- Boom.
Oh man!
Makeshift machinery, ridiculous run-ins
and lots and lots of zombie slangs. What?
Today, we're headed back to the gore-drenched streets
of LA breaking down and reacting to all of the intense
medical scenes and twisted injuries from Dead Island 2.
Let's dive right in.
Whoa.
Holy cow.
I see organs.
Different injuries could actually
cause somebody's body to be shot in half,
namely car accidents or falls from really high levels
or industrial equipment type injuries.
Oh. Okay, if I got blunt trauma to the side of my head
like that just behind your ear,
which is your mastoid process,
you could potentially have a fracture there,
you can potentially get internal bleeding in your brain
but you're gonna be totally dazed and confused.
Oh, another smack to the head.
It looks like fracture to the nose, you see some blood.
You can actually fracture the sinuses here.
People will have fractures from getting punched in the face
on either side and I tell everybody,
I'm like, "Please do not sneeze."
If you sneeze, sneeze with your mouth open
because if you try to stifle the sneeze,
air will escape through the sinus into the tissue.
Boom.
Oh man!
Puncture wound right underneath the jaw here
so very soft, you guys can feel your own
but then that puncture has to go through
the hard palate of your mouth which is bone.
- Bone! - Up into your skull
so lots of different bone has to have a lot of force,
has to be sharp enough to be able to do that
and if it gets into the brain, that's your frontal lobe
and that has to do with personality,
different things relating to higher level function.
Oh, leg gone.
Wow.
Shot right through the femur. Femur is huge, big.
If you break that bone, there's a ton of blood loss
that could happen. Extremely painful.
We see people mostly get bad fractures
and all of a sudden as it fractures,
it retracts. - Retract.
- And it rides over itself and it's extremely painful.
Is that a nail gun?
That looks like a nail gun, it sounds like a nail gun.
I've seen people come to the emergency department
where they actually have nail gun injuries
where the nail goes into bone, into tissue.
I've seen it through fingers, knees
and what ends up happening is we just pull them out
and usually because it's involving bone,
we will give antibiotics.
Oh man.
It looks like we can actually see
pieces of the femur bone, super sharp.
We have to be really careful, as healthcare providers,
that we actually don't lacerate ourselves
'cause these bones are actually quite sharp.
Oh!
What is that? A meat cleaver right to the face.
- In the face. - It could potentially
go through the bone, obviously the soft tissue.
It's got a lot of weight behind it.
Small knives, when people try to stab somebody in the head
it doesn't necessarily go through, it bounces right off.
There's not enough force to it.
This is a lot of force, there's a lot of weight to it
so it has, unfortunately, more damage.
Oh, laceration to the chest.
Hopefully, you have a lot of muscle there.
Work on your bench presses
then you have your ribcage protecting.
Unlikely that a laceration across the chest
will go any deeper than the ribcage, usually does not.
Was not expecting that. - I did not see that coming.
- Puncture wound straight to the face.
You can have something called the a Le Fort fracture
and there's different levels of it,
just depending on which bones are actually broken
and how many pieces it is in
and needs to have surgery done to replace it and fix it.
You can bleed out pretty intensely
with posterior bleeding in the nose.
People will come in with nose bleeds.
They have bleeding either the front at Kiesselbach's
plexus or you have bleeding in the back,
which is sphenopalatine artery.
Oh, just massive blunt trauma to the head.
Can actually cause cervical neck fractures
besides the area that's actually getting hit,
the compression, it can go back.
We see that a lot with car accidents
where people have force that takes them back
and you have a lot of injuries to the cervical spine.
- [Game Character] Come on.
- Come on. - C'mon!
- So a knife, big knife, through the skull
and then it starts bleeding out like a faucet.
It doesn't do that, it will just bleed.
It won't profusely come out like a fountain, it'll ooze.
Oh, look at this. Is this wolverine?
Years ago, I was wolverine for Halloween.
I had claws minus the electrical component.
What?
If you have six knives going into your face
with that much force and electricity,
I don't know if you got a chance or not.
Most of the electrical injuries that I see
that come to the emergency department
are related to outlets, not these crazy weapons
that have been made to kill zombies.
Oh, wow. In that situation, where the leg is taken off,
tourniquet the leg, grab the other piece
of the lower portion as well,
maybe put it in a bag and bring it with you.
I've had people come to the hospital
where they actually forget to bring the amputated piece
and without the piece, you can't put it back together.
Come on. - C'mon.
- An ax could cause significant head trauma
to somebody because it has a long fulcrum
and a blade that is sharp enough that can pop right through.
Just think about a big, strong piece of wood, same idea.
The skull is millimeters thick,
it's hard as a rock obviously
but with enough force, you can crack right through it.
Whoa, we see people come to the emergency department a lot
with head injuries, blunt trauma due to getting in fights.
It actually causes both people, the person getting hit
as well as the person doing it, significant trauma
so we see a lot of bloody hands, we see broken hands
and then we see a lot of soft tissue injury to the face.
You also have to think, if you're punching somebody
in the mouth, you can lacerate and cut your hand
and if you lacerate, open up into the knuckles
and into the joint then you increase the risk
of getting bacteria into a joint,
which is horrible and bad and dangerous.
Oh. Some blunt trauma either right to the jaw,
right to the neck.
Sometimes you can hit somebody so hard
obviously that it breaks the bone.
In the neck, you actually have a hyoid bone
that sits right up in here but then you have your cartilage,
sometimes you can break cartilage
but it's pretty hard to do that.
You can cause inflammation within your airway,
you can also cause spasming of your vocal cord
and break bones of the jaw.
We typically see, not just a single fracture,
but we'll actually see two fractures
where the energy goes in and the energy goes out.
Laceration injury right through the knees.
If you actually hit the patellar tendon,
which is basically the tendon attaching your kneecap
to the tibia, if that is disrupted,
it actually causes the kneecap to go higher up
into the thigh and pretty much that's how your thigh muscles
are attached to the lower leg to allow it
to kick somebody or to extend
and if it's not attached by the patellar tendon,
you're not gonna be doing that.
Even if somebody is kind of electrocuted,
with the energies that we use normally
typically bodies don't explode.
Now obviously not a hundred percent,
there could be so much energy that something
causes somebody to explode. - Explode.
- But a handheld device, I don't normally see that happen,
we see people that come with lower level energy
electrical injuries.
