[♩ INTRO ]
Most of the time when we talk about science, there are a lot of careful methods and meticulous
calculations involved.
But occasionally, it can get a bit … unconventional.
Over the years, there have been some things done in the name of science that were pretty
outrageous, even if they taught us something along the way.
Some of them were just outrageously stupid.
Others were both stupid and really sad.
Here are six of them.
[1.
Isaac Newton]
Isaac Newton is best known for discovering gravity, but he also did a lot of research
in optics.
Around 1665, he began studying prisms and how they interact with light, and his experiments
were among the first to demonstrate that white light can be split up into a spectrum of colors.
But his curiosity about light and color wasn't limited to physics.
He was also interested in how the mind perceived the idea of color, and how physical sensations
in his eye could affect his perception.
So he stuck a bodkin -- aka a long thin needle -- almost directly into his eye.
Or more specifically, between his eyeball and the bone near the back of his eye socket.
Because that's totally a great idea.
He used the bodkin to poke different parts along his eyeball, and he noticed that different
colored spots would appear.
He also found that the colors changed depending on the pressure he applied and the amount
of light in the room.
For a less dangerous and terrifying experiment, you can see something similar if you rub your
eyes while they're closed.
We now know that what Newton experienced came from photoreceptors called cones, which are
specialized cells in your retina.
Cone cells contribute to your perception of color by responding to different wavelengths
of light.
By applying pressure to his eyeball, Newton was essentially stimulating these cells as
if they were being hit by light.
Which I'm sure was cool, but you'd think Newton would've realized that eyes are pretty
delicate, and that poking them with a giant needle would be risky.
He was okay, but that doesn't mean it was a smart thing to do.
[2.
Isaac Newton, AGAIN]
The bodkin incident wasn't the only time Newton was careless with his eyes.
He also performed an experiment where he was trying to evoke afterimages — those fuzzy
shapes or spots you see after looking at a bright light, like a camera flash.
Afterimages happen when the photoreceptor cells in your retina become overstimulated,
and remain active for a while even after the light is gone.
To recreate this effect, Newton decided to go into a dark room with a mirror and stare
at the reflection of the sun with his right eye.
When he looked away, he noticed a spot.
So he stared at the sun again.
And again.
Because sometimes you don't learn the first time.
After a while, he noticed that the image of the sun had made such a lasting impression
that he could even see the spot if he closed his right eye and opened his left one.
And he realized he might have damaged his eyes when he couldn't see anything but the
image of the sun wherever he looked.
So, he locked himself in a dark room for about three days until his vision started to return,
but it took several months to go back to normal.
Today, we know that Newton likely suffered from solar retinopathy, or damage to the retina
caused by bright light or ultraviolet rays from the sun.
That's why wearing protective eyewear while welding or watching a solar eclipse is so
important.
[3.
Sir Humphrey Davy ]
Speaking of precautions, if you've ever taken a science class, you probably know that
safety is the first thing you talk about when you step foot in a lab.
Well, unless it's 1799 and you're working with Sir Humphrey Davy.
Before Davy became one of the most famous figures in science history, he was a lab assistant
at the Pneumatic Institution in England.
And his work was focused on determining the medical uses for different gases.
He tested them by setting up reactions, then inhaling the unknown gas products and noting
their effects, without any idea of how dangerous the gases might be.
One gas, which Davy's boss had worked with before, had especially unusual effects.
It was nitrous oxide, and when Davy inhaled it, he felt like his senses were heightened,
and had the urge to laugh at everything.
We still don't totally understand how nitrous oxide works in our bodies, but we do know
that it can lead to euphoria.
It's also associated with reduced anxiety and a higher threshold for pain, which is
why some dentists use it.
Typically, dentists give patients a dose of half nitrous oxide and half oxygen at about
5 liters per minute.
But on one occasion, Davy inhaled about 15 liters of pure nitrous oxide in 7 minutes
to determine the effects of the dosage.
And, thankfully, didn't hurt himself.
Instead, he liked the experience so much that, after work hours, he encouraged his friends
to inhale it out of silk bags.
It became almost a social trend, used by poets and philosophers to heighten their senses
and supposedly bring them closer to their art.
Davy's risk-taking helped launch his fame as a chemist, and a few years later, he discovered
the elements sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, strontium, and barium.
Which is an impressively long list.
But he didn't do it by inhaling them.
Still, during his career, he did breathe in a lot more than the relatively harmless nitrous
oxide.
All the exposure to toxic gases probably took a toll on his health, and at just over the
age of 50, he quickly became ill and suffered a stroke and heart attack.
Davy had one of the most successful careers in science, but ultimately, the thing caused
him to rise to fame also likely caused his death.
[4.
Stubbins Ffirth]
Another risk-taker was Stubbins Ffirth, who arguably has one of the coolest names in science.
He also has one of the most disgusting stories, so … you've been warned.
In 1804, to obtain his medical degree, Ffirth put his life on the line to research yellow
fever.
It's a viral disease that can cause fever, muscle and joint pain, and jaundice — or
yellowing of the skin, which is where the name comes from.
It's a common virus in tropical areas, but in 1793, a large epidemic killed thousands
of people in Philadelphia.
The prominent doctors at the time hypothesized that the disease was due to rotten coffee
imports, brackish water, or something called miasma — by which they basically meant "bad
air."
