Dr. Jerry Payne: On the Decomposing Pig

[quaxk]

anybody counted the number of times he said pig? that would be a hell of a drinking game! :)

[LisaChuUK]

'decomposition of the bohohhdeey'

[RoflMcCopterson]

I love how his voice sounds.

[vemvillhaenpinne]

i like listening to this wise man, his voice is soothing

[nokomarie1963]

Good work. Seems as though maggots will be several inches into the soil after a decomposed body has been removed, correct?

[locouk]

I have a similar project underway, I have my subject item in a sealed fish tank, vented to the outside via tubes and an air pump. Trouble is I have to keep opening the tank to de-mist the glass. I can keep the temperature at a constant 25℃, but the glass misting is really bugging me!

PS. I have plenty of air freshener! LOL

[AthenaLolita2]

very interesting.

[0ver9kay]

@camandhayley

judging by your comment, you probably watched most of this video, and that one mistake is the only information you took in lol.

[MisterMuzick]

Sometimes they floated away.

[Jonaeproductionx3]

Dogs and cats?! O.o

[RedAntBlackAnt]

Pigs, piglets...very smooth...piglets, water vapor, not smoke....pigs, hogs, swine, very cool. Pigs, hogs, this one cartridge will get me through the whole day. Pigs, hogs, very smooth too.

[lookitsthescenekid]

@RedAntBlackAnt wtf?

[sk8ergirl57180]

@RedAntBlackAnt uuh...

[silentbutdeadly003]

wow decompostion with insects finishes in 6 days? that is amazing!!!

[FUBAR329]

Super interesting to hear how he had to be creative to fulfill his needs for weighing the mass of each pig.

[MadeWithFlames]

Ya baby Clemson!!

[MonkeyThunder5]

I only watched this to make sure he didn't go out shooting baby pigs!

[drochalsey]

Thank you Dr. Payne for your thorough & needed study.

Thank you folstreamer for archiving this.

The world of science & our societies are benefitted by BOTH of you & your courageous, value-productive, honest and honorable high-integrity efforts; even if the evil, lazy, value-destructive miscreants/misanthropes (that indicate their ignorant, dumb-animal-like, NON-thinking by making mind-numbing detractions) are too stupid to realize that their pathetic, parisitical lives depend on folks like u.

[bluenail90]

This guy's lying.

[ButcheredAtBirth77]

@bluenail90 how so?

[bluenail90]

@ButcheredAtBirth77 Check out any vid on detecting a lie, looking up etc. He's telling some truth and some lies. No big deal, it's just I saw a vid about it before this one and felt like commenting some bull. Sorry to waste your head-space. : )

[ButcheredAtBirth77]

@bluenail90 no its fine. i know what you mean. about things like minor twitches that are biological in our system. so saying something and how you feel can be contradictory. i'm in a forensic science class right now so i know exactly what your saying.

[megamrpopocorn]

i see why your called, dr PAIN

[crazedmaster]

this guy is baller!!

[RafalKunka]

Hahaha im sure serial killers and mureders are grateful

[DevSodDribble]

@EspressoFan4Life 'I was born at an early age, and come from a long line of dead people...'

[DevSodDribble]

I just love that his name is 'Dr. Payne.'

[keyholeGX]

red neck xD

[CrazeeCatrin]

his hat looks like an upside down bowl.

[kdixon7783c]

From the dust you were taken, and to the dust you shall return. Wow!

[bearmare]

Modern embalming methods prevent decomposition over the long term. Given that there must be the appropriate conditions for decomposition to occur, it's very likely that human decomposition (after embalming and burial) will not occur if ever.

[gespilk]

Scary but interesting. it is fine As long as there is someone willing to pay him to do this.

This type of thinking generates knowledge and brings progress.

I could imagine similar thinking back in the centuries from the first surgeons performing autopsies on exhumed bodies.

Doctors in Nazi Germany were thinking the same way experimenting with Jews. The modern medicine has benefited from their work.

[whackersneeze]

This is the best video on Youtube.

[woodalan]

With humans is diferent? I dont think so!

[jtd04c]

I was interested in what happens to animals after they die. lol.

[kbrena]

Interesting interview.

[blkchkma]

to blindmagi-naw do you really think so! Of course it does, adopting a religious or spiritual outlook will also influence that!

[concordbridge1776]

Fascinating interview. It was interesting that he still had his regional accent, even with his advanced academic achievements. Completing the studies in different locations, including the air was very insightful. In the Northwest US, some native people built funeral platforms in protected locations.

[blkchkma]

tall32guy this is for you! Thats a pretty idiotic question! Who gives a shit of how this guy wants to be handled after death! What a!

[bomblebuxer]

Why the hostility? It's a perfectly valid question.

[blindmagi]

Isn't one of the primary points of science to inform the way that we live (or in this case, die)? It seems to me that adopting a strong empirical outlook on life, versus religious, spiritual, whatever, would certainly change the way that you think about how you want your body handled.

[tall32guy]

I wonder how Dr Payne, considering all the research he's done on dead animals and the like, has decided how he wants his body to be handled after death. It would be interesting to see if his research has influenced that in any way.

[jizzznizzle]

uhmmm if you watch this... then you'll know he didnt kill the pig

[blkchkma]

he bludgeoned them to death! who cares they're just animals with no feelings!

[Hollinfarms]

He didn't kill them. He collected them from farmers. The piglets were already dead. Mother pigs lie on their babies very frequently and crush them. This is why they invented pig crates -- to prevent sows from crushing their babies.

[tall32guy]

The pig he used wasn't killed by humans; her mother rolled on her and accidentally killed her, as mother pigs tend to do.

[mugz1105]

just to make it clear you didn't kill any animals right???? They died because of like surgery or birth problems right????

[dasdafoij]

he killed em with rocks mate, google it

[Narutoguy89]

he said in the description in the pig decomposing that the animals were killed by their mother or any natural causes

[bugwitch]

I would love to meet Dr. Payne. I am currently conducting similar research. I agree about the smell. But when the ammonia scent is strong I get a bit annoyed by it.

Thank you for posting this video! Great stuff.

[bobbaay]

very interesting, thanks

[kabrilew]

Absolutely fascinating! I wish there were more of this interview.....

[y0utub35uck]

nice hat

[tohopes]

1:45 "...or, died shortly after death..."

[FromtheBrothersGrimm]

he meant "died shortly after 'birth' ".

[kuro79]

disgusting topic yet highly interesting!

[portugalreis]

This is just study, nothing rong with it

[DESBERRY]

found you by serendipity.

Fascinating!

Got so lost in your explanation that I forgot what I was looking for
