  • bullshi t they wanna reuse those leeches over and over again.

  • There is also an islamic practice called Saum (fasting) which cleans the body of impure toxins in the blood. It was practiced by muslim and people before them.

  • There is an islamic practice called hijama (or hijama hidzama or bekam) which is cupping blood. It is heavy promoted by Prophet Muhammed (saws).

  • wouldn't it cause HIV or AIDS?

  • This isn't medival Europe.

  • The next time you go to 7-11, loogout! that muddafucca might throw a leech at you!!!

  • At least this is better than maggot therapy!

  • hahahaa a vampire has a pet leeche

  • Were they using Leeches to remove pimples???

    IF SO, I AM IN

  • omfg

  • wait wait wait... they re-use the leeches?... im all for keeping them alive but isnt that like sharing a needle? ive been watching these vids and other doctors that do this dont reuse them on other patients...but then again im not a doctort :/

  • @minaLUV88 Huh. I'm pretty sure they shouldn't reuse the leeches until they have been cleaned (like medical leeches are bred clean and I guess there is a way to sterilize them after using them).

  • @IneedaYTaccount Leeches wont pass on disease. they secrete chemicals that kill bacteria and prevet viral transfer

  • Very high concentrates of protein and vitamin e also cure skin illnesses when applied to the infected area...

  • leeches tikka

  • lol... 1:40 - now I know where they get their third eye from!

  • ... leeches are used medically nowadays to get rid of blood clots in your body... not to "drain out impure blood"... -.-

  • Why when he puts that shit, the leech spit the blood???

  • 2:28 Its A SHEE!!!?

  • id kill myself if one was on me

  • I can't believe he's called a doctor

  • I wonder what that was to make the leeches vomit

  • That's cool that they can make it expel all the blood it drank by pouring turmeric on it. Though the whole practice is fucking retarded, superstition doesn't serve a purpose.

  • well, leaches have been proven to be somewhat beneficial, but only for certain maladies, like blood clotting and such.

  • how to feed the leeches?

  • He just drops some blood in the water they dwell in.

  • uhhmmm i recognize him off jackass 2 haha~

  • Lol tentacle hentai! wait.......nvm.

  • i was wondering why they put that yellow stuff on them, but then they say it was for them to vomit, and i was like "they could vomit?". lol.

  • me too.

  • Hmm... Odd. I've come across at least three Bug treatments. Maggots, Bees, and now Leeches. My this world is mysterious.

  • leech therapy is a like of operative treatment, with its miracules result... doctor should not treat them as labour therapy... it should be done only with hygiene and precaution parameters..

  • ans thank god they make them vomit hte blood

    leeches are rly cool things and they shoudnt feel pain either

  • do leeches hurt when they bite/suck?

  • I think they inject an anesthetic substance when biting so their host do not feel anything.

  • leech can suck AIDS / HERPE / HIV / HSV / STD...

    then what happen to leech

  • Leech AIDS!

  • hi twit,

    really leech will getting AIDS from a person,,,

    what happen to a leech,,,

    how long to live

  • what kind of powder is that they put on the leeches to make them throw up the blood? how do you spell it?

  • Ipecac of some sort?

  • Thermite powder

  • It's tumeric powder. It's used in cooking to give the yellow tint for a variety of food. It's also slightly spicy, but not as spicy as chilli.

  • Let me add a bit to this info. Guys, incase ur American,get this. The U.S actually patented this yellow product called turmeric. India claimed authority over this and the patent was revoked. India was well aware of turmeric thousands of years ago in ayurveda. Turmeric is said to have a lot of medicinal properties

  • I was like "Is that Ketchup and mustard?" LOl but then i seen them throwing up blow.. :D

  • Ugh,

    My stomach hurted after I saw blood,

    But 10/10 for the leech in a bowl o' water!

  • Ow..Hetting leeches on you face would hurt..like steve-o getting leeches in his eye from wildboyz

  • i was thinking of getting leaches and putting them on a a few of my acne scars you think the wound would heal up evenly over the scar?

  • I do this on my horse's skin lesions when the meds the vet rx'ed didn't work..the leeches cleared it up in 3 days and there was no scar.

  • Yes, I learned This in school.

    Leeches Prevent Blood Clots which causes strokes,heart attacks and all that

  • A good leech is the dead leech.

  • I have no problem with it! I will try it if it saves my life!

  • that's wild!

  • Eew.

  • stick it on a pus pocket and let the thing suffer!

  • 1:12 that thing is HUGE

  • the yellow stuff is kl it just vomits the blood up u can keep on using it lol

  • This is Turmeric

  • new cause of a blood transmition disease taking birth....

  • Blood letting doesn't work, but leeches can be used to improve circulation to re-attached limbs, fingers, toes or other parts, and to some transplants (Also external. Leeches won't be used within your body).

    The leeches used are a special medicinal breed, and they are discarded/killed afterward so that they cannot be re-used, as they can carry and transmit some human blood-born diseases.

  • i dont get y they would make them throw up the blood if they just end up disposing of it, and if they dont get rid of it then there stands the chance of transmitting the disease to other patients

  • if you burn them with fire they might not vomit inside you when you take them off

  • isnt that the guy from jackass 2?

  • i saw a guy who had a leech on his leg and he picked up the leech a ate it........it was soooo gross

  • The idea of localized "bad blood" causing problems in your body is pseudoscientific garbage. Your blood is constantly being mixed at a rapid rate.

    It only takes 20 seconds for a blood cell to make a complete trip through your circulatory system.

  • i still think it would be cool to see a leech suck on a puss filled bump.

  • that would suck, cuz when a leach sucks you it gives you a chemical that doesn't let your blood coagulate so you have a bleeding hole in your skin

  • interesante, me gustaría saber que utilizan ellos para hacer que las sanguijuelas para votar la sangre?

  • wow when they vomit that is weird and interesting

  • thats not english thats Indish : thats how they talk between diffrrent ethnic groups in india to communicate. lol

  • Why do nazi speak english? because they lost the war!

  • oh really? now I know...

  • "why Indian bother.."......we do have a great vocabulary display out here...lol

  • HEYYY!!! When your poisoned, your can let a leech SUCK THE POISON IN YOUR BLOOD! :D

  • Hey india does not have ugly woman after all.

  • so what happens if a leech suck a person with aid or cancer blood would they be cured than.

  • No because its in their system it would just come back after a while

  • leeches are sick

    i use to have a few at mi friends they were like 10-14 inches long

    and we would put them on our arms and let them suck our blood

  • if i was u i woulda put the bitch in the micro wave and watch it die