But Ffirth wanted to figure out the true cause of the disease, and he suspected it had to
do with the patients ' black vomit.
And that's where it got nasty.
First, he fed the vomit to dogs.
They wouldn't get sick, so he injected it into the veins of both dogs and cats — but
there were no results there, either.
So he decided to expose himself to it.
Which was noble of him, I guess, but still very dumb.
He poured vomit into open cuts and into his eyes, boiled it and inhaled the gases, and
eventually just drank the stuff.
And when he still didn't get sick, he repeated the experiments using other bodily fluids
from infected patients.
Ultimately, despite all these dangerous experiments, he never got sick, so he concluded that yellow
fever couldn't be an infectious disease.
What Ffirth didn't know is that infectious diseases don't always pass from person to
person directly.
Because we've since learned that yellow fever is actually spread by mosquitos.
Thankfully, we also now have a vaccine and preventative measures to protect us from the
virus.
And it doesn't even involve drinking bodily fluids!
[5.
Louis Slotin]
Over a hundred years later, in the 1940s, scientists like Louis Slotin were still making
bad decisions — except this time, they involved nuclear weapons.
So the stakes were a little higher.
It was a few months after World War II ended, and the scientists who'd developed the first
two atomic bombs at the secret Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico were studying a third
nuclear core.
If the war had still been going, it would've been developed into another bomb.
But since the war was over, they were instead using it to study exactly what happens when
a nuclear reactor goes supercritical, and how to get it there.
Nuclear reactors work because elements like plutonium radiate neutrons.
And when there are enough free neutrons bouncing around in an enclosed space, it can create
a self-sustaining chain reaction.
If the reaction rate gets high enough, it becomes supercritical, and the plutonium atoms
split apart in fission reactions that release a ton of energy.
Slotin led a team that worked on the third plutonium core, trying to bring the reaction
as close to supercritical as possible so they could study it.
Their core was surrounded by two halves of a beryllium sphere, which was great at reflecting
neutrons and letting them bounce around.
To prevent the core from going supercritical, Slotin needed to keep the two halves of the
beryllium sphere separated, so the reaction couldn't get out of control.
Except, instead of using the pre-approved spacing blocks, Slotin just wedged a screwdriver
between the two halves.
It had worked a dozen times before, and he was the expert, so why not?
But Slotin should have realized how dangerous it was.
His predecessor, Harry Daghlian, had died from radiation poisoning just months earlier.
From the same plutonium core.
In Daghlian's case, he was conducting an experiment that used bricks to reflect the
neutrons.
At one point, a brick slipped out of his hands, making the reactor go supercritical.
He was able to knock off the brick and stop the reaction, but his exposure to the radiation
killed him after only 25 days.
Despite that accident, Slotin just kept using his screwdriver.
And this time, it didn't go so well.
As he slowly lowered the two halves closer and closer together, the screwdriver slipped.
The nuclear core immediately created a fission reaction, causing a radioactive flash of blue
light.
After only 9 days, Slotin died of severe radiation poisoning.
It's calculated that he was exposed to 1000 rads of radiation — more than twice the
lethal dose.
After his death, the core was dubbed the "demon core", and all hands-on criticality research
at Los Alamos was terminated.
[6.
Werner Forssmann]
In 1956, Werner Forssmann, André Cournand, and Dickinson Richards collectively won the
Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for their work on a technique known as heart catheterization.
But the research actually began almost 30 years earlier in 1929, when Forssmann broke
all the rules to prove a point.
Fresh out of medical school, he began a surgical residency, which allowed him to pursue one
of his big ideas.
He'd read about inserting catheters into the animals' hearts as a diagnostic technique
to measure the pressure in their hearts.
And he wondered if this was possible in humans, too.
His mentor supported his ideas, but like any reasonable person, encouraged him to do more
research to make sure the procedure was safe.
But Forssmann was convinced that it was doable, so he went ahead and tried it ... on himself.
He used a ureteral catheter — a long, skinny tube normally used to drain urine from bladders
— and inserted it into a major vein in his arm.
Then, he pushed the catheter about 65 centimeters up his vein towards his heart.
As if that wasn't intense enough, he casually walked through the hospital to the X-ray room
— with the catheter still in his arm! — and had a nurse help him use the X-ray to guide
the catheter into a chamber in his heart.
It was really risky, and Forssman got in trouble with the hospital for breaking the rules,
but it worked!
And over 10 years later, thanks to additional work by Cournand and Richards, heart catheterization
became accepted in the medical community.
In the end, it might have been worth it for Forssmann, since he was fine and the experiment
eventually led to a Nobel Prize.
But he risked both his career and his life in the process — and as scientists like
Davy and Slotin learned the hard way, ignoring safety can end in tragedy.
From their stories, we can learn how to become better scientists and curious thinkers — but
we can also learn to have more common sense than they did.
Because, sometimes, really smart people can make really bad decisions.

BREAKING! George Soros Promises 'NATIONWIDE RIOTS' If Trump Does It This Week! THIS IS HUGE! - Duration: 6:53.
BREAKING!
Soros Promises 'NATIONWIDE RIOTS' If Trump Does It This Week!
THIS IS HUGE!
Ever since Trump defeated Satanic Democrat Hillary Clinton in the election, the left
has been doing all they can to bring him down.
