I have been watching these videos of surgery from the 1930's over my morning coffee, and they are too amazing not to share with my friends. :)
If you find the sight of doctors chiseling out a big chunk of skull, or running their hands around a beachball-sized ovarian tumor to figure out where it is attached to the patient's insides disturbing, you may not want to watch. But it's fascinating stuff if you can bear it.
I will never complain about modern medicine again. Though I'm sure seeing modern video of the same operations would be equally disturbing.
