbone
Thirteen Pandas I can do the same, I always thought I couldn’t but realized mine are just quiet xd
Joint that cracks most of the time is my thumbs of the legs.
Thirteen Pandas i can do my arm by bending it the other way
Is the Nobel prize enough for this man’s dedication to seeking the truth. Wow!
i got a special condition where i can pop every major joint i have
Hmmm seems like it’s called major joint popping disease, or some thing like that.
The animation made me laugh so hard, I had to watch it again to get the content!!
I found it funny that before I clicked on the video my shoulder popped.
This little video is the most fun I've had on UA-cam all week so far. 👌
I’ve heard this same theory a bunch of times, and it always leaves the same two unanswered questions: why are the pops so loud, and how can some people pop the same joint repeatedly, without pause?
I’ve heard some popped joints as loud as a pane of glass being shattered, which seems improbable if caused by a bubble bursting. Also, I can-hypothetically-pop my big toe at a rate of twice per second from here to infinity, without it getting sore (although the muscle atop my foot will from repeated stretching) or losing the crispness of the popping sound, and have, on multiple occasions, done it for minutes at a time to show off this weird ‘talent’ to others. How is that possible, since there should theoretically be a limit to the amount of bubbles that can burst before they are depleted?
You are an X men, seriously tho my husband can crack his neck twice but it's so loud that can't be normal.
Crispness Lmaoo
My big toe sometimes does the same thing; I don't think it's the same phenomenon. It feels and sounds different. I think it's actually the bones rubbing against each other, or maybe a tendon being plucked when it gets stuck on something. The pops are loud because bubbles forming from sudden depressurization - cavitation - and then collapsing is a very powerful thing. Cavitation on the surfaces of ship propellers can eventually destroy them, and some scientists think cavitation causes such a surge of pressure that small amounts of fusion can happen at the center.
My little finger can do so, not limited. I thought my case is really rare.
i can crack my knuckles by making a fist, this like your toe has no cooldown
me before bed: *pops all of those fingers, back, shoulder, feet etc.*
that one finger: *doesn't want to be popped*
me: ugh fine I'll pop you tomorrow..
me tomorrow mornin': *pops all of those parts including the one finger that doesn't wanted to be popped*
also that one finger: *popped*
also me: *Y E S , I N E E D E D T H I S*
What the heck? Why did you have to add all those "me"s?! So cringey af man..
@@Shockxv she's a little girl
Wtf happened with internet these days ;-;
ok.
This is cringe but relatable
0:55 I completely lost it in the shoulders part 😂😂😂😂
watching this made me cracked my joints while imagining the bubble on the fluids.
My elbow pops painfully and hurts when I extend it. Any tips or disgnosis?
Diamond Emerald cancer
Diamond Emerald diagnosis happens at the doctors. But you probably just keep it in one position for a long time or workout and then suddenly you extend and it hurts. Pretty sure it happens to everyone but if you think it’s severely painful, go to a hospital to check what’s up
Super cyda
the krampus 2 ???
The joints can be out of alignment and are not gliding smoothing against each other. A physiotherapist could help
I can crack my knuckles if I close my hands into a fist hard enough (which isn't very hard; I do it multiple times a day)
Can anybody else do it as well? I haven't met someone who can yet.
+Derek Ferraro I can do that on my toe.
+Derek Ferraro I can pop some of them and like never stop and they will stil lbe poping
+Derek Ferraro I can!
+Nikola Nojić same with me
+Derek Ferraro I can, it is very easy
Wow! I helped my brother pop his neck and it made him really relaxed! Thanks TedEd!
Quality👌 Animation at 2:53
Thic
It's interesting that cracking your knuckles might weaken your grip -- I find that if my knuckles have gone unpopped for a while (especially after I've just woken up) that my hands feel stiff and my grip feels weaker (easily rectified by cracking the knuckles). I also found that if I started playing the piano not having cracked my knuckles that I'd have a harder time with anything that required higher dexterity or faster movement.
Same, I'm a dancer and find it much easier to get through a rehearsal session if I've popped my spine/knees/ankles first, like stretching before a workout but for joints rather than for muscles🤷🏼♀️
everyone: cracking their fingers while watching this video.
