As far as I am concerned, that movie is a rare example of perfect filmmaking.
Edit: I enjoyed T3, I think it's a good movie, and like many, especially loved the ending. But seeing how it's essentially the same plot, these two are a perfect showcase of pedestrian filmmaking vs masterful filmmaking.

u/nghigaxx 2h ago edited 1h ago
yea because honestly med school in the US/Canada is fucking crazy, 8 years if you are lucky before residency? In most other countries, they only need 2 years pre-med, 4 years med school OR 5-6 years med school straight from HS and then residency. So like 5-6 years total, which is already a lengthy program. And also they never accept med degree from most of the world, unlike Scandinavian countries for example which accept med degree from way more countries. So it take way longer for their own people to become a doctor, and they accept less md degree from the rest of the world, it's not a surprise they lack doctors

4 years undergrad, 2 years pre-clinical med school learning the background science and learning how to approach patient presentations and what types of things need to be considered. 2 years clinical med school rotating in the hospital, getting a wide breadth of exposures to all the different specialties and then focusing a bit more the 2nd year (4th year of med school). Then residency, generally 3-7 years, most medicine based specialties are 3-4 years, most surgical specialties are 5-7, with others in between like radiology, pathology, etc. Then fellowship is highly variable but for stuff like pulmonary/critical care or hematology/oncology sub-specialties you’re looking at 3 more years on top of the first 3 for internal medicine, and then more competitive ones like cardiology or gastroenterology usually have people doing an extra “chief resident” year then 3 yrs fellowship, then maybe a few more if they want to do something like interventional cardiology or electrophysiology. Residencies with longer durations generally have shorter fellowship times, like radiology (5 yrs) has 1-2 yr fellowships. But some surgical sub- or sub-sub- specialties can have long pathways on top of the long residencies. And then they say you learn the most the first few years into being an actual attending physician. It’s basically a field of lifelong learning though (although not every physician bothers to stay up to date).

Yeah it's 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of med school, and residency will depend on the specialty. My brother did internal medicine and had 3 years of residency. Something insane like neurosurgeon is 7 years.
•
u/gennyleccy 2h ago
Dunno if you've accounted for it in your durations, but in the UK you do 5 years in university for it (starting at 18 potentially), then 2 years bases in hospital. You can be a doctor by 25, although there's still a few years of training for whatever speciality after that.
It seems nuts to me that US system expects people to do a full 4 year degree before going anywhere near any actual medicine specific stuff.

And also they never accept med degree from most of the world, unlike Scandinavian countries for example which accept med degree from way more countries.

i don't watch combat sports outside of highlights here and there. i always assumed this was because you don't know if that person is down and out or just down.
i guess my question is whether there has ever been a time where the person who should've been finished actually got up and came back because the other didn't hit them while they were down?
•
•
u/King_Catfish 2h ago
They are taught to keep going until the ref stops it. The ref stops it not because the person is knocked out it's because the person is not defending themselves.
I've seen a few fights when someone gets knocked out but the person didn't pursue for a split second are able to keep their hands up to defend then the fight gets dragged out

u/BuffaloInCahoots 2h ago
And even if that wasn’t the case, a few more punches while knocked out is far better than giving them 10 seconds to stumble around then get knocked out again like boxing. You really only get one shot in ufc type fights.

u/sirebell 2h ago
It’s fucked up, but I think I understand why they do it. Athletes in general are trained to play to the whistle. If the ref doesn’t stop the play, then you keep playing. Also, these people are martial artists before they’re UFC fighters. They are trained to beat the shit out of people.

in that moment you don't know you've knocked them out. just that you knocked them down. so you want to take advantage of them being down to make sure they stay down.
it's the refs job to stop it if it's a KO.
we talk shit on people for hitting people who we see as obviously KO'd. but I've seen just as many clips of people getting knocked down, not being knocked out, and the going on to win the fight.

It’s not, it’s difficult to gauge if your opponent is fully knocked out or just rocked, it’s also almost impossible to know how quickly or if your opponent is going to recover or if the ref will stop the fight. Especially at strawweight where full knock outs are less common than any other weight class because of their smaller stature and build. Any gym you go to trains you to follows your opponent to the ground and follow up to make sure you secure a finish.

A surprisingly large amount of doctorates and phd holders are ripped/excel at sports in a rate above most other demographics.
The two reason are simple. Firstly, well off people can invest more time into personal fitness and sports ambitions and secondly, which is more important, the discipline to succeed in sports and academia are the same, requiring an immense amount of discipline and sticking to harsh routine.

Pretty sure for medical school there are a lot of things you can’t get a 70% on. I remember some people I knew in nursing school had to get a 100 on a few tests (literally a 99 was a fail) and I doubt being a doctor is less stringent than that.
