That teenager putting his own life in danger without hesitation to save that boy by diverting the pit bull’s attention onto him is without a doubt the definition of heroism. He is amazingly selfless and courageous. His parents/guardians raised him right. Then seeing him give the boy a hug made me tear up. Such a traumatic experience they shared.
that is going to be an epic big brother in the babie's life.
For real. He's so brave.
He is a true hero. Idk how long the boy would have lasted if it weren't for him and with those kinds of attacks every second counts. Even with how quick it was, the boy still got cuts and wounds on his face and head! It really would have been a different ending if he wasn't so quick.
That’s a teenager?
@Super Boy it's a strange kind of human that lives in caves and eats fast food while complaining about stuff
I am truly just in awe over the young man who literally ran towards danger to help that little boy being mauled. He is an extraordinary human being
I couldn’t have done that
if my dad saw that he would of brung my bat and beat the dog with it
Most of us are deeply biologically ingrained to run away from danger. It's in our nature for our survival. He's a rare and special case, a true hero at his core. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes into the military or becomes a fire fighter and becomes very successful with his natural affinity as a rescuer.
Honestly that dog has got to go. Can't have it attacking random people.
@@tochionyeador3397
It was most likely put down. Pitbulls, in places where they're not illegal, have a "one bite" rule. The moment they bite someone, they have to be put down. At least, that's the case where I live.
And the fact the owner(s) even had a pitbull that they let be aggressive, and no doubt probably barked a lot, is stupid of them. They should've properly trained it, and if they couldn't, they shouldn't have owned one in the first place.
That baby catch was INSANE if you stop to think about what had to go into that response time. He had to go from seeing, to processing, to yelling, to running, to catching all within seconds. I find it hard to believe that that was anything other than an engrained compassion and instinct to protect. Was it even his conscious decision to save his brother or is that just who he is deep down? That was nuts. That baby has an amazing older brother
He better have gotten ice cream after that!
I would have been SO PISSED at my mom if I saw that dude
In perceived emergency situations your brain skips sending info to the “conscious processing” department entirely to save time, and acts purely on instinct. Although it’s not necessarily a reflection of “character” or “personality,” yes, you could say that that is just “who he is” inside.
11:45 I instantly started crying at this one because the teenager had to legitimately be so fcking brave. To save a kid that’s a stranger or just a neighbor. It’s also so impactful when you think about how terrifying that is for a child vs a more prepared adult. Taking the threat away from an innocent kid when you’re probably terrified too… what a hero
yea he probably knew it was going to result into him being attacked by the dog but did it anyway because he was more concerned about the young boys safety that is very selfless if you ask me
he was brave but come on why are you even crying its not sad its happy
@@robciubobciuBecause people can be moved to tears by happy and beautiful things and seeing others do amazing and good things.
@@MoonBeamLight its kinda overreacting but ok
@@robciubobciu You just have very limited emotional range if you think crying is an overreaction
That baby saving the other baby makes me amazed at how the human body can just pull strength out of nowhere in dire situations. (+a bit of adrenaline)
And how instinctive it is to humans to help another human in distress. Any kind of apathy towards other humans is something we unfortunately learn as we age 😞
@@meikusjebeing a twin myself, we look out for each other, always.
The adrenaline is the REASON we can do that.
@@weebandgaminginc.7593
Same goes for that kid who caught his little sibling(i forgot if it's his brother or sister), he said he isn't a fast runner or strong enough to carry it, but I'm sure he managed to run quick enough and hold it up because of his adrenaline rush
@@em90012 yep
I have to say how proud I am of the last lady to coordinate her own rescue. She was truly brave!
her crazy boyfriend cared more for the dog than her.
Such a huge risk for her to do that.
Absolutely. It made me tear up. You could see how shaky her handwriting was how scared she must have been. I hope she got away from him for good.
Yes! So smart, so brave of her. She deserves to be treated so well. I hope she is doing well 💞
@@missakite5678 it's that or being killed by that prick. I think she made a good choice.
I'm not a person who normally cries but this video got me emotional, especially that last one. Mike is such a good person, teaching us stuff like he did in video, and not just teaching it to us, but explaining like we're 5 with simple words. Excellent job Dr Mike.
Exactly what i was going to say! Kudos to you, Dr. Mike! Being able to explain big concepts in tiny words is a HUGE indicator of intelligence, at least for me!
I love what Doctor Mike said about using humor and not making her the target-that’s very validating to me as someone who has spent a lot of time in hospitals and had some doctors and nurses make fun of me-they act like it’s just teasing but sometimes it really isn’t, and is harmful. Like gaslighting being played off as a joke
if they are gaslighting you just a disclaimer that is a form of emotional abuse and if they are they must be high as hell thinking thats okay and also people want you to trust the health care system meanwhile they are picking on you it really shouldnt be a supprise why some people dont like going to the doctor or the hospital i have heard of people suffering from pain and avoiding the doctor because they are worried that they wont believe them and in return they will try and ignore the pain to the point it gets so bad that when they do they are forced and are sometimes met with the un pleasuring greeting it as they are playing it off as they are overthinking it we really need people to be more aware these days
As a mortician I cannot express how right you are about not turning your back on a child near water or on an elevated surface. It happens so fast in baths and puddles.
Props to you for what you do, idk if I could handle it. I'm sure it's hard, especially to see dead babies.
