(feet thud)
- Okay. (chuckles)
Creepy masked creatures, going halvsies,
and are we having a bonfire? What?
Today we are headed back to the post-apocalyptic world
and breaking down all of these shocking medical scenes
and far out injuries from "Dying Light."
Let's dive right in.
(foot thuds)
Oh!
Actually that was a sweet slide tackle.
- Sweet.
- Doesn't cause a lot of injury.
Just depends on where you're actually hitting somebody.
If you're hitting somebody at that angle,
at the lateral aspect of their knee,
then you can actually cause something
called the terrible triad of your knee
where you can injure the medial meniscus,
the medial cruciate ligament,
cause a lot of pain and injury.
Could you snap somebody's bone?
It'd be pretty hard to do that, especially the tibia.
Maybe be the fibula, which is on the outside.
But you have a lot of muscle that's protecting that area.
(foot thuds)
Oh, my gosh.
It is like a move in this game.
Dropping down and landing,
you increase the risk of potentially bruising your hip
which we also call an ecchymosis or a hematoma
which is a collection of blood.
I mean, if you do it enough, you can have fractures
that go into the femur bone, especially at the hip.
(blade swooshing) (blood sloshing)
What? Come on!
He cut a body in half.
I have to draw myself back in
and realize that these are zombies
and maybe they're gooey bodies
don't have as much structure anymore.
If you can slice that easily through tissue,
how are they able to like, walk and have structure?
That's all I'm saying.
But if somebody were to get a laceration
through the left flank,
you're worried about hitting the spleen.
Spleen sits right underneath the ribs on that side.
It's protected by the ribs.
You can actually live without your spleen.
So it all just depends on the damage
and if you need to go to the operating room or not.
(character grunts) (blade swishes)
(weapon thuds) Oh!
Oh, a little bit of blunt trauma
with some crazy spiked hammer-looking doolally.
- Language.
- We got people who get puncture wounds.
You really gotta clean them out well.
So we'll inject some lidocaine usually
if we're gonna use a lot of water
and it has to do with a certain amount of pressure.
So you want higher pressure
not a pressure that's gonna cause damage to the tissue
'cause if you have too much pressure,
you can actually dissect through the tissue.
Oh gosh, don't go to the ledge.
Okay, what is this thing?
Look at that.
It's an old like, non-functioning explosive.
Like, what?
That's a metal cylinder.
Might as well repurpose it.
(ammunition whooshes and thuds)
What was that?
Ouch.
One shot could incapacitate somebody pretty well
and lead you to fall.
And then obviously falling one story
will cause a little bit of pain,
maybe a fracture, but won't kill you.
But then if you fall down off the ledge like that,
it's gonna cause significant amount of trauma.
And you're probably not going to survive.
(foot thuds) Oh, geez.
Sliding on a wood plank.
Think about the potential
of getting a splinter into your leg.
Oh, my gosh.
The pain of that and having to take it out.
Oh, my goodness.
Sometimes even the smallest one,
I know we've all had little splinters, wreak havoc, too.
Some of the ones you can't even see with your own two eyes.
It's horrible.
Remember, quick, easy,
you can use duct tape-
♪ Woo-oo ♪
You can use different types of glues
that you can then just like, let drying and scrape off.
Those are quick, easy ways to try to get a splinter out
that you can't see.
(blade swooshes) (blood sloshes)
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Whoa.
- Why are you doing that?
The guy wasn't even comin' after you.
Massive blood trauma to the head, skull fracture,
intracranial bleeding, subarachnoid bleeding,
interparenchymal bleeding, epidural hematomas.
A bunch of different types of bleeding
that I'm just throwing words out there for you.
But then kicks to the left flank posterior ribs,
you can fracture the ribs, cause a puncture to the lung,
which will then cause a hemothorax
or a pneumothorax or a combination of the two.
(knife whooshes) Oh!
Little throwing.
It looked like it had like a lot of moss on it.
Oh, he's going down.
♪ Going down ♪
So did the knife hit a specific area
that finally it's starting to bleed out too much
and you're losing energy, you're losing power.
