What's sad is that so many young teens think that it'll be OK to just eat one mattress to fit in with their friends, not realizing how addictive they are.
😂😂😂 I laughed very loud when she said it then I laughed louder when I innocently read your comment. I now have the attention of everyone in the office 😂😂😂
Oh my god, the mattresses… Someone get Jennifer an angel food cake. The worst part is that she eats *other* peoples mattresses. I get night-sweats like crazy, and Wait I just got to the part where she was going to clean it and eat it a second time. I’ve got nothing to say yo
Not only can you NOT sterilize needles with alcohol because you need an autoclave, disposable needles melt in an autoclave. Just a quick public service announcement.
I’m assuming it fine if its an emergency and you can’t get to a hospital in time? Eg while out camping and sustain a deep cut and need to treat it with whatever you have to hand including a bottle of vodka.
So, boring story. My vet friend gave me some huge bovine gauge needles for free to use for culinary purposes. The huge size of needle is small enough to inject colorful pudding inside globes of clear jelly to make edible flowers inside rain drops. He said I totally could clean these needles and reuse them. Maybe the shear size is the reason?
20:46 dental student here, there’s no way that molar just slid out of her jaw without any breakage. There’s definitely left over root remnants and infection present. This will only cause more spread of the abscess, she could lose all the teeth in that jaw
Yeah, my first thought was "where is the root?", and my second thought was how much more expensive the procedure is going to be now that they'll probably have to go digging for that root. Please people, unless you are literally stranded on an uninhabited island, please see your dentist for toothaches and have the actual dentist do the work they prescribe, dental infections can cause life threatening and potentially lifelong health issues.
@@FawnieFoxI’m no professional but I did have 4 teeth pulled earlier this year (at the dentist though, not by my boyfriend 😭😂) and 1. There was noise. The sounds were a bit gross. It sounds exactly like you’d imagine it would and 2. Either it was fake or like the original comment said the root is still up inside the gum. The part of the tooth we see is like.. half of it. Teeth are actually pretty big once you see the whole thing sitting on a table beside you 😂
What gets me is how people forget that TLC stands for “The Learning Channel”, which began as an actual channel completely dedicated to real education.😮
I looked it up, it used to have shows on house flipping, custom cars, a baby story, a wedding story, and other human interest stories. They even had Walter Cronkite and Donald Sutherland reviewing classic literature. What not to wear 2003 was the first “shock show.” I think the goal is to give an education on sociology, but it’s just drama now. Maybe Jon & Kate Plus 8 unintentionally shifted things.
Okay, the syringes the lady was holding were NOT insulin syringes. And the needle she showed was a phlebotomy (blood draw) needle, not one for administering medications. I'm calling cap on her "cheapskatiness."
Too be fair, there are places called needle exchanges where they give addicts clean, free needles. So she very well could be using these bc they're free 😂😂 but...could also be other reasons
That syringe was most definitely not from any needle exchange I've ever used. They give out a couple different size gauge diabetic syringes, and they're small. Side note: sober since 05 Mar 2017 Edit: the needle exchanges I've used were in the US and Canada (dozens of cities) and in South America (only in Brazil; more specifically, Sao Bernardo do Campo and Santo Andre, and then Rio), so I can't speak on the sizes and types of syringes provided by any exchange outside of those areas--if I'd have thought of it while writing my original post, I would have specified which countries '(the only) needle exchange I've ever used' were in...but that's what edits are for!
Congrats :) My stepdaughter has type 1 diabetes and uses a pump, but sometimes she needs to bolus with a needle. Can confirm NAWT diabetes type needles/syringe.@@ggeemmiinnii
The thing about reusing needles is less about the sterilization and more about the fact that the tip dulls after one use. Using it FOUR TIMES is just asking for a hugely painful shot that can damage the skin and potentially the muscle and nerves where you shoot it :/
As someone chronically ill, I’ve been I situations where I didn’t have supplies I needed and had to reuse something. I’m thinking that that the “use up to four times” is if you’re desperate and lack extra supplies. But otherwise, omg, no! One and done, I’m not about that infected life.
She better be drawing that rubbing alcohol up through the needle! Cleaning the outside is not gonna cut it. And please tell me she and her husband have designated needles… cause… oh god.
that’s where addicts who use intravenously run into a lot of issues. They reuse dull and/dirty needles, which leads to infections, gnarly abscesses & other brutal stuff.
@isitoveryet9525 that's what happened to me I am a recovering drug addict and in 2020 (been clean since) I ended up with sepsis bc of reusing needles. I was in the hospital for over 2 months and had to learn to walk again. Didn't shower for 4 weeks bc I couldn't walk. had a huge abcess in my foot and many tiny ones sitting on my sciatic nerve And the pain... It was so traumatizing I still think about it every single day 😭 sorry this just made me think about it bc a lot of people don't really take it seriously!
I've seen the matress girl before, and something about it (if its real) makes me wonder if she struggled with food insecurity as a child and resorted to eating her car seat and matresses to make the hunger go away. If so, that is really sad.
Because of how big she is, I'd say this is absolutely why. As a young overweight child, I'm sure her mom tried to limit her the best she could. but she was always so hungry that yea .. that's how it started. This isn't on the mom. There's tons of kids whether they are just destined to be fat or what, but they're overweight and scarily hungry. I once saw a 7 year old boy say he was so hungry all the time, even after 3 meals a day and snacks in between. He fantasized about killing his mom just to be able to eat everything in the house in peace for a day or two until the cops came. Like wtf. Something in the brain isn't braining.
Ive had more than my fair share of grippy sock vacations, but holy cow-never heard that one before. I hope that kid is doing all right. I’ve been food insecure (bc of an absence of food, not restricted access), but if I get hungry enough, I move into lay down and die territory lol no energy to be homicidal
@@LivBlanks There is also a condition called pica where people eat things that aren't food such as coins, paper, etc. Could also be what causes her to want to eat mattresses.
My husband and I were laughing so hard at the idea of our 7 year old just eating the whole drivers seat out of the car. We go out and the seat is just some springs and she's like "wat?" while chewing the last bit of carseat. My abs hurt now.
I used to have the same opinion about reaction videos too, but I think the delivery and how genuinely the person reacting is interested in what they're reacting TO is what makes it fun to watch.
I used to volunteer for a syringe exchange program for my county, so I feel I must point out that NO, it is not safe to reuse needles. Even if you're cleaning them with rubbing alcohol (which isn't 100% effective for something with so many crevices), it's not just a germ thing. The needle gets dulled and damaged every time you use it, so it will cause more damage to your skin and possibly lead to skin infections or abscess. Those can also spread and lead to endocarditis, an inflammation of the heart, which can be very serious
@@alyssadoesntlie3702 I encourage you to do some research on public health initiatives. I'd love to live in a world where society/people's family don't eff them up to the point the only peace they can experience is from drugs. Don't continue be part of the problem.
Yes. I saw a video where they showed a super super close up of a needle before use, after one use, and after a few more. You don’t realize it but the tip can curl and crack, holding in germs and severely damaging your body. It’s really interesting to see them that close.
@@renfairegoddessyeah. These programs really work out. Just look at San Francisco. People are loving the consolidation of unhinged users and the needles and litter they leave everywhere.
Tooth abscesses are SO painful, that lady is insane. Even just touching the tooth is awful. I was begging for the root canal when I had one. Also I’m pretty sure the paper at the doctor’s office is to keep the table/chair clean, it’s not sterile since it’s just sitting there on an open roll lol
@livenandlove1980 it is possible to DIY pull teeth however with the swelling plus abscess it wouldn't have been that easy to pull the tooth and she would have screamed and stopped him so you're correct it has to be fake. My dad pulls his own teeth but to do it he gets antibiotics to get rid of the swelling and over a couple days twists the tooth back and fourth to break it away from the roots
@cake94309 There was no way that was real. It's so painful and they made it seem so easy. You can break the root inside and absence doesn't go away by just pulling the tooth. As you mentioned that you need antibiotics. Otherwise, you'll still have the infection. It makes sense that your dad would wiggle it bc roots are so deep.
