Most Painful Pioneering Deaths Ever

Описание: Science is a noble pursuit of knowledge... unless you're the one tasting the cyanide. In the name of progress, some of history's most brilliant minds decided to skip the lab rats and go straight to the main event: themselves. These are the stories of the most painful pioneering deaths ever, where the price of a breakthrough was an agonizing, and often spectacularly idiotic, demise.


Join us as we explore the fine line between genius and insanity, where the scientific method involved a whole lot of pioneering suffering.


In this video, we uncover:


Carl Scheele: The rockstar chemist who thought the best way to identify poisons was with his own taste buds. Spoiler: it wasn't.


Daniel Alcides Carrión: The medical student who mainlined a stranger's infected goo to prove a theory, and meticulously documented his own agonizing death. For science, of course.


Jesse Lazear: The doctor who turned himself into an all-you-can-eat mosquito buffet to solve the mystery of Yellow Fever, experiencing every horrifying symptom firsthand.


Elizabeth Fleischman-Aschheim: The X-ray pioneer who bathed in "magic rays" to calibrate her equipment before anyone knew those rays were slowly burning her away from the inside.


Alexander Bogdanov: The revolutionary who tried to achieve eternal youth by injecting himself with student blood, only to discover he'd found a high-speed delivery service for fatal diseases.
