I was watching my own foot surgery the other day (local anesthetic) and even the surgeon's assistant had to cringe a bit at a certain spot while I was happily watching. She said most patients have to look away during these procedures but after growing up with unrestricted access to the internet and an at times unhealthy amount of curiosity I've seen it all. Should I have watched those isis beheading videos? Probably not. The production value was insane though.

i watched the video of them cutting that guy's head off too, and i'm the opposite now. in fact i'm trying to figure out how to not faint and piss myself when i get a blood draw. i fucking hate it, it's so stupid, i get tattoos and i'm fine, but if i even think about anything going past a certain depth to my insides (blood lab, surgery, injection), it triggers vasovagal syncope

Same, it's something about the precious bodily fluids

getting drunk before a shot seems to somewhat help for me, at least for injections, but that would be ill advised for surgery, since it thins the blood

Also sounds bad for a blood draw, or getting to/from the facility.

Back before TLC was trash they had a show called The Procedure where they showed a full surgical procedure, uncut and uncensored. Just a camera pointing down at the table or video from inside.

I was the only one in my family who could stomach it thanks to the internet.
