[00:00:00]Someone cut a hole into this person's skull.

[00:00:03]Through the scalp.

[00:00:05]Through the bone.

[00:00:06]Into the space around a living brain.

[00:00:09]No metal, no anesthesia, no idea that germs existed.

[00:00:14]And here's the part that should stop you.

[00:00:16]The edges of the hole are smooth.

[00:00:19]Rounded.

[00:00:21]Healed.

[00:00:22]The patient woke up.

[00:00:24]Walked away. Lived for years.

[00:00:28]We've found thousands of these skulls.

[00:00:30]Some 7,000 years old. And most of them healed.

[00:00:35]How a person survived their own skull being opened with nothing we'd call medicine.

[00:00:40]That's what the full video unpacks.
