The "I love you" to Lexi - they were on again off again but clearly incredibly in love with each other. Her death was actually soulcrushing for anyone who was a fan and followed Greys Anatomy.
When I was in high school and had barely heard of Grey's Anatomy, I saw a short clip of Lexi's plane scene on YT and that got me into watching the show. I was so amazingly baffled by her acting and simultaneously devastated by that scene 😢👏🏽
I’m surprised he didn’t show the shoe problem. Christina wasn’t kidding when she said she has PTSD. She couldn’t think straight or anything; her mind just went shoe focus on the missing shoe, focus on what you can control which happens to be your shoe.
When he reacts it makes me wonder if someone already edited the episodes down so he had to watch less. They completely skipped Arizonas leg and I think Mark died the next season...
Uhhhhhhhh, Christina put her shoulder back in, and Arizona shoved the bone back in, and splinted. Not recommended in regular situations, but acceptable in this one.
They weren't thinking of long term solutions, just survival and trauma focused options. Would it be suggested to do half that stuff when medical attention is available, absolutely not, don't even move unless staying still gives a worse option like a fire or flooding. But things they did, I've seen similar in the desert for soldiers. It's not about getting it fixed, just everyone surviving and getting home
He didn't gaslight her though, he had been in love with her for a long time (and the only reason why they weren't together anymore was the age difference and how they were at very different points in their lives)
This is an interesting thing to say. How many times are suicidal people gaslit to stay alive? Doctors gaslight people to stay alive all the time. Especially paramedics.
@@Neodynium.the_permanent_magnet It would still be a couple hundred pounds... that metal section is probably close to 600 on the low side (I am beyond awful at estimating weights) as its aluminum and a decent chunk of it, had I to guess... which counts for little to nothing :c
OMG, I actually just had a similar experience to Dr. Mike's plane emergency. I was flying back home and one of the FA's got on the intercom and said that there was a medical emergency onboard and asked if there were any doctors or nurses. Having watched so many Dr. Mike videos, I knew exactly what to do, so I put my headphones back on and stayed out of the way.
I love how multiple "doctor reacts" channels watch Grey's anatomy and are like "this is garbage" but rumen watch Scrubs and are like "This is strangely accurate for a comedy"
I love how shock is literally "Nuh-uh, no, no, you know that life-saving skill you learned? Forget them, we don't need them. Go on auto-pilot, boo. You'll be fine, I promise."
I think it’s because the animal in us is just faster at reacting in simple ways. So in situations of major distress in the wild, thinking doesn’t help. With all of our new knowledge gained over the last few centuries thinking really would help in situations of major distress but evolution would have to catch up with culture which probably won’t happen
One of the things they drill into you with first aid classes is to never let a shock victim drink. When I went into anaphylactic shock, I drank almost half a liter of water. *While telling the friends that alerted the ambulance that you don't let people in shock drink.* The rational part of me knew exactly what not to do. The shock was just like "you're parched, you'll die of thirst, keep that water coming."
@@rvdb7363 Shock: "You need that water. I don't care that you know you shouldn't drink that water. You're thirsty and so god help me either you drink that water or I'm making you."
even better, in shock your body is basically forgetting how to pump blood and spread oxygen properly. technical skills like a medical degree are way out the window at that point.
Thank you for touching on Marks episode of terminal lucidity. I’m a hospice nurse and I’ve seen it first hand. It’s an amazing phenomenon. Would love to see you cover more hospice/palliative topics. It’s still so misunderstood, even by medical professionals!
It’s so stunning, my mom was a COPD patient with pneumonia, she was very bad until one day she woke up and called me. We talked for almost two hours, about my kids, family, work, everything. She was perfect and not out-of-breath like usual. She died the next day.
As a paediatric cardiologist: it is not impossible to tell pericardial effusion and tamponade without ultrasound. The heart tones will be very quiet, the pulsquality will be different and the percussion is different. It is, however, an almost lost skill because it is so much harder and less reliable than ultrasound. I think it fits Christina s character that she would be able to clinically diagnose pericardial tanponade with some ("75%") confidence.