You're a mortician? To me that sounds like a pretty tough job...
i always made sure to keep a hand on my siblings if i turned, whenever i was taking care of them. that's the only reason my extremely wiggly little sister didn't tumble many times over lol
I'm living proof of that. My family was at a hotel pool when I was really young and didn't know how to swim yet. Someone must've turned their back and I went in the pool alone. Luckily, someone saved me.
@@Silver_Red4248 they plan the details of a funeral (they are also considered a funeral director) according to google I guess.
Yesterday my friends’ son dropped dead at school from an undiagnosed congenital heart defect. He was resuscitated twice with chest compressions before he even made it to the hospital. The odds of him surviving were extraordinarily low, but he made it through because of the hard work of the school nurse and the EMTs who kept him alive until he could get to the hospital. CHEST COMPRESSIONS, CHEST COMPRESSIONS, CHEST COMPRESSIONS!
Bump so dr Mike can see this comment
@@gabor6259 not sure but the comment says it was a congenital heart defect, which means it was present from birth. Probably was not the result of an mRNA vaccine
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, and love all over the world, I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don't mind. I'm Doctor Christopher Johnson from San Francisco, California, where are you from if I may ask
yes
The school nurse should’ve just thrown some ice at him and he would’ve healed immediately lol 😂
As someone who has been in the midst of IPV, I have never heard it called that. I am so thankful that you included that in your video. I never thought it would happen to me, but anyone struggling -- ask someone for help! You think it is your fault or you deserve it, but no matter what, you simply DO NOT!!! 💜
That teen that saved that kid is amazing, we need more people in the world like that.
Or maybe , we can be the one. Why always expect from others ?
Not enough kudos to that teacher for saving the kid, she immediately performed the Heinrich maneuver without hesitation and made no mistakes, overall great teacher who clearly cares for her kids.
Fr i wonder if all teachers are taught that or she just knew how to do it bcs she did it rlly well and immediately worked
@@crystalwu7400 Naw, but she prob took a cpr lesson in college
@@crystalwu7400 *not CPR, probably a class in paramedic training
I literally started crying seeing this
Plus the way she cupped his face and made sure he was alright immediately afterwards goes to show how much she cares for her students
The IPV one made me tear up. This girl was so brave to do that, so smart, and she saved herself. Kudos to the vets for helping her.
Honestly same, it made me cry, that had to be so scary
Ik im glad they took her seriously. Hopefully she feels safe again
like imagen being like no no no no no no thank you i will not get a partner now
Me too I hate how this world has people like that
it hits so close to home and I've never been in an abusive relationship. it just made me cry so much, because I know people who have been in these relationships and I'm so taken aback by how they think it's all their fault.
None of my babies ever fell of the changing table because I changed them on the floor. Knowing that I might have to get one or the other item I needed at some time, this was the solution that solved the problem once and for all. Most of the things that make a baby comfortable on a changing table work perfectly fine on the floor, the baby can roll any direction it wants to - you'll find it eventually - most importantly - unharmed. I highly recommend this method.
Or bars
I'm glad you touched on the appropriate use of humor in emergencies. I'm approaching my 6th year as an EMT, I've worked on the street in an ambulance and in the hospital as an ER/ED technician and met plenty of freshly minted docs , medics and RNs in emergency medicine who, for lack of a better term, act too seriously. I hope, much like I did, more of these greener than grass newcomers to emergency medicine find your channel and learn even while being entertained.
While I was lucky enough to have FTOs and partners that shared their experience on this topic, my own sort of trial by fire that was an important lesson for me. We were running an interfacility transfer for an older male who fell almost 12 feet off a free-standing ladder, X-Ray confirmed pelvic fracture in 2 spots, total dislocation and separation of the left femur at the hip and knee and suspected bleeding in the pelvic bowl. Level 3 trauma center received him by personal vehicle, and we were moving him to a level 1 trauma center. He was conscious, alert and aware by 4 even on a pretty serious cocktail of narcs and understandably scared. We couldn't have family on board because of local SOPs and space restrictions in the unit because we were in a sprinter van and not a full-sized box. I found out he's a Marine who spent some time in an eastern Asian country during conflict, which happened to be the same place and time my own grandfather was an active Marine. The instant rapport that built allowed me to join him in making jokes that might otherwise seam out of place for other people. As we pulled up to the receiving hospital, he asked me if he was going to die. I guess you can call it a twist on SGM Daly's quote from 1918, but I told him "We all die, it's just a matter of time, but do you want to live forever". Again, it probably seams off color too most people, but in the moment, it got a good laugh from the old devil dog even as we unloaded.
I wish this story ended on a more positive note, the level 1 center took him in and into surgery, but he went into cardiac arrest in the OR, and they weren't able to get him back. The family contacted our agency sometime later and said even as they were prepping him for surgery, he was in high spirits, making jokes and laughing even as the anesthesiologist put him under. I like to think that short time in the back of the unit with me was a contributing factor in keeping him positive and made what happened to be the last minutes of his life as comfortable and positive as they could have been for him and his family.
So sorry to hear that! Really goes to show how important good humor can be.
Tldr
@@YashvardhanMemoryTricks a well placed funny and good laugh make emergencies easier to cope with for patients.
I do think it made a difference for him, his last moments were actually happy instead of scared, what else can anyone wish for

As a survivor of IPV, thank you. A lot of people will say, “just leave” but that is easier said than done in a lot of situations. I was in the relationship for two years before I was able to get help, and my doctor was my hero in that situation. I’m so grateful that he believe me and came to my rescue in a way I didn’t expect.
