I don't care how many arguments I have for House. The *minute* he tells me "get out, this thing's radioactive" I'm doing the exact same thing that Chase did.
What if he says 'It's radioactive Lupus!' Everyone knows it's never lupus.
The face he makes at Foreman when the scanner starts to make noise 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@birdyboy1900 lol it could be read like "What do you think now?" or "What are you still doing here?"

Honestly anyone saying that im bouncing
I would have never mentally recovered, knowing my gift killed my child.
The ONLY way I would is knowing my child wouldn't want me to blame myself
But if you were in this father's shoes, should you really blame yourself? You wouldn't have known any more than he did what it was or what it had on it. Something as simple as a pen used by people who worked with dangerous chemicals could get chemical radiation on it and not know and not even thinking one worker puts it on his desk, forgets it's radioactive and takes it home giving it to a family member. You could have bought a charm bracelet that maybe was found in Chernobyl and sold by someone and never knew. It would never be your fault unless you knew ahead of time what it really was or what it was exposed to but you didn't. It would never be your fault.
@@Tigressa101 how you logically behave and how you would emotionally behave in such circumstances are two different things.
People can tell you it's not your fault and you can try to rationalise this but at the same time you'd be wishing you could rollback time unable to escape huge guilt because your child's condition is a result of your actions.
I would probably kill myself. That's it. Couldn't imagine living with that
Finally get to save some money
The actor who played the dad is ridiculously talented. I felt his pain.

“The chances of radiation causing CNS symptoms is-“
*geiger counter has a seizure*
Foreman: 👁👄👁
Believe me, if radiation was high enough to cause CNS symptoms, that giger counter wouldn't be ticking, it would be a continuous buzz from the sensor being overloaded. Giger counters aren't designed to measure high levels of radiation, they're used to discover the location of of it, a sort of "Hot or Cold" sensor.
@@Audiodump except we're talking prolonged exposure. Radiation exposure is cumulative so high short term burst = medium medium term burst.
@@drewpamon I have a master's in medical dosimetry. I am aware that different rates of radiation exposure cause different effects at different thresholds, its kind of the basis of my entire profession. But for true CNS symptoms- not CNS symptoms caused by a tumor like in this show- you'd be looking at massive doses. CNS symptoms appear in Acute Radiation Syndrome 50gy whole body exposure. To put that in context, the firefighters at chernobyl were exposed to 7 to 13 gray and 10gy is generally considered the 100% fatal range. Slow exposure like this wouldn't cause true CNS symptoms.
One of the doctors said that he was exposed to 70,000 chest xrays, that’s equivalent to 700 roentgen
@@italiansduke8865 it's not great but it's not terrible
This is one of the saddest episodes. Every other time it's someone's pride, someone's ignorance, but this time it was a father's love that resulted in the sickness of his son.
There was another episode with a little kid as the patient. It turned out his older brother (also a kid) was overdosing him on drugs trying to make him healthy.
@@coffeeaddict9605 yeah, excess vitamin gummies
@@mauz791 Yeah, wasn't it specifically the iron that hurting him?
Respectfully I find the episode with the crane falling to be a much sadder episode
This is also ignorance. Radioactive materials don't get dumped to junkyards for this very reason. Same with Biohazardous materials. These things aren't jokes, they WILL put people in bodybags if not handled with absolute care.
When House tells Chase and Foreman that it's radiation, Chase leaves instantly because he has complete faith in House's deductions, whereas Foreman stays because he always questions him. Nice attention to detail and consistency from these characters.
Chase be like "That's several levels of nope."
Good eye
I think chase was just scared which makes total sense.