I will say, I don’t know if I ever cried more over a character death in a show than when Lexi died. It really got to me as someone who is an older sister with a younger sister and I just couldn’t help putting myself in Meredith’s shoes and how AWFUL that was. Like I was BALLING
The worst part for me was when Christina said the wolves were fighting over Lexi's body after she passed. Making her leave the show was sad enough. That just added insult to the injury. Thanks for that horrifying mental picture Greys Anatomy.
@@JemJam2976 The Valentine's Day ep where Carter & Lucy get stabbed and Lucy ends up dying....man I was a WRECK for a week after that. Speaks volumes of the production and acting talent.
One famous case of "the surge" was Natasha Richardson, who experienced a few hours of seeming recovery from her brain injury in a skiing accident, before she suddenly got much worse and died.
There was that woman who was basically just a head and a chest during 9/11 who kept saying to the first responder that triaged her with a black tag(dead) who was fully aware of what that meant and kept saying "I'm not dead".
My grandma has Alzheimer and sclerosis, didn't walk at all for a long time. Like, a month before she died she was walking with a cane, recognizing everybody. We just knew, but we enjoyed those last moments ❤
They shoulda called House, he'd have super-diagnosed everything, and they would all be alive. Also, I bet he knows what a fulcrum and lever are, so they could have moved that airplane wing.
@gowon_supremacy I just rewatched Greys, and they were back together for a very short time before the plane crash. That's why Mark said I Love You, he hadn't said it back to her yet
@@Julia_beelllthey were not back together before the plane crash. Lexie confessed that she still loved him and he did not have a chance to respond but he was still in a relationship with the eye surgeon at the time of the crash.
They weren’t lol. Mark was dating another woman, who appears in the next ep. When Lexie confessed to him outside the hospital, he didn’t respond until this ep.
@@gowon_supremacybut it was realistic! Their pattern of WHY they broke up, but they NEVER stopped loving each other. Lexie had her long confession speech that she was still in love with him right before this. He said he was still with the other girl because he didn’t want to cheat, but he absolutely still loved her. What he said to her while she was dying was absolutely true. Had they lived they absolutely would have gotten back together. They never left each other’s hearts. They are meant to be.
So the Mark and Lexie; The actor who played Lexie was leaving the show, and the actor who played Mark knew the type of show it was so he made them write him off the show, to keep Mark and Lexie together because to him they were meant to be together. Knowing that im able to watch this episode over and over, just because of Christina's shoe trauma. Thats my favorite part 😂🫶🏻
The doctor(?) at the end saying "yeah he's exhibiting terminal lucidity" and literally doing nothing to follow up on it feels like genuine malpractice. Like, if he actively tells his colleagues he believes the man is dying and merely experiencing this moment of lucidity before it happens, and does NOTHING to investigate, and then the man dies, that looks...heartless. It's like the doctor decided this guy was going to die but didn't care to check or find out why.
did they really not address his diagnosis? i would assume if the doctor is concluding it's terminal lucidity, they've already determined his issue is terminal. did the pericardial effusion cause irreparable damage to his heart? i can understand not doing anything if they know he's terminal but how do they know he's terminal?
My father worked for Comair and was on an NTSB go team, meaning he was on call 24/7 for any plane crashes. He saw some gruesome stuff let me tell you. At one crash site he saw entrails in the trees and fingers sticking up out of the snow. One of the pilots was an actual skin suit of pulverized meat. Had Dr. Shepherd fell out of that plane like he did, he would most likely be human pancake batter across the ground. Commercial planes travel just under the speed of sound, around 450-520 knots.
Not to mention, if he really was "sucked out of the plane", that would imply a sudden decompression, which means an altitude of above 10000 ft. Forget surviving, they would be lucky to find enough of him to change the "missing" tag to "deceased".
