In this month’s Lightning Round video, I look up the deadliest job in the world, how much of your body you can lose and continue living, talk about bias in the media, and why depression might be a good thing.

  1. Ironically, I say in the video that I might have 2 million subscribers by the time my next lightning round video came out, and then it wound up happening before this one went out! This last month has been a bit wild, to say the least. So let me take this opportunity to welcome all the new people and say thanks to the OG viewers as it also marks roughly 10 years that I've been doing this channel on a regular basis. Thanks a million (or two!)

  2. The Landry room in my college dorm has signs everywhere about “make sure you rocks didn’t get caught in the machines” it’s never happened to me personally, but for them to have signs everywhere it must have happened to someone fairly regularly lol! Also your channel is amazing!! I’ve been here for about 3 years now, and your videos have an odd sort of way of making me feel better even when you talk about difficult subjects. Thank you for that, and don’t even stop wondering!

  3. In reference to body parts and what Hospitals allow to be returned to you if you wanted to keep it, as no longer being possible due to abc reasons, we can insert that in Bali Indonesia it is common to be literally 'given' your removed appendages etc or simply request them, as they are ceremonially required to be included in your cremation process after you pass away, so yes people have parts sitting around in mini Graves at home that will be included later after they pass away.

  4. just for a comment this famous guy didn't have much left .. Prince Randian from the movie Freaks (1932 film). He was brought to the United States … Randian (whose birth name is unknown) was born with no arms or legs in Demerara, British Guiana. they mever show him below the waist so I don't know what he was packing. but you don't find anybody with less than him. I llooked him up in WIKI He had a wife, known as Princess Sarah (apparently a Hindu woman, born c. 1872), he fathered 5 children, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Randian

  5. In my experience, if you ask they usually give you! People I know having had surgeries where something got removed and they asked if they could keep it and then took it home. Thing is, biohazard or not, it's yours. You'd need to properly store it if it is a biohazard for real but you could in theory take any part of you home with you. After all, who's body is it?