To be fair, House IS wrong multiple times every episode before he stumbles across the correct diagnosis. 😅
Or Chase leaves because he's a "coward" (aka has a healthy level of self-preservation) and Foreman and House don't.
i like this episode because something just like that actually happened in brazil decades ago. a dad gave his little girl a beautiful glowing blue powder he found while working in a junkyard (he found a really heavy metal capsule and opened it, revealing the blue powder, he had no idea what it was, but he found it pretty so he took it home. Everyone in the family and neighborhood played with the powder and the girl kept it under her bed at night. A few days later, everyone started showing symptoms of radiation poisoning and it was chaos because a LOT of people were affected due to working, studying or taking public transportation with someone who got in contact with the blue powder. some more, some less. Police found out it was cesium-137 from old medical equipment wrongfully dumped in the junkyard, the whole family died days later (the little girl being the most affected) and everyone had to be buried in lead caskets and concrete boxes to make sure they weren’t radioactive to visitors. It was a true tragedy, those who didn’t die at the time, died later with cancer and other radiation related issues.
Most House MD cases are based on actual cases that occurred. They obviously turn up the drama for the events occuring but it was based on a real case, as you provided info for.
He wanted to make a ring for his wife from this metal, do not confuse the facts
@@Javierblaszczyk it’s a similar story man, both about people mishandling hazardous/radioactive substances because they mistake them for trivial stuff and then causing some serious damage afterwards. it’s a tv show, not a documentary
That's so freaking horrifying. That's a horror movie.
People who just throw away radiation are soulless heartless monsters who deserves to feel the exact same pain they caused the innocent victims.
@@Maria-gd2wr I know
Unless the father trespass a property that has a sign that says "Radioactive" and get the metal from there, it's not his fault.
It was from a piece of equipment someone illegaly dumped
Sign? Do you know how many idiots don't read signs till after the fact literally there's a channel on here that shows how stupid ppl can't read they park at this business parking lot which doesn't have many parking lots and they have signs up all over for customers ONLY only a few ppl read the sign and left the lot or came back before the tow truck got there
you being sarcastic, don't you
The father worked at junk yard. And found that plumb at yard
Considering you're commenting on a House M.D. video, I'd assume you watch the show, but it seems kinda obvious that you don't. Otherwise you'd realize that there's a MASSIVE difference between SHAME, and BLAME. This Father, whether he knowingly did so or not, STILL SET IN MOTION, the events that killed his son. Now, he has the blame, but does that mean he NEEDS TO FEEL SHAME? OF COURSE NOT! All it means is that he realize and come to terms with the fact that he had some role to play, but it was an unknowing role, and to use that knowledge to dull the pain of losing his son as much as possible. Obviously nothing can really ease the pain- ever, but the truth is a start. Lying to yourself and saying that he had no part to play whatsoever is not going to help anyone. He set the wheels in motion, whether intentionally or not- that is exactly what determines whether he should feel shame and guilt for his sons death. If he wanted to kill his son, obviously he needs to feel shame, but in this case there's no logical reason to feel shame as obviously he could've had no way of knowing. Still, this DOES NOT MEAN, he played NO PART WHATSOEVER. You're saying "unless" he did these things he played no part, which is inaccurate, he played a part in his sons death period, end of story. But again, that does not under any circumstances mean that he needs to SHAME HIMSELF for something that HE DID NOT KNOWINGLY CAUSE. I think you're also confusing pain and shame here. Just because the Father is devastated over losing his son doesn't mean he feels responsible, he could be like House and think about things only in a logical way- for example there was an episode where a kid crashed his ATV and got severe burns, the Father was an emotional wreck and said "I killed our son!", whereas this Father was obviously distraught, but for obvious reasons, his son was dying. He never once implied that he killed his son, but you're seeing it as he did because you're not intelligent enough to discern the difference between shame and pain. You only think that he killed his son, because deep down YOU PERSONALLY BELIEVE HE DID, because I'm here telling you logically it's obvious that he didn't so why on God's Green Earth are you making an argument for the illogical? It's because you like the drama of the story and many people are actually addicted to feeling shame- it makes them feel human. So inadvertently you're projecting your own desire to FEEL SHAME, onto this character, who has NO MORAL BASIS, to feel shame whatsoever, and everyone can clearly and logically tell that, except for you apparently, otherwise you wouldn't of needed to make this comment. Whoops.
