- Stop big weight
- Right through the hand out! Ouch!
Mysterious outbreaks, close quarter combat and
all of the crazy action of black iron prison.
Today we are reacting to and breaking
down all of the pulse pounding medical scenes
from The Callisto Protocol video game.
What kind of horrors lurk around the corners?
I don't know, but let's dive right in.
What the heck is happening?
- What's happening?
- Somebody's getting hit with some sort of hammer,
sledge hammer.
♪ Sledge hammer. ♪
- You can cause soft tissue injury.
Getting hematomas, getting contusions.
These are all like fancy words
for bruising or blood underneath the skin.
You think kidney punches in the back
so your kidneys are a retro peritoneal organ
but they are protected by a lot of muscles.
So yes, you can cause some trauma to those areas.
Obviously this is set in a prison.
I see prisoners sometimes, prisoners come in
in all shapes and sizes, different medical problems.
We treat them as if they're any other patient.
We don't know what their background is
outside of their medical history.
A lot of times they come in
for chronic medical conditions that can't be managed
at the facility that they're at
or they're doing something to get
out of their facility and maybe see some sunshine.
Oh,
oh
So it wasn't a hammer.
It looks like a huge type of crowbar right into the neck.
Holy cap.
The only way blood sprays like that is if you hit one
of the major vessels on the sides of the neck
which it could have occurred.
But you're going to hit basically trachea.
You're gonna hit the esophagus, you're need to go straight
through and potentially hit your spinal column
and the vertebral bodies and bones and everything like that.
Oh.
- Stop big weight
- Right through the hand! Ouch!
So your hand has so many nerves.
It's innovated by all these sensory nerves
these pain fiber nerves
and then going through the hand, you fracture your hand
you're now stuck in the soft tissue.
You're gonna lose function
of the nerves of the distal component of that.
And then obviously you have a lot
of blood vessels to that area.
Whoa.
Any fall greater than three times your own height
typically is a major trauma.
So with these type of injuries from such a fall
and you're still alive, we will do probably a head-to-toe
CT scan, head, neck, face, chest,
abdomen, pelvis with IV contrast.
Obviously we're gonna do a clinical assessment
but you do need these ancillary tests too.
Make sure that you're not missing something internal.
Whoa, whoa.
What did they just use to impale this guy?
You're going straight through the sternum,
potentially, maybe it's on his left side
more likely to hit the heart
cuz the heart goes down the the middle
and then shifts over to the left.
And that's why you only have two major lobes
of the left side of your lung versus three on the right.
You have a small little flap called the lingula
on the left side as well.
Oh wow!
The amount of force with that calcaneus, the heel,
to then take the arm off.
I've never seen that obviously
we've seen people who've had arms come off
typically due to major traumas most of the time.
Either car accidents or motorcycle accidents.
If that happens where it's basically gone
- Gone.
- Could you put a tourniquet on it?
You would want to, if you have enough tissue proximal
to the area time when you're actually putting it
on and get the bleeding to stop.
Just cut this body in half.
I've seen comments on previous injuries
of people getting cut in half
and there's very rare cases of somebody surviving.
Yes, potentially because the attachment process
would be very, very difficult.
You're cutting through your intestines,
you're cutting through your urine genital system,
your P tubes,
you're cutting through your major blood vessels
so your inferior vena cava as well as your abdominal aorta.
You see these hand injuries all the time
in TV shows and movies.
You don't really see it very often in real life.
You typically see injuries relating to a lawnmower
or a snowblower where something gets caught
and an individual forgets to turn it off.
They try to remove whatever's blocking it
and try to fix it and then it restarts and
either cuts off fingers,
a hand or a lacerated arm or a leg.
Those are the injuries that you typically see.
Oh!
What!
You see people whose jaws potentially get ripped off.
That's really hard to do.
You can obviously dislocate the joint
you can break the bone, but then also trying to
take the whole jaw off.
Got these huge mass inner muscles on the sides of your face
your teragoids, a lot of different muscles
that are keeping it intact.
Taking the boot to the face.
You can get fractures of the orbit itself.
You can get maxillary fractures, depressed skull fractures
so to speak, if it's above that area.
Just depends on what's actually breaking.
And then treatment ends up being for us,
one, don't sneeze because
you're gonna blow some air right into the soft tissue.
And then the other component is, do you need plates
in there? Or it's gonna heal on its own.
Whoa!
This thing is crazy creepy
♪ Spooky, scary. ♪
- Caused a cervical dislocation, so twisting, rotating.
People say, oh my gosh,
it's like a Chiropractor's technique. It's not.
Chiropractors and Osteopathic docs,
when they do something called HVLA,
high velocity low amplitude.
Basically they're taking your neck
into three different planes where one is not an extreme
in any direction.
Um Okay.
- Okay.
- The guy gets impaled through the chest, still alive.
So you've all heard me say this.
If you get impaled, don't take the object out
until you're are able to seek medical help.
Same idea here.
The minute you take that out, it's just probably going
to pool and blood go everywhere
and you're going to die super, super fast.
Oh, we got a new type of assailant,
we have somebody on fire.
♪ Fire. ♪
- So the question ends up being
when you're actually fighting somebody on fire
are you getting burned as well?
I would assume so.
If you're on fire like this
you wouldn't actually be able to breathe
because the fire is taking your oxygen away.
Plus, you're breathing in the fumes
into your airway itself causing burning
which then will not only slough off tissue
but then will cause a mechanism
of you having inflammation, swelling
and will actually cut off your airway as well.
Whoa. I was gonna ask, that was my next question.
What is the mechanism
and how do you actually kill these creatures?
- Removing the head or destroying the brain.
- This guy just took off his head
and it's still coming out.
It's almost like running around
with the chicken with his head cut off.
Basically just like so, same idea here.
Oh my gosh! No!
Just he's overtaking him now.
Going deep into the brain.
There's a small bone on the posterior aspect
of the eye socket that's protecting it away from the brain
but the brain's kind of sitting right on the opposite side.
This game is really detailed, interesting concept,
really gnarly injuries.