Me: starts standing on my bed cracking every single bone.
Same
2:39 tupac is alive - confirmed.
the sounds of popping joints in this video are so satisfying but when I try popping them it kinda hurts
For some reason, every time I bend my right knee more than a little bit, I hear it pop. No matter how many times I do it, or how frequently I do it, I hear the pop, ever when I do it continuously for a minute!
The real problem, however, is that my teacher says it's a bad thing, as this involuntary popping is usually seen in old age, and I am afraid he may just be right....
When I ball my hands into fists my joints crack and I can do it many times without waiting.
I thought I was the only one with that ability. Looks like I am not alone
Sanskar Dikshit haha..but everyone have some unique properties try to find yours :D
I don't think that's good
DANIEL3351 no thats good cause some of my friends can try that too and nothing happens, well I can try it for 5 years for the Ig Nobel Prize :P
Ajinkya Naik If you say so, im no expert, but I wouldn't say its good or bad
My grip strength is pretty strong and I’ve been cracking my joints all my life so.
Personal experience says otherwise on the weakening grip side effect
It does not prove anything (though I think you are right). "I smoke for 70 years and still alive" - same thing.
I cracked my fingers for round about 18 years now and unfortunately I noticed at different occasions that my grip strength suffered alot although I'm in a handcrafts trade and workout. :-(
But I cant stop anymore. My fingers feel completely stiff if I dont crack em regularly
Who knows cracking joints in only one hand can win you a nobel prize
My knees crack when I bend down. I don't like it, it sounds like the knees are going to need replacing some time in the future
I would be careful with knees because constant popping could be different problem that would need addressing my personal experience was an overly tight IT band that caused my knee cap to shift slightly and the popping was the grinding
Same here. I thought I was the only one.
It can also be the ligaments that are controlling the movement of the meniscs
It’s not only my knuckles it’s my elbows ankles knees and that’s about it
Am i the only one who could knuckle my hands endlessly ???
I can't
i can crack my ankles endlessly
No you aren't only one
There are tons of other
Including me...
I can do as well
So iam not alone then
This channel really helped me understand the “behind the scenes of life”
Cracking my fingers, wrists and neck feels soooo good, and my neck especially when I wake up in the morning and it's been sort of bent for an entire night, the pops just hit (amazingly) differently
Because of my form of cerebral palsy, I don’t have much flexibility in my joints and muscles because of having hypertonia. But at the same time I end up cracking my joints in more unexpected ways because of the limitations I have with my mobility.
I can crack every joint that is crackable in my body LOL but sometimes it hurts.
sameee
AmeZ Animates I love ur profile pic
I flew to amsterdam once with my buddy, that pillar ordered us a room for the whole trip (8 straight days) in with 8 more other people inside. which is normal for maybe a day or two.. we tried a couple of things (such as getting freightlnly stoned in a foreign country first time) nothing helped, we stayed in that room for 8 days.
than on the second day this american-chinese girl came to the room for an overnight in the room, and we all went to sleep (full room) and we came back with my buddy at around 12am quietly went to sleep also but couldn't manage to sleep so fast as expected.
I cracked my knuckles in my feet, my buddy cracked knuckles at his toes, than me, than him again. this went back and forth as I saw this as a point of mockery of who can make his knuckles crack louder and that asian chick wen't all bananas without even knowing who was doing the cracking noises! the cracking stopped.
the next day we chatted with another couple that've stayed more then a couple of nights and they said it was totally un-called for that she yelled at that noise lmao
Who won
I use Castrol oil for better joints performance
How you take that drunk it or inject it...?
I can crack my fingers, toes, ankles, wrists, neck, back, elbows and shoulders.... I am a human popping machine
jman6866 I can do all of that and also crack my knee
jman6866 same
I can Crack open a soda.
i can pop my thumb constantly. so wat that means , bubbles is creates by the sec?
JayZtunning same!
Same here, though I am pretty sure that in my case it is due to a ski accident. Once I got the bandages removed it simply started cracking when I applyed pressure to it. Maybe you too had something like this.
Thank you Dr. Unger for your commitment to science.
