00:00A 28-year-old patient came to the hospital with worrisome symptoms.

00:05He explained to the doctor that he felt a large thoracic gene and that he had been coughing a lot for a while.

00:11The medical staff immediately knew that he had no time to waste and gave him radios.

00:17Strangely, the results were nothing unusual.

00:21The patient just had a mass in his lungs that he had to remove as soon as possible.

00:26Of course, this was not the best news for the man, but it was probably nothing that the doctors had not seen before.

00:31But this first opinion changed the day of the operation.

00:35Not only was the whole operation more difficult than they had originally planned,

00:39but the mass they removed from the patient had an unusual shape.

00:44When a small probe was sent for a more in-depth examination, the doctors were perplexed.

00:49It was a little tree.

00:51The doctors who had participated in the operation thought that the man had inhaled a seed

00:56that had settled inside the lungs of the man.

00:59After the seed had become a young tree,

01:01its small needles began to damage the tissues that surrounded it,

01:05which caused a gene in the chest and back.

01:08While the story was gaining popularity,

01:10scientists looked at this mysterious story and were not so easily inclined to believe it,

01:15claiming that it was very likely invented.

01:18On the one hand, most plants need a lot of light to grow,

01:21but there is none in a human lung.

01:24On the other hand, if it were that simple, we would all have things growing in our body.

01:28After all, small seeds are not so difficult to swallow or inhale.

01:33This is not the only story of plants growing in a human lung that disconcerted scientists.

01:39In 2010, a man from Massachusetts was hospitalized after his lung collapsed.

01:44Again, it did not seem to take the doctors by surprise,

01:47as unfortunate as it may be,

01:49because the patient already had antecedents of respiratory problems.

01:53Nevertheless, they discovered a mass inside the lung of the man

01:57and immediately removed it.

01:59What they found was just as surprising as the tree.

02:02A small plant of small peas.

02:04Only this time, the doctors suggested that the man had probably eaten peas for dinner

02:09and that one of them had simply taken the wrong path

02:12and had not finished in his stomach as he should have.

02:14Once he had reached his lungs, the little peas began to feel comfortable

02:17and began to grow leaves.

02:20The explanation is a little more complex in this case, but it remains plausible.

02:24It turns out that the piece that was removed from the lung of the man was only 15 cm long.

02:30Something so small can not really be considered a plant in its entirety,

02:34but the seed could still grow.

02:37It is because a pea can germinate even without light.

02:40It does so naturally underground.

02:42The tiny seed does not need light at this stage,

02:45because it has enough energy stored in it to help it grow to the ground level,

02:49where it will then receive the sunlight it needs to continue.

02:54Because of their relationship with the sun,

02:57plants are called autotrophs,

02:59or organisms that use exposure to light to feed.

03:03Many of us think that plants get their daily menu from the earth,

03:07but this is not enough.

03:10Plants need sunlight, water and gases in the air to produce glucose,

03:15the substance they use to feed themselves.

03:18This whole process is called photosynthesis,

03:20and is carried out by all plants, algae and even a bunch of microorganisms,

03:25such as purple, sulfurous bacteria.

03:28Now let's go back to our unfortunate human patient.

03:31While it is true that the pea could germinate because it contained enough moisture to survive,

03:36it did not become a normal-sized plant.

03:39Look at this.

03:41There are people who can fold their little finger without folding their ring.

03:45But most find it difficult, or even impossible, to accomplish.

03:49When they move their middle finger or little finger,

03:52they tend to slightly bend their ring as well.

03:55Yes, for me too this is the case.

03:57The luxation of the eyeball is an extremely rare condition

04:00that allows some people to bring their eyes out of their orbits.

04:04Unfortunately, this ability has disadvantages.

04:07It can lead to many eye problems.

04:10Some indigenous peoples, such as the Tibetans,

04:13can survive at altitudes as high as those of Mount Everest.

04:17This rare aptitude is very likely to appear after years of evolution.

04:22The ancestors of modern Tibetans lived in high regions for thousands of years,

04:27and their red blood cells have adapted as a result,

04:30making it possible to survive at dangerously low levels of oxygen.

04:34The Bajau are nomads of the sea living in Southeast Asia.

04:38These individuals have developed an extra-large rat

04:41serving as a depot of blood cells rich in oxygen.

04:44Thanks to this, they can easily spend 5 to 10 minutes

04:48fishing underwater without going back to the surface to breathe,

04:51if only once.

04:53About 14% of the population is deprived of long-palm muscle.

04:58Poor old man.

05:00It is in fact a rudimentary part of the body,

05:03and the need for it has disappeared during our evolutionary process.

05:07So, if you do not have this muscle, do not worry.

05:11Its absence does not affect the functioning of your forearm in any way.