As much as House likes to be a smart ass, he knows when its time to be (mostly) serious, like the moment he began to suspect radiation exposure, he went on high alert and limped at full speed across the hospital.
Idk why but the phrase "limped at full speed" makes me laugh like crazy.
I mean radioactivity and (in another episode) smallpox ordeals are no laughing matter hence why once they were discovered, House had no snappy one liners throughout the remainder of the respective episodes. It's such a dangerous medical situation that there aren't any jokes even people like House can come up with.
his job in the hospital is rarely to rush so when you see it..just really hits homr
Because anything involving radioactive material is nothing to simply scoff at or joke with. If doctors have even an inkling of an idea that a patient potentially has hazardous radioactive items on hand, they immediately take action by quarantining said material and contact government officials to have the material safely removed without contaminating other people in the process.
Limp speed ahead!
Literally wasn't his dad fault at all, it's illegal to dump radioactive waste. That's like saying it's your fault if you bite into candy and there's a razor in it, ofc it's not, it's whoever put the razor there.
Another analogy is if you gifted your kid an apple you found in the park and it had a razor blade in it. Taking the apple wasn't a great idea but it seemed like an innocent gesture and you would never guess it could cause that much harm.
i like razer chocolate
What if i purposely buy my kid a Razer laptop that costs 3000 dollars for his birthday and he throw it away because it wasnt a pony unicorn, for which i strangle him till he die that ungreatful son of a bitch. Is it illegal to do that?? Asking for a friend
Adam Cureface II How old is your kid lol
In case of the boy dying, Carnell's father can sue the owners of the machine of where the radioactive piece came from.
The man had a perfectly legit business in salvage but felt he and his son would be looked down on, so he lied about his business. That's so sad . Now he also knows his gift is what may kill his son. Too much pain to bear. I actually cried even though this is a made up story the actors gave such a convincing performance I got wrapped up in the story too much and had to talk myself out of the tears.
Dunno if you read the other top comments, bad sadly this story is based on a true one that happened in Brazil, with a guy finding a glittery powder and gifting it to his daughter because it looked neat, and she played with it with other people and kept it under her bed, and then everyone died of brutal radiation poisoning because they went around a lot, and those who survived that wave of deaths still died of cancer later on.
You know, I like to think that this is all made up episodes too but in reality unfortunately. This is actually someone's reality out there.
He couldn't have known. U would go and find the person who dumped that thing if it took the rest of my life. Because they KNEW they were risking such a thing.
This has happened many times, sometimes we don't figure it out years later.
Stuff like this really happens
I love Foreman here. His eyes are always the father's during the news delivery. Constantly watching, listening and caring. His first words after the news is reassuring him that he wasn't at fault.
Foreman tends to be nicer to patients he identifies with. It’s true for House too but it’s more clear since House is usually so terrible but extremely rare and more a moment in an episode than than the whole time.
House standing right in front of a radioactive source be like : "now its time to pose and think"
He probs tripped out on vicodin
Nah i think it was more like "this object will bring me closer to death, i need to savour this moment"
"Maybe I'll mutate enough to spawn a working leg."
Nekolalia the best comment ever
The exposure was minimal and too short, so nothing bad
"if you wanted to be a doctor maybe you should've... buckled down a little more in high school"

It’s worth mentioning that there have been instances where scrap metal has been the cause of radioactive contamination. The Goiania incident saw a canister used for medical scans found by scrap metal dealers and then opened. The resulting radiation killed several people.
This is a very well acted and written story.
The darling little girl who played with the pretty blue talcum powder..
it wasn't found. it was stolen from a medical clinic and had warning signs on it.
Remember Marie Curie? She invented a glowy chemical that she loves to keep in her pocket. People still wear hazmat suits whenever handling her belongings.
