Worst Football Injuries EVER - Doctor Explains Marcus Lattimore Knee Dislocation

[@BrianSuttererMD]

What other historical injuries should I take a look at?

You're awesome my guy!

[@Dfsnprops]

Definitely Bo Jackson

[@speedinturtle00]

Kevin Ware

[@ElGeneralDelAire]

Napoleon KaUfman vs 49ers

[@ElGeneralDelAire]

Pothro WR from Alabama

[@matthewstygles]

I attended this game and was on the field at the time of injury... I've never heard a stadium so quiet! Marcus was a Heisman candidate and should have played a LONG time on Sundays, had it not been for this tragic play. I can't express how much he meant to that team.

[@BishjamIC]

I remember watching this play live on TV. What a horrific injury.

[@IntoTheSkyy]

[@JNMFNFnMNH]

Was such a good player and had such crazy potential. Really a shame. Hope he's doing alright somewhere

[@jacobs.2115]

I still remember watching this play live, I hate it so much for him because of how great he was at football but more over how great of a person he is.

[@clifton4566]

Our high schools were bitter rivals, but Marcus was one of those exceptional people that everyone pulled for. His ability was next level, and he's a solid person. That injury broke a lot of hearts.

[@loganpetznick1767]

Could you please look over the Lions CB neck injury against the Patriots that happened this weekend? (Week 5)

[@BrianSuttererMD]

That was so strange. I’ll take another look and see if we have any new info

[@jacobsims8307]

From watching that game i have no idea which DB injury you're talking about bc so many happened, hate to see that for those guys.

[@brendencrowe8407]

lmao i love the joke but he’s talking about Saivion Smith

[@Stand_with_Israel]

He didn’t play again

[@Letterman0412]

@@dakotagordon1502 He was on the 49ers for a bit but don’t think he even saw preseason time. This injury ended his career.

[@sirsenior1861]

Did not (really) play again. Rehabbed, taken by the 9ers and signed briefly but never played.

[@TheLsund]

Great video! Growing up in SC, this injury always resonated with me and I've always wondered about the anatomical side of it

[@idkjames]

I was at this game. Those days when SC could beat anyone. Marcus works for SC now.

[@matthewbennett5353]

Thought this was Marshon Lattimore for a second. You scared me dude

[@ZACATCS]

I, too, remember this injury. No. 24 for Tennessee tackled Lattimore below the knee, which contributed to the injury. Number 34's tackle was textbook.

[@TyrenoI]

Hey Doc! I hope you're doing well. It would be awesome to see you do the Kevin Ware injury.

[@ethanthrower8259]

Love the tips for first aiders in this video. I'm a medical student and also work as a first aider and find your videos so helpful on both fronts! :)

[@nickkennedy8130]

As a die hard Gamecock, this is something I'll never be able to erase from my memory. I remember not being able to look away, due to the shock of losing maybe the best gamecock ever, and knowing his career was over.

[@leeharrison5718]

man y’all take any excuse to say “gamecock”

[@jiwilliams4th]

A year later, Gamecock gamecock gamecock gamecock... Go COCKS!

[@timhoodp]

Been waiting on this for so long. As a USC fan this is tough to watch, he was so good

[@larryd4352]

I know what the guy is going through...my injury was very similar except my patella tendon ruptured ( have a screw holding it in place ). Also, besides the ACL, MCL & PCL tearing, most of the Meniscus was shredded, the Vastus Lateralis tore away from the bone and got infected, and the doctor's couldn't get it under control, so about 8" of the muscle had to be removed. I have lived with the injury since I was 20 years old. I had hoped to have a chance to try out for the NFL after college, but it took me close to 3 years to rehab and then lose the weight I had gained from being inactive. I am 6'6" and my playing weight was 320 lbs. as an Offensive Lineman. Hopefully this player gets over the surgery and can get on with his life! Everything changes with this type of injury.

[@michaelb1761]

During a soccer game, one of my teammates tore his ACL, MCL, and patellar tendon. This was in the mid 80's, and the surgery for a highschool athlete in the mid 80's wasn't what it is now. He still walks with a limp. On top of all of that, the ref gave him a red card for dangerous play, and we finished the game a man down and majorly pissed off at the ref.

[@joeg5414]

Happened 10 years ago

[@NNHgohabsgo]

How badly did that hurt

[@drewwatzke7430]

The worst injury I think I've ever seen would be a hockey goalie had his throat sliced by a skate and he survived, would be fascinating to hear you talk about what the medical team would do in that situation.