05:15About 5 to 37% of people have been deprived of wisdom teeth since their birth.

05:21These teeth are no longer really necessary today.

05:24They were important for our ancestors,

05:26because they helped them to chew hard foods like nuts,

05:30roots and raw meat.

05:32And the caramels soft with the salt of Guérande.

05:35No, I'm making it up.

05:37But as most of the food we eat today is transformed,

05:40wisdom teeth are no longer just a simple atavism.

05:44Most people have only one spiral of hair implantation

05:47which goes in the direction of the needles and a watch.

05:50But 5 people out of 100 have a double crown.

05:53And if the two spirals are directed in the opposite direction of the needles and a watch,

05:57it makes the person even more unique.

06:00Some scientists think there is a genetic link

06:03between the direction of this spiral and our right hand.

06:06A little more than 8% of right-handed people have a spiral

06:10going in the opposite direction of the needles and a watch.

06:13But in left-handed people, this number goes up to 45%.

06:17The brain of the man ages faster than that of the woman.

06:21With age, men begin to complain more and more often

06:24of memory problems and lack of concentration.

06:27As for why the nails of the hands grow faster than those of the feet,

06:30the short answer could be that we use our hands more than our feet.

06:35Our fingernails are more exposed

06:37and we may have evolved to make them grow faster.

06:40The more you use a certain part of your body,

06:43the more it is exposed to damage.

06:45Speaking of fingers, it is high time to show recognition to our ears.

06:50We underestimate their importance

06:52because we do not use them to hold objects, eat or write.

06:56But recent studies have shown that losing the little finger of our dominant hand

07:00would have a devastating effect.

07:03Specialists have not collected enough data to provide precise figures,

07:07but according to what they have learned so far,

07:10losing our little finger would considerably weaken our forefinger strength,

07:14even if it is the least used finger.

07:17If we removed the ring, in addition,

07:19the effect would be even worse for our ability to perceive.

07:23Another recent study carried out in the United Kingdom

07:26showed that about 40% of people are satisfied with the appearance of their nose.

07:31No matter what you think of yours,

07:33the human nose is a superhero in everyday life.

07:36It acts as a heater, filter and humidifier.

07:41Inside each nostril, there are small holes in the shape of shelves

07:45that contain blood vessels.

07:47These heat the air before it reaches the other parts of our respiratory system.

07:52The mucus that is there takes care of making the air more humid.

07:56As for the filtering part, this is why we have nose hairs.

08:00The small particles get stuck on these hairs,

08:03which helps to prevent pollen, spores, viruses or bacteria from reaching our lungs.

08:08The cartoons make us believe that the sound our heart makes

08:12is due to the fact that it touches its environment when it beats.

08:15In reality, this sound is produced by the opening and closing of the heart valves.

08:20They are like small doors inside our heart that open and close

08:24to properly pump the blood from one side of the heart to the other.

08:28For our body to work, the blood must flow at the right time and in the right direction.

08:33Now let's talk about teeth.

08:35Throughout your life, you will spend up to 40 days in total just brushing your teeth.

08:40And in case you're still wondering, teeth are not bones,

08:44even if they have a lot in common with them.

08:47One of the main differences between bones and teeth

08:50is that our bones can regenerate.

08:52They are living tissues.

08:54Our teeth are not, and they remain permanently damaged once broken.

08:58Here's another surprising fact.

09:00We are the only species on this planet to have a chin.

09:04This question is still being debated in the scientific community,

09:07but one of the reasons seems to be to make our jaws stronger.

09:11As humans evolved, their teeth and jaw muscles became smaller and smaller.

09:17So they needed something to help them increase their jaw strength.

09:22Most of us have developed specific features

09:26depending on the region of the globe in which we live.

09:29But there is a group of people,

09:31especially those who live at high altitudes,

09:33who have developed rather nice features.

09:36High-altitude environments contain less oxygen.

09:40However, not only do these people survive in these places,

09:43but they have adapted so well that they thrive there.

09:46In the Andes, in South America,

09:49people have developed red blood cells that can transport a lot more oxygen.

09:53This makes their circulatory system much more efficient.

09:56People living in Tibet must endure similar conditions.

10:00But surprisingly, they have adapted differently.

10:03Tibetans can breathe more quickly

10:06in order to properly oxygenate their bodies.

10:09You have probably heard the myth

10:11that dreams only last a few seconds in reality.

10:14This is the case for some of them,

10:16but all dreams are not that short.

10:18There are many things that we do not yet understand

10:21about the way we dream.

10:23But what we do know is that dreams occur mainly

10:26during the phase of sleep called REM,

10:29or rapid eye movement.

10:31Hey, can you speak louder?

10:33I just ate a whole pizza.