Why are you framing it like she was some idiot? She was a scientist, with two Nobel prizes, died of a sickness that was the result of constant exposure during experiments.

It's like they pour all their love into you
Yup.
Something that this ep also showed that often happens is about what the father said when house told him about the construction job lies. It is true for many minorities that lying about what job they do will get them better treatment at hospitals. Its an unspoken "rule" in some areas.
Also, that hazardous waste is often dumped in or near communities of color, and POC were often segregated to areas zoned for industrial use.

What I love about House and other medical shows is that the reality of it is sometimes you lose. Going into a case and being sure that the patient will survive is nice but every once in awhile you get someone who doesn't. It makes it much easier to connect and relate to each patient.
Wife died, then his son, from his 'gift'. Say what you will about how he shouldn't blame himself. When you're all alone in a house where 2 other people used to live, family, and you know they're never coming back, bad thoughts will come. In his instance, it wouldn't take much to crack. And he works in a salvaging company, which means, probably no insurance for the procedure. What do you have to live for at the point?
I would put the dad in suicide watch
God giveth and taketh for a reason. Everyone must fight these feelings of hopelessness even when there is no reason to have hope. I am a prime example of that and so is a very close friend of mine name Mike. He seen every single person he ever loved killed in front of him from a car crash and yet he still battles on like if nothing ever happened and is starting a family of his own now. People must understand life is not all rainbows and unicorns and even where evil perils love can break the chains of sorrow.

I think it's because it's the most unfair one. It's a case where the patients were loving and caring for each other, and they suffer because of it.

As part of the Goiânia radioactive accident, a father retrieved some Ceasium-137 powder from scraps found in a junkyard, previously stolen from an abandoned clinic. Fascinated by the colour and glowing, he passed on the floor of the house and gave some for Leide, his 6 y.o. daughter. The kid was one of the deads and became a symbol of the accident.
That whole story is just a horror show
Hmm.. Pretty blue sparkly talcum powder.. Daddy why am I exorcist vomiting parts of my internal organs all the time...?
Also in Peru, a guy found a funny looking bradded wire which was actually from a device used to x-ray scan a hydro electric dam. Guy lost his leg and…..other parts….as a result of putting it in his back pocket. My guess is this episode is referencing that case
People tried to stop that girl’s body from being buried.

The sad part for me is the dad 9:54 has to lie to his son who he loves SO much that he will recover.
He didn’t have to lie. He CHOSE to lie. It just made things worse because he’s already a liar and Carnell begged his father to tell him the truth, and he couldn’t even do that. He deserved to know his real prognosis.

Don’t know why i thought about this, but I’m starting to think that ancient artifacts that are believed to be cursed are actually radioactive
I really don’t know why this popped into my head
It wouldn't surprise me. The fear of the unknown often turns to superstition. I'm sure there have been a few 'cursed' items that were radioactive, or poisonous, and lack of understanding of that fact lead to supernatural conclusions.
Yah no shit
because there is a corrélation between curses and actual diseases. There are some reports of cursed artefacts that are in fact infected by spores, fungus, patient 0 things like that.
Like how a magnetic ore could have been treated as sorcery or so
The stuff that people could get their hands on way back when wouldn't be strong enough to kill them quickly. The reason this guy's son would have had this reaction is if the material has been heavily refined.

clifton powell is one of the most underrated actors ever
He is a phenomenal character actor!
Is he the father? He was great in this episode.
Pinkies didn’t do too well...smh
didnt he play the dad in the 2001 horror movie bones.
Im not crying. U r
The guy who played the dad is an excellent actor
So sad. No matter what this father says, at the end of the day, he will forever go to sleep thinking he killed his son.
3:36 love how Chase stares at the geiger counter, then runs away as soon as House lets him
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiger_counter
That's because if you pay attention to Chase's character he's more of the type to listen to house while Foreman is more of the type to always have a question which is why Foreman stayed behind.