Lol Jaime, my college roommate was addicted to eating memory foam and pillow stuffing. It was not staged, it was not a joke, it was a real problem. She was a psychology major.
I do feel for people with pica. My neice from 8 months old started eating things that werent food and it was so hard for my sister to curb her compusion. They finally did get it under control but i saw how hard it was on everyone.
Thank you for saying this, I was thinking the same, this is a clinical disorder and not something to be mocked. Unless you’re my pregnant best friend craving chalk, but we kept it away from her, I promise. And luckily, her case went away once she gave birth. Both times. (same craving both times, too?) But we definitely made fun of her later on. Lolol
I once met a woman in a psych ward (don't ask) who ate drywall. Apparently she tore pieces off the wall next to her bed at home. I'm not sure what got her committed, but I imagine someone saw the massive hole in the wall after months of picking away at it, bit by bit. These people absolutely exist. Compulsions are strange things.
My ex was a furniture salesman and we happened to watch the mattress eating episode together one day. We couldn't stop laughing, we couldn't breathe, we had tears streaming down our faces watching it. Its probably one of my fondest memories. I'm not sure why it hit us so hard but my heart does go out to these people with strange addictions
Well I said what about that mattress eating lady he said I think I remember that show well yes now I recall we both really liked it I said well that’s one thing we’ve got
As someone who literally had their tooth pulled 2 weeks ago (by a dentist, don't worry! 😂), I can confidently say this is not real. She would've been SCREAMING in pain. Teeth don't want to come out, you gotta get a good ol' hold and YANK.
I want to think it's fake, but I know someone who really did pull someone's tooth at home. Also I gotta say, I've had a toothache so bad that came on on a Saturday night and hurt through Sunday so all the dentists were closed, that I bout near reached out to that person to pull my tooth. The pain was just so bad that the removal would have been a relief.
Maybe the gum disease was so advanced that the tooth came out more easily? I’ve seen genuine videos of that kind of situation on here. But I’d never do this myself (assuming it isn’t fake).
I actually had a strange addiction. For about a year, I ate Vicks Vapo rub. I ate a large jar every week. I started to have some concerning digestion issues, so I ordered the ingredients to make my own. Ugh, so embarrassing. Anyway, turns out that I was just lacking in some kind of vitamin. As soon as I started taking a multi vitamin, the craving, and weird urge to eat the Vapo Rub went away. So I feel like, for the most part, people are faking. However, there’s probably some people who have real addiction’s to weird crap. Like the woman who ate her own hair, or the person who drank blood. Ooh or that guy who ate glass! Does anyone remember that one?
Years ago I became addicted to original Pine Sol. The smell. I'm talking sinks and small plastic dish tubs of water mixed in with massive amounts of concentrated Pine Sol. You could smell it outdoors before even being directly at my house 😮. I had never had anything weird before that (or since). After about a year, I ended up learning I was extremely anemic and had to begin iron infusions at hospital. Was stunned that I began literally gagging at Pine Sol smells. Ended up searching online and discovered there are actually many people that had the same issue with Pine Sol. Never used it again. Even smelling it if someone else cleaned with it gives me instant nausea and bad headache. Deficiencies can create super strange obsessions for sure
She just throws around the word Sterile. She obviously has zero idea what sterility is. You can't have "sterile" cotton tipped swabs that are in an open jar in an unsterile room. This lady is something else
“Full Sssniperwolf” JAIME you have more talent, grace, and beauty in your pinky than Sssniperwolf will have in her entire life and the lives of the next two generations. Your reaction videos are transformative works of art, hers are a stale snack from an old vending machine that she digested and shat out in a Portapotty.
I love how Jamie puts a count down clock in her commercials. Something about seeing it there helps calm my mind or something weird like that.... anyways, I love this channel, Jamies personality is the best. I wanna best friend like her ❤
TLC started as chaotic and has devolved into completely unhinged. My mom was the biggest TLC fan in the early 2000’s, and I must admit I was shaped into the anxious wreck I am today by Trading Spaces, What Not to Wear, and Jon & Kate + 8.
It used to be educational, I swear😂😂😂😂 until the early 2000s, you could learn stuff because it was (I might be messing up details) funded by different states' education departments to have 24/7 educational content.
TLC did NOT just stand by and let someone rip a live tooth out for their show. People can bleed to death from that. Either it was faked, he's secretly a dentist, or this show probably broke several laws.
You'd have a better chance of winning the lottery jackpot than bleeding to death from a tooth extraction. I've assisted with hundreds of extractions, nobody ever came anywhere near bleeding to death, even people who were on blood thinners. A simple extraction does not cause that kind of bleeding.
Right!! For someone to walk around with a giant hole where their tooth was just pulled out without proper aftercare would pose a massive risk of infection. And like you said, it would be a bloodbath. I would think it’d have to be faked, like how would she not pass out from the pain? lol
Someone could literally get sepsis and die from this. Especially considering that they used disgusting rusty pliers rather than sterilized medical equipment.
"It could be that people like this gentleman havent found what theyre looking for in a person, so they resort to an addiction." As someone who has an addiction and also hasnt found what I am looking for in a person (or when I do find it, its not reciprocated), your compassion and empathy hit home. Way to be gentle and understanding without condemnation. 👏🏻👏🏻
I hope you find your special someone ❤. A bit of obvious advice - try and address your addiction before they come into your life so your relationship won't be hindered by it. Good luck to you! 😊
There was another woman who was addicted to eating mattresses and her mom apparently didn't bother doing anything about it for 16 years. I know Extreme Cheapskates exaggerates stuff for tv and my assumption is My Strange Addiction/similar shows also exaggerate. I know people do actually eat weird stuff, but it doesn't make sense to me that as an adult you would just let your child eat an entire car seat without doing anything. My dog ate some of the foam on our ottoman when she was teething, we noticed, and figured out how to stop it (basically just put a cardboard barrier around the bottom).
Yeah, I have a hard time believing that just happened out of nowhere, which just further underlines the absence of L in TLC. What leads a small child to eat their car seat, their parent(s) or guardian(s) not to care, and somehow isn't a tale of significant horror?
Her saying she could eat the pooped out foam gives new meaning to the saying-lather, rinse, repeat. I love your videos. I really love when you did your makeup with the help of your bird and dog and we can’t forget Tammy. You inspired me to start a channel. I do different characters. It’s just for family and I only do a video once in a while but it’s fun. I even got my grandkids to do a couple. Can’t wait for your next video.❤️
15:54 the “sterilization” of those tongue depressors goes away the second they touch something else. Also rubbing alcohol will not “sterilize” anything lol
My dad never had proper dental care ( because of homelessness, addiction, or foster care when he was young ) and he pulled out all 4 of his wisdom teeth throughout his life. My mom said one time he did it with a fork while they were talking at the table; she didn’t even know that’s what he was doing she just thought he was getting something out of his tooth, another time he did it with whiskey and some pliers, and another time he did it with a Swiss army knife. He always said he’d be in so much pain from the tooth ache that removing it himself was a relief. I’m like really not surprised these people did that, and it does seem like they aren’t well off or anything and do need to have a strict budget to get by.
I had to tap out of my "my strange addiction " binge when I got to the episode of the lady who is addicted to eating her dead husband's ashes.... let that sink in... She'd take little hits of it throughout the day. It was so sad, so disgusting and desperate. I had never seen something so disgusting yet heartbreaking at the same time and the feeling really got to me. I almost couldn't believe how much poor taste it took to show that on TV.
There was a point in my life where I wasn't aware what was on TV, but I left it thinking TLC was a bastion of interesting and enlightening programming. I eventually came back to see it had become an exploitive carnival sideshow brought to your home and I've been sitting here trying to remember if it really wasn't always like this or if I fooled myself into thinking it was.
