Being a Steamboat operator on the Mississippi River in the middle of the 19th century. Operating, and being a passenger on a Steamboat in the 1850's, on the Mississippi River System was quite hazardous. Groundings, sinkings, fires, boiler explosions, lack of any safety equipment, and races between competing boats were quite common. The steamboats though enabled the rapid settlement & growth in the midwest & the southeast. The explosion & fire on the Steamboat Sultana, a "Troop Ship" at the end of the Civil War, caused the death of the more passengers than the sinking of the Titanic.

It's amazing how far we've came since then. I'd love to see technology in 100 years from now.

Same.

I was an old West doctor. I remember past lives. I was a stickler for washing my hands and using carbolic acid for cleaning my instruments I had been issued as a Union surgeon in the War between the States. I did use probes for finding bullets and removing them. I did stitch up bad cuts with a needle and horse hair. I often attended births but really never did surgery for babies caught in the pelvis, it was sad to see the mother and infant die. I did have chloroform and used it. I did cut off cancerous teats but that was a big deal with poor results most often. I treated pain of old wounds with veterans with Laudenum. The catarrh called for whiskey and tobacco smoke to clear the lungs. It was a good life.

were the first couple mins of this video reference in your old west video, or is that just me

I had fever once and the only cure was more cow bell

I love this channel! ❤️ Wow! I had no idea that doctors defended their territory quite like that!

Love the video! Please make a video about the Salem Witch trials!

I would want Doc Adams from Gunsmoke, he cured everyone!

I love this channel! What about a video on medieval dentistry?

I love the intro lol hoped right into character

Great video! I love medical history, and especially its acceptance/rejection by the general public. It's also fascinating to see how some of medicine's greatest advances were accidental. Like noticing that the cleaner the hands and instuments were, the fewer patients died of secondary infections. Even Dr. Fleming sort of Forrest Gumped into penicillin, and it was the biggest game changer in history.

Fleming didn't understand the potential therapeutic uses of penicillin, which had to wait for the WWII effort with Florey, Chain, and others.

I go to a VA hospital for my healthcare, we’re not to far off.

Love hearing Placerville, CA in a video, I have family there! It’s still an extremely woodsy, isolated and old-fashioned place. And pretty close to Sutter Creek, which is where the California gold rush officially started :) which is a pretty interesting story in itself! Just a heads up though, the locals pronounce it “Plah-cerville,” not “Play-cerville.” Great video as always!

Idk if I would call the town isolated, the population is over 20,000. But woodsy it is indeed (once you’re out of town).

Marie lol I’m sorry, I live in San Francisco. A small town hours from any significant cities, where everything moves slower and looks like it was built in the 80’s, counts as “isolated” to many people, so there’s no need to nitpick. I love Placerville but Shangri-la it is not 😂

I- it's beautiful...there are no ads 🥺😍😭

Middle school teacher here! Love your videos. ❤️ I’d love to see a video about teacher expectations/requirements in the 1800s-1900s.

That's easy and summed up in one word..... indoctrination

At 00.58 seconds "for the most part medicine was a cut throat business" that is what's called an unintended pun, good job. PS; I thoroughly enjoyed the video. Thanks

Can you do a video about childbirth? I find it interesting of how it changed in the 1800's to how it is now. Or even before the 1800's

Watching this made me want to learn more about the medical schools that taught these Doctors. They believed in some strange remedies.

American medical education was put on a rigorous basis by the Flexner Report. A book, _The Great Influenza_ by John Barry, discusses the intertwining of medical education, the 1918 pandemic, and the beginnings of institutionalized medical research. Fine writing as well as informative.
