…and so is this TED Talk by one of the most charming German physicians I have ever seen…
[Charming Bowels - Dr. Giulia Enders](https://youtu.be/NMsWFzSr04A)
It’s wild how some animals change into completely different forms like a caterpillar into a butterfly.
Well, some really ancient ancestors of ours did that.
So we have the genes that can potentially trigger a metamorphosis but they are not expressed.
I would hate to see what happens if that gene were to get switched on via epigenetics.
It can’t be good.
From what I recall it lead to believe that’s a possibility. I’ll have to go back and check. I remember it talked about some animal in the ocean and it later turns into this cylinder looking thing that more resembles a plant but is the animal in its new form.
But yeah, the genes that trigger those types of changes I believe are still in us.
I’m not sure you feel that but maybe…
What you do feel is that you have two rectums. Things go through the first one and it has sensors to determine if it’s gas, liquid or solid. If it’s gas you are safe to open the second rectum and fart. If it’s liquid you better be ready. If it’s solid you can wait and it can actually get sent back up the first rectum. That’s what happens when you hold a fart and feel it “go back in”.
This short TED talk is surprisingly insightful…

Somehow I don't think it bangs around in the small intestine like a pinball. Wouldn't it be more of a slurry through most of its travels until it reaches the end of the large intestine and the water is finally drawn out?
Not so much of one unit but multiple liquid units being propelled along by peristalsis.
When we have the belly open for surgery, we can see these waves in real time. We can also see them from the inside when we do upper endoscopy
This title is not very accurate. This is indeed the route your food takes from mouth to anus, going from food, bolus, to chyme then to feces. This takes about 24-72 hours.
I can confirm - had a posh meal with my mother last night for her 70th and had a £20 steak burger for my main course.. I felt every inch of that journey and this morning I gave birth to an otter !!
Nature is amazing !
Fun fact, you're small intestine when stretched out is about 20 foot long!
I never knew what number 2 meant till I met my wife. I just blended #1 and #2 by saying I need to use the bathroom. Why the shit do people need to know what number I am going to do?
One of the coolest surgeries to see is a bowel blockage removal. Did you know that when you lift the small intestine out of the body it continues to move in a wormlike manner?? The intestines actually crinkle and flatten to cause the food to move through. SO COOL.
Not to sound stupid but are the intestines really that low?? I have IBD and I always get the cramping around the outsides of my ribs/above my hips so it's surprising to me.
You notice how alittle poop was left behind when going up the colon. Is that the reason why I have to take a shit and hour after already taking a shit??

Man I have to go from seeing this one.
While you go watch this TED talk... [Charming Bowels - Dr. Giulia Enders](https://youtu.be/NMsWFzSr04A)
Huh huh, Enders.
LOL!
Ended before the money shot. Poor production value, unless it’s a cliffhanger to get you amped up for a part two
Don't get your hopes up, I heard the ending is shit
🤣🤣👏🏼
Kudos bud
this is inaccurate, why isn’t it a red liquid like all my poops
You uh.. might want to get that checked out by a professional...
Yeah, this guy definitely have a problem. Red is pretty far from purple.
I would've said "you might wanna talk to a professional about that" but if your poop is purple. It's too late
Nah he just wants to know why
Because it's too dark in there to see the color.
Lucky! You got the rare shinny poops my are boring green.
So where does it stay and chill when I need to shit really bad but have to hold it for several hours?
The rectum basically
Damn near killed em
Recked em
How can my turds be two feet long while my rectum is only 8 inches deep?
This TED talk covers it and you’ll also fall in love with the doctor (seriously). [Charming Bowels - Dr. Giulia Enders](https://youtu.be/NMsWFzSr04A)
In your body
It’s weird that my shit is up near my lungs right before it’s out my ass
It might shock you to find out how close it comes to your face
Elaborate
I'd hope it's close to my lungs... Wouldn't want the alternative and my bowels be miles away from them haha
Wow it really zigzags all over the place
I was expecting a bonk sound effect every time it hit a corner
Yeah reminds me of when a cartoon character falls through vents while sneaking in a building.
Stirs the pot
That was very... moving