Democrats want the government to control our lives, and they want to take our hard-earned
money and give it to their constituents in return for their loyalty at the ballot box.
This is how they stay in power year after year.
So when Trump came along and wanted less government control, and for us to keep more of what we
earned, the Dems were having none of it.
Trump is systematically destroying a corrupted system that Democrats love, so it's no surprise
they are fighting back tooth & nail.
They are fighting back by concocting stories about collusion with Russia to undermine President
Trump by casting doubt on his legitimacy.
It has been almost a year since the investigations into collusion began, and to date, there is
absolutely ZERO evidence that any took place.
Like Jeff on Facebook
At the head of the investigation is special counsel Robert Mueller.
When Mueller was appointed to look into possible collusion on the part of the Trump campaign,
he immediately hired a team of investigators who had close ties to the Clinton crime family.
One top FBI agent who hates Trump had to be fired after it became known that he conspired
against him with others, and tainted the investigation.
Rumors are now swirling that President Trump will fire Mueller as it's become obvious
this is just a Democrat witch-hunt to take him down.
Enter head-of-the-snake, top Demoncrat socialist, George Soros.
Soros is well-known for funding anti-American organizations that send thugs & terrorists
into the streets to wreak havoc on our lives.
One such group is MoveOn.org.
This group is now threatening nationwide unrest of the type we see with Antifa & BLM riots
if President Trump does indeed sack special counsel Mueller.
Via YourNewsWire:
"George Soros has boasted about plans to roll out nationwide riots across the U.S.
if Mueller drops his Trump Russia probe.
The Soros funded radical left group MoveOn.org has warned it "will begin hours after news
breaks of a Mueller firing," according to a post on its website:
Donald Trump is publicly considering firing special counsel Robert Mueller, the person
leading the Department of Justice investigation of possible illegal actions by Donald Trump
and members of his presidential campaign, and the efforts to conceal those activities.
This would be a constitutional crisis for our country.
It would demand an immediate and unequivocal response to show that we will not tolerate
abuse of power from Donald Trump.
Our response in the minutes and hours following a power grab will dictate what happens next,
and whether Congress—the only body with the constitutional power and obligation to
rein Trump in from his rampage—will do anything to stand up to him.
That's why we're preparing to hold emergency "Nobody is Above the Law" rallies around
the country in the event they are needed.
Intellihub.com reports: Now the snowflakes at MoveOn.org are saying that it would be
a "constitutional crisis" if Trump were to fire Mueller and vow to hold emergency
"Nobody Is Above the Law" rallies in all 50 states.
The Alt-Left group's plan is as follows:
If Mueller is fired BEFORE 2 P.M. local time —> events will begin @ 5 P.M. local time
If Mueller is fired AFTER 2 P.M. local time —> events will begin @ noon local time the
following day."
President Trump is fully within his Constitutional rights to fire Mueller.
Many Republican lawmakers believe he should do just that as it's obvious this isn't
about justice, it's about taking out Trump because butthurt libs just can't get over
the fact that he won.
Indeed, just today it is being reported that FBI agents & DOJ officials might be investigated
by the House for anti-Trump bias.
Via NewsWeek:
"Top officials at the FBI and the U.S. Justice Department might be subpoenaed as part of
a House investigation into alleged agency bias against President Donald Trump.
A Republican on the House Judiciary Committee said Saturday that the panel's chairman,
Representative Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), has vowed to subpoena several leading officials
as Trump and some GOP Congress members stoke speculation that intelligence and law enforcement
agencies are perpetuating partisan opposition against the Trump administration.
Republicans are apparently focused on deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe; FBI lawyer Lisa
Page; FBI counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok, who once worked on Special Counsel
Robert Mueller's team investigating the Trump campaign; and former associate deputy
attorney general Bruce Ohr and his wife Nellie, who were both tied to the infamous dossier
alleging collusion between Trump and the Russian government.
Speaking about the probe on Fox News, Representative Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said he believes there
has been a full-blown campaign within Washington to derail Trump's presidency, which supposedly
including federal agencies.
"President Trump won in spite of the Republican establishment being against him, the Democrats
being against him, the elite media being against him and the FBI and Justice Department being
against him," Jordan said.
Jordan did not say when the subpoenas might come, and Goodlatte's office has not confirmed
the plans.
Jordan has been an outspoken critic of Mueller's investigation into the Trump campaign's
suspected Kremlin ties and has even called for a second special counsel to look into
Mueller's team for supposed bias.
Trump has long claimed that Mueller's probe and the congressional investigations into
Russian election interference are a partisan "witch hunt" aimed at toppling his presidency.
But the attacks have escalated in recent weeks as several developments have invited new scrutiny
of the people probing Trump.
Media reports revealed that Strzok was taken off Mueller's team over the summer after
Mueller learned of texts Strzok sent to Page during the 2016 campaign criticizing Trump
and his campaign.
Meanwhile, Fox News revealed Bruce Ohr was demoted over meetings he held last year with
Christopher Steele, the British spy who compiled the Trump dossier, and Glenn Simpson, founder
of the company that produced it, Fusion GPS.
Nellie Ohr reportedly worked for Fusion GPS during the campaign."
Florida Republican House member, Matt Gaetz who represents the 1st District wants Mueller
fired immediately.
If Soros & his minions want to riot in the streets in an attempt to take down President
Trump, we'll be out there making sure it doesn't happen.