Yikes. Did he work the Comair 191 crash in Kentucky? My dream job (if I had the skill) would be an NTSB investigator, but I'm unsure how I would handle seeing human bodies that hit the ground at 300 mph.
what I do like in the episode and makes me think dr mike only watched clips is in this episode during the crazy procedures in the woods, they show it being done in a hospital with the normal equipment like an ultrasound and they go back and forth
Its so interesting to see how Dr Mike shouts, bangs on the table and is engaged , so into whats happening in the scenes. Very passionate about what he does 👏👏😅
My mom is a nurse and for whatever reason, she loves this show. Whenever I walk by and see how every scene is SO VERY DRAMATIC it just looks ridiculous.. I’m like, whyyyyyyy would you want to watch this anxiety fest??
literally same, i was already emotional nearly every episode.. and this one just did me in. i get attached to characters and they just took so many away that didn’t deserve it.. 😭 i still haven’t tried to watch it again
As an aircraft mechanic, if there was no engine or APU in that tail. Considering it's ripped I'm half, it have come off quite easily. Planes are built to be as light as possible. I'm not sure what aircraft it was but I dont think she'd have crush injuries from it at all.
Oh, I remember this episode. I think I’ve watched every episode of Grey’s Anatomy so far. And honestly some of the episodes had situation’s that actually had me questioning why do it that way you’re not supposed to do it that way.
Thank you, thank you so much for blurring the bad parts… I am usually not scared of blood or gruesome parts, but god, I had to look away when the guy with his hand in the plane part was on scene… thought I was gonna pass out
CAUSE HE's an actual doctor😂 But wouldn't that be hilarious. An internist just screaming at rhe surgeons: "Where are the chest compressions?? What are you doing? Stop the kissing we're in a hospital" ahahahhaa
Dr Mike getting so heated is my favorite part every time 😂 I don’t watch these types of shows but it almost makes me want to for this kind of commentary 😂
Dr. Mike you need to teach RU-vid classes on all these medical terms and such because I would totally join. I'm not thinking of going to medical school or continuing my education, but I enjoy learning all these things from your videos.
As a Family Medicine Doctor, as well, I’m cracking up watching your reaction. I have stuck with Grey’s because I’ve watched it for so long, but my husband can always tell I’m watching it (or any medical school), because I start yelling at the TV.
I can picture doctor Mike watching a movie and a med scene and then doing something wrong I can picture Dr Mike yelling at the tv saying your doing it wrong lol
I have legit watched all the seasons several times whilst I’ve been bed bound but you made me literally laugh out loud when you said about Derick falling from the sky when his hand was through the Plane🤣🤣
Oh my god I’ve been WAITING for this. This episode messed me up for life. Imagine waiting for the next season to come out to find out what happened to them!
Doctor Mike reacting to these medical shows are my favorite! I can’t wait for more❤ “He couldn’t figure out how to use the flair gun? He’s a surgeon!” 😂
I think I’ve commented this on another of your/his videos, but a better plane-centered ep of Grey’s for Dr. Mike to focus on with his plane experience would probably be 13x20 “In the Air Tonight” (and relatedly, 3x18 “Airborne” of House).
Seattle Grace Hospital is that hospital that you don’t want to go to. You’re having a heart attack and with your last conscious breath you say to the EMTs “Not Seattle Grace. They gonna kill me.”
0:03 there’s actually an episode similar to your situation! it’s called in the air tonight; season 13 episode 20. there’s an in-air emergency and meredith as well as a new face to the show help save the life of a passenger in need. very interesting, would like to see your input!!!
I recently watched "Society of the Snow" based on the tragic accident on Los Andes, and god, I would really appreciate to hear a doctor talk and explain all the things the bodies of those kids went through.
Hey Dr. Mike, you should react to the dead pool movies and talk about the different medical themes in them, which they have a lot, any way keep doing what you’re doing😁