TLC was originally all interesting and informative, I mean TLC stands for "The Learning Channel" after all. But at some point it all went sour and has become the home to the most vapid, garbage reality shows ever conceived.
@@JayBigDadyCy I googled "The fall of the learning channel" and discovered that it was originally founded in 1972 by the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and NASA. That is...quite the turnaround.
I’m not proud of this, but I did remove my own tooth once. I didn’t do this out of choice though! This was during the peak of the pandemic, and getting a dentist appointment was next to impossible. I simply was in too much pain, so I couldn’t deal with waiting. I have since been to the dentist. I mentioned that I had to do this to him, and he commented on what a good job I did. The tooth cracked into bits, which made it easier and harder to remove, at the same time. He said shockingly that I actually got all of the bits out and it’s healed well. I was quite impressed with myself 🤣
What's the trick? Pretty much just use an alcohol rinse before.....then apply pressure.....then regular salt water rinse regularly after the first day? I was shocked my orthodontist removed 3 wisdom teeth in about 40 mins. The sounds in my brain were horrible but almost no pain with the numbing injections.
@@tjjones-xj7kq yeah, I did an alcohol rinse first. But the actual tooth was already cracked down the middle (it was a wisdom tooth), so that gave me some leverage. Then when I was removing it, it was breaking up more. Sounds grim, but it helped a lot. It was just getting all the bits out then. The dentist has actually since told me he is quite impressed that I got it all out. For numbing, I used oragel and also a CRAP load of clove oil. That clove oil numbs you up SO well. Just have to be careful where you get it. I got it all over my cheeks and lips and it was all numb 🤣 It does wear off somewhat quickly though so had to keep re applying it hence getting it EVERYWHERE. But, and it’s a big but. It tastes fucking AWFUL. So, so bad. I’m actually now at the point the wisdom tooth has come through cracked on the other side. I’ve been debating the last week if I should just do it myself again. I’m leaning towards that option 🤣 This tooth is a bit more cracked, so should be easier. I also wouldn’t be as nervous. We will see…
@@lenerush1520 needs must 🤣 The wisdom tooth is coming through on the other side now. I’m considering doing it myself again… it really wasn’t that bad at all. Saves a trip to the dentist. I’m not scared of the dentist, or worried about paying. But my ex works there. So I’d rather avoid him 💀
@@HarryDunlopClark TLDR:If you have decent insurance I'd strongly recommend you go to a dentist. You did well once but it can go wrong and you are at a horrible position to see what's going on and dig out a small piece of stuck root. Great job on doing it yourself! I had to have a root canal done on a tooth that was extremely painful. It of course started hurting on Friday (they're open only M-Thu with "emergency" appointments other times at a high cost) so I used clove oil from a kit on my cracked tooth. It DOES work GREAT! I was so happy how well it worked. I made it till Monday where they sneaked me in. However for me it said don't get any on your gums or anything but tooth. I know why my gums hurt not numb but painful. So idk but I was careful to avoid the skin. All that said a dentist/Ortho is nice for screwy roots that will break off under the gum surface and require them to go and cut the tissue to get the root fibers out. You don't really know till you see an X-ray. I lucked out since the doc was worried about one of mine. Luckily the root cane out fine. At least you didn't deal with a annoyed dental hygienist. The one I had I think was having a bad day. Doc was cool though. Oh and the $1K dollar bill hurt more than the removal!!!! Cost over $300 per tooth! Glad I was only born with 3. That was WITHOUT the drugs that make you high and goofie. I only had the face numbing injections like with a regular cavity filling. No fancy drug that makes me forget what's what. Fun times 3/10 wouldn't do it again😂
It's super dangerous to pull an infected tooth! A relative of mine yanked out his infected tooth and the infection spread up to his brain and killed him. Gotta get the infection dealt with first. 😱
a few years ago, my now 88 year old grandpa pulled 2 of his own teeth out with pliers, zero numbing agent or pain pills. he keeps them in a jar and shows them off like a prize trophy and the whole thing still baffles me to this day.
@21:09 I agree with you. I have had a root canal on my left molar and an extraction of my right molar. The root of those teeth are LONG. They often crack the tooth in half just so they can pull it out and still struggle. Unless that tooth was so rotten it was falling out (should be on an antibiotic at that point) that extraction was too easy and the tooth looks like a child's tooth with no root.
I was under local anesthesia to get one of my wisdom teeth out, and the root was definitely long but it actually came out pretty easily. Took like 5 minutes, came out in one piece. And I have a small mouth so I was expecting it to be more of an issue. But that was done by a dentist.
I also didn't like reaction content until i realized there was stuff i wanted to know about but couldnt deal with the second hand embarrassment of the content without a buffer
And you are HILARIOUS! I love it when you react and take me through any movie. I’m a coach who helps people with emotional regulation and you are MY go to for feeling better. ❤
Girl your hair and makeup is always on point! I wish I could do mine like that. Believe me I’ve tried. I used to watch Hoarders until I realized that I literally watched it to feel better about my own messy house. TLC I feel designs their shows to make people think “well at least my life isn’t that bad”.
Literally just clicked on your channel to rewatch some of your videos and was pleasantly surprised with this upload. Thanks Jaime for the Friday laughs, we appreciate you!
Haven’t even gotten into the actual content yet, and just have to say I freakin love your ads SO MUCH. I sometimes skip through but stayed for this one and it made me legitimately giggle. Thank you. 😂 4:21
Ok, I actually had to pause this video after you talked about the balloon guy because I laughed so hard that I couldn't stop, tears streaming down my face and my ears actually popped and I think it started my menstrual cycle a day early. There are only three people on the planet that had that effect on me, one being my sister . I would thank you for the belly laugh, but my eyes are red and blurry and my face is so warm right now that I can't even. 😂 Your humor brings me and A LOT of people so much joy! Thanks, girl!❤
I've had the (unfortunate) pleasure of watching my husband pull out a tooth to avoid a trip to the dentist. No numbing agent, just well sterilized tools and pure determination, so I can vouch for the last clip, it's definitely possible, just not exactly recommended 😅
My Dad had to pull his own tooth out. The dentist said his blood pressure was too high so they couldn't do the procedure but he was in agonizing pain from his tooth, so he just pulled that bad boy out with no numbing agent
The way I audibly laugh when I'm watching your videos...I appreciate you so much! Also, this show is nuts and the new season they released this year is a DOOZY. 😮💨
JAIME! 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣Your reactions are HILARIOUS!!! My goodness you made my day. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. This video is going into my FAVORITES for the days that I'm in a desperate need of a good laugh. Ty ty!! ❤❤❤LOVE THIS VIDEO❤❤❤
I absolutely cannot believe she said to reuse the needles up to 4 times and I can't believe her diabetic friends would give her used needles. This is absolutely insane
"The reason why I don't eat my mattress, is because I already ate my mattress". My wife and I quote this to each other all the time because it's so funny, the way she delivers that line xb
I literally just got out of the hospital with a really strange infection that they can’t really pinpoint, but thank you so much for making me laugh for the first time in ages! I’ve been sick for a few weeks in your contacts always bring me so much joy, lovely. XOXO Steven ❤😂😢
lol pulling teeth is not that easy I'm a dental nurse and I've seen countless times how much force it really takes to get these out - especially molars. extracting them can be pretty brutal and it takes more than a pair of rusty pliers to fully remove them. besides the ex. forceps you'd need elevators, for example and what's even more important: the damn abscess has to be taken care of, too for a moment I got scared they'd actually try to pull the tooth 😅
Yea also $1800 totally for RCT and Crown/core is cheap as hell. Our office is already pretty cheap and we charge like $890 or $940 for rct and crown is like $1400 and $200 for core. It's funny people just think everything is expensive without properly comparing prices and understanding why things cost as much as they do.
Was thinking the same thing, my Dad had a back tooth removed a few years back and he had to be knocked out for it. He actually had a bit of a mark on his chest, where the poor dentist had to brace his elbow to get enough force to pull out the tooth. No way in hell you can just lift it out like in this clip.