What do you think about this?
Please share this news if you think Soros should be locked up for Treason!

The YouTube Olympic Champion | Olympics on the Record - Duration: 5:09.
Some athletes turn up at the Olympic Games
with everyone expecting them to win.
But for every "must-win" there are dozens of "also-rans"
making up the field.
Every now and then, the stars align
and one of those "also-rans"
turns the world upside down and wins Olympic Gold.
Well, this is the story
of a humble young man's attempt to win
one of those miraculous medals.
He came from the village of Toco,
in the north-eastern corner of the island of Trinidad,
where football, cricket
and sprinting are the dominant sports.
Keshorn Walcott - Keshie, to his friends -
was 19 years old in 2012.
He was the World Junior Javelin Champion,
having taken up the sport just three years earlier.
As a boy, his first coach was YouTube.
Jan, what are you doing?
I'm training, on YouTube.
It's exhausting.
He studied videos of his role model,
two-time Olympic champion Andreas Thorkildsen, of Norway.
Thorkildsen had won gold with a throw of 90.57 metres
in Beijing four years earlier, an Olympic record.
And won in Athens in 2004.
In javelin, athletes have three attempts to throw
a metal-tipped spear, weighing 800g, as far as they can.
That's the weight of a wellington boot and a chicken.
On to the London Games,
Walcott's first senior competition,
which saw him come up against
the smooth, relaxed technique of his hero.
Walcott and his coach went into the Games primarily to gain
experience and enjoy it.
Into the qualifying round,
where the 19-year-old and 43 other competitors
tried to achieve the magic distance of 82 metres
that meant automatic progress to the final.
Only seven men managed it, including Thorkildsen,
who went through just one place behind
leader Vitezslav Vesely of the Czech Republic.
That left five places in the final still up for grabs.
Walcott just qualified
with a throw of 81.75 metres, in tenth place.
He had made it.
Into the final.
His first throw was a personal best and a national record.
Walcott's second throw was 84.58 metres.
Thorkildsen, with the experience
of two Olympic titles to his name,
couldn't even get over the 83 metres mark
and placed only sixth.
Ukraine's Oleksandr Pyatnytsya
could thwart Walcott's dream debut.
But he threw seven centimetres shorter
than the young Trinidadian.
Could Antti Ruuskanen, of Finland, topple him?
Nope.
Third and a bronze for Finland.
No-one, not even Walcott, could believe the gold was his.
I was even surprised I made the final. It was...
I just went out there relaxed
because I wasn't really looking for much.
I just went out there to enjoy
and eventually we'll enjoy a lot more.
It was the first time a non-European
had won this event since 1952,
when American Cy Young topped the pile.
Walcott set a national record
as he became the youngest javelin winner
in the history of the Games.
His Olympic medal was Trinidad & Tobago's first
in a field event
and he became only the second winner of Olympic gold
in his country's history,
following Hasley Crawford's victory in the men's 100 metres
at the 1976 Olympics in Montreal.
I know they're celebrating more than me right now.
He wasn't wrong.
It sent Trinidad into a frenzy.
People went crazy, people went wild.
So wild, in fact,
that they gave Walcott a luxury home worth $2.5 million,
more than $150 USD in cash,
around 20,000 square feet of land,
stuck his name on the side of a Caribbean Airlines plane,
and even named a lighthouse after him.
Oh, and when he arrived back home,
the Prime Minister came to meet him at the airport
with thousands of supporters to give him a hero's welcome.
They declared a bank holiday in his honour.

6 Stupid and Dangerous Things Scientists Did to Themselves - Duration: 10:24.
[♩ INTRO ]
Most of the time when we talk about science, there are a lot of careful methods and meticulous
calculations involved.
But occasionally, it can get a bit … unconventional.
Over the years, there have been some things done in the name of science that were pretty
outrageous, even if they taught us something along the way.
Some of them were just outrageously stupid.
Others were both stupid and really sad.
Here are six of them.
[1.
Isaac Newton]
Isaac Newton is best known for discovering gravity, but he also did a lot of research
in optics.
Around 1665, he began studying prisms and how they interact with light, and his experiments
were among the first to demonstrate that white light can be split up into a spectrum of colors.
But his curiosity about light and color wasn't limited to physics.
He was also interested in how the mind perceived the idea of color, and how physical sensations
in his eye could affect his perception.
So he stuck a bodkin -- aka a long thin needle -- almost directly into his eye.
Or more specifically, between his eyeball and the bone near the back of his eye socket.
Because that's totally a great idea.
He used the bodkin to poke different parts along his eyeball, and he noticed that different
colored spots would appear.
He also found that the colors changed depending on the pressure he applied and the amount
of light in the room.
For a less dangerous and terrifying experiment, you can see something similar if you rub your
eyes while they're closed.
We now know that what Newton experienced came from photoreceptors called cones, which are
specialized cells in your retina.
Cone cells contribute to your perception of color by responding to different wavelengths
of light.
By applying pressure to his eyeball, Newton was essentially stimulating these cells as
if they were being hit by light.
Which I'm sure was cool, but you'd think Newton would've realized that eyes are pretty
delicate, and that poking them with a giant needle would be risky.
He was okay, but that doesn't mean it was a smart thing to do.
[2.
Isaac Newton, AGAIN]
The bodkin incident wasn't the only time Newton was careless with his eyes.