I’m so happy you’re okay 💜
well done for fighting that disease 👍👍👍
Some problems don't stay put when you "just leave".
I'm glad it sounds like you got away from it.

I hate when people say “Just leave”
It just automatically tells me that they are immature and barely know surface level knowledge about IPV.
So glad you got to a better situation.
I love how doctor mike goes above and beyond “reacting” to a video, he explains every situation, what to do, how to prevent, and overall shows empathy towards everyone involved. He goes above and beyond the roll of a doctor and a UA-camr.
to prevent damages
@Kamelia.M I'm sure you can do it, although medical school is hard as long as you have the determination you can do it, cheers mate.
@Kamelia.M Same here
@Kamelia.M don’t procrastinate it may seem good in the moment but it’s bad in the long run good luck in your career I know you will become just as good as dr mike
Yes. Love how he explains what to do and why!
Honestly, the advice to pinpoint a specific person to call 911 is really on point. Its part of the bystander effect; if you dont designate one person to call, everyone will be assuming you dont mean them, and someone else will do it. Then no one calls. Or, on the other end of the spectrum, EVERYONE will call and flood the lines to 911. Thats a main thing i was taught in my first aid class and with how a group will act in that situation, its better to give the job to one person.
Yup, that's exactly a standard for first aid trainings. I was lucky enough that in my work, people in charge understood this and we were also pushing for at least one training a year. If you go through enough trainings, your confidence is much bigger in such situations and you simply start acting. And sometimes it's enough when one person begins to help, others will join.
If you are the first, you take charge and give other people who join single tasks. If someone who joined states that he is a medical or rescue worker, you just give them a lead. If you join, you have to judge if situation is under control or if everyone is panicking. That's not easy and requires training. Such trainings should start at school.
We were pushing for such trainings because of industrial climbing. We just wanted to be trained in bad situations that could happen during our work. One part was climbing rescue and evacuation and other was first aid.
For many years now I always carry with me a small first aid kit and so far I was lucky to use it only on scratches, small cuts and occasional headache.
@@karenbertke3149 It's like with a condom. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it 😁
The little child saving his little brother from the desk fallen onto him and the little one saving himself was a great effort made by them
That kid catching his baby sibling was insane! Go kid!
Ikr
The kid is a hero for real I'm thankful their ok
fr im glad he noticed
Not even out of grade school yet already has that dad reflex going
That poor mother mustve been sick afterwards. Honest mistake.
Ex-Veterinary Nurse here, the wheelbarrow technique is super important, thank you for mentioning that!! Lifting the hind legs throws the dog off balance and decreases the likelihood of being bitten.
Worked in a kennel for 9 months. They taught us nothing about how to defend ourselves from aggressive or even just over-excited dogs, and I have the scars to prove that :/
I think it is ridiclous how long we have let stronger large breeds be unregulated and bred and anyone without any training can adopt one, that they end up abused and neglected till they hurt someone or just die miserably, the animals and society suffers.
I've never heard of that before today, very good to know!
I saw a video once of someone breaking up a dog fight, I think between their sled dogs or something like that, using that technique. And that's the way I learned about doing that and I've never forgotten lol
Thank you for this.
...Six years I was forced to endure horrific abuse by my partner. He would routinely clean his guns in front of me and then "check the sights," while pointing the gun not directly at me but sort of to the side. He did this while we had "talks," meaning he would be screaming and insulting me. I am so glad that my child and I are out of that situation now... Thank you for showing that clip.
3:50 that kid has a future in football, in all seriousness amazing act of heroism to save his younger sibling. Well done lad
“I can’t even carry him so I don’t know how that happened… and I can’t even run that fast!”
Sounds like the kid had his first adrenaline rush. Good on him saving his younger sibling!
That kid sure is a model older brother
And also a hero
well thank god for adrenalin i believe it said in the video but baby's and infants bones are more soft and they are more prone to bad injuries compared to that of an adult
He's never gonna have to worry about bullies with that older brother around.
@@feraltaco4783 just show em the video and say to the bullies: think of what im gonna do to you" *joke*
IPV survivor here... that last clip had me bawling. I'm so lucky I was able to get out because of my friends and loved ones encouraging me, giving me resources, offering to help me... but also a clerk who saw me flinch when my ex touched me. He went outside to get something from the car, and she gave me the biggest hug, telling me I didn't deserve what he was doing to me. She passed me the phone number for the local women's crisis center before I left. When a complete stranger embraces you with that much empathy... it hits differently. I hope that lovely woman is doing better for herself now.
I'm glad you're still here with us honey
@@perthfalcon You seem like a kind person ❤️ wishing you good health,love and safety!!
That made me tear up, she probably doesn't even know the kind of impact she had on your life. I hope you are doing well. Take care 💓

@@anakhanair_ Those monsters ONLY pick good, kind people to break. Trust me. They're incredibly jealous of us being good people, that's why.
That kid and the baby are bloody legends
Those cpr pop ups are a perfect example of an influencer/famous person to use their platform to spread quality meaningful lessons that on a large scale can only help never hinder. Best case someone can now act in aid of another because you're pop up tutorials helped them lean a skill that quite literally savez lives
That little boy who saved the falling baby was amazing!! "I can't even run that fast!"
Adrenaline literally can give you speed and strength you don’t normally have.
@@byuftbl Yeah there's even been instances where people have been trapped under cars and a single person lifted up that part of the car enough to free the person.