I saw Jennifer's episode years ago and bought the episode to watch when I'm sad. My kids and I work her "straight up" and " the only reason I'm not eating my mattresse is because I already ate my mattress" into condos whenever possible.
omg I saw that episode of my strange addiction with the balloon guy. When you were alking about how cute it was, I was like "oh honey noooo", just holding my breath for the shoe to drop lololol
Every once in a while (actually more often than not) I have a HORRIBLE day. Then I open my laptop and there's our Jaime with another hilarious video that makes me feel like I can face my life. If Jaime can do it, I can do it. I absolutely love her! So grateful for her. She's made me laugh at some of the saddest days of my life. Bless you, Jaime. You reach more people than you know, in the best ways ever.💕
I know quite a few people who have pulled their own teeth or had teeth pulled not by a dentist. A lot of families in PR were poor and lived very rurally, with no access to dentists or doctors not so long ago. My dad, many of my aunts and uncles, almost all of our grandparents and parents in PR were born in their homes because the hospital was days away on foot or by horse. They would get checked and registered days or weeks after they were born, and a lot of times the info on their birth certificate ended up being wrong because of this.
I think the weirdest TLC episode I watched was an episode of hoarders where this woman would keep jars and buckets of her own poop in the house and yard. She did it for 12 years before she got help.
My favorite episode is… actually you know what my whole life was just an episode of extreme cheapskates growing up. My mom actually pulled her own tooth but then the infection spread to the tooth next to it and that tooth broken half and she was absolutelyFLOORED . By the pain like writhing in agony. For basically a whole day because it was a Sunday and she didn’t want to pay for an emergency dentist …Moral of the story don’t pull your own tooth. If you don’t wanna root canal it’s only $300 /$500 at the dentist to have them pull your tooth. 😂
@@comradeoofers8557 which is why I suffered through the pain of my own bad tooth and eventually abscess tooth for about 9years until I finally had insurance
GURL! I LOVE YOUR UA-cam CHANNEL i just found your channel last evening and i cant stop watching the videos. lol thank you for being a creator because all i watch is youtube, i keep bobs burger running in the background tho so my house isnt quiet. but UA-cam has been lacking in content , they dont push new people out to be seen
@RedRoseSeptember22 fear of balloons. I hate them! They freak me the eff out. If I walk into a store and they are blowing up balloons, I'll either leave or ask them to stop while I'm in the store. Balloons make my skin crawl. It's almost like seeing a bomb, I'd imagine, but it's just a balloon/ balloons.
Unrelated to the content; you just totally made me realize why I started to like reaction videos… I’m effing lonely and need a good laugh lol. Thanks for doing what you do.
I just gotta tell you why I love reaction videos, but maybe you will think it's weird. I totally get why people think, "why would you want to watch someone else watch something?" but... there is something lovely about it. I like watching how people react to my favorite movies-- maybe they notice things I didn't, or they see things different, or maybe they love it just like me and it's fun to re-live my favorite moments as if it's the first time with this other person. We have to be aware that these are parasocial relationships, but there is something about it that feels less lonely than just rewatching your favorite movie for the millionth time. It's like sharing something with someone, even though it's technically one-sided... it can bring sooo much joy and interest and curiosity. It provides insight into other people's perspectives and experiences. It can give you new appreciation for something you've felt jaded about. It helps with feelings of loneliness in some way. For me, this is why I really love reaction videos. Specifically, people reacting to movies, TV shows, and music that I really like, and they are exposed for the first time. Those can be so interesting!
I already know this is a great video 😂 There's no way abscess woman had her husband pulled her tooth and didn't end up in the hospital because SHE HAS AN ABSCESS! That would give her some sepsis and make that 1800 bucks look like chump change.
Right, that infection could enter the brain or heart. It could affect the jaw bone too. That's so dangerous. My life is worth a hell of a lot more than $1800
Omg, I’m watching this video, while playing BOTW (horribly bc I can’t stop laughing) and when that guy said what he did at 14:00, my mind was like did I really just hear that, so I looked at the screen and your face confirmed it… I’M CRYING 🥹😂🤣 That escalated so quickly holy shhhh 💀💀💀
What's sad is that so many young teens think that it'll be OK to just eat one mattress to fit in with their friends, not realizing how addictive they are.
This comment is underrated
@@LaRodillaDans I agree! It deserves a 🏆
i remember the first time i tried mattress..i regret it til this day.....
😂
😂😂😂😂😂 🏅🏆
Once I read someone saying that TLC now stands for "Terrible Life Choices," and it makes me laugh several times a week.
Bahahahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣
That is the best!
If the name fits...
Oh my GOD that's funny af
@rmp684 that's so great 😂
I scared my coworkers by laughing so loudly when she said "The reason why I'm not eating my own mattress is because I ate my mattress already." 😂😂
😂😂💯
I literally choked on my food at that part 😭😭
😂😂😂 I laughed very loud when she said it then I laughed louder when I innocently read your comment. I now have the attention of everyone in the office 😂😂😂
I'm literally crying laughing at that😂
Oh my god, the mattresses…
Someone get Jennifer an angel food cake.
The worst part is that she eats *other* peoples mattresses. I get night-sweats like crazy, and
Wait I just got to the part where she was going to clean it and eat it a second time. I’ve got nothing to say yo
Not only can you NOT sterilize needles with alcohol because you need an autoclave, disposable needles melt in an autoclave. Just a quick public service announcement.
I was about to comment this
I’m assuming it fine if its an emergency and you can’t get to a hospital in time? Eg while out camping and sustain a deep cut and need to treat it with whatever you have to hand including a bottle of vodka.
Sharing needles is how you get communicable diseases. Yuck.
So, boring story. My vet friend gave me some huge bovine gauge needles for free to use for culinary purposes. The huge size of needle is small enough to inject colorful pudding inside globes of clear jelly to make edible flowers inside rain drops. He said I totally could clean these needles and reuse them. Maybe the shear size is the reason?
What autoclave has to do with alcohol?
20:46 dental student here, there’s no way that molar just slid out of her jaw without any breakage. There’s definitely left over root remnants and infection present. This will only cause more spread of the abscess, she could lose all the teeth in that jaw
Do you think they actually did it? I’m hoping they pretended… I can’t imagine how awful that would be!
Yeah, my first thought was "where is the root?", and my second thought was how much more expensive the procedure is going to be now that they'll probably have to go digging for that root. Please people, unless you are literally stranded on an uninhabited island, please see your dentist for toothaches and have the actual dentist do the work they prescribe, dental infections can cause life threatening and potentially lifelong health issues.
@@FawnieFoxI’m no professional but I did have 4 teeth pulled earlier this year (at the dentist though, not by my boyfriend 😭😂) and 1. There was noise. The sounds were a bit gross. It sounds exactly like you’d imagine it would and 2. Either it was fake or like the original comment said the root is still up inside the gum. The part of the tooth we see is like.. half of it. Teeth are actually pretty big once you see the whole thing sitting on a table beside you 😂
@@FawnieFox as a dental nurse of over 15 years. No, they absolutely did not extract her tooth that day

Complete Jamie French Horror History, when?
What gets me is how people forget that TLC stands for “The Learning Channel”, which began as an actual channel completely dedicated to real education.😮
It stands for "Terrible Life Choices"
I looked it up, it used to have shows on house flipping, custom cars, a baby story, a wedding story, and other human interest stories. They even had
Walter Cronkite and Donald Sutherland reviewing classic literature.
What not to wear 2003 was the first “shock show.” I think the goal is to give an education on sociology, but it’s just drama now. Maybe Jon & Kate Plus 8 unintentionally shifted things.
I came here to see if anyone else was equally dumbfounded by this.
Trashy Low-grade Crap.
I used to love their medical shows and documentaries.
Ngl though I love the freakshow too.
Okay, the syringes the lady was holding were NOT insulin syringes. And the needle she showed was a phlebotomy (blood draw) needle, not one for administering medications. I'm calling cap on her "cheapskatiness."
