- Holy cow!
What the heck is that?
[Laughs]
[Upbeat Intro Music]
- I always ask you guys what TV show
or movie do you want me to review next?
And recently I've been getting an overwhelming number
of comments, wanting me to check
out the medical scenes on Rick and Morty.
Let's just say,
I'm starting to see a trend here in these adult cartoons.
Not sure what I'm in for today.
This is my first time seeing Rick and Morty.
It's an animated TV show
on Adult Swim that follows the misadventures
of a cynical mad scientist named Rick Sanchez,
and his good-hearted, but fretful, grandson, Morty Smith.
What type of madness are we in for?
Before we get into it,
My name is Dr. Jordan Wagner.
I'm an ER doc that deals
with every medical situation that you could think of.
Gunshot wounds, COVID, broken hips, firework mishaps.
I created this channel to answer the medical
questions that I get from people every single day.

All right.
Ready to watch some fun medical clips?
Let's react to Rick and Morty.
And a quick disclaimer,
if it's a little vulgar, or dare I say, grotesque
remember, I didn't choose this.
- Where am I?
- Oh.
- Relax, Mr. Smith. You're in an alien hospital.
- I mean to you, it's an
- Okay, first of all, I've never seen this before.
This guy wakes up in an alien hospital
with the doctor's wearing a stethoscope and a white coat.
So we know he's a doctor.
- Shrimply Pibbles' life can be saved
if we replace his heart with your human penis.
- What the heck?
Shrimply Pibbles, I think is his name, needs a new heart
and they need a human penis be transplanted for this.
This is absurd.
Okay. That does not work.
You need to go organ, organ. We all know this.
This is crazy. Or see where this is going.
- The configuration of veins
the ratio of thickness to elasticity the.
- Oh my gosh.
The way that they're describing the elasticity
of the tissue of the penis, the scrotum,
and that the shapely size of the balls.
What? How is this going to be effective heart?
But it's an alien, so I have no idea.
Obviously it's supposed to be funny.
It's hilarious and totally inappropriate.
I do like how the imaging came straight
out of his groin too.
- Your genitals can be molded
into a functioning heart for the most important man-
- This is crazy. So his genitals can be molded
into a functioning heart.
I actually would like to see that happen.
I would like to see them take the tissue
of the genitals and make it
into a functioning heart that actually can pump blood.
If that is the function
of the heart inside this alien creature.
Typically heart transplant, the heart transplant,
I haven't heard that often of a genital transplant,
but I'm assuming if somebody had lost their genitals
maybe that there's a possibility that that could occur.
Not my specialty. I'm an emergency room doctor.
All right, Morty's an alien or something.
Come on Morty, fight it!
Oh man! Holy cow!
He needs to vomit this huge parasite looking thing.
Holy cow!
[Laughs]
I like, I guess that's Rick has tried
to tell him to pinch it off.
[Laughs]
That's typically what you say
when you're having a bowel movement
and you need to pinch it off.
This huge, horrible parasitic type creature that is vomiting
out of his body, that he can't actually get all the way out.
This is gotta be horrible and painful.
Obviously I've seen a ton of people vomiting in their life.
But the other thing we used to put inside patients
when they had a bad overdose
is something called the E-wall tube.
Which is a big plastic tube that literally you shove
into someone's stomach to literally pump their stomach.
Or if it's been more than an hour
but we still need to get whatever's in your body out,
we give you medications to do
what's called a whole bowel irrigation.
We give you meds to poop it all out quickly.
Unpleasant but life-saving, if we need to do that.
Oh my gosh it's going back in.
[Laughs]
I like how his family is like
'When is this gonna end?'
This is horrible, this poor guy.
Why can't they just grab it with something
and just pull it out.
This looks extremely painful,
but I don't understand how that large of a
creature's inside this little kid anyways,
that's really funny.
[Laughs]
Oh, shit!
Well, we already know he is not doing
a complex math equation
with his hands in his pants.
And he's obviously watching something on his phone
and he was interrupted by this snake, which again
seems a little inappropriate, but actually appropriate.
He was playing with something else, but now he has a snake.
So let's see what's going on.
- Target acquired.
- Oh, okay. All right.
Well more snakes killing other snakes.
- I am a robot set back in time
by the snake resistance to protect you from Serpacorps-
- Okay. All right.
Just come back in time to protect them against the snakes.
[Laughs]
Well, he killed the Terminator like snake.
What the? That is awesome.
So, they just injected something right into his chest.
Obviously, probably just injected something right
into his heart.
Most likely epinephrin, which is actually a true thing
that we do in the emergency department.
If we have to, we don't go through the bone and into the
the tissue that way.
Sometimes there are emergencies where we actually
have to crack the chest open, where we actually
make a massive incision from the sternum all the way down
to this side, stick this huge metal device that actually
cranks open the chest.
We can access the heart and we actually do CPR to the heart,
we can shock the heart.
And sometimes instead of giving the epinephrin
that we would give in an IV, we actually will inject it
directly into the heart tissue and see if that will help.
But we did not do what this just occurred or what happened
in the movie Pulp Fiction, where you just stab the heart
with epinephrin from the outside.
I'm assuming the serpents that came down was because
of what Morty was doing, um, which is quite funny.
Okay. The animal hospital, okay, pretty cool.
Alright. They hit a deer or a wounded deer.
All right, I love it.
That there's the snake is getting his blood pressure
checked. I don't even actually know where you
would check a blood pressure on a snake,
which is pretty funny.
- That's my nurse. And as a horse surgeon-
- Horse surgeon. I didn't know there's specific surgeons
for different animals.
- You know that a deer is closer
to a horse than you are to a doctor.
So let's save the measuring-
- Oh man!
- It's time to save a life!
- Jeez.
- Oh my gosh.
Sometimes in the hospital settings
there are egos and emotions going on between doctors
but everybody is there to work together, okay?
- This deer is wounded.
- Yeah. I was there, you don't have to rub it in.
- I mean, it's been shot.
- Oh, the deer has been shot, not just hit.
- May I help you, sir?
- Oh no! Deer territory!
- I took an oath that I would let no animal come to harm.
Except when sterilizing, aborting
or euthanizing them, or also when eating them.
That is true, what the vet says, okay.
As a medical doctor we take an oath
to first do no harm to any of our patients.
And I'm assuming vets take a very similar oath
to not hurt any animals, if they, you know,
don't necessarily need to.
But then what she said of euthanizing them or eating them.
- I'm calling my lawyer.
I hope for all our sakes you're as bad a surgeon-
- In your dreams, bitch!
- I liked how the hunter was giving crap
to the horse surgeon that she is.
Okay, that looks like Star Wars.
- Giving your body a ten-year course
in wasteland combat one limb at a time.
- Ow!
- I'm working with a mixed bag.
- What? Oh my gosh. Super cool!
Imagine this actually could happen.
Okay. Amputated limbs
or different body parts that you can take the energy
and the skill from that and put it into another.
Man, super cool. Look at that arm.
Holy cow, it's got a mind of its own.
Super cool!
Holy cow. Oh my gosh.
It's like Mad Max Beyond the Thunderdome.
All right. Wow. That is hilarious.
Imagine you had all four limbs, arms, both arms, both legs.
I hope one day we'd be able to enhance ourselves
without maybe trade-offs of DNA manipulation
all that stuff, if you're otherwise healthy
but that's a whole other can
of worms that we're not going to talk about today.
Totally funny. I've never seen this before.
The medical clips of this are hilarious, so very cool.
And we'll do some more in the future.
