Bestie, did you know that before CPR, there were smoke enemas?

Yeah, let's say it's like the late 18th century.

You're swimming in the Thames River, looking super cute, go off, but oh no!

Fret not, a good Samaritan will pull your sexy little body out of the rev-rev and carry you into a house fitted with medical equipment.

There, they'd strip you of your fire fit, light a tobacco pipe, stick it up your butt, and literally blow smoke up your ass.

I mean, knowing you, this is real, but like, what?

Early methods of resuscitation begin in the 1500s, ranging from whipping the unconscious person, to rolling them over a barrel, to even just putting you on a horse.

Well, they'd run back and forth with like the little horse, hoping that it would make you breathe.

Like, I-I would go that way, I would die on a horse.

Sadly, the trotting horse method only lasted three years.

That was-that was a thing in the 18th century?

The sandlot would have looked very different.

Oh my god, yeah, that kid pretending to be a drowning victim, because he had the hots for the lifeguard, it would have been a very different scene.

There's no way you could pretend to be drowned when that goes- Okay, wait, so like, why did doctors think that blowing smoke up someone's butt was gonna save them from drowning?

Well, they thought it would like, warm up the victim, and stimulate respiration.

But it wasn't just exclusive to drowning victims.

There were all of these, like, resuscitator kits to treat colds, headaches, respiratory failure, cholera, hernias, abdominal cramps.

But that one is as long as you administer the butt smoke with feeding chicken broth by the mouth at the same time.  Ob.

Unfortunately, they didn't really realize that the person who was blowing the smoke into your butt could accidentally inhale the tobacco, and when they coughed from that tobacco, then they would get like, infected diarrhea into their mouth.

Well, I'm really glad I did not exist in the time period where if I was drowning, someone would have put a tobacco pipe up my ass.

This tobacco enema kit at every lifeguard station?

Ooh, wow. 200 years ago, you tried to put smoke up my butt, you pervert.