Too be fair, there are places called needle exchanges where they give addicts clean, free needles. So she very well could be using these bc they're free 😂😂 but...could also be other reasons
That syringe was most definitely not from any needle exchange I've ever used. They give out a couple different size gauge diabetic syringes, and they're small.
Side note: sober since 05 Mar 2017
Edit: the needle exchanges I've used were in the US and Canada (dozens of cities) and in South America (only in Brazil; more specifically, Sao Bernardo do Campo and Santo Andre, and then Rio), so I can't speak on the sizes and types of syringes provided by any exchange outside of those areas--if I'd have thought of it while writing my original post, I would have specified which countries '(the only) needle exchange I've ever used' were in...but that's what edits are for!
Congrats :) My stepdaughter has type 1 diabetes and uses a pump, but sometimes she needs to bolus with a needle. Can confirm NAWT diabetes type needles/syringe.@@ggeemmiinnii
@@user-oy3yo7qe6owhy though. Is it the taste? The texture? The chew? I'm genuinely curious
@@babyturkey8342even needles for drugs aren’t those giant ones she had lol
The balloon guy is Linda Belcher's dad from Bob's Burgers! BALLOOOONS! 🤣🤣
How I stopped breathing for a second when she explained that she “reuses” the mattress chunks she poops out… like EXCUSE ME?
Never accept an invite to stay in her spare room 🤢
Julius: I just love balloons. They remind me of my childhood.
Jaime: Awh so wholesome! 🥹
Julius: I also wanna sex my balloons..
Jaime: DANG IT JULIUS!
When she goes "here's a balloon lady" & then edited it to say balloon lady 😂
And then it gets darker with “if I don’t inflate it all the way…it can take a lot of abuse”
Sounds like a repressed trauma tbh
I was with Jaime too. I was like “oh There it is”
This was actually taken from a show called My Strange Sex. I laughed so hard when I saw his face in the thumbnail.
The thing about reusing needles is less about the sterilization and more about the fact that the tip dulls after one use. Using it FOUR TIMES is just asking for a hugely painful shot that can damage the skin and potentially the muscle and nerves where you shoot it :/
As someone chronically ill, I’ve been I situations where I didn’t have supplies I needed and had to reuse something. I’m thinking that that the “use up to four times” is if you’re desperate and lack extra supplies. But otherwise, omg, no! One and done, I’m not about that infected life.
She better be drawing that rubbing alcohol up through the needle! Cleaning the outside is not gonna cut it. And please tell me she and her husband have designated needles… cause… oh god.
that’s where addicts who use intravenously run into a lot of issues. They reuse dull and/dirty needles, which leads to infections, gnarly abscesses & other brutal stuff.
@isitoveryet9525 that's what happened to me I am a recovering drug addict and in 2020 (been clean since) I ended up with sepsis bc of reusing needles. I was in the hospital for over 2 months and had to learn to walk again. Didn't shower for 4 weeks bc I couldn't walk. had a huge abcess in my foot and many tiny ones sitting on my sciatic nerve And the pain... It was so traumatizing I still think about it every single day 😭 sorry this just made me think about it bc a lot of people don't really take it seriously!
@babyturkey8342 Im sorry you went through all that. But congrats on being clean & hope life treats you well. From one recovering addict to another.❤
I've seen the matress girl before, and something about it (if its real) makes me wonder if she struggled with food insecurity as a child and resorted to eating her car seat and matresses to make the hunger go away. If so, that is really sad.
that actually would make a lot of sense.
@@Monicaliatoo much sense.
Because of how big she is, I'd say this is absolutely why. As a young overweight child, I'm sure her mom tried to limit her the best she could. but she was always so hungry that yea .. that's how it started. This isn't on the mom. There's tons of kids whether they are just destined to be fat or what, but they're overweight and scarily hungry. I once saw a 7 year old boy say he was so hungry all the time, even after 3 meals a day and snacks in between. He fantasized about killing his mom just to be able to eat everything in the house in peace for a day or two until the cops came. Like wtf. Something in the brain isn't braining.
Ive had more than my fair share of grippy sock vacations, but holy cow-never heard that one before. I hope that kid is doing all right. I’ve been food insecure (bc of an absence of food, not restricted access), but if I get hungry enough, I move into lay down and die territory lol no energy to be homicidal
@@LivBlanks There is also a condition called pica where people eat things that aren't food such as coins, paper, etc. Could also be what causes her to want to eat mattresses.
Knowing this woman would easily afford a root canal and crown while I have no choice but to loose the tooth is so infuriating
Idk I got charged a lot for a crown.
My husband and I were laughing so hard at the idea of our 7 year old just eating the whole drivers seat out of the car. We go out and the seat is just some springs and she's like "wat?" while chewing the last bit of carseat. My abs hurt now.
I used to have the same opinion about reaction videos too, but I think the delivery and how genuinely the person reacting is interested in what they're reacting TO is what makes it fun to watch.
I have to skip tiktoks that are duets and they're saying nothing, just blank face
Yeah, there's a huge difference between someone like Jaime vs someone like Sniper Wolf. The quality of the reaction is pretty apparent.
I also think there's space for a "value added" factor where the reactor can add outside context or expertise to what they're watching.
Jaimie's reactions are hilarious. She makes everything so much better.
me too - i watch very few - you have to like the youtuber even if they weren't doing reaction videos - it's not for everyone
I used to volunteer for a syringe exchange program for my county, so I feel I must point out that NO, it is not safe to reuse needles. Even if you're cleaning them with rubbing alcohol (which isn't 100% effective for something with so many crevices), it's not just a germ thing. The needle gets dulled and damaged every time you use it, so it will cause more damage to your skin and possibly lead to skin infections or abscess. Those can also spread and lead to endocarditis, an inflammation of the heart, which can be very serious
I’m for arresting people that try to exchange needles…
@@alyssadoesntlie3702 I encourage you to do some research on public health initiatives.
I'd love to live in a world where society/people's family don't eff them up to the point the only peace they can experience is from drugs.
Don't continue be part of the problem.
Yes. I saw a video where they showed a super super close up of a needle before use, after one use, and after a few more. You don’t realize it but the tip can curl and crack, holding in germs and severely damaging your body. It’s really interesting to see them that close.
I came here to say this thank youuuu
@@renfairegoddessyeah. These programs really work out. Just look at San Francisco. People are loving the consolidation of unhinged users and the needles and litter they leave everywhere.
Tooth abscesses are SO painful, that lady is insane. Even just touching the tooth is awful. I was begging for the root canal when I had one. Also I’m pretty sure the paper at the doctor’s office is to keep the table/chair clean, it’s not sterile since it’s just sitting there on an open roll lol
i was mortified watching that part. I'm still dazed lol
That one was fake. Ain't no way.
@livenandlove1980 it is possible to DIY pull teeth however with the swelling plus abscess it wouldn't have been that easy to pull the tooth and she would have screamed and stopped him so you're correct it has to be fake. My dad pulls his own teeth but to do it he gets antibiotics to get rid of the swelling and over a couple days twists the tooth back and fourth to break it away from the roots
@cake94309 There was no way that was real. It's so painful and they made it seem so easy. You can break the root inside and absence doesn't go away by just pulling the tooth. As you mentioned that you need antibiotics. Otherwise, you'll still have the infection. It makes sense that your dad would wiggle it bc roots are so deep.
@@cake94309abscesses can lead to infection in your brain. 😬😬
Lol Jaime, my college roommate was addicted to eating memory foam and pillow stuffing. It was not staged, it was not a joke, it was a real problem. She was a psychology major.
I do feel for people with pica. My neice from 8 months old started eating things that werent food and it was so hard for my sister to curb her compusion. They finally did get it under control but i saw how hard it was on everyone.
