This is the first episode of Dr Lindsey Fitzharris’s new show called “Under the Knife”, a YouTube series dedicated to the horrors of pre-anaesthetic surgery, and I am already in love. In this episode, she introduces us to her favorite old medical device: the clockwork saw. It’s about as weird and gruesome and awesome as you might expect, and Fitzharris’s delivery is great. Really looking forward to seeing more disgusting and delightful episodes. >> Rose