He also performed an experiment where he was trying to evoke afterimages — those fuzzy
shapes or spots you see after looking at a bright light, like a camera flash.
Afterimages happen when the photoreceptor cells in your retina become overstimulated,
and remain active for a while even after the light is gone.
To recreate this effect, Newton decided to go into a dark room with a mirror and stare
at the reflection of the sun with his right eye.
When he looked away, he noticed a spot.
So he stared at the sun again.
And again.
Because sometimes you don't learn the first time.
After a while, he noticed that the image of the sun had made such a lasting impression
that he could even see the spot if he closed his right eye and opened his left one.
And he realized he might have damaged his eyes when he couldn't see anything but the
image of the sun wherever he looked.
So, he locked himself in a dark room for about three days until his vision started to return,
but it took several months to go back to normal.
Today, we know that Newton likely suffered from solar retinopathy, or damage to the retina
caused by bright light or ultraviolet rays from the sun.
That's why wearing protective eyewear while welding or watching a solar eclipse is so
important.
[3.
Sir Humphrey Davy ]
Speaking of precautions, if you've ever taken a science class, you probably know that
safety is the first thing you talk about when you step foot in a lab.
Well, unless it's 1799 and you're working with Sir Humphrey Davy.
Before Davy became one of the most famous figures in science history, he was a lab assistant
at the Pneumatic Institution in England.
And his work was focused on determining the medical uses for different gases.
He tested them by setting up reactions, then inhaling the unknown gas products and noting
their effects, without any idea of how dangerous the gases might be.
One gas, which Davy's boss had worked with before, had especially unusual effects.
It was nitrous oxide, and when Davy inhaled it, he felt like his senses were heightened,
and had the urge to laugh at everything.
We still don't totally understand how nitrous oxide works in our bodies, but we do know
that it can lead to euphoria.
It's also associated with reduced anxiety and a higher threshold for pain, which is
why some dentists use it.
Typically, dentists give patients a dose of half nitrous oxide and half oxygen at about
5 liters per minute.
But on one occasion, Davy inhaled about 15 liters of pure nitrous oxide in 7 minutes
to determine the effects of the dosage.
And, thankfully, didn't hurt himself.
Instead, he liked the experience so much that, after work hours, he encouraged his friends
to inhale it out of silk bags.
It became almost a social trend, used by poets and philosophers to heighten their senses
and supposedly bring them closer to their art.
Davy's risk-taking helped launch his fame as a chemist, and a few years later, he discovered
the elements sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, strontium, and barium.
Which is an impressively long list.
But he didn't do it by inhaling them.
Still, during his career, he did breathe in a lot more than the relatively harmless nitrous
oxide.
All the exposure to toxic gases probably took a toll on his health, and at just over the
age of 50, he quickly became ill and suffered a stroke and heart attack.
Davy had one of the most successful careers in science, but ultimately, the thing caused
him to rise to fame also likely caused his death.

Stubbins Ffirth]
Another risk-taker was Stubbins Ffirth, who arguably has one of the coolest names in science.
He also has one of the most disgusting stories, so … you've been warned.
In 1804, to obtain his medical degree, Ffirth put his life on the line to research yellow
fever.
It's a viral disease that can cause fever, muscle and joint pain, and jaundice — or
yellowing of the skin, which is where the name comes from.
It's a common virus in tropical areas, but in 1793, a large epidemic killed thousands
of people in Philadelphia.
The prominent doctors at the time hypothesized that the disease was due to rotten coffee
imports, brackish water, or something called miasma — by which they basically meant "bad
air."
But Ffirth wanted to figure out the true cause of the disease, and he suspected it had to
do with the patients ' black vomit.
And that's where it got nasty.
First, he fed the vomit to dogs.
They wouldn't get sick, so he injected it into the veins of both dogs and cats — but
there were no results there, either.
So he decided to expose himself to it.
Which was noble of him, I guess, but still very dumb.
He poured vomit into open cuts and into his eyes, boiled it and inhaled the gases, and
eventually just drank the stuff.
And when he still didn't get sick, he repeated the experiments using other bodily fluids
from infected patients.
Ultimately, despite all these dangerous experiments, he never got sick, so he concluded that yellow
fever couldn't be an infectious disease.
What Ffirth didn't know is that infectious diseases don't always pass from person to
person directly.
Because we've since learned that yellow fever is actually spread by mosquitos.
Thankfully, we also now have a vaccine and preventative measures to protect us from the
virus.
And it doesn't even involve drinking bodily fluids!
[5.
Louis Slotin]
Over a hundred years later, in the 1940s, scientists like Louis Slotin were still making
bad decisions — except this time, they involved nuclear weapons.
So the stakes were a little higher.
It was a few months after World War II ended, and the scientists who'd developed the first
two atomic bombs at the secret Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico were studying a third
nuclear core.
If the war had still been going, it would've been developed into another bomb.
But since the war was over, they were instead using it to study exactly what happens when
a nuclear reactor goes supercritical, and how to get it there.
Nuclear reactors work because elements like plutonium radiate neutrons.
And when there are enough free neutrons bouncing around in an enclosed space, it can create
a self-sustaining chain reaction.
If the reaction rate gets high enough, it becomes supercritical, and the plutonium atoms
split apart in fission reactions that release a ton of energy.