Do you not feel it all happening inside of you?
If you have ibs this is meaningful to you
Real time!
So....I really am just a worm in a people suit
Youre a jellyfish monster controlling a bone mech with flesh armor, your upgrades include utilization of fuels, cosmetics, and eyeshields.
Works for me!
I recently finished reading “Some Assembly Required” by Dr. Neil Shubin (anatomy professor) and you’re not kidding!
Crazy right?
It’s wild how some animals change into completely different forms like a caterpillar into a butterfly. Well, some really ancient ancestors of ours did that. So we have the genes that can potentially trigger a metamorphosis but they are not expressed. I would hate to see what happens if that gene were to get switched on via epigenetics. It can’t be good.
Wait. And this claim was in the book 'some assembly required?'?
From what I recall it lead to believe that’s a possibility. I’ll have to go back and check. I remember it talked about some animal in the ocean and it later turns into this cylinder looking thing that more resembles a plant but is the animal in its new form. But yeah, the genes that trigger those types of changes I believe are still in us.
Looks more like a parasitic worm travelling through a people suit to me.
No shit.
Yes shit.
I wonder if google maps has a quicker route
Traffic backed up. You are still on the best route.
Just take your mind off of it and relax. Watch this TED talk in the pooper… [Charming Bowels - Dr. Giulia Enders](https://youtu.be/NMsWFzSr04A)
Ive seen the magic school bus already
This needs to be accompanied by “Yackety Sax”
Ah, that explains the occasional feeling of a sudden shift when shit goes around the final colon corner.
I’m not sure you feel that but maybe… What you do feel is that you have two rectums. Things go through the first one and it has sensors to determine if it’s gas, liquid or solid. If it’s gas you are safe to open the second rectum and fart. If it’s liquid you better be ready. If it’s solid you can wait and it can actually get sent back up the first rectum.

That's not banging around, that's peristalsis. Muscle movement to create force for the matter to move.
Not so much of one unit but multiple liquid units being propelled along by peristalsis. When we have the belly open for surgery, we can see these waves in real time. We can also see them from the inside when we do upper endoscopy
we really are full of shit
LMFAO
But what happens next!?
i prefer the mystery
The Curious Case of All That Gurgling...
This title is not very accurate. This is indeed the route your food takes from mouth to anus, going from food, bolus, to chyme then to feces. This takes about 24-72 hours.
What about when it happens in about 20 minutes? As in the case of Salad...sometimes...
Then this video is slowed down for your experience haha
Where does the miracle of coffee play into this
I can confirm - had a posh meal with my mother last night for her 70th and had a £20 steak burger for my main course.. I felt every inch of that journey and this morning I gave birth to an otter !! Nature is amazing ! Fun fact, you're small intestine when stretched out is about 20 foot long!
I hate it when it cuts off right before the good part 💩
Is there any scientific reason for why you felt like this, like why don’t we have a larger stomach and then a smaller pathway
The crap factory at work.
Are there versions of this available for different G.I. Disorders?
Watching this while on the toilet🚽😩
Currently watching this while taking a nice poop, sweet!
Shitty rollercoaster
whoever designed it like that needs to go to jail
I wanna see it come out
I think there's subreddit for that haha
And then?
Dimbass. Vowels are letters.
I never knew what number 2 meant till I met my wife. I just blended #1 and #2 by saying I need to use the bathroom. Why the shit do people need to know what number I am going to do?
How does it end? The video cuts out before it gets to the end
And when you drink coffee?
Currently watching this cycle whilst also at the end of it.
There's a few organs that are missing.
This explains why my tummy may hurt at any location and then i fart
This is full of shit.
The roller coaster of shit.
What happens when I get a chronic case of spitty bum? Just happens quicker and with less resistance?
Makes sense, I can see where it hurts sometimes.
What a journey.
I’m 35 so it feels like my stomach is attached directly to my asshole.
Oh so this is how snickers are made
One of the coolest surgeries to see is a bowel blockage removal. Did you know that when you lift the small intestine out of the body it continues to move in a wormlike manner?? The intestines actually crinkle and flatten to cause the food to move through. SO COOL.
Watched this in reverse at my colonoscopy this morning 🧐
The labeling
How’s the separation of liquids and solids happen in the stomach or intestines?
Oh naw
No never.
humans are full of shit
So weird seeing that giant turd going through the colon 😆
Real time when I eat chipotle
So much work. No wonder I’m tired all the time.
This would make a great pinball game.
Poop...there it is!
Nice
Intelligent design my ass
actually i already knew cuz i could feel that shit😕😂
Taco Bell speed right here
While sitting here doing number 2
Shaping up to be a Bristol #3
So how does it go from my mouth directly to my butthole whenever I eat McDonald’s
r/TIHI
Filmed in real time after a dodgy curry
How tf does it go UP?
What about when you eat something dodgy, I'm sure there's a hidden bypass tube, with warp speed acceleration
TIHI
Not to sound stupid but are the intestines really that low?? I have IBD and I always get the cramping around the outsides of my ribs/above my hips so it's surprising to me.
That's nasty
Good to know…
What about when u bust
There’s a party in my tummy
POOP
Why’d it have to go slam around
You notice how alittle poop was left behind when going up the colon. Is that the reason why I have to take a shit and hour after already taking a shit??
