we are now passing through the oesophagus. Over. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
Receiving you loud and clear. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
How's our guinea pig doing? | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
Careful in there, you two, | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
this is one scientific mission I do not want you to get wrong. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
The things we do for science, eh, Doctor? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
Shrunk down to the size of a pea and travelling through Colin's insides. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:23 | |
Buckle up, Professor, I think it's going to be a bumpy ride. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:28 | |
We're going live from my digestive system in five, four, three... | 0:00:28 | 0:00:32 | |
This is Brain Freeze! | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
With Dr Knowles, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
Professor McCork, | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
Colin the floor manager | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
and Ms Hucklebuck. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
-Standby! -Welcome to the Brain Freeze digestion special! | 0:00:46 | 0:00:52 | |
It's time for... | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
Today's Big Question! | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
Today, we're asking... | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
Hm! ..where does poo come from? | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
-PARP! -Ooo! | 0:01:02 | 0:01:03 | |
Our digestive system is made up of multiple organs | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
designed to turn the food we eat into nutrients, | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
which the body uses for energy, growth and repair. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
It begins in our mouths, where chewing and saliva break down food. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
From here, the oesophagus, a muscular tube, | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
carries food to the stomach by means of a series of contractions. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
BOTH: Whoa! Here we go! | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
Once in the stomach, food gets mixed and ground up, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
with powerful stomach acid and enzymes continuing to break it down. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:32 | |
And did you know stomach acid is strong enough to burn through wood? | 0:01:32 | 0:01:37 | |
-Aaaah! -Luckily, our stomachs... | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
-Like the Pooper-Snooper. -..are protected by a layer of mucus | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
that prevents the acid from eating through the stomach lining. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
Hurry up in there! I think I need to use the bathroom! | 0:01:46 | 0:01:50 | |
BOTH: Uh-oh! | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
Um...we seem to have lost the signal. Oh, dear. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
We'll be right back! | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
And we're clear. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
I really need to go, Ms Hucklebuck! | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
Hang in there, Jonathan, we'll figure this out. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
Hucklebuck to Pooper-Snooper. Come in, please. | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
Ah, it's no good, it's completely dead! | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
Speaking of dead, | 0:02:16 | 0:02:17 | |
I think Colin might need to take a look at his diet. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
There's some very strange stuff in here. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
Never mind his diet, we need to find the exit to his intestines | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
or we'll never get out of here! | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
Yes! We're back! You're just approaching the exit, Dr Knowles. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:35 | |
Full speed ahead. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
There it is! Hold tight, Professor, we're going in! | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
Er...I think you mean out. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
Today's Big Answer! | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
So, tell us, Ms Hucklebum... | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:02:51 | 0:02:52 | |
Hucklebum! That's brilliant, that is! Ha! | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
So, tell us, where does poo come from? | 0:02:55 | 0:02:58 | |
Once it leaves the stomach, food enters the small intestine, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
a narrow tube around six metres long. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
The walls of the small intestine absorb nutrients from food | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
and pass them into the bloodstream. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
And what's left over moves into the large intestine, | 0:03:10 | 0:03:12 | |
before eventually... | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
Before eventually... | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
SHE COUGHS | 0:03:17 | 0:03:18 | |
Oh, what a pong! | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
Brace yourself, Professor! Here we go! | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
And I think you can figure out the rest. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
Er...Jonathan? | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
PARP! | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
Oh! Ooo! Oh! Ah! | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
See you next time. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Ahhhhh! | 0:03:42 | 0:03:43 | |
I hope you washed your hands, Jonathan! | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
Of course, Ms Hucklebuck. You know me. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
-Whaa! -Whoa! -So, so dark! | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
-Never again! -Ha-ha! | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
Well, I don't know about you lot, | 0:03:55 | 0:03:56 | |
but I think we'll have to do a spring clean every year from now on. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:00 | |
Not me. No way! From now on, I'm sticking to life-sized science. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:06 | |
Well, well! We're all tough scientists on the outside, | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
but we all know it's what's on the inside that counts. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:14 | |
Eh, Jonathan? | 0:04:14 | 0:04:15 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
-PARP! -Ooo! Pardon me. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
And by the way, the name's Colin. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
-PARP! -Oh! | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
-PARP! -Oh! Sorry. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
-PARP! -Oh, watch out behind. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
-PARP! -I'm really sorry. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
Oh! Oh, dear! | 0:04:32 | 0:04:33 | |
Oh, there's another. That was me. I'm sorry! | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 |