Slotin led a team that worked on the third plutonium core, trying to bring the reaction
as close to supercritical as possible so they could study it.
Their core was surrounded by two halves of a beryllium sphere, which was great at reflecting
neutrons and letting them bounce around.
To prevent the core from going supercritical, Slotin needed to keep the two halves of the
beryllium sphere separated, so the reaction couldn't get out of control.
Except, instead of using the pre-approved spacing blocks, Slotin just wedged a screwdriver
between the two halves.
It had worked a dozen times before, and he was the expert, so why not?
But Slotin should have realized how dangerous it was.
His predecessor, Harry Daghlian, had died from radiation poisoning just months earlier.
From the same plutonium core.
In Daghlian's case, he was conducting an experiment that used bricks to reflect the
neutrons.
At one point, a brick slipped out of his hands, making the reactor go supercritical.
He was able to knock off the brick and stop the reaction, but his exposure to the radiation
killed him after only 25 days.
Despite that accident, Slotin just kept using his screwdriver.
And this time, it didn't go so well.
As he slowly lowered the two halves closer and closer together, the screwdriver slipped.
The nuclear core immediately created a fission reaction, causing a radioactive flash of blue
light.
After only 9 days, Slotin died of severe radiation poisoning.
It's calculated that he was exposed to 1000 rads of radiation — more than twice the
lethal dose.
After his death, the core was dubbed the "demon core", and all hands-on criticality research
at Los Alamos was terminated.
[6.
Werner Forssmann]
In 1956, Werner Forssmann, André Cournand, and Dickinson Richards collectively won the
Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for their work on a technique known as heart catheterization.
But the research actually began almost 30 years earlier in 1929, when Forssmann broke
all the rules to prove a point.
Fresh out of medical school, he began a surgical residency, which allowed him to pursue one
of his big ideas.
He'd read about inserting catheters into the animals' hearts as a diagnostic technique
to measure the pressure in their hearts.
And he wondered if this was possible in humans, too.
His mentor supported his ideas, but like any reasonable person, encouraged him to do more
research to make sure the procedure was safe.
But Forssmann was convinced that it was doable, so he went ahead and tried it ... on himself.
He used a ureteral catheter — a long, skinny tube normally used to drain urine from bladders
— and inserted it into a major vein in his arm.
Then, he pushed the catheter about 65 centimeters up his vein towards his heart.
As if that wasn't intense enough, he casually walked through the hospital to the X-ray room
— with the catheter still in his arm! — and had a nurse help him use the X-ray to guide
the catheter into a chamber in his heart.
It was really risky, and Forssman got in trouble with the hospital for breaking the rules,
but it worked!
And over 10 years later, thanks to additional work by Cournand and Richards, heart catheterization
became accepted in the medical community.
In the end, it might have been worth it for Forssmann, since he was fine and the experiment
eventually led to a Nobel Prize.
But he risked both his career and his life in the process — and as scientists like
Davy and Slotin learned the hard way, ignoring safety can end in tragedy.
From their stories, we can learn how to become better scientists and curious thinkers — but
we can also learn to have more common sense than they did.
Because, sometimes, really smart people can make really bad decisions.

What The Cast Of True Blood Looks Like Today - Duration: 4:53.
HBO's True Blood definitely had its ups and downs over its seven season run, but to the
show's fans, it will always be remembered for its campy and captivating portrayal of
supernatural Southern life.
Let's see what the cast of True Blood has been up to since the series finale.
Anna Paquin
Already an Oscar winner when she signed on to True Blood, Anna Paquin also received quite
a few awards while she was on the series — including a Golden Globe.
Since then, the actress voiced a character in Pixar's The Good Dinosaur, made a guest
appearance in the History Channel's Roots miniseries, and landed the lead role in the
CBC Television series Bellevue
Paquin also recently appeared in Netflix's Alias Grace, and will be seen in the highly
anticipated Amazon anthology series Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams.
Stephen Moyer
Paquin's husband Stephen Moyer has also kept busy since wrapping up True Blood, both onscreen
and off.
In 2015, he appeared in the Will Smith-led biopic Concussion, and that same year, he
played one of the leads in the FX series The Bastard Executioner.
Moyer took roles in the TV drama Safe House and the Fox miniseries Shots Fired before
signing on to lead the live-action X-Men series The Gifted.
Outside of his acting work, Moyer works with the Clare Foundation, which fights against
addiction, something he has struggled with in the past.
Sam Trammell
Outside of True Blood, Sam Trammell's recent roles include appearances in the John Travolta
crime drama I Am Wrath and the Daniel Radcliffe thriller Imperium.
Trammell also landed a role on another hit TV series, playing the handsy band partner
of Mandy Moore's Rebecca on NBC's hit series This Is Us.
Ryan Kwanten
Australian actor Ryan Kwanten captured viewers' hearts as Sookie's sweet but kind of dimwitted
brother Jason.
Since then, his notable appearances include parts in Reach Me, Kidnapping Mr. Heineken,
and Who Gets the Dog?
opposite Alicia Silverstone.
In 2018, Kwanten will star in the Crackle drama series The Oath.
Rutina Wesley
Since True Blood, Rutina Wesley has appeared on shows like Hannibal and Arrow, but her
biggest role was the lead character in the Ava DuVernay series Queen Sugar.
