[@grahamcann1761]

"Without this army of microscopic interlopers you literally wouldn't survive." Well... That's like saying, a ruptured Appendix if not treated in 24 hours is fatal. Well... About a decade ago, the week before Thanksgiving, I was in retail management and having 'gut pain'. Well, the week before Turkey day (here in the states) is kind of busy, so I tried to ignore it. But then the Tuesday before, I called into work to say I was gonna visit the Doctor, and I might be a little late. The Doctor said "appendicitis" and had me drive myself over to the local hospital where I met a surgeon and we talked about my "in and out the next day" surgery, all done through "one little hole." Next thing I knew I was waking up and my ex-wife (and still good friend) was leaning over me saying "you almost died!" I said hi, what's she doing here, and what is she talking about? I learned that it sometimes happens, and did to me, that an appendix can rupture, reseal itself, and repeat the process over and over. And thus I'd done a good job of poisoning myself. So I ended up with several days in the hospital, three holes (instead of one), and the Doctor told me he'd basically had to use antibiotics to kill everything in there, good and the bad... and for 90 days I had to eat A Lot of yogurt (I hate yogurt). So yeah I got a lot of my "microscopic interlopers" wiped out, and survived a ruptured appendix for a week. I don't recommend it. As always thank you so very much for the video.

Excellent work! KEEP IT UP MY FRIEND! Thank you for making me use my brain. We all need this

[@purpuradraco3747]

Are you sure your used your brain, that the microbes didn't use it for you? And how we laughed at George Lucas when he came up with midi-chlorians. These are not the comments you're looking for.

Thank you Very very good video.

[@hedgewitch59]

I love your delivery. 😀

Recently discovered this channel, love the videos. I feel like we would have fun conversations! xP

[@manuelgaetan]

Wow, very informative.

I particularly liked this video!! I had no idea this condition was a thing!!

Learning your mom is your aunt would probably go as well as discovering that your sister (or you) were adopted.

[@Ranxerox1911A1]

Huh. This isn’t why I’ve subscribed to your excellent channel, but this episode has shed light upon three mysteries in my life. I’ll have to do more research, but you’ve offered me the right questions to ask. Thanks for that. Before watching this episode I was all at a stand as to how to address these mysteries in my life. Now I have a baseline for further research.

One of the most interesting videos I've watched in quite a while :)

[@DavidLazarus]

Well, that was unexpected . . . and quite interesting. Thanks!

[@cr0wguitar]

This video just kept blowing mind. An instant favourite!

[@derro4650]

This happened to me!!!!! I was called a chimera. I came back as my own mother and aunt. I have relatives on ancestry that I'm not actually related to as well.

[@rjrunlikehell2366]

Thank you for the wealth of knowledge that you share with us! It’s appreciated. I watch more of your videos than almost anything else with the exception of horror movies. You’re a great host with brilliant delivery. You keep putting them out - I’ll keep watching.

[@KPark-hn8jf]

You watch MrBallen on YT buddy?!. He’s 💯 the best true storyteller, if you’re a fan of the strange, dark and mysterious delivered to you in story format… most of them freaky and scary!

[@rjrunlikehell2366]

[@johnoconnor4941]

I thought you was going to go into the micros from the jump; the chimera human thing is new to me. Very interesting.
