Technically there are two iris muscles. The pupillary sphincter runs in a circle along the central portion of the iris (around the pupil) and shrinks the pupil when it contracts. There's also the iris dilator muscle, which runs radially from the pupil to the outer rim of the iris like spokes on a wheel and opens the pupil when it contracts.

well, as the imperial ton predates the metric ton, and is only a couple of kilos more than a metric ton, presumably we got to the idea of a "metric ton" by rounding the from the imperial ton's 1016Kg to 1000Kg, to make it easier to use with the metric system. If we didn't round the ton, we wouldn't have three different "ton"s, we'd just have tons and megagrams, which would be different units of measurements, instead of megagrams and metric tons being equivalent units.@@mikebeagley

@@bow-tiedengineer4453 Yeah, I looked up the 'tonne' thing before my post just to check, and didn't find a reason for when to use this spelling over that spelling, and was hoping that there would be a reply that would confirm it one way or the other. Suffice to say, I saw both spellings were acceptable - although my memory was such that the tonne spelling is basically an implied 'metric' - writing tonne means you should read it as 'metric ton'. I guess I'm still ultimately in doubt of one or the other, though leaning toward your explanation.

As someone who has chronic gastroparisis (my guts decide to strike and won't move) and had to do LOTS of research through pubmed, I can promise you that you will know if you do. Bur for real, that stuff doesn't do anything, and if you're really that concerned with poop getting stuff in your intestines, drink lots of water and eat foods high in fiber. That's lubrication and wall scrubbers. So if you have colon polyps, you'll want to avoid nonsoluble fiber and stick with things that have soluble fiber since that can dissolve, but it makes kind of a gel. That adds some mass, but also lubrication.

They gave her at least two enemas as well as laxatives. The doctor still had to reach into her colon and extract a huge lump of the stuff. She had vomited some of it too after the enemas. She didn't die from any of that but died later from not taking her heart medication, falling and breaking her hip at 90 yrs old and not fit to undergo surgery to repair it. As soon as she was put into hospice, she died. She was a stubborn woman and refused to listen to anything or anybody who tried to care for her.

When I developed total colonic inertia, I went 21 days (Dec 1 2007-Dec 21 2007) without pooping. I finally got enough vacation time to stay home long enough to use a laxative, I felt very similar to what I felt like after giving birth. I lost almost 15 pounds over the week it took to empty out, but it wasn't all poop, my body was pretty swollen by that point and my bracelets fit looser as I emptied out. It took more than a dozen gastroenterontologists almost 15 years to diagnose me and a couple of years ago they finally evicted my colon and gave me an ileostomy. Unfortunately, the damage from being underweight from not being able to move food through my gi tract took it's toll on my body and it could have been prevented if a single GI had listened when I told them my colon wasn't functioning properly. It is kind of funny how this video popped up on the day I change out my ilesostomy pouch. Also (I keep editing as the video progresses), what comes out of my small intestine definitely smells and looks like poop.

@@Ventuswill i am so sorry to hear that. Constipation and gut issues is really becoming so common in developed nations. In the developing world where they tend to eat more plants and less processed foods, the bowel motions are larger and more frequent. The taboo about talking about POO is to our detriment. I have students who are shocked to learn that a healthy bowel movement ought to happen twice a day and that for some people who eat a diet rich in plants, 3 times a day is not uncommon. These are decent sized poos too, not pebbles!
Incredible, this is the kind of science content that I subscribed for.
Smack dab at 4 gallons - - how beautiful. No longer can one deny the superiority of the Imperial System and an Intelligent Designer. 'Murica!
Considering the implication of the statement, I think it's worth considering the entire GI tract to be in play. If you take it literally instead of figuratively that poop is being ejected from one's mouth, it follows that everything below is full.

I propose that poop can be defined akin to magma and lava. Poop is that which has been pooped. Ergo you cannot be full of poop, unless of course you actually eat poop.

If someone is sick (like I was about a month ago) I don't think where it is in the digestion system necessarily determines whether it's poop or not, because by the end my digestive system was practically empty and what came out of both ends looked and smelled practically identical Though the clarification that the person must be healthy definitely does fix that issue

When I was in college some 35 years ago, everyone in one of my classes got into a discussion about the quantity referenced in one of the popular measurements of the day, a "buttload." Someone mentioned that there was a "buttload" of something, and someone else asked, "How much is in a buttload, exactly?" We spent the better part of an hour discussing this. Sadly, I do not remember the answer at which we arrived. I remember there was some talk of the total capacity of a toilet bowl, but we determined that a toilet bowl is, by design, larger than a "buttload." That’s all my brain seems to have retained of the discussion. Note that this wasn’t a biology class. Nor was it a math class or a philosophy class. It was a TV production class. We were working on the three-camera sitcom-style production portion of the semester and we were painting flats that we’d be using for someone’s sitcom project. Autistic brain holds onto weirdly specific details…
When I was little a friend told me that his aunt had a condition where literal poop would come out of her mouth. I always thought he was lying. TIL that maybe he wasn't.
This showed up in my notifications right as I needed to go to the toilet.
Keep up the good work !
It's official. 2024 Forrest is 2014 Hank Green. Obsessed by silly questions, forever recognizing the nuance that nature demands.
The Green-Brown transition while calculating Crapacity was a stroke of genius. Well played, sir.
Forrest is smart AND funny. Thank you for his illuminating journey through our GI system.
Never stop learning! Ever... Or the dark ones will take over... 0_o
I love this kind of videos, first bread now poop I don't even know what the next is gonna be but I can't wait to see
Thank you . I didn't realize I needed this , but I did !
I love everything about this video! 😅 Forrest asking and answering the real important questions.
I'm proud of you for not making a single political joke. That must've been tempting. :)

I don't know, but XKCD once answered what would happen if you put together a mole of moles.
As someone who spent 2 years with an ileostomy bag, I can confirm what Forrest said about the stuff coming out of your small intestine looking like poop but liquid is correct. Hence the pouch for drainage.
I am no longer able to say " I don't know sh*t"
Did you just define a crap load? I think you just defined a crap load.
I just love your enthusiasm! Organic life forms are indeed fascinating..
Another Excellent Video, tyvm!
OMG Forrest, I am destined to never forget this video. Thx a lot. 😛
I’ve been eagerly awaiting another scientific video, wonderfully made!!
Had an A&P test about the digestive system a week and a half ago. This woulda been nice then
This was very insightful. I especially appreciated the philosophical musings on the true nature of crap. I now find myself left with a single question: just how full of hot air can a person be? 🤔
This was a fascinating video to watch on the toilet.
I love the Forrest system: random thought->defining the question->science deep dive->completely logical and irrelevant answer. 😊
That was truly fascinating. I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned much I didn't know. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Best lunch entertainment I've had in a while, thank you!
Diarrhea isn't poop, it's hell and it's boiling in me.
We absolutely need more videos like this.
Thanks, Forrest, for answering this age-old question, & showing your work! ✌🏼
thank you so much for being an absolute scientific gem.
I forgot how much I really like your videos. I’m happy I rediscovered this channel
Leave it to Forrest to take an everyday phrase and break it down scientifically. Well done 😆
OMG!!! This might be my all-time favorite, KZread video. And that might be true if this video were just the introduction. Absolutely brilliant and hysterical!!! Kudos!
Have just had a very stressful day… and this video has brightened it so much! 😂 informative and entertaining!