Wesley earned a NAACP Image Award nomination for outstanding actress in a drama series
for her work on the show.
Alexander Skarsgard
Unfortunately, Alexander Skarsgard was overlooked by the major TV awards for his enticing role
as Eric Northman on True Blood, but he made up for it with a terrifying, Emmy-winning
turn on the HBO miniseries Big Little Lies in 2017.
Before that, Skarsgard appeared in Zoolander 2, The Diary of a Teenage Girl, Hidden, and
the action comedy War on Everyone, before leading his own blockbuster with The Legend
of Tarzan in 2016.
Joe Manganiello
Since True Blood went off the air, Joe Manganiello has kept busy.
In 2015, he gifted us with a second Magic Mike appearance in Magic Mike XXL, and the
next year he popped up in an episode of Mom, as well as in Netflix's Pee-wee's Big Holiday.
In 2017, he fittingly voiced Hefty Smurf in Smurfs: The Lost Village.
However, what might be Manganiello's most exciting role yet has been long delayed.
The actor signed on to play the Batman villain Deathstroke, but the movie has been struck
by production issues and pushed back from its planned release date.
For now, fans can look forward to seeing Manganiello act opposite Dwayne Johnson in the upcoming
video game adaptation Rampage.
Deborah Ann Woll
Instantly recognizable to True Blood fans thanks to her fiery red hair, Deborah Ann
Woll actually lost the signature look for her most notable role since the HBO series.
In 2015, Woll was asked to go blonde after landing the lead part of Karen Page on Netflix's
flagship Marvel series Daredevil, a role which she has since reprised in The Defenders and
The Punisher.
Woll is also expanding her profile on the big screen, signing on to appear opposite
Logan Miller in the psychological thriller The Maze and opposite Martin Starr in the
indie Silver Lake.
Anna Camp
Outside of True Blood, Anna Camp has done very well for herself, appearing in TV shows
like Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Ground Floor, Good Girls Revolt, and Resident Advisors,
along with reprisals of her Pitch Perfect character in Pitch Perfect 2 and the upcoming
Pitch Perfect 3.
Camp has also made further outings into film, appearing in Brave New Jersey, Café Society,
and Caught.
Carrie Preston
True Blood's Carrie Preston is an Emmy winner, although it's not for her beloved role as
Arlene.
The win came for her guest starring role on The Good Wife, which she reprised in 2017
on the CBS All Access spin-off The Good Fight.
Preston, who has been married to Lost star Michael Emerson since 1998, has had a long
career in TV and film, with starring roles in shows like Person of Interest and Crowded.
Most recently, the actress landed the role of an ex-con in the TNT summer breakout Claws,
which is set to get a second season in 2018.

BREAKING! George Soros Promises 'NATIONWIDE RIOTS' If Trump Does It This Week! THIS IS HUGE! - Duration: 6:53.
BREAKING!
Soros Promises 'NATIONWIDE RIOTS' If Trump Does It This Week!
THIS IS HUGE!
Ever since Trump defeated Satanic Democrat Hillary Clinton in the election, the left
has been doing all they can to bring him down.
Democrats want the government to control our lives, and they want to take our hard-earned
money and give it to their constituents in return for their loyalty at the ballot box.
This is how they stay in power year after year.
So when Trump came along and wanted less government control, and for us to keep more of what we
earned, the Dems were having none of it.
Trump is systematically destroying a corrupted system that Democrats love, so it's no surprise
they are fighting back tooth & nail.
They are fighting back by concocting stories about collusion with Russia to undermine President
Trump by casting doubt on his legitimacy.
It has been almost a year since the investigations into collusion began, and to date, there is
absolutely ZERO evidence that any took place.
Like Jeff on Facebook
At the head of the investigation is special counsel Robert Mueller.
When Mueller was appointed to look into possible collusion on the part of the Trump campaign,
he immediately hired a team of investigators who had close ties to the Clinton crime family.
One top FBI agent who hates Trump had to be fired after it became known that he conspired
against him with others, and tainted the investigation.
Rumors are now swirling that President Trump will fire Mueller as it's become obvious
this is just a Democrat witch-hunt to take him down.
Enter head-of-the-snake, top Demoncrat socialist, George Soros.
Soros is well-known for funding anti-American organizations that send thugs & terrorists
into the streets to wreak havoc on our lives.
One such group is MoveOn.org.
This group is now threatening nationwide unrest of the type we see with Antifa & BLM riots
if President Trump does indeed sack special counsel Mueller.
Via YourNewsWire:
"George Soros has boasted about plans to roll out nationwide riots across the U.S.
if Mueller drops his Trump Russia probe.
The Soros funded radical left group MoveOn.org has warned it "will begin hours after news
breaks of a Mueller firing," according to a post on its website:
Donald Trump is publicly considering firing special counsel Robert Mueller, the person
leading the Department of Justice investigation of possible illegal actions by Donald Trump
and members of his presidential campaign, and the efforts to conceal those activities.
This would be a constitutional crisis for our country.
It would demand an immediate and unequivocal response to show that we will not tolerate
abuse of power from Donald Trump.
Our response in the minutes and hours following a power grab will dictate what happens next,
and whether Congress—the only body with the constitutional power and obligation to
rein Trump in from his rampage—will do anything to stand up to him.
That's why we're preparing to hold emergency "Nobody is Above the Law" rallies around
the country in the event they are needed.