I was at my little league game and got a helmet to helmet broke my neck but was ok. 2 years later against the same team at the same time on the same day I tore my acl mcl and lcl.

[@brycesmith5784]

I had a play in baseball when I was younger where I was at shortstop and went up for an errant throw from the catcher. As I was catching the ball, the runner dove and his helmet went straight into my right knee and effectively spun me around before I hit the ground. The coach made me finish the game since we only had 9 players, but I could hardly walk on that. Somehow, I was only out for a week before I was able to play most of a game again. I'm convinced that if my foot was planted though, my knee would have been a goner

[@iitstre_4550]

I’m not going to lie, the injury is obviously horrific! But I think it’s just as shocking how calmly you discuss it with absolutely no forewarning. Like screen fades in, man’s legs is torn off in the same breath 😂😂

[@theonion1731]

The first time I dislocated my knee was when my gf jumped off the couch on me. Over 20 years and 5 dislocations later I finally had surgery to fix the ligaments. My knee was so unstable that all it took was to slip on a little ice for it to explode the last time. The upside is that when it's that loose it's pops back in fairly easily...

Can you do an explanation on the Kevin Ware basketball injury?

[@FierceCubs]

Here after the Chubb injury 😢

[@craighanson-rc1md]

just watching this hurts my knees while I can watch any other injury video no problem. The one exception is the two or three videos of NHL hockey players getting throats cut by ice skates. Man I love hockey played it through college but man a skate to the throat was my biggest fear. Because you can just bleed out so quick & yet sometimes not. Hockey is the only real sport left. I remember seeing Boston Bruins Greg Campbell getting hit with a slapshot on a power play but he too powered through till the power play was over & he could be replaced without risking the team. He & the bruins were sadly successful in defending the powerplay against my beloved Pittsburgh Pengiuns. And as much as I hate the bruins & anything about them I give Greg Campbell props & stand in owe of his ability to power through for the team.

[@Rs18-o1k]

What can I do to heal my popliteal oblique ligament? Because I hyperextended my knee back in September and have been unable to sprint full speed since. I didn’t know what was injured but from this video you taught me what it was.

[@Jsch23]

brian you should do an evaluation of johnny knox, he was bent in half and his career was ended, he walks with a limp and deals with pain to this day, its one of the most gruesome injuries of all time.

[@WMDistraction]

I've never seen this clip before and seeing that made my heart sink.

[@TheRealRacerX]

As a long time fan, this is without a doubt the most common GRUSOME injury IMO. I fear this injury every time I see a hyperextension. The first one I ever saw, I believe, was Napoleon McCallum of the Raiders. The saddest one was NFL rookie Robert Edwards suffering it at the Pro Bowl Beach Football game. He made it back to the NFL for a season or too, but he was going to be a star.

[@andrewyarosh1809]

Tennessee defender (# 24?) doesn’t even try to raise his arms to wrap Lattimore up. He leads with his shoulder with his head down and throws himself at Lattimore’s knee. In my view, a learned behavior intended to injure.

[@brandonf1482]

Do a video on Song Yadong’s cut from his most recent fight! That was a nasty one I’d like to see your take on it.

[@kjlahti782]

Could you do a video on maybe the worst knee injury I've ever seen? It was Raiders running back Napoleon McCallum getting injured on Monday Night Football in 1994. It's pretty gruesome and the video is hard to watch without turning away.

I think knowing how detach yourself from empathy is a must have to be in that field. That's why a lot don't make it. Having empathy in that field would ruin the avg person. Being around all that death and knowing there are people you can't really give the proper care over not having insurance. Just thinking about it is why I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be a doctor.

[@mountveggie]

Can someone explain to me (ie. non-American with no idea what the rules of American football are) whether a tackle like this is considered legal or illegal?

[@michaelb1761]

Worst looking injury I've ever seen. When I first saw it, I thought he had fractured his hip down by the knee. The way it just flopped around. The worst I saw up close was a guy in highschool who tore his ACL, MCL, and patellar tendon playing soccer.

[@payrysdoscs4903]

[@SKF358]

Dr. Sutterer, when the defender goes for the knees, the defender should be kicked out of the game. Remember the Miami RB who has an OSU player do this to his knee, running around the the right? It should be illegal.