@@gagetaylor192 I heard of a child lifting a goddamned truck just to release a sibling too
I am so proud of the brave woman on the last clip. She risked her own life to save it at the same time. I'm a domestic violence victim myself and I'm here to say how very uneasy it can be to try an escape an abusive situation. I'm so proud of her for standing up and taking action.

The video of the woman at the vet made me cry and gave me chills. I'm so glad that she was able to think so quickly and get herself and her dog to safety. Too many stories don't end that way...
The hockey game video freaked me out. I was having problems of passing out the last time I did I went into cardiac arrest. I was given CPR and shocked twice. My doctor finally diagnosed me with sick sinus syndrome. I’m now the proud owner of a pacer and ICD. I haven’t passed out since and so glad to be alive.
8:06 as a mother of two, the sound of that mother's shrieks, terrified for her baby, literally made me burst into tears.
Same 😭 I was okay until that point. 💔
Same. My son knows how to chew so he's more daring at putting food in his mouth and I have a huge fear of choking on myself but him especially. Any time he coughs in his highchair or when hes walking around eating, I turn around and ask "are you okay?!" And I won't breathe until he smiles and says "yeah"
Same!
I don't have children of my own, but hearing that mother's shrieks made me clap my hands to my face and cry. Absolutely gut-wrenching. I can't imagine a more terrifying situation than a parent thinking they're about to lose their baby.
im not even a mother and tbh never plan on it but i can tell some kinda instinct or smth went off bc my fight or flight kicked in for a bit i was so relieved when the guy had the suction thing lol
I got chills from that young boy being attacked. I completely forgot that I had been attacked as a child and it just sent me back 30 years. That guy that saved him really is a hero. Thats incredible!
My cousin got bit in the face by a dog (as a 7 year old) after they asked if he was safe to pat and the owner said yes it was a bad bite and you can still see a little bit of scarring
i almost got atacked by a german sheperd once when my sister saw the dog run at top speed to me and u could hear me scream bloody murder then my sister jump on top of me and got bit and guess what the owner said he said "sorry he likes long hair" and i had long hair and im like WHAT THE HELL MAN anyways that was my storie byeeee
Dog shoud be terminated immidately.
@@FalkorDragons_Official we have a german shepherd that jumps and nips and we're currently trying our best to train her not to do so. I'm so sorry that happened to you! If the dog is trained well that shouldn't happen.
@@SkiNekoKitty yes but thats ok it was a long time ago
6:06 bro as an adult I’ll be securing my furniture to the wall FOR ME 😭
man i can't explain it but i got emotional when the teacher saved that kid, put her hands around him. A moment neither will ever forget.
In Denmark, we have something called heart runners. It is a volunteer program and an app. The app dispatches up to twenty people when an emergency call comes in with a lifeless person. Some are directed to help the family, while others are required to find automatic defibrillators. I have a friend whose dad was saved by the heart runners.
That is an insanely cool program!
That is an amazing idea. Come on America, adopt these programs! We can barely keep our first responders and emergency operators from being under-funded and underpaid, it's sad.
In The Netherlands we have system called HartslagNU, which does the same thing. I’ve been a volunteer for it for 15 years now, and it works really well.
wow that's so cool
That actually sounds so cool
I have never been more happy than seeing that teacher save a child. I hope she feels amazing for what she did.

@@conboi124 When what?
8:05 I just recently had a baby, he's six weeks old. Those screams from the mother made me burst into tears in a way I've never experienced before. It honestly felt like a stab to the gut and I really wasn't prepared for it. I guess it's true what they say: once you have a child, you'll intrinsically know and feel other parents' pain.. because your mind can't help but picture your own child in the dire situation. Absolutely heartbreaking, but thank god for that man's quick thinking. So glad that baby was saved.
When I was at primary school, a boy in my class was choking on a sweet.
The teacher rushed over to him and took him to the hall where she then manage to get the sweet out and probably saving his life.
Mark Cherry, a teacher at IT Tech in Sacramento, was my dad's hero.
My dad had a minor heart attack while teaching there, but because of the way they're depicted in movies and shows, he didn't think it was a heart attack. The pain down the left arm was the big indicator to Mark, and he was the one to suggest it was a heart attack and drive my dad to the hospital. Though the first was a minor heart attack, my dad had more while being monitored, including a major one that could have killed him if he hadn't been there.
My dad's a Vietnam vet and a career Navy man before getting certified and teaching. He was going to just shrug off the pain and continue teaching. If Mark Cherry hadn't insisted and been stubborn about it, I don't want to think about what would have happened.
So here's to the unsung heroes who never make the news.
Im so glad it ended well
Mark is a hero, and your dad is a amazing person
So glad he's ok! Mark is definitely a hero! Good thing he was persisitent!
That’s so sad
One of my teachers to this day is an advocate for difibulators and thanks a special kid ever day . Our school was one out of not many to have one . Our gym teacher Mr.O had a heart attack during a class. There was one kid who new how to use it at the time and save his life. Mr.O has a pace maker till this day. And now teaches first aid in his classes no matter what
Teachers are legit the unsung hero’s of our society. They deal with so much bs from students every single day and yet, it’s so very obviously that they genuinely care about the kids they’ve been entrusted with. And they are definitely not appreciated enough. Shout out to the people who work in the education system. You guys are the true GOATs.
The heart attack story tugged at my heart strings a bit. I lost my dad 21 years ago to a massive heart attack; I was 15. He was on a fishing trip in Canada with his buddies and between them and first responders, they tried to revive him for an hour with no luck. I love that you are trying to teach everyone CPR and love the kiosk approach!!!