So as you lose blood, there's certain things that happen.
We have different grades of shock
having to do with hypovolemia shock,
meaning like, you're losing blood.
You might just be tachycardic or high heart rate.
You might be high heart rate, low blood pressure,
and not making urine.
You're becoming altered and confused.
So all different levels.
(feet thud) (blood sloshes)
Oh!
What?
I was not expecting that after all I've just watched.
Skull fracture, brain tissue.
If you're hitting it on a solid ground,
could this potentially happen? Maybe.
You're not gonna have that much blood
kind of squirt out per se.
(arrow whooshes)
Oh, we got a sliding arrow shot.
Super cool.
- Oh my god, did you see that shot?
(foot thuds)
- Jumping from that high up, are you high enough
that you can actually cause yourself calcaneal fractures
or any fractures up your spine?
So you gotta be really careful with that.
Sometimes we'll get spinal compression fractures.
The vertebral bodies will actually crush down
which then decreases the spacing
where your nerves come out the side
and it can cause nerve compression.
We actually have a procedure called the kyphoplasty
where instead of putting hardware in your body,
that sort of thing, it's a different type of polymer
that they can inject, which then actually pumps it back up.
Nice.
(arrow whooshes) Oh!
Oh, we got Rambo here.
Simple explosions.
It just took his leg out.
I see maybe a foot is gone.
If somebody has an amputation there,
you wanna control the bleeding.
If you can't,
that's where you would use a tourniquet near the wound.
I've had many people tell me in the comments,
oh, you do as proximal as possible.
No, you don't necessarily need to do that
because then you're decreasing blood flow
to all that other healthy tissue.
The other piece, remember to pick that up
and bring it with you 'cause you never know
if you can actually reattach it.
(explosion roars)
(feet thud)
Okay. (laughs)
Interestingly enough,
you're close to the explosions yourself in the game
but you're not getting any repercussions.
You're not getting any injury to yourself with it,
which you probably would.
You worry about hearing,
where you're gonna getting high tinnitus,
which is ringing in your ears.
Do you actually rupture your own eardrums
or hurt your own body or get shrapnel to yourself?
Talk to him, don't beat him up.
Oh, you just smacked them in the leg.
When people get hit like that, they don't go flying.
They typically just pop to the ground.
People will go flying when you actually get hit by the car.
- This will require stitches.
(electricity crackles) - Oh!
Electrocution in this game, sweet.
So what happens when you get electrocuted?
You have AC versus DC currents, alternating versus direct.
Directs are big blasts, one time hits.
ACs are back and forth, back and forth.
You can't release.
You have contraction like they have
where their bodies are flexing and you can't get out.
You know, you worry about burning tissue,
burning your nerves, nerve damage.
Oh, we're gonna shoot 'em.
Oh!
Oh, cool arrow.
We got an electrocution arrow.
A lot of times when people get electrocuted,
you can actually get a posterior shoulder dislocation.
Most shoulder dislocations are anterior, meaning forward.
But people have seizures or they get electrocuted
or get struck by lightning, they have a higher propensity
to get posterior shoulder dislocations
because of the amount of force.
Wa-bam!
- Whoop-pa!
(character grunts) (blade swishes)
- Where were these before?
Coming out behind somebody and using a blade.
Intraabdominal puncture wounds.
They can cause damage, but more like long term.
Like, not instantly killing somebody
because you're hitting intestines.
You might be hitting liver, spleen.
To really cause significant amount of damage
that would take somebody's life fast,
you'd actually have to hit the aorta
or the inferior vena cava,
but it's protected by your spine.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Running... parkour!
- Parkour!
(feet thud) - Oh!
(skull thuds) (Dr. Wagner gasps)
Lands and then grabs the face
and smashes the posterior skull onto the ground,
and you see blood.
You could definitely cause a lot of trauma this way.
We mostly see people get large hematomas,
sometimes skull fractures.
And then what can happen is obviously brain bleeding.
This game was pretty intense.
I'd love to...
Definitely like to try it out.
I need to get me a new gaming system.