10:35It's because after eating a big meal,

10:37our hearing tends to be a little less fine.

10:40During digestion, most of our blood circulation

10:43is oriented towards the stomach,

10:45which deprives a little of all the other organs.

10:48So, the next time you want to listen to your favorite band

10:51during a concert, make sure you eat a lighter meal

10:54so that your hearing is optimal.

10:56In addition to our stomach and our left kidney,

10:59we have a magical organ that can repel

11:01if we remove a part of it.

11:03Our liver can regenerate

11:05by making new cells called hepatocytes.

11:08They begin to multiply as soon as the liver has been damaged.

11:12The gravity of the lesion determines

11:14if the liver can regenerate completely

11:16and how long it will take to do so.

11:18You have already wondered what is the worst thing for your body,

11:21not sleeping or not eating.

11:23It turns out that lack of sleep is more dangerous.

11:26Indeed, if you do not rest,

11:28your body is exposed to much more risk.

11:30After 24 hours without sleep,

11:32you can start having memory problems

11:34and have trouble concentrating.

11:36After only 17 hours without sleep,

11:38you start to feel tired and dizzy,

11:41irritated, tense and more emotional.

11:44OK, I need a nap.

11:46Your pain receptors also become more sensitive,

11:49which means that everything hurts you a little more than normal.

11:52Oh, and it also affects your hearing.

11:55What?

11:56On the other hand,

11:58you can have your first 24-hour period without food

12:01before your body realizes that you have stopped eating.

12:04During the first 8 hours,

12:06you continue to digest the last meals you took.

12:09After these first hours,

12:11you start using stored fats as a source of energy.

12:14If you do not eat for more than 24 hours,

12:16your body will start eating its own proteins,

12:19which means that you will literally start losing muscle.

12:23Rainwater is not always drinkable.

12:25It can sometimes contain dangerous bacteria and viruses.

12:28In addition, in highly polluted places,

12:31it can also contain other harmful substances.

12:34Some communities rely solely on rainwater

12:36as their main source of hydration.

12:38But does rainwater have health benefits?

12:41Not really, according to current studies.

12:44Some of these dangerous substances

12:46can be eliminated from rainwater if you boil it.

12:49But it is preferable to remain cautious

12:51and to drink only water that comes from sources

12:54without any risk for human consumption.

12:56We produce sweat mainly to regulate our body temperature

13:00and to add a little moisture,

13:02like the one we need in the palm of our hands

13:05to have a better grip.

13:07But sweat does not appear only on our skin.

13:10It comes out of about 5 million pores on our body.

13:13We literally walk on a quarter of our bones every day.

13:16Our body has a little more than 200 bones,

13:19but about a quarter of them are in a very small surprising area,

13:23our feet.

13:25As we have 26 bones in each foot,

13:27we have 52 in both.

13:29You may have this physical feature without knowing it,

13:33since sometimes even radiographs go unnoticed.

13:36We have, for the most part, 12 pairs of ribs,

13:39namely 24 ribs in all.

13:42However, some people have 25.

13:46A single person out of 200 is born with this little plus.

13:49This is the cervical rib syndrome.

13:52This rib, in addition, is generally located above the first ribs,

13:55at the base of the neck and just above the clavicles.

13:58This is nothing alarming.

14:00Most of the time, the cervical ribs go unnoticed,

14:03and if they ever cause pain, they are easy to remove.

14:06Do you see the huskies?

14:08Have you noticed that their eyes are sometimes two different colors?

14:11Some humans also have this feature.

14:14This is a phenomenon called heterochromia.

14:17This word comes from the ancient Greek heteros,

14:20which means different,

14:22and from chroma, which means color.

14:25There are cases of total, central or partial heterochromia.

14:29When a person's eyes are two completely different colors,

14:33let's say a brown eye and a green eye,

14:36we talk about total heterochromia.

14:38When the outline of the pupil is a different color

14:41than the rest of the iris, we talk about central heterochromia.

14:44And when a single part of the eye is a different color,

14:47we talk about partial heterochromia.

14:49You are born with this feature,

14:51but it can also occur at a specific time,

14:53such as after an accident.

14:55It's still very rare.

14:57In the United States, people with this feature are less than 200,000.

15:00Let's say it's pretty cool anyway.

15:03Speaking of eye color,

15:05do you know what the rarest color is?

15:08No need to search on Google, it's gray.

15:11You might think it's blue,

15:13and you're not entirely wrong.

15:16The percentage of people with blue eyes

15:18is estimated to be between 8 and 17% worldwide.

15:21As for gray eyes, they are even less common.

15:24Less than 1% of the population has eyes of this color.

15:28This very rare feature

15:30is due to a low level of melanin in the layers of the iris.

