Hey Mike, I learned that type A blood cannot be given to type B or O, and type B cannot be given to type A or O. Type O can be given to any blood group without causing an immune reaction. However, this blood group cannot receive any type except for type O. For blood type AB, this blood group cannot be given to any type except for type AB. But it can receive any blood group.

The very last one with witnesses being afraid to come forward. Can't blame them. They aren't well protected. Some witnesses were even murdered while under police protection.

I'm born and raised NYC and I ALWAYS have said, "if I get into a fight that almost feels live or die, BITING is 110% on the move list..." Sadly now, cuz of that biting fact, it seems like what I thought was an advantage is just a common move here. Looks like I better move to whipping people with car antennas... Wait my uncle did that in the early 60s .. And what car have friggin antennas these days?

I just realized you were wearing a rescue rangers shirt and that is the coolest thing I have seen all week

[@andeeharry]

7:34 According to recent study, some spiders are bigger yes, but not because of climate change, but because of human influence. The buildings are warmer, there is more food around, less predators, more resources, and more babies. We helped them get a little bigger, but the artic wolf spider is the biggest of the lot. Spider size varies throughout the years, and they haven't been this big for 165 million years. There is no need to worry, this always happens, we just influenced it this time.

There are so so so so so many foods with allowable amounts of insects/insect parts in them. Reading the list and allowable....um....'parts' that make it in is waaaaaaay more than unsettling. But I will eat all of it anyway. Happily.

[@frankbrodie5168]

The obvious thing to note is that many many cultures happily eat many many insects. And many insects are in fact jam packed full of nutrients and useful vitamins. As humans we probably just baulk at eating insects due to their appearance. As a kid I'd happily eat spiders for kids paying me 5p a pop in the playground. These days I'll leave the spiders alone and can happily co-exist with them in my house now I'm divorced and middle aged. Because I hate the flies waaaaay more than I dislike the spiders.

[@IrishMike22]

@@frankbrodie5168 I don't think the issue with this one is the fact there are foreign "bodies" (haha) in foods we never expected. I remember reading this as a kid in the 80's so it's no surprise to me (and though I do eat almost anything I'll leave the spiders to your childhood memories 🤢)

[@ladylove8565]

That blood transfusions is my idea of terrifying not only does it involve needles which I find deathly scary to the point of fainting if I'm not laying down getting one or even watching someone get a needle then throw in all the horrible things involved with the blood transfusions and I might just avoid the hospital all together

Did you find out how old the people doing the biting were? How many of those bites were in daycare and how many in nursing homes? Both of those are groups have an excuse. The first doesn't know better. The second group often has dementia so again they have an excuse.

[@unclej2763]

So the ever ongoing crisis of plastic pollution is definitely a big concern for our country indeed right now. I feel this is partly because recycling plants can’t clean disposable plastic containers for whatever reason, they’ve become so dirty, it’s hard to clean them. Thus, either these big industrial places have to melt down that plastic and so many containers go through the entire process once again of potentially becoming something new involving some kind of plastic in the manufacturing process. Or the smarter option of probably just trying to reuse some of these things for something else that maybe we can actually put to good use. I’m just glad at least in some parts of the US, we have reusable shopping bags to bring with us to the store when we go out to get our daily groceries.

Great video as always, however it isnt a great idea to use antiperspirant unless absolutely necessary, your body is supposed to sweat, and stopping it from doing so can have detrimental effects.

The murders today see a lot of CSI like shows that can actually help you commit the perfect crime.

[@christigmc]

I do wonder how many of those 90% solved murders from 50 years ago were actually correct. One must also factor in the better technology we have and how many people have been exonerated due to new technology. I don’t know if police procedure and mentality has changed over the last 50 years. I had a customer who is a retired police officer. He had this mentality of I caught you, you’re guilty. You don’t deserve a trial. I live in a neighborhood with a lot of police and I was a witness to a crime a few years ago. I get more of a we want the truth even if it hurts the case mentality from my experience.

[@matthewdrummond1340]

4:55 😂

[@kellyrickard3833]

One in three xxhance your killer won't be found? Pssh I wa violently s.a.ed went to my Dr. To have the bite marks treated, have the other trauma treated. He took pictures and reported. The officer that showed up laughed and said this is high school drama! Made me right out my statement on a blank piece of paper, and asked no questions. He accused me of being drunk. I don't drink, or do drugs and I was 38. There's security footage the detective could've gotten to see every word I said was true. He didn't, and he called one day to say they both came in together, and said they didn't do it. When asked if he got the security footage he laughed and said no. He took a empty cd and wrote security footage on it and sat ot in front of them. So he was sorry but there was nothing more he could do. So I guess the bite marks probably wasn't evidence enough either. Worthless! Everyone needs to save themselves! Don't count on police! I moved to a farm out of state and I now am too afraid to leave my property. So they get away free, and I'm left broken with no justice.

Aww I would love to have larger wolf spiders I just wish their lifespan would increase the magnificent creatures have a bad reputation because society deemed that spiders are bad. I would take a spider bite over a dog bite any day. It's stupid that people only view animals positivity because of sociatal programming. 99 present of spiders are harmless especially compared to dogs spiders are very clean pets while a dog will lick it's butthole then your face. Reminds me of the time I seen a guy letting a stray dog lick his face. I said that's nasty of course he started a speech claiming a dogs mouth is cleaner than a humans. I laughed and told him well that dog was over there digging dirty diapers from that trash can and had been dining on baby crap for hours needless to say when he saw the scattered diapers he turned pale and started vomiting

Have you double checked what you said aboit contaminated blood? I have to disagree, I have donated for years through differant collectors and they take 5 small vials of blood to test for all those things.They test all of them before the blood is released for use.

[@frankbrodie5168]

Again... The statistics stating that you're more likely to be struck by lightning, than be involved in an aeroplane crash, is sort of ignoring the fact that the only people who could possibly be involved in an aeroplane crash are those people who er... are on a plane. Something that being struck by lightning does not require. You're basically saying that 11 times as many people get struck by lightning, as are involved in plane crashes. When the amount of people using aircraft is stated as about 5% of people. Which is literally 1/20th the number of people with the potential to be struck by lightning. (i.e. everybody.)

[@IrishMike22]

Mike; you need to rethink that sentence about murder rates. Both %'s you gave indicate a majority of murders are solved (they are, about 55%) but you implied it was more likely to not get solved. Confusing 🤷