Thank you for saying this, I was thinking the same, this is a clinical disorder and not something to be mocked. Unless you’re my pregnant best friend craving chalk, but we kept it away from her, I promise. And luckily, her case went away once she gave birth. Both times. (same craving both times, too?) But we definitely made fun of her later on. Lolol
I once met a woman in a psych ward (don't ask) who ate drywall. Apparently she tore pieces off the wall next to her bed at home. I'm not sure what got her committed, but I imagine someone saw the massive hole in the wall after months of picking away at it, bit by bit.
These people absolutely exist. Compulsions are strange things.
Maybe she was trying to break out of the family home
LOL@@BIBLE-UNBUTCHERED
I’ve heard of that addiction before… also pregnant women craving drywall and chalk.
I bet this lady has a huge bezoar of mattress foam in her guts waiting to be removed
Yup. It's called PICA.
My ex was a furniture salesman and we happened to watch the mattress eating episode together one day. We couldn't stop laughing, we couldn't breathe, we had tears streaming down our faces watching it. Its probably one of my fondest memories. I'm not sure why it hit us so hard but my heart does go out to these people with strange addictions
Well I said what about that mattress eating lady he said I think I remember that show well yes now I recall we both really liked it I said well that’s one thing we’ve got
@@timmiller1🤣🎶📺🛏
As someone who literally had their tooth pulled 2 weeks ago (by a dentist, don't worry! 😂), I can confidently say this is not real. She would've been SCREAMING in pain. Teeth don't want to come out, you gotta get a good ol' hold and YANK.
Were you awake? I was during a tooth pulling and even though you can’t feel the pain you can feel how hard they have to pull.
I want to think it's fake, but I know someone who really did pull someone's tooth at home. Also I gotta say, I've had a toothache so bad that came on on a Saturday night and hurt through Sunday so all the dentists were closed, that I bout near reached out to that person to pull my tooth. The pain was just so bad that the removal would have been a relief.
I had a root canal two days ago . I'm not a fan of dental work but I would rather have a dentist do it...and pay for it then do that.. big yikes.
Maybe the gum disease was so advanced that the tooth came out more easily? I’ve seen genuine videos of that kind of situation on here. But I’d never do this myself (assuming it isn’t fake).
@@alnsubuga I couldn't watch it...
I actually had a strange addiction. For about a year, I ate Vicks Vapo rub. I ate a large jar every week. I started to have some concerning digestion issues, so I ordered the ingredients to make my own. Ugh, so embarrassing. Anyway, turns out that I was just lacking in some kind of vitamin. As soon as I started taking a multi vitamin, the craving, and weird urge to eat the Vapo Rub went away.
So I feel like, for the most part, people are faking. However, there’s probably some people who have real addiction’s to weird crap. Like the woman who ate her own hair, or the person who drank blood. Ooh or that guy who ate glass! Does anyone remember that one?
Years ago I became addicted to original Pine Sol. The smell. I'm talking sinks and small plastic dish tubs of water mixed in with massive amounts of concentrated Pine Sol. You could smell it outdoors before even being directly at my house 😮. I had never had anything weird before that (or since).
After about a year, I ended up learning I was extremely anemic and had to begin iron infusions at hospital. Was stunned that I began literally gagging at Pine Sol smells.
Ended up searching online and discovered there are actually many people that had the same issue with Pine Sol.
Never used it again. Even smelling it if someone else cleaned with it gives me instant nausea and bad headache.
Deficiencies can create super strange obsessions for sure
“Can you imagine being the camera guy” I didn’t even think of that. Whatever they’re paid it’s not enough

TLC started as chaotic and has devolved into completely unhinged. My mom was the biggest TLC fan in the early 2000’s, and I must admit I was shaped into the anxious wreck I am today by Trading Spaces, What Not to Wear, and Jon & Kate + 8.
It used to be educational, I swear😂😂😂😂 until the early 2000s, you could learn stuff because it was (I might be messing up details) funded by different states' education departments to have 24/7 educational content.
@@HighAsHeckPriestess yup. TLC literally stood for the learning channel!
Yeah, but Trading Spaces and What Not to Wear were good shows!
i remember as a kid i hated What Not To Wear bc they squashed individuality and usually sounded very judgmental of their guests
TLC, used to be The Learning Channel and have nature or documentaries. No more.
I have a terrible head cold right now, and I legit laughed so hard at the mattress part that my ears popped. Thank you, Jamie, I needed that relief. 😂
It's nice having you as a favorite youtuber, and even nicer now that we are trauma bonded over these horrors 😳
You say trauma bond like it's a bad thing. There's no bond greater than a trauma bond 😳😅
The straw taped to the vacuum really got me 😂😂😂
Yep, me too. I'm sitting here like....wow. The straw in the vacuum was more disturbing then the tooth getting pulled😂 😂😂
You’re one of the few UA-camrs that make me actually laugh out loud 😂❤
TLC did NOT just stand by and let someone rip a live tooth out for their show. People can bleed to death from that. Either it was faked, he's secretly a dentist, or this show probably broke several laws.
Knowing TLC it's the last of those.
You'd have a better chance of winning the lottery jackpot than bleeding to death from a tooth extraction. I've assisted with hundreds of extractions, nobody ever came anywhere near bleeding to death, even people who were on blood thinners. A simple extraction does not cause that kind of bleeding.
Right!! For someone to walk around with a giant hole where their tooth was just pulled out without proper aftercare would pose a massive risk of infection. And like you said, it would be a bloodbath. I would think it’d have to be faked, like how would she not pass out from the pain? lol
Someone could literally get sepsis and die from this. Especially considering that they used disgusting rusty pliers rather than sterilized medical equipment.

Her addiction began when she ate the family car seat? And her family was ok with this? And she recycles her foam poop? I....have no words
There was another woman who was addicted to eating mattresses and her mom apparently didn't bother doing anything about it for 16 years. I know Extreme Cheapskates exaggerates stuff for tv and my assumption is My Strange Addiction/similar shows also exaggerate. I know people do actually eat weird stuff, but it doesn't make sense to me that as an adult you would just let your child eat an entire car seat without doing anything. My dog ate some of the foam on our ottoman when she was teething, we noticed, and figured out how to stop it (basically just put a cardboard barrier around the bottom).
Yeah, I have a hard time believing that just happened out of nowhere, which just further underlines the absence of L in TLC. What leads a small child to eat their car seat, their parent(s) or guardian(s) not to care, and somehow isn't a tale of significant horror?
Those Michael Scott cuts get me every time 😂😂😂 This has got to be one of your best videos yet ❤
She's endangering her friends. No doctor would give out these items. She seems to also be a compulsive liar.
Her saying she could eat the pooped out foam gives new meaning to the saying-lather, rinse, repeat. I love your videos. I really love when you did your makeup with the help of your bird and dog and we can’t forget Tammy. You inspired me to start a channel. I do different characters.

“Tongue depressors; sterilized, of course”, as she paws at them with her bare hands
15:54 the “sterilization” of those tongue depressors goes away the second they touch something else. Also rubbing alcohol will not “sterilize” anything lol
Its only 70% proof.
My dad never had proper dental care ( because of homelessness, addiction, or foster care when he was young ) and he pulled out all 4 of his wisdom teeth throughout his life. My mom said one time he did it with a fork while they were talking at the table; she didn’t even know that’s what he was doing she just thought he was getting something out of his tooth, another time he did it with whiskey and some pliers, and another time he did it with a Swiss army knife. He always said he’d be in so much pain from the tooth ache that removing it himself was a relief. I’m like really not surprised these people did that, and it does seem like they aren’t well off or anything and do need to have a strict budget to get by.
I had to tap out of my "my strange addiction " binge when I got to the episode of the lady who is addicted to eating her dead husband's ashes.... let that sink in... She'd take little hits of it throughout the day. It was so sad, so disgusting and desperate. I had never seen something so disgusting yet heartbreaking at the same time and the feeling really got to me. I almost couldn't believe how much poor taste it took to show that on TV.
I feel like most of the people eating weird stuff on that show just need a freaking multivitamin
Oh god, that one was awful. I felt so bad for her, she was clearly traumatized and grieving and they exploited tf out of her having her on that show.