15:34You are more likely to meet someone

15:36with gray eyes in Eastern and Northern Europe.

15:39There are even rarer eye colors,

15:41such as red and purple,

15:43but it can simply be a symptom of a particular state of health.

15:47There are people who have the chance

15:49to distinguish 100 million different colors,

15:52and without the help of gadgets.

15:55We distinguish colors

15:57thanks to photoreceptors located in our eyes.

15:59We generally have three types of photoreceptors

16:02capable of translating what we see into colors

16:05that our brain can capture.

16:07Researchers think there is a small group of people

16:10called tetrachromates,

16:12and they have four types of photoreceptors.

16:15To date, researchers have identified

16:17only women with this feature.

16:20Do you see this little piece of flesh

16:22hanging at the bottom of your throat?

16:24Yes, the one that helps you swallow.

16:26It's your urethra, also called uvula.

16:28This name comes from Latin uvula,

16:30which means little grain of grapes.

16:33Some people are born with what we call a bifid uvula,

16:38a uvula that has a slit or fork.

16:42It's great for farting in the evening.

16:45Joking aside, people with bifid uvulas

16:48can have problems eating, drinking, and speaking.

16:52They can also have digestion problems

16:55and have a strange speech.

16:57But it depends on the size of the slit of the uvula.

17:01No one really knows what the slit is for,

17:04but it's always at the end of a book.

17:06Oh no, it's not the right slit.

17:08Some researchers believe that the human slit

17:11helped our ancestors digest the bark of trees

17:14and other foods they ate at the time.

17:16Since then, our diet has been balanced

17:19and our slit could disappear without any consequences.

17:23Wisdom teeth also have no use.

17:26Yes, they were useful before the invention of the dentist,

17:29but we can do without them now.

17:32Your brain grows by about 2%

17:35if you venture into space.

17:37With terrestrial gravity,

17:39we think that the fluids in the brain

17:41flow down when we stand up.

17:43But microgravity prevents this process from occurring

17:47and the fluids accumulate in the brain

17:49and in the skull.

17:51As you age, the size of your brain

17:53gradually decreases.

17:55At 75, the brain is smaller than 30 years old

17:58and it starts to shrink at 40.

18:00It happens to everyone,

18:02so you just have to accept it

18:04and always train your brain.

18:06If you look carefully at your eyes in a mirror,

18:09you will notice a small pink circle

18:11in the corner of the eye.

18:13This is your third eyelid.

18:15Useless for humans,

18:17it is very useful for animals,

18:19especially for birds.

18:21It protects the eyes from dust.

18:23If you've ever heard of natural selection,

18:25you know what I'm talking about.

18:27Some parts of the body are damaged

18:29through generations,

18:31so if an element is dangerous or useless,

18:33it disappears the next generation,

18:35like the third eyelid, for example.

18:37It's not just our brain

18:39that shrinks over time.

18:41We shrink too.

18:43Our bones become more fragile

18:45and the spine compresses.

18:47Conversely, when you sleep and relax,

18:49your bones also relax

18:51and you wake up bigger than the day before.

18:53Our ears help us maintain balance.

18:55They don't just serve to hear.

18:57Our inner ear contains our vestibular system.

18:59The channels of the inner ear

19:01contain fluids and small sensors

19:03that look like hairs

19:05and allow you to maintain balance.

19:07As far as hairs are concerned,

19:09only a few parts of the body

19:11are not covered.

19:13These are palms of the hands,

19:15plants of the feet and lips.

19:17There are even hairs in the navel

19:19that protect it from impurities.

19:21Mine do their job very well.

19:23Our navels

19:25house a varied fauna.

19:27There are more than 70 different bacteria.

19:29Some of these bacteria

19:31are also present in the ground in Japan

19:33and others in the ice caps.

19:35You see,

19:37there is a real navel operation

19:39going on in your navel

19:41and you didn't know it.

19:43Only 43% of yourself

19:45is really there.

19:47You are composed of 50%

19:49of small creatures

19:51that live in your intestine

19:53and in other parts of the body.

19:55Although the number of your cells

19:57is less than the number of bacterial cells,

19:59you still have 100 trillion.

20:01Knowing this,

20:03your genes finally correspond

20:05to less than half of what constitutes you.

20:07If we consider all the microbes

20:09that live in your body

20:11and that we count their genes,

20:13we will talk about 2 to 20 million genes

20:15and their combinations.

20:17When you sleep,

20:19sometimes the brain works

20:21even harder when you are asleep.

20:25It must process tons of information

20:27and the calculations take time.

20:29One thing that really rests

20:31when you sleep is your nose.

20:33It is impossible to smell

20:35when you sleep.

20:37The smell goes away at night.

20:39If it smells very bad in your room,

20:41you won't even realize it.