Intellihub.com reports: Now the snowflakes at MoveOn.org are saying that it would be
a "constitutional crisis" if Trump were to fire Mueller and vow to hold emergency
"Nobody Is Above the Law" rallies in all 50 states.
The Alt-Left group's plan is as follows:
If Mueller is fired BEFORE 2 P.M. local time —> events will begin @ 5 P.M. local time
If Mueller is fired AFTER 2 P.M. local time —> events will begin @ noon local time the
following day."
President Trump is fully within his Constitutional rights to fire Mueller.
Many Republican lawmakers believe he should do just that as it's obvious this isn't
about justice, it's about taking out Trump because butthurt libs just can't get over
the fact that he won.
Indeed, just today it is being reported that FBI agents & DOJ officials might be investigated
by the House for anti-Trump bias.
Via NewsWeek:
"Top officials at the FBI and the U.S. Justice Department might be subpoenaed as part of
a House investigation into alleged agency bias against President Donald Trump.
A Republican on the House Judiciary Committee said Saturday that the panel's chairman,
Representative Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), has vowed to subpoena several leading officials
as Trump and some GOP Congress members stoke speculation that intelligence and law enforcement
agencies are perpetuating partisan opposition against the Trump administration.
Republicans are apparently focused on deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe; FBI lawyer Lisa
Page; FBI counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok, who once worked on Special Counsel
Robert Mueller's team investigating the Trump campaign; and former associate deputy
attorney general Bruce Ohr and his wife Nellie, who were both tied to the infamous dossier
alleging collusion between Trump and the Russian government.
Speaking about the probe on Fox News, Representative Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) said he believes there
has been a full-blown campaign within Washington to derail Trump's presidency, which supposedly
including federal agencies.
"President Trump won in spite of the Republican establishment being against him, the Democrats
being against him, the elite media being against him and the FBI and Justice Department being
against him," Jordan said.
Jordan did not say when the subpoenas might come, and Goodlatte's office has not confirmed
the plans.
Jordan has been an outspoken critic of Mueller's investigation into the Trump campaign's
suspected Kremlin ties and has even called for a second special counsel to look into
Mueller's team for supposed bias.
Trump has long claimed that Mueller's probe and the congressional investigations into
Russian election interference are a partisan "witch hunt" aimed at toppling his presidency.
But the attacks have escalated in recent weeks as several developments have invited new scrutiny
of the people probing Trump.
Media reports revealed that Strzok was taken off Mueller's team over the summer after
Mueller learned of texts Strzok sent to Page during the 2016 campaign criticizing Trump
and his campaign.
Meanwhile, Fox News revealed Bruce Ohr was demoted over meetings he held last year with
Christopher Steele, the British spy who compiled the Trump dossier, and Glenn Simpson, founder
of the company that produced it, Fusion GPS.
Nellie Ohr reportedly worked for Fusion GPS during the campaign."
Florida Republican House member, Matt Gaetz who represents the 1st District wants Mueller
fired immediately.
If Soros & his minions want to riot in the streets in an attempt to take down President
Trump, we'll be out there making sure it doesn't happen.
What do you think about this?
Please share this news if you think Soros should be locked up for Treason!

Jose Mourinho reveals why he didn't celebrate Romelu Lukaku's goal - Duration: 1:42.
Jose Mourinho reveals why he didn't celebrate Romelu Lukaku's goal
The former Chelsea forward headed home a sumptuous cross from Marcus Rashford in the first half to set United on their way, with Jesse Lingard adding a second shortly after in a 2-1 win.
Lukaku's lack of celebration against his former club was criticised by United legend Gary Neville, with the striker pulling a similar stunt when netting against Bournemouth in midweek.
But Mourinho – who also barely reacted when the Belgian found the net – defended his front man and believes he was just showing respect to his former club.
And the Portuguese explained why he chose not to celebrate the goal either.
'I didn't celebrate too,' he said after the match.
'Nobody was happier than me.
'Fifteen years ago I look at myself celebrating goals.
With maturity you go into levels that you control your emotions better.
'Romelu was a happy kid at West Brom – maybe at the back of the mind it was his love for the club.'.

Squid Girl DVD Extra: Hisako Kanemoto Interview - Duration: 1:34.
Interview with Hisako Kanemoto Voice of Squid Girl
Question 1 What do you like about Squid Girl?
Squid Girl is an "invader" and showed up thinking of humanity as her enemy,
but she's like an innocent little kid and gets attached to people easily,
so what I like the most about her is how she's actually a really good girl.
Question 2 How are you and Squid Girl similar?
Squid Girl is like a kid how she keeps changing what she's interested in,
so that sort of trait, getting bored with things quickly,
and being extremely focused on the things she likes,
those are the parts where I think I'm really similar to Squid Girl.
Question 3: Are you aware of the squid hat craze sweeping the 'net?
Actually no, l wasn't...
It's amazing...
Something that the viewers thought up themselves, you know?
Really neat...
I got to wear a hat made for me for cosplay,
and I hope everyone else wears one!
Question 4 Do you like shrimp?
Yes, I've always liked shrimp.
I like sashimi, too, so I enjoy squid, shrimp...
I've been eating them raw recently a lot.
Since I've started playing Squid Girl,
I've found myself going back to the word "shrimp" a lot.
