Humans are capable of a lot more then what we are expected to believe in the first place. Being able to hold your breath for over a minute, withstanding very cold conditions, and being able to remove your own appendix?
Leonid Rogozov, a medic for the Soviet Antarctic research station, had been forced to remove his own appendix. How? This began while on an expedition, he began to felt very ill, then lethargic. As the day went on he became more and more weak and more and more nauseous. It became obvious that he needed to take his appendix out or he could have died. Without any medicine available to ease the pain and no where near any type of hospital, Rogozov was then only limited to taking out his own appendix. This action saved his life.
My Question: Would you be able do anything like Leonid did?.. Even if it was to save your own life?