@@christinagoodson5442 or chase just doesnt take chances when it comes to radiation
Yet NONE of them are wearing anything close to what could be considered proper CBRN equipment.
*No one:*
*UA-cam recommended: “A father’s radioactive gift destroys his son’s insides”*
No fucking Doubt about it dude! lmao
Me: *watches a music video of 'Radioactive' by Imagine Dragons*
UA-cam: hey look at this!
Same here.
Literally go here from Snow White with the Red Hair. No idea how this was considered a "suggested" by the stupid algorithm.
This meme is garbage.
This was a tough episode. Clifton Powell (The Dad) is a such an amazing actor.
Very underrated
"I'm scared Dad".
As a father this brought a shiver down my spine. Imagine being so helpless and knowing there is nothing you can do to save your child. Heartbreaking.
The dad’s acting is incredible, It literally made my chest hurt watching his reactions
that's great acting really looks like he's in pain hard to believe it's just an act
Cinematography is on point.
When Wilson and the father talked, the father was looking up at Wilson and Wilson down on the father, the symbolism is just so damn good.
what does that mean though?
@@hafeeez87 Wilson is offering support and comfort by listening to the father while he’s vulnerable shown by him being in a hospital gown, the camera angles, and his general state. Wilson also has the overhead light behind his head which kinda makes him look like an angel tbh.
And I’m pretty sure Wilson was the one who brought this case to the team. He’s the one who guided the father and son since the beginning.
8:54 why did I start crying... this was one of the saddest episodes :(
I love Clifton Powell range of acting it’s impeccable
Smithers: "Well sir, where should we dump this batch? The playground?"
Burns: "No, all those bald children are arousing suspicion. To the park!"
I hate that I laughed at this
The dad is a great actor. You feel his guilt and sadness and trying hard to be a great dad
Clifton powell is an excellent actor.
I will never forget this episode, because it was the best acting I've ever seen from a supporting character in the whole 8 seasons... the father in this episode (Clifton Powell?) is in my opinion, the best actor who has ever been on this show besides Hugh Laurie. I remember having to pause the episode multiple times the first time I watched it, because his acting was so god damm powerful that I had to keep getting my composure back so I didn't miss any major plot points!
Father: So my son has a tumor inside of his spinal cord?
Dr. Foreman: Yes, but the surgeon should be able to pull the strands apart and excise the tumor.
Father: That's a relief! Who's the surgeon?
Dr. Foreman: His name is Dr. Duntsch, he's flying in from Texas right now...
father: wait Dr Duntsch
dr foreman: yes Dr manly man man duntsch
father he is weird
I find the sound of a Geiger counter going off creepy, especially how it slowly gets more and more intense. It’s a sound that honestly scares me, because of what it signifies! An invisible poison permeating around you, breaking down and damaging your body.
I would of ran out of that room as soon as I heard that thing go off!!
You should watch Chernobyl
You'd love a ludlum-139 lol
Air raid sirens give me the biggest chills
I collect radium clocks. The Geiger noises are quite fascinating.
@Platinum Garage Are you not creeped out by what that sound signifies? That there are invisible particles that could be destroying your DNA?
This is the first time that I’ve seen this man as a good guy. Tyler Perry’s movies villainized him 😭
😭😭😭
What about pinky?
😢😢😢😭😭😭😢😭😭
That was TD Jake's, not Tyler perry
@@kimberlywhitehead22 not only did I not say that was Tyler Perry, that is definitely not TD Jakes…it’s Clifton Powell 😐
The acting of the father in this episode was flawless. He felt real, versus just some throw away character with crappy acting.
The way the dad's eyes watered. You immediately feel itm great actors all around
They're using a device called a Ludlum... and it definetly doesn't make those sounds, it beeps lol.