❤🌻
few years ago, my wife and 10 year old daughters had to watch me waste away in a wheelchair after a major heart attack, 2 and a half years i was in a wheelchair, had to have the one with the toilet bowl because i was so frail i couldnt even support my 7'7" frame to go to the toilet, slept in it every night the whole time, to this day i cant look at my daughters without remembering seeing them with red raw eyes every day from crying, im back to full health but everyday scares me now because i never want my daughters to suffer like that again

@@bigfrankfraser1391 7 foot 7? You did not mistype that sir?
My daughter choked on a hard candy when she was almost four (disclaimer: I did not give it to her, but my husband learned a valuable lesson). I'm a highly anxious person, and have wrought my mind around what I would do if ever faced with that exact situation. Despite having watched so many videos and having taken CPR classes, I was convinced that if that time ever came where my child was choking, I would panic. But I DID NOT. I remained so calm and started the heimlich while my husband ran tot get the LifeVac. After a couple of thrusts and backblows, the candy popped out. I was so surprised how calm I was and how I immediately knew what to do.
Wow, well done! This goes to show how important preparation is in these situations!
You're an absolute champion! So is your husband.🏆
Sometimes in moments of panic we do go into full eficiency mode. I've been through a couple bad panicked moments 'make a choice right now' situations and once I panicked but a couple others something just turned on in my brain and I was almost moving on auto-pilot. My little cousing fell on some broken ceramics and got a pretty bad gash on his leg. like, a piece of skin and flesh was hanging out, you could see muscle tissue. Normally for me, as also quite young, I would have freaked out. But I just started moving on auto-pilot, put his leg in the tub and under running water to clean it and then I tried to put the skin together to the leg again and tied a really really tight towel around it and called my uncle on the phone -we were home alone- so they could take him to the hospital. He needed quite a few stitches and a bandage and left a pretty gnarly scar on his leg he still has to this day. it wasn't like a super serious life or death situation but I'm shocked everytime I remember how calmly and quickly I reacted as I was also like 14 at the time.
@@KuR58e full eficiency mode is so true. I dont know if you've heard, but a couple months ago a really bad 7.8 earthquake happened in maraş(turkey). I was awake when it started and the moment it started i went into the full eficiency mode, completely calm and collected. I told my brother where to stand and how to stand, until the end of earthquake, i kept reassuring him that its gonna be okay. Hes 10 years older than me btw. After that my whole family was panicing and i suddenly took matters into my own hands telling them what to do (telling my brother to grab the powerbank, telling my father to grab the car key, telling my mom to grab the house key, telling them to grab a few clothes fast, as i went and grabbed some water and packaged food, etc.) I was fully focused and calm and we went out as fast as possible. I even went into the building alone with no fear only a few hours after the earthquake to grab some more things that we forgot to grab. This full eficiency mode lasted a few months, as i lead my family and reassured them all the time. I was completely unaffected by the earthquake psychologically and i took care of everyone despite being the youngest. (Helping mom sleep and eat, helping dad get his mind off of things by finding him things to watch, making desserts for everyone and taking care of house needs). It continued like that until everyone was fine and they no longer needed my assistance. Right after that, i collapsed psychologically. Paranoia, insomnia, ED, anxiety. I was so sure that i was okay since i was unaffected for months that it hit me like a truck when this happened. Full eficiency was over, once the need for it was gone. I made sure everyone was okay, then i had my own collapse. Surreal experience. I am doing good right now by the way.
So you are roasting your husband and complimenting yourself out of ego and pettiness Hm.
I like that Doctor Mike gives info on how to handle dogs and dog fights. A few years ago, I tried to break a dog fight between a great dane and a beagle because the beagle was going to be killed, the dane backed away and stopped, and the beagle latched onto my arm and gave me a permanent scar. Very very dangerous, I learned the hard way.
I'm pregnant and my toddler is sitting right next to me. That poor mother screaming for someone to please help her baby brought tears to my eyes. As a mother, that's one of my biggest fears. Just feeling helpless as one of my kids is fighting for their life.
Hope you teach your older child how to call 911 as soon as they are able to understand. Or to get a neighbor to help. It's amazing what little kids can do when an adult is unable to in an emergency.
I hadn't had a first aid course since I was 16, I'm now 52, I work in retail and a customer collapsed and had a cardiac arrest. All I could think in my head was 'chest compressions, chest compressions, chest compressions...' She came back in about 30 seconds thankfully, but myself and my colleague (who witnessed it and was upset and traumatised also) are now booked in for a first aid course at work! Thank you Dr.Mike. Although I did bring the lady back and the paramedics said I'd done everything right I didn't expect to feel so traumatised or shocked because I felt like I should have been just grateful that I'd saved her but it was so scary and took me at least a month to stop jumping out of my skin at every sudden noise and bursting into tears for no reason! I'm so thankful that I'd watched some videos on CPR even if I haven't yet taken another course but I'm looking foward to feeling a bit more prepared next time something like that happens! Thanks again! :)
That only means you have such an amazing heart ❤️ 💙 💜 the fact that you saved someone and you cared soo much that it stood with you, speaks so much about you. You are a hero 🙌🏽
This is why CPR is very important to learn at least once, so that you have the confidence to do it when required. Well done on bringing your patient back and well done on taking that next step to learn more.
That's amazing, I hope you fully recover from the trauma though!