He said he was, "bumfounded" and you didn't catch it, Jaime!
I swear I thought I was crazy but I heard Bumfounded. My new fav word
I thought I heard it too.
Came to see if anyone else heard that! 😂
There was a point in my life where I wasn't aware what was on TV, but I left it thinking TLC was a bastion of interesting and enlightening programming. I eventually came back to see it had become an exploitive carnival sideshow brought to your home and I've been sitting here trying to remember if it really wasn't always like this or if I fooled myself into thinking it was.
TLC was originally all interesting and informative, I mean TLC stands for "The Learning Channel" after all. But at some point it all went sour and has become the home to the most vapid, garbage reality shows ever conceived.
I totally have the same feelings, it used to just be like people trying on wedding dresses and fighting with their mothers-in-law about it...
@@JayBigDadyCy I googled "The fall of the learning channel" and discovered that it was originally founded in 1972 by the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and NASA. That is...quite the turnaround.
“Exploitative carnival sideshow” is a perfect description of present day TLC.
Right? I used to watch "A Baby Story" and other actual shows on there and not the crap we have today lol.
I’m not proud of this, but I did remove my own tooth once. I didn’t do this out of choice though! This was during the peak of the pandemic, and getting a dentist appointment was next to impossible. I simply was in too much pain, so I couldn’t deal with waiting.
I have since been to the dentist. I mentioned that I had to do this to him, and he commented on what a good job I did. The tooth cracked into bits, which made it easier and harder to remove, at the same time. He said shockingly that I actually got all of the bits out and it’s healed well. I was quite impressed with myself 🤣
My dad did the same 😅
What's the trick? Pretty much just use an alcohol rinse before.....then apply pressure.....then regular salt water rinse regularly after the first day?
I was shocked my orthodontist removed 3 wisdom teeth in about 40 mins. The sounds in my brain were horrible but almost no pain with the numbing injections.
@@tjjones-xj7kq yeah, I did an alcohol rinse first. But the actual tooth was already cracked down the middle (it was a wisdom tooth), so that gave me some leverage. Then when I was removing it, it was breaking up more. Sounds grim, but it helped a lot. It was just getting all the bits out then. The dentist has actually since told me he is quite impressed that I got it all out. For numbing, I used oragel and also a CRAP load of clove oil. That clove oil numbs you up SO well. Just have to be careful where you get it. I got it all over my cheeks and lips and it was all numb 🤣 It does wear off somewhat quickly though so had to keep re applying it hence getting it EVERYWHERE. But, and it’s a big but. It tastes fucking AWFUL. So, so bad.
I’m actually now at the point the wisdom tooth has come through cracked on the other side. I’ve been debating the last week if I should just do it myself again. I’m leaning towards that option 🤣 This tooth is a bit more cracked, so should be easier. I also wouldn’t be as nervous. We will see…
@@lenerush1520 needs must 🤣 The wisdom tooth is coming through on the other side now. I’m considering doing it myself again… it really wasn’t that bad at all. Saves a trip to the dentist. I’m not scared of the dentist, or worried about paying. But my ex works there. So I’d rather avoid him 💀
@@HarryDunlopClark
TLDR:If you have decent insurance I'd strongly recommend you go to a dentist. You did well once but it can go wrong and you are at a horrible position to see what's going on and dig out a small piece of stuck root.
Great job on doing it yourself! I had to have a root canal done on a tooth that was extremely painful. It of course started hurting on Friday (they're open only M-Thu with "emergency" appointments other times at a high cost) so I used clove oil from a kit on my cracked tooth. It DOES work GREAT! I was so happy how well it worked. I made it till Monday where they sneaked me in. However for me it said don't get any on your gums or anything but tooth. I know why my gums hurt not numb but painful. So idk but I was careful to avoid the skin.
All that said a dentist/Ortho is nice for screwy roots that will break off under the gum surface and require them to go and cut the tissue to get the root fibers out. You don't really know till you see an X-ray. I lucked out since the doc was worried about one of mine. Luckily the root cane out fine.
At least you didn't deal with a annoyed dental hygienist. The one I had I think was having a bad day. Doc was cool though. Oh and the $1K dollar bill hurt more than the removal!!!! Cost over $300 per tooth! Glad I was only born with 3. That was WITHOUT the drugs that make you high and goofie. I only had the face numbing injections like with a regular cavity filling. No fancy drug that makes me forget what's what.
Fun times 3/10 wouldn't do it again😂
It's super dangerous to pull an infected tooth! A relative of mine yanked out his infected tooth and the infection spread up to his brain and killed him. Gotta get the infection dealt with first. 😱
a few years ago, my now 88 year old grandpa pulled 2 of his own teeth out with pliers, zero numbing agent or pain pills. he keeps them in a jar and shows them off like a prize trophy and the whole thing still baffles me to this day.
@21:09 I agree with you. I have had a root canal on my left molar and an extraction of my right molar. The root of those teeth are LONG. They often crack the tooth in half just so they can pull it out and still struggle. Unless that tooth was so rotten it was falling out (should be on an antibiotic at that point) that extraction was too easy and the tooth looks like a child's tooth with no root.
I was under local anesthesia to get one of my wisdom teeth out, and the root was definitely long but it actually came out pretty easily. Took like 5 minutes, came out in one piece. And I have a small mouth so I was expecting it to be more of an issue.
But that was done by a dentist.
I also didn't like reaction content until i realized there was stuff i wanted to know about but couldnt deal with the second hand embarrassment of the content without a buffer
Not me reaching for the phone at 20:33 😂. We're all in this together, y'all!
And you are HILARIOUS! I love it when you react and take me through any movie. I’m a coach who helps people with emotional regulation and you are MY go to for feeling better. ❤
5:40 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 that smile fades away just i am on the ground
Jamie’s style of humour and over all attitude brings me such joy man! Honestly thank you for filling my cup today with ur genuine dad jokes ❤
Girl your hair and makeup is always on point! I wish I could do mine like that. Believe me I’ve tried. I used to watch Hoarders until I realized that I literally watched it to feel better about my own messy house. TLC I feel designs their shows to make people think “well at least my life isn’t that bad”.
Literally just clicked on your channel to rewatch some of your videos and was pleasantly surprised with this upload. Thanks Jaime for the Friday laughs, we appreciate you!
Same here 💜💜
Same. I always look forward to new Jaime French content.
Haven’t even gotten into the actual content yet, and just have to say I freakin love your ads SO MUCH. I sometimes skip through but stayed for this one and it made me legitimately giggle. Thank you. 😂 4:21
I was literally in tears watching this video. I haven't laughed this hard in years. Thankx Jamie
Ok, I actually had to pause this video after you talked about the balloon guy because I laughed so hard that I couldn't stop, tears streaming down my face and my ears actually popped and I think it started my menstrual cycle a day early. There are only three people on the planet that had that effect on me, one being my sister . I would thank you for the belly laugh, but my eyes are red and blurry and my face is so warm right now that I can't even. 😂 Your humor brings me and A LOT of people so much joy! Thanks, girl!❤
I've had the (unfortunate) pleasure of watching my husband pull out a tooth to avoid a trip to the dentist. No numbing agent, just well sterilized tools and pure determination, so I can vouch for the last clip, it's definitely possible, just not exactly recommended 😅
My Dad had to pull his own tooth out. The dentist said his blood pressure was too high so they couldn't do the procedure but he was in agonizing pain from his tooth, so he just pulled that bad boy out with no numbing agent
The way I audibly laugh when I'm watching your videos...I appreciate you so much! Also, this show is nuts and the new season they released this year is a DOOZY. 😮💨
JAIME! 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣Your reactions are HILARIOUS!!! My goodness you made my day. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. This video is going into my FAVORITES for the days that I'm in a desperate need of a good laugh. Ty ty!!