That and the geiger counter is not beeping hard enough
Most radiotherapy sources like this are gamma so irl the Geiger counter would probably detect high radiation level as soon as it was turned on
The fact that the dad felt so guilty after hearing that his early graduation gift he gave his son was radioactive and making him sick
Really loving the titles on this one. Can’t wait for “House trips so hard he thinks cuddy slept with him”
HMMM
The title had me disgusted
r/hmmm
I mean, that happened.
they already uploaded that clip and unfortunately they didn't use a title like that. they called it "When House loses his marbles or something". Your title would have been much better XD
The best part of this is that he gave him that to "keep him humble" and "remind him where he came from".
The father's trying to keep is son down (as SO many parents do) and it wound up killing him... tragic.
@6:00 really got to me.
That’s some good acting.
So basically every house episode only has like a ten minute chunk where you can get the jist of the entire episode?
House is largely not about the cases. Generally the cases are there to supplement the characters.
Just watch the series and stop making assumptions
No not really. Maybe 20-30 minutes. The episodes always have a back and forth with House making assumptions about the character of the patient(s) and their family where House is usually at least 75% correct. But you have to watch most of it to realize if it's an episode that highlights House's genius where is "he is right even when he is a little wrong", or if it's an episode where House was projecting his pain and emotions onto the patient and we get more incite into House's character.
@@sgm7650 he is right though. These clips just cut out the formulaic "House is totally right but a certain member of the team clashes with him because he can't possibly be right but after bullying the doctor enough House turns out to be right" segment.
Kinda? The tension is kind of lost. These episodes cause unexpected things to jump up for a sudden dramatic reveal which doesn't hit as hard without sitting with the characters.
Man...this really hits ya hard. I cannot imagine the pain of knowing you have inadvertently cause your child's death from a metal gift you didn't know was radioactive.
2:22 That entrance.
Sad thing, if the Father never lied about his work, there would have been a slim chance of saving his son.
they could have found the Caesium-137 much earlier and have a bone transplant earlier and prevent his bone marrow from failing.
As per usual with any topic about radioactivity:
"Not good, not terrible."
Chernobyl
@@Jonssi05 made all future nuclear reactors better due to increased safety regulations
@@iFkNxLegend Yis very much
I love the actor playing the Dad. He's got a very interesting face.
Like, Eddi Murphy's
Clifton Powell from Menace II Society
The actor playing the Dad is great.
Thats a rather curious compliment ive never heard before. I like it. Im going to think of people I can compliment on having an interesting face.
@@Svoorhout85 It's better than just "handsome," IMO. There are handsome men that I wouldn't look at twice; but a face that's interesting keeps me looking at it.
This scenario haunts me. I'm a med student and thinking of telling a parent that their child is dying is something I can't describe.
How are things going? Did you graduate? Hopefully you're doing ok now as a full-fledged medical professional.
"I never wanted him to forget where he came from"
Well now he'll never have the chance to...great job.
Really sad episode😔 imagine how guilty did the father feel…
Yeah he basically killed his only son.
Does the patient live?
@@foolslayer9416 nope he dies
@@MrRepoman197 That's unfortunate.
Sad
The face of the father when he realises he pretty much killed his son, breaks my heart every time.
Here is why radioactive materials are so dangerous.
Excellently written, directed, and performed. You just want to take that man in your arms and hold him to lessen the despair.
House: *Founds something radioactive*
Also House: *TOUCH*
3:50 if you ask me there's nothing that sounds more terrifying than a Geiger counter going nuts. Except HBO Chernobyl where the rooftop Geiger counters are practically screaming.
That is pretty much one 0f the most radioactive shits ever!
as someone who works in an industry where we use that sort of thing to inspect our welds, seeing the exposed source just sitting there makes my skin crawl
Here's a fact to keep you up at night
There are many cases of missing sources where the source is not yet recovered
I've seen many Kyle Hill videos, but those are usually something hot or glowing that stands out, and is radioactive. This was just a seemingly-benign piece of metal that no one would think to check beforehand. Heartbreaking, really
