He wrote this awesome book Unnatural Causes and worked on the Hungerford Massacre and 9/11. He's actually the top in Britian, the best. Its interesting he did this because hes so respected and seasoned and its insane they didn't give him the appropriate introduction, like he's just an expert when he is THEE expert.

I love how Dr Shepherd analyses these videos with such care and eye for detail. It does in a way represents the way he is used to work - “slowly and carefully” (as he described it himself in the first clip). He reconsiders so many things / details most people would just have overlooked. Additionally, he seems to be a very congenial, pleasant and sympathetic person. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

He is the leading expert. They make it seem like hes just another pathologist. Not sure why but yeah its amazing he even did this

I could watch hours of this man. So knowledgeable and intelligent, but also so likeable. I get the feeling he could be my university professor, or I could go for a beer with him, and both experiences would be equally as fascinating and enjoyable.

I always liked to think about pathology as being a bit like archeology: you have to be careful and protocol your every move, because once you shoveled through your "item", it can never be restored and everything you have not gotten, will be destroyed forever and might make your findings useless.

I really like this review of autopsy scenes - Dr. Shepherd's sense of humour really adds to the criticism! Another video interview with him would be most welcome!

Not only is Dr Shepherd an icon in the forensic pathology world, he is an amazing author. Unnatural Causes and The Seven Ages of Death are excellent, and the audiobook versions (narrated by Dr Shepherd) are really worth listening to!

This is great, this guy knows what he’s talking about and I don’t think he’s ever watched a movie

This guy got me into forensics. Starting a forensic science degree this year! I’ve read all this guys stuff. Dr. Shepherd along with Val McDermid and Prof Dame Sue Black are my forensic heroes!

I'm so glad the Mel Brooks scene made it in. It's one of my most favorite movies, and it is such a great scene. 😄

"Rather depressing fantasy." Had me rolling.

Absolutely loved this gent’s book, so nice to put a voice and face to the words and name

I feel like the Silence of the Lambs autopsy scene was meant to be noticeably unconventional and ill-equipped. It has been decades since I read the book (was it in the book?) and a few years since I watched the movie but wasn’t there a point made that the FBI were compromising by doing an impromptu check for forensic evidence at a funeral home in a small town near where the body had been found to get as much evidence as possible quickly (because by this point, they have to speed things up to avoid Gumb’s next victim being murdered). They had to be helicoptered in hastily and there was still a funeral taking place when they arrived (which leads Starling to have a flashback about her fathers funeral). I always figured this was why there was no abundance of surgical aprons and PPE and procedure wasn’t to the letter, because it was a small funeral home outside of a town where most local deaths probably weren’t murder and they’d be ill equipped for an investigation or proper autopsy. Plus her body would be decaying pretty fast and there’d be no time to transport her remains to a larger town for intense autopsy while they’re not sure if they have hours or days to save Catherine’s life - I always assumed that scene wasn’t the actual autopsy but the check for any evidence as they had to quickly get her out of the elements where she was found and that funeral home was the only near location with adequate facilities. Was this explained in the book? I cannot remember (I can remember weird things like Hannibal having an extra finger, and the guy pooping in front of Clarice but not that 😂).

@chris1275cc

2 жыл бұрын

Yes, it is better explained in the novel (re read it recently for about the 100th time LOL) but it is all there, pretty much in the movie too, including the fact Starling does not perform the autopsy and a pathologist is waiting in the wings to both do that and supervise the exam, also that Starling is a qualified forensics fellow and has assisted in autopsies before. Bill has killed at least 6 at this point and with all the evidence a conviction is a given, because the body got snagged in a fishing line it was "fresher" than the others when it was found and they took the opportunity and the risk that they would lose one conviction to try and get one step a head of Bill.

Absolutely love Shepherd, his books are so absorbing

I admire this man so much. Autopsy Last Hours is one of my fav shows.

That was awesome. Thank You

Fantastic video! After reading Dr Shepherd's books it was so lovely to see him on this 😊

I just love watching and listening to Dr Richard Shepherd. Always so interesting and it really teaches us a lot about the human body. Fantastic stuff.... thanks for sharing all your knowledge..... and your humour in this particular video. ❤

I absolutely love this pathologist and would love to see him again, he's funny, had me cracking up..

I'm reading his book now and you can tell its him! Really enjoying it 👍

If you ever do a follow up for this episode, you should react to Silent Witness (which is a British TV series about a team of forensic pathologists)!

Here after reading 'Unnatural causes'! This is awesome, Penguin Books UK

I really appreciate Dr. Shepherd's review of movie autopsy scenes.

I've read Mr. Shepherd's book "Unnatural causes" translated into Russian. It is great! Recommend to everyone!

I've just ordered his first book - I like the sound of this guy and if he writes as well as he speaks here, I could be in for a good read.

THIS WAS REALLY INTERESTING!

"off piste" that's a fencing reference I didn't expect!

Loved this, he is informative and charming!

I have a background in construction, and have done a lot of work in hospitals - including the morgues therein. I was not surprised by the safety precautions we were required to obey. I was, however, mildly surprised by the standards of ethics and behavior expected of us. Examples: No food or drink, not even water. No joking, horseplay, or profanity. No speculation of the number of bodies in the room at any given time. No speculation of the cause of death of anyone in the room. No evidence of our presence was to be left after our work was completed - at least none detectable to a casual observer. Obviously, we were not allowed in the room if a pathology staff were working. We were also expected to leave if mortuary staff arrived in order to transport a body from the hospital to a funeral home. I've got no idea whether these conditions were proper laws on the books, or they were simply hospital policy. But, I did find them interesting. I found working in that environment to be fascinating in a morbid sort of way.

A pleasure to see and hear a British professional using the correct pronunciations.

That was fun. I would like to get that book. I am not a pathologist, I am not even involved in the field of forensics or medicine at a professional level, but am a keen amateur. I noticed the things done wrong that Dr Shepherd found. One very good autopsy I saw and millions of others have seen as well was a very brief one done in the film Contagion, where the pathologist did a Y incision and peeled forward the scalp of the deceased Gwyneth Paltrow. I loved CSI Las Vegas, especially, Gill Grissom in the first and second series, very ethical but many mistakes were made in those episodes, too. Very entertaining, though, with all the sleuthing the forensic team did. Thanks for this, so much fun and great to hear a real pathologist giving his views.

You have lovely eyes sir xxxxx

I'm not sure how it is done elsewhere, but in the states the sutures from an autopsy are typically pretty loose and messy because of the fact that the morticians of the funeral home taking care of the body afterward will just have to remove the sutures to complete the embalming process. They would then redo the sutures when the embalming is complete, and these sutures are typically tighter and look much nicer. So the scene from Seven with the sutures on the body still in the morgue is pretty accurate based on what I have seen.
