Phaw!! It's all the practice you get dealing with sliced and diced pachydermis. No other explanation needed!!
I will sign up for your med course sooner or later. (probably more soonerish than laterish)
Mayhap it is just a thing of adreniline and acting on impulse (not really getting time to think it all through).
But man when I have time, it so makes me queasy... And that scares me, that I couldn't do anything if the time came.
I will read your book natdscott. my wife, she has a library card and such!
Rhino, I so expected more from you... But on the same token, I expected nothing less. So you have THAT going for you. (in seriousness, it made sense. in the abstract, it's scarier than in the present)
fwiw, I am a party puker. I've done all sorts of (non gory blood stuff) with my kids... puke, is not one of them.
Like many I'm not squeamish to blood, gore with animals. Even blood gore with humans don't bother me. Needles, surgeries, broken bones are what get me the most. Needles and surgeries gross me out more than broken bones. I've tried getting over that, but it only got worse.
Same here. I think it's the thinking of "ouch that hurts" and then you, or at least I, start to almost feel it yourself. Kinda like how a husband can sometimes have a "sympathetic pregnancy."
For me that's the exactly how it feels. I remember in high school I went to watch my gf get her navel pierced, I had to lay down because I got nauseous and dizzy. Mainly because it felt like a needle in my navel, I get something similar with surgeries usually at a simple mention of them, or if I see in in a movie or TV.
I pierced mine myself, on my lunch hour. No blood, just lots of sweat, making it difficult to pinch the skin and continue pushing the needle through, and the skin was super tough trying to push out the other side.For me that's the exactly how it feels.

Damn Kid....McMod will chew you up and spit you out. (as long as you're not spitting up blood)

But stuff like drawing blood, or arterial spray, and I start focusing on my own heart pumping blood, and it gets louder in my head, and I get weaker in the knees as I feel the pressure of the blood in the veins... grosses me out.
What on God's Green Earth would possess you to do that?!!
Oy!