Really?? Way back then, I am a little bit older, it was taught by the Red Cross years ago, 15 and 2. 15 chest compressions, 2 breaths, etc. I'm not sure when they changed it though. This was back in the 70's.
Love how the first thing he mentioned after the dog attack was in interest of the psichological well being of the child. I was attacked by a dog when I was 14 and as a result from the psichological trauma I developed OCD.
I developed trypanophobia and a lot of other medical phobias after being attacked by my aunt's dog in 1993. My parents lied and said it was a stray so her dog wouldn't be put down, but the result was having to undergo 1 rabies vaccine injection right in the belly button every freaking day for a week. I'm 32 now and I'm still trying to "get over it". The psychological trauma of that stuff for a kid really is no joke.
@@yeshummingbird Parents and aunt of the year right there *eye roll* wth is with adults sticking up for other adults who are responsible for hurting kids? I mean really...
I LOVED that Dr. Mike literally said that first. Super important. Also, most of the time childhood traumas aren’t going to “go away”. It usually just gets easier to deal with over time. Therapy can really help with learning how to live with the hard stuff we went through as kids. This coming from someone who’s lived through childhood trauma someone who also treats it.
@@yeshummingbird
I'm sorry your parents did that. They should've told the truth and, quite possibly, yelled at your aunt.
@@yeshummingbird isnt rabies and tetanus shots one of the most painful shots you can get???
8:30 An actual gigachad. 🥰
5:27 last year I choked on a granola bar in the hallway at school. When I realized, I immediately turned around, made eye contact w the first person I saw, and put my hands on my throat. The girl I looked at asked if I was serious so I looked at someone who was looking at me and he ran and got a teacher who did the heimlich and it was so so terrifying but I was incredibly grateful that it happened during passing period and not class as I am a paraplegic, I wouldn’t be able to run to a class. Thank you Mr Salem ❤️
I think paramedics are NEVER appreciated enough... So many incidents where some a55h0le attacked them simply for doing their job or whatever dumb reason, and they're still going out there saving people. Hats off to those fine ladies and gents 👏
What kind of monster attacks a paramedic?! Somebody's mental.
And they get paid nearly minimum wage. That's insane!
Yes. I saw a video yesterday of a man who was having a medical emergency and after he was revived ended up pulling a gun and shooting many rounds and ended up fatally shooting a fireman/medic in the crossfire. I can’t stop thinking about it. It is so tragic that fire/ems don’t get the credit they deserve and get hurt in the line of duty. All my respect to them.
@@seppyq3672 paramedics where I live make 80 K to 100 K a year
@Alyssa Roxanne i'm pro gun but not pro f*ckwit (i wish i could think of a worse name)
I don’t think anything makes my blood boil more than domestic/intimate partner abuse or manipulation. Good on that brave woman and good on those who responded.
These people that save lives not for money, a job, or fame are what heroes are
When I was a baby, I rolled off the changing table. Throughout the day, I kept crying, and in the car, I'd scream when we hit bumps. So my mom finally took me to the ER. No injuries, but I had a horrible ear infection, and the doctor said if she hadn't brought me in, I would have more than likely gone deaf in that ear. Obviously, falling off the changing table didn't cause it, but she says, more than likely, she wouldn't have taken me to the ER if I hadn't fallen earlier that day. God works in mysterious ways.
These citizens are amazing recognizing symptoms of distress in order to make the right calls to save people's lives, everyone should learn this stuff and the people who teach it are amazing
AY
AYOOO
I’m a mama and I’m holding back tears watching this
4:17 omg this kid is so adorable! What a good brother!
My dad actually saved someone's life because he administered cpr. He was driving home from work one day when he saw a woman unconsious on the pavement with her dog pulling on his leash which was still wrapped around her wrist, so he pulled over, called 911, and administered cpr until the paramedics arived. She's had a heart attack while on a dog walk, and ended up surviving and later on even coming over to our house to thank my dad in person. Ever since then I've tried to keep up with being cpr and first aid certified as much as possible because I know it could save someone's life some day.
Wow, good on him! And good for you for choosing to stay prepared. That's awesome she came over to thank him. And that poor dog was prob trying to run for help (which idk where or how), but the poor thing was prob scared bc sensed something was wrong.
I love how the mom warned the other people coming to help. That was very community minded.
I saw the full clip of the raccoon attack, and it wasn't people coming to help, there were other children in the neighbourhood who happened to be near by and the mom was warning them to get back in their houses
@@DrummerrDuckieI watched it and learned it was actually her neighbors coming out to help because they heard the screaming. She screamed to them to get back inside once she had the raccoon by the scruff.
That boy saving his brother brought a tear to my eye.
To people who are in danger, STAY SAFE AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE HAPPY (MOST OF THE TIME) ❤
the split second where it looked like the baby was going to hit the floor made me lose my breath. the brother is a real life hero and i agree- get him signed!
Hahaha the end had me xD he is such a lovable brother ❤️
I worked at a daycare for 3 years in high school / college, and I learned so freaking much about handling kids safely. Our number one rule for the elevated diaper tables? ONE HAND ON THE CHILD AT ALL TIMES. And it wasn't fingertips, it was your hand flat on that child, preferably on their chest. I got super good at extracting wipes and grabbing supplies one-handed.

Same, the place I worked didn’t even have a strap on the changing table. Said it promoted a false sense of security. We had bins set up in close reach with labels, so we could grab them with one hand while keeping the kids safe.
