The scariest thing to me about the doctors is that they don't say anything to the sick. They just look at them. Then "put them to sleep."

[@earrapemusicstudios1259]

Pn oice Wrong. What the retired plague doctor sniffed and ate was most likely lavender or some other herb, because back then it was widely believed that the plague came from bad smells. They wore the beaked masks because they put said spices into them so they would breathe in good smells, which made them feel like they couldn't get the plague. Their clothes were also covered in wax because it was believed that the plague would stick to rough surfaces.

To anyone who’s wondering: the reason the mask is so long was that it would be filled with different spices that would sent and “filter” the air that would go through the mask, so that the doctor wouldn’t be infected.

[@jerichoadams1944]

Fellinux That is incorrect. The beak wasn't intended to be alongside with the costume. It played a big part with helping the Plague Docters. As they thought anyways. The beak never met to be a beak. It was used for Herbs, Flowers, and other greens to keep them healthy while inside the costume. And if you haven't known. Their costume was waxed so that no "Rotten Air" was inside their coat.

[@jerichoadams1944]

Fellinux Yes, I don't doubt you have. Yet, Plague Docters have a lot of genres they could fit into. They are also well known within the genre of Creepy Pasta. So therefore, you may have heard about people saying it was intended to be. But I am not saying that you do not agree with me, but I do suggest looking up why Plague Docters have beaks. Also, if you watch this clip once more, the main characters says he "wants to help people." In my opinion I don't think he would wear the beak if he wanted to help. Also, look at the clip once again. The point when the Plague Docter was infected with the disease he ran to his bathroom opened his mask up and received Herbs within his mask. Indicating he has Herbs in his beak. Supporting my earlier comment.

[@jerichoadams1944]

Fellinux well this has narrowed down to the shape of beaks and the tone of creepy. Yes you may be right. Actually I agree with you. The pointy masks where made like that. And rounded was also made like that. But it depends on the creator. The creator of the mask is using a different material then what other people use to create masks. I beleave this is the reason. And If I am wrong, which is a possibility, then that concludes this confusion.

[@darrenheart6183]

The Mastermind No i think the Beak was intended to part of it The Red eyes for the mask:This one's pretty simple.Doctors thought that red eyepieces would make them insusceptible to evil(Aka the deadly disease): The wooden cane:Doctors used the cane to direct family members on how and where to move infected patients and to examine them without direct contact: The Bird-Like Mask: What was with the bird's beak? Well, a common belief at the time was that the plague was being spread by birds. (We now know that rats and fleas were responsible for spreading the Black Death.) The Doctors may have thought that dressing up in a bird-like gas mask,the plague would be transferred from the patient to the garment. This beak piece was also filled with Vinegar,sweet oils,and other strong-smelling chemicals to mask the stench of death and unburied bodies.

[@jerichoadams1944]

InSaNiTy Assassin​ you are very clever. And quite smart. Where have you learned this? Yet I disagree, Though. Beaks weren't intended to be made as they are. They didn't have those chemicals in their hands like that. "Scientists" only carried those ingredients. But remember, Plague Doctors where just ordinary people who decided to help. Also some where normal doctors. No citizen would carry those ingredients, as I explained earlier. So therefore, they put their picked herbs inside a compartment with the mask. The mask started to grow to a thing. It came to the point it had to look like a beak. And yes, half of your part is correct. They had masks to hide the smell of death and the dead. But It wasn't chemicals. The people thought the disease was carried through air. This is why the plague doctor suits was waxed and they where completely covered. To resist the air from entering their suits. In this clip, it explains indirectly that plague doctors had their sticks/poles to examine their patients. Also, to keep away patients when they try to attack the doctor. This is my comeback. Thank you for reading.

I'd just like to point out a few inaccuracies: Yes, the plague doctors were hired during the black death, mid 14th century, hOWever, the iconic beak mask and costume was only invented by Charles de l'Orme, who lived in the late 16th century. He invented the costume for himself and used it first in 1619. Furthermore, the mask would have been made of leather, and it was only 6 inches long, it did not look that ridiculously huge. That is all, carry on.

It's so sad because that was what it was like back then. A plague doctor would try to heal someone and have to quarantine themselves for a certain amount of time before going back out to try cure someone else. Until one gets the disease as well and is visited by another plague doctor who must cure them instead. It sort of goes around in a circle. It teaches a good lesson about the plague and plague doctors and how they are misunderstood as ringers I death. Yes, they sort of are because if they are unable to heal someone, they put them out of their misery and try to stop the disease spreading. It is also because they were present during the black death, wore black symbolizing death and even wore raven-like masks in which ravens are symbolized with death too. A beautiful, educational yet tragic film. Well done guys!!

They are docters back then and served Europe to cure people they did not have any medical training the only things they do is add a spider or frog to consume the "bad air" and. The real cause of the plague was the fleas on rats it happened 2 time to i have known and had killed tons of people

You know the beak isn’t always pointy, it doesn’t have to be pointy, it’s sole purpose was just to store herbs.

[@ngimostv7159]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/raHHenyYdqljfsk

[@marley9800]

it was never meant to be a beak

[@realll]

The reason most beaks were pointy was because they were stitched down the middle.

[@davyjones5068]

The sole purpose of the mask is to puts a layer of herb not looks cool and pointy stupid

[@MrJustinBeiberSucks]

that mask doesn't look very realistic to the actual masks. You could have just bought a better one.

[@korwynze6288]

they should have MADE a better one, maybe thats better than buying

[@globalelite9995]

Did you live the 14th century? Not everything is true in the history, for example vikings did not really have horns on their helmets.

[@TheLostZer0]

You think back then they had plastic mold and crap, it looks realistic for the time, it resembles a bird bead

[@xXxgodHunter]

Its not that "unrealistic". Its the Middle Ages and Plague Doctor's mask is not that for cosmetic purposes but as a precaution. It contains aromatic herbs & spices that protects the so called doctor from putrid air, which (according to the miasmatic theory of disease) was the cause of the disease.

[@TheLostZer0]

+xXxgodHunter they also thought that if it looked creepy it scared away demons, so the masks were intentionally designed to be creepy

The problem is that the mask and the suit of the plague doctor was only introduced in the early 17th century!

[@theproudenglishman4461]

+Joao S About 1619 it was invented, then adopted by the Plague Physicians of England during the plague of 1665 - 6 but was used in Europe quite frequently till around the 1700 - 1710 region.

[@MegaLoonatick]

+Shauna Stevens He never said it was wrong, just added some more information lol.

No. Just NO. The "mask" was perfectly made because it housed lots of herbs to ward away the plague and the "suit" was the same concept
