    The patient stops breathing, and the doctor decides he's dead, he didn't do any thing to try to save him he just walks away and lays down on his couch, and reads a book! I would not want to go that hospital even with a bloody nose!

    He was probably going to die anyway, they don’t just walk away for nothing.

    The doctor’s dream mentions getting seat belts, which were optional back then. The concept of air bags was unknown. ABS, what’s that? Those were very dangerous times.

    Air bags would be useless if the car lacked a strong passenger cabin as well as reinforced doors, non protuding or sharp interior surfaces and strong roof pillars, which by 1958 were an issue not considered. As for General Motors, the "X" frames featured in their sedan lineup for 1958 were one of their worst ideas: A vehicle constructed with a backbone chassis and whose body was not properly reinforced to withstand a side crash.

    The moral of the video was the same as what the dean said in Animal House: "Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life".

    Accidents don't *just happen*. It takes one careless move for something tragic to happen. Don't try running downstairs. Never drive faster than the car's ability to safely navigate a turn, or your ability to safely handle the car. It's just common sense.

    Wow, 1958. The science was spot on. I wonder how we as a people have not progressed since that time and in doing so, we've not ceased to exsist . We are the wiser but somehow more stupid than ever, this is including myself. I can only guess we expect the medical doctors to save us after the fact. I can only marvel at how far the knowledge has come and we still take no heed to the warnings. We humans are so very feable! If I were a creator or an alien I could only pitty us. May be this is the fact.

    I'd much rather be in an ambulance from 2018 than one from 1958.... Yes, I remember them.. My grandad was a bar tender who sampled his own wares. He had buddies with an ambulance service who figured it was better to bring him home in the front seat than take him to the ER in the back.

    The nurse acts like a wife. In the 70s, I was required to make coffee. We had to pay for it. And they were doctors! All shrinks.

    That movie title is amazing. Tell it like it is! Is there some treasure I don't know that has been suppressed from me, whether it be by my own arrogance or something else?

    As stupid as it may sound, back then (in the 1950s) people _had_ to be vigilant at driving or they'd be dead in two seconds in a lot of cases. And it's not such a thought that's come to mind much but, imagine you being a surgeon and then all of a sudden a patient dies on you. How would you feel? Also, Am I not hearing or is this particular film starting some false suppositions or something else? I believe every time an accident happens it's actually due to _not_ thinking even if it appears that thinking is there, not due to a type of thinking. So what's happening and that is not happening?

    How unsanitary of that doctor at 2:23 putting down his mask while still in the operating room! Didn't they know proper procedures to prevent infection back in 1958?