It’s also kind of the same thing when handling the elderly who are incontinent. I took care of those with dementia for at least three/four years-they’re just as fragile just in bigger bodies.
Lot of heroes in these clips. It’s nice to see stuff like this and get a reminder there are plenty of good people out there.
10:45 Rest in Peace to her husband💔 Prayers and condolences to him and all the families, friends and loved ones❤ So happy she's saved, hope shes doing well, So relieved and happy to hear the IPV victim is rescued, praying and hoping shes safe and okay❤ And so glad everyone in this video survived hope theyre well and may God be with them and us all❤ kudos to all the heroes mentioned here and all medical staffs and proffesionals, yall are heroes❤
The woman who was in the IPV situation was SO smart! As a survivor, of almost the same situation she had in her note, I wish I had thought of doing that. It would have saved me from a lot more abuse. And kudos to the staff as well. IPV is a scary, dangerous situation. 💜
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, and love all over the world, I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don't mind. I'm Doctor Christopher Johnson from San Francisco, California, where are you from if I may ask
@@chirstopherj Why are you copy-pasting this message all over the place?
I hope you're safe and healing now. I know how harrowing it can be. I suffered abuse in my childhood and teenage years and it's stuck with me, so I hope life has improved for you and you've found strength after it all. 💙
@@andyyistired I am, thank you. It’s an ongoing battle, I will tell you that. It’s been 7 years since I finally got out, and I still struggle with my mental health and fear and trust. But I am slowly getting back to who I was before. Thank you for your kind words.
@@MerelvandenHurk lol, funny how they think someone won’t notice such things isn’t it? He wasn’t getting a response either way, but thanks for pointing it out 😊
IPV survivor here. Thank you for including the last clip. I was emotional during some of the videos, but what actually brought me nearly to tears was that woman.
well im glad you got help and you got to safety and it must take a lot of courage to get out of that situation with all the uncertainty
I am 29 years younger than my dad, and yet, i pretty much know more than him medically. How ? Binge watching Dr. Mike while still living life normally.
We need more doctors like Doctor Mike!!! 🙌🏼🙏🏼
I couldn't stop crying throughout this entire video. First because I hate to see anyone hurt and second because of the brave, selfless people who helped those in trouble. Thank you Dr. Mike for showing how any one of us can save a life if we have a little knowledge. Since watching your videos I feel a lot more confident in how to react if I were to be at the scene of a medical emergency. Thank you for being you and sharing your knowledge with the world.
Exactly what I wanted to say!
Thank you for clarifying that domestic violence can be different from intimate partner violence. You have no idea what that means to someone like me, a survivor of both. And you having resources as a part of your video brought tears to my eyes ❤ Thank you so much for all the help you bring to others and the hope you give to survivors of these situations 💕
I'm so glad that I have expanded terminology now for talking about both because of him, since I experienced both. I've struggled with how to distinguish the two for years so that I could talk about what I experienced from my parents vs my romantic partners both lived-with and not. And this IPV vs DV distinguishment really helps now that I know about it.
I got in a fight once with a roommate. She was the aggressor, but I fought back. We were both arrested for domestic violence, but the charges against us were later thrown out. The law was still new, and it aggravated me that it was used to arrest me when I had basically opened my bedroom door to a punch. There are many situations other than intimate partner relationships where it's appropriate to enforce, and I can understand a little better where the arresting officer was coming from, but our situation was not one of them.
I loved that he covered this. I also was confused about the difference and I’ve lived through domestic violence as a kid and now treat childhood trauma in adults. This is a really good distinction between our home life and our “love” life. I’ve also seen “Interpersonal Violence” used more and I feel like it can fit better than just using domestic violence. Language can be healing, especially if you finally find the words that you feel works for you. That can be really hard for some people. I like that he talked about it and how society/professions are being more selective of what words they use.
@@jolenejoleeene If it makes you feel any better, I WAS actively prosecuted by my state for a Domestic Violence charge against an ex bf ... We weren't even living together or dating at the time. We'd been broken up for two full weeks and I'd been living with someone else entirely for the entire time. HE was stalking ME, harrassing my roommates day and night, and actively the aggressor. Absolutely ridiculous how DV laws ACTUALLY work, and how rarely they actually protect the true victims.
I love the fact mike only takes 10 seconds to start the video! ❤❤
Wow! The kid who had ran super fast to catch the baby is a hero! He did it even though he couldn't hold the baby! Go kid! Keep being a hero!
Thank you Dr. Mike for these types of videos...Our daughter died in 1996 at age 5 1/2 months when she aspirated vomit while lying on her back in her crib at daycare...Once they noticed they called 911 but NO ONE attempted CPR on her at any point. The EMS we spoke with said that when they arrived at the daycare, our daughter was lying on the floor, alone, and the staff were all running around freaking out!! So the end result was a fatal brain injury due to the aspiration (is what we were told)..So thank you again for always making it known to do CPR ASAP!!!

Omg that lil boy that caught his baby brother…❤❤❤ just awesome
That kid's catching his sibling is amazing ❤❤❤
It costs a lot to be cpr trained in canada. I wish we had your kiosks in every single public building. You're brilliant, Dr. Mike. Thank you for being a health advocate and spreading all the knowledge we really need in this crazy world. 🙏
It's not that bad. about 100 bucks. Many jobs will also pay for you to get first aid training.
@Orchidilia I guess it depends which province you're in... and which levels you take. So at a bare minimum $100, but at the most it can go up to $300. I just think this information should be free and provided by government for every person at least in Canada.