❤❤❤LOVE THIS VIDEO❤❤❤
19:23 that green wall really brings out your eyes, they look so beautiful!! 🥰🥰
I'm just here to point out the horse socks quote in the description box. I hear you, Jaime. And I see you. ❤
I absolutely cannot believe she said to reuse the needles up to 4 times and I can't believe her diabetic friends would give her used needles. This is absolutely insane
Hi Jamie. I just wanted to say I really dig your sense of humor. Keep up the great work
"The reason why I don't eat my mattress, is because I already ate my mattress".
My wife and I quote this to each other all the time because it's so funny, the way she delivers that line xb
I literally just got out of the hospital with a really strange infection that they can’t really pinpoint, but thank you so much for making me laugh for the first time in ages! I’ve been sick for a few weeks in your contacts always bring me so much joy, lovely. XOXO Steven ❤😂😢
lol pulling teeth is not that easy
I'm a dental nurse and I've seen countless times how much force it really takes to get these out - especially molars. extracting them can be pretty brutal and it takes more than a pair of rusty pliers to fully remove them. besides the ex. forceps you'd need elevators, for example
and what's even more important: the damn abscess has to be taken care of, too
for a moment I got scared they'd actually try to pull the tooth 😅
Yea also $1800 totally for RCT and Crown/core is cheap as hell. Our office is already pretty cheap and we charge like $890 or $940 for rct and crown is like $1400 and $200 for core.
It's funny people just think everything is expensive without properly comparing prices and understanding why things cost as much as they do.
Was thinking the same thing, my Dad had a back tooth removed a few years back and he had to be knocked out for it. He actually had a bit of a mark on his chest, where the poor dentist had to brace his elbow to get enough force to pull out the tooth. No way in hell you can just lift it out like in this clip.
Liking the video before the beginning ad is even over because it's Jaime and I know it's going to be hilarious 😂❤️
Even your title made me laugh! So true.
Side note, I think Lila should press charges. Those are the most awkward eyes and smile I've ever seen
I saw Jennifer's episode years ago and bought the episode to watch when I'm sad. My kids and I work her "straight up" and " the only reason I'm not eating my mattresse is because I already ate my mattress" into condos whenever possible.
omg I saw that episode of my strange addiction with the balloon guy. When you were alking about how cute it was, I was like "oh honey noooo", just holding my breath for the shoe to drop lololol
I watch The Learning Channel just to feel better about myself. It's a guilty pleasure.
Love you Jaime. Your uploads always make me feel an instant dopamine hit. 💜
Every once in a while (actually more often than not) I have a HORRIBLE day. Then I open my laptop and there's our Jaime with another hilarious video that makes me feel like I can face my life. If Jaime can do it, I can do it. I absolutely love her! So grateful for her. She's made me laugh at some of the saddest days of my life. Bless you, Jaime. You reach more people than you know, in the best ways ever.💕
I know quite a few people who have pulled their own teeth or had teeth pulled not by a dentist. A lot of families in PR were poor and lived very rurally, with no access to dentists or doctors not so long ago. My dad, many of my aunts and uncles, almost all of our grandparents and parents in PR were born in their homes because the hospital was days away on foot or by horse. They would get checked and registered days or weeks after they were born, and a lot of times the info on their birth certificate ended up being wrong because of this.
In the evenings that I’m off work, my husband, two kids and I sit down and watch your videos haha. We think you’re hilarious!
Love you JF!
I think the weirdest TLC episode I watched was an episode of hoarders where this woman would keep jars and buckets of her own poop in the house and yard. She did it for 12 years before she got help.
dear god.
I saw that episode! That was a hard watch
Omg i remeber that one
My favorite episode is… actually you know what my whole life was just an episode of extreme cheapskates growing up. My mom actually pulled her own tooth but then the infection spread to the tooth next to it and that tooth broken half and she was absolutelyFLOORED . By the pain like writhing in agony. For basically a whole day because it was a Sunday and she didn’t want to pay for an emergency dentist …Moral of the story don’t pull your own tooth. If you don’t wanna root canal it’s only $300 /$500 at the dentist to have them pull your tooth. 😂
$300-$500 is a hell of alot of money to alot of people, myself included. I could never afford that
@@comradeoofers8557 which is why I suffered through the pain of my own bad tooth and eventually abscess tooth for about 9years until I finally had insurance
“I like my mattress plain and straight up” is one of my favorite quotes of all time
Pretty much any kind of crazy you could ever think of exists…. It’s just up to the show to dramatis a wild situation. Love you Jamie you’re hilarious
GURL! I LOVE YOUR UA-cam CHANNEL i just found your channel last evening and i cant stop watching the videos. lol thank you for being a creator because all i watch is youtube, i keep bobs burger running in the background tho so my house isnt quiet. but UA-cam has been lacking in content , they dont push new people out to be seen
''He's like the opposite of Leonardo DiCaprio'' SHOTS FIRED🤣🤣
Also, is the eating... non-traditional... things related to Pica? I remember ppl talking about that when the matress maitresse episode came out.
I've never been this early to anything in my life
🤔 perhaps
lmao
Crap, me too. Hi Jamie!
I think we're right on time.
19:10 “that’s not enough…” that came deep from Jamie’s subconscious 😂😂
Love the background! That fat back tv with wooden TV stand . Back when you could put things on top of your TV with no worries
How come she's allowed to eat her mattresses plain but when i order a burger plain i get so much crap 😭😭😭😭
I live for your videos Jaime!!! Love you girl
As a human with globophobia, the balloon man can go straight to the deepest pits of hell with all the balloons.
What the heck is globophobia?
@RedRoseSeptember22 fear of balloons. I hate them! They freak me the eff out. If I walk into a store and they are blowing up balloons, I'll either leave or ask them to stop while I'm in the store. Balloons make my skin crawl. It's almost like seeing a bomb, I'd imagine, but it's just a balloon/ balloons.
@@angel_existentialyou ask them to stop while you're in the store? entitled much?
I just love you so much. I rarely laugh watching my phone but so many times you make me laugh out loud with your comments.
Unrelated to the content; you just totally made me realize why I started to like reaction videos… I’m effing lonely and need a good laugh lol. Thanks for doing what you do.
I just gotta tell you why I love reaction videos, but maybe you will think it's weird. I totally get why people think, "why would you want to watch someone else watch something?" but... there is something lovely about it. I like watching how people react to my favorite movies-- maybe they notice things I didn't, or they see things different, or maybe they love it just like me and it's fun to re-live my favorite moments as if it's the first time with this other person. We have to be aware that these are parasocial relationships, but there is something about it that feels less lonely than just rewatching your favorite movie for the millionth time. It's like sharing something with someone, even though it's technically one-sided... it can bring sooo much joy and interest and curiosity. It provides insight into other people's perspectives and experiences. It can give you new appreciation for something you've felt jaded about. It helps with feelings of loneliness in some way.
For me, this is why I really love reaction videos. Specifically, people reacting to movies, TV shows, and music that I really like, and they are exposed for the first time. Those can be so interesting!
I already know this is a great video 😂
There's no way abscess woman had her husband pulled her tooth and didn't end up in the hospital because SHE HAS AN ABSCESS! That would give her some sepsis and make that 1800 bucks look like chump change.
Right, that infection could enter the brain or heart. It could affect the jaw bone too. That's so dangerous. My life is worth a hell of a lot more than $1800
My thoughts exactly
RIGHT like omfg i really hope someone just gave her the money bc NOOOO
@@aminamm3103 Also a *root canal* is $1800, but an extraction is more like $300-400.
Can we take a minute to appreciate Jaime’s hair😍 I love your curl pattern 💯 beautiful ✨
Omg, I’m watching this video, while playing BOTW (horribly bc I can’t stop laughing) and when that guy said what he did at 14:00, my mind was like did I really just hear that, so I looked at the screen and your face confirmed it… I’M CRYING 🥹😂🤣 That escalated so quickly holy shhhh 💀💀💀
@10:13 I almost never recovered from laughing so hard!! 😂😂 whew, damn! My side hurts!