@@TheWeekendFriend it's best done on training dummies with people to observe technique. Which isn't something that can be provided easily, cheaply or widely. It's better to have people that want to learn, learn it properly then for everyone to learn it improperly. It can be more dangerous for an improperly trained person to try and do this then for nothing to be done. I can understand their hesitation to just mass teach people that don't want to learn and then for these semi trained people to then improperly treat others and cause more damage.
It’s extremely simple. 5 mins on UA-cam and you’re fine.
@@TheWeekendFriend Depending on where you work, they may offer yearly CPR training or will sponsor your CPR training. Government, education, and public-facing positions are most likely to offer training if you ask.
I'm such a sensitive dad, when he 3:30 admitted he couldn't carry or run that fast to do what he did, I lost it.
He knew that he had to save his sibling and he did it...😭😭😭😭👏🏾👏🏾
That was horrible...I lost it at the dresser falling on the baby 😭
@@livelifeincolour same, the fact the other twin got out then went straight to help their sibling was soooo sweet
@8D I was so impressed that the other child could move that dresser and that the first child wasn't more hurt.
As a mom, this incident is one of my worst nightmares!
Me too. That’s when I started sobbing.
@@livelifeincolour that's what truly impressed me, it's like they counted together and one got out, then that one went straight to help their sibling.
I'd fuss at myself for not securing the dresser and buy them their favorite toy for the save.
High respect brother, this world needs more people like you
Way to go big bro Joseph!! As a mother, that gave me a heart attack. That man with the life-vac, is an angel on earth. He would be on my Christmas present list, heck he'd become family after that.
Damn! Every teacher should know the Heimlich maneuver like the one that saved the boy! So much respect
Teachers should be required to have some basic first aid training... I mean in America they are taught to teach their students how to best survive a shooting...
It's interesting that, here in Australia, our first aid courses only teach the back blows, not the Heimlich. There is a reason for it, but I can't remember now.
As a teenager I choked on pizza while laughing, my friends thought I was joking til I started turning blue, they panicked and I had to mime the back slap then the Heimlich maneuver to free it. Scared the sh*t out me
In my state anyone who works with kids are required to be CPR/First Aid certified. I'm not going to say which state due to privacy reasons.
Im a teacher and we definitely learn this, one of the first courses I had! along with a lot of other first aid
I hope big bro Joseph (who caught his baby brother) gets *everything* on his Christmas wishlist this year, he deserves it. 👏
And the teen who saved the 6-year-old deserves whatever he wants for Christmas too. Someone buy him a scholarship or a car or something 😭 He really did just want to protect his neighbor; we could all learn from him. ❤
I had never even thought to thank a patient sharing that type of information with me, referring to the last video. I’m definitely going to do that during patient intake going forward.
EMT here, I wanted to let you know that your emergency medical advice is spot on!
The last one really hit me. I was mentally and sexually abused by my ex-boyfriend and it still haunts me. Getting over it is hard and I can't imagine what has gone through, to be that scared for your life.
*hugs* :( Glad your safe and your out of that relationship
im so sorry and i hope your getting the help you need i hope you have a therapist

@12:39 where doctor Mike is talking about how to stop a dog that is latched on to someone, you can also use the grip and pull.

@@xOrionNebula1970 I’m still waiting for an appointment lol. I seem to be particularly sensitive to mould but what scares me is how I can eat he same things and react differently to them. I think it might be about how the food is prepared, how old it is and if it’s reheated as apparently that can increase the amount of histamine in foods. But yeah I will get hives and other rashes, burning lips, swelling lips, wheezing lungs filling up with mucus, sweating, vomiting, diarrhea, tachycardia, blood pressure drop, oxygen saturation drop. I had to fight to get an EpiPen as my PCP would not listen to the doctor who prescribed it. And yeah still no actual allergy testing yet…
@@SobrietyandSolace why is it taking so long at this might be time to change what ever is holding you up
In my opinion, CPR should be taught in schools. Not everyone would ever use it, but some could make a difference in someone else's life.
Your commitment to help people in many ways is very impressive and refreshing Dr. Mike.
Also, why didn't you stop by Portugal at that time? We could have a chat. JK
CPR and first aid was a required class at my high-school in 2018 idk about anymore but I still use that information to this day. It was amazing.
In Sweden we are taught that in school and then regularly every couple of years at work.
When my sister stopped breathing in front of me I had just two weeks earlier done a repeat course in CPR and it just clicked and I automatically acted immediately. Somehow I called the emergency number at the same time as I began CPR.
Unfortunately it didn’t save my sister, she was too ill, but if she would have been able to be brought back she would most likely have been okay.
And I know that my body knows how to do it if (hopefully not) I would ever be in that situation again.
It’s a very traumatic experience and it has scarred me for life.

Thankyou for calling it IPV and highlighting that abuse can happen even when you're not living together. I was in a IPV relationship for 3 years as a teenager and felt so alone because I couldn't articulate or explain my situation. It wasn't DV, it wasn't child abuse either, but it was still violent, abusive, manipulating and controlling behaviour. It becomes your normal and you don't know any different. The abuser warps your sense of reality. I am still dealing with the trauma over 10 years later. Again, thankyou for all you do.
Sending you lots of love. Unraveling all that trauma is such a long and painful process, and I hope you’re surrounded now by people and resources that are helping you feel safe and whole. I’m so glad that you were eventually able to get out and start healing.
