1 00:00:40,917 --> 00:00:46,708 Today, August 10, 1945, I have to leave Unit 731 2 00:00:47,250 --> 00:00:52,083 I dedicated my life to this work as a freelance medical nurse for several years 3 00:00:52,667 --> 00:00:55,333 We had to make a hasty retreat 4 00:00:55,542 --> 00:00:58,500 to humiliate The command is broken 5 00:00:59,208 --> 00:01:04,167 Why did everything happen like this? Who is the answer? 6 00:01:04,792 --> 00:01:10,417 The emperor had publicly said that he is not God, he is an ordinary person 7 00:01:10,917 --> 00:01:16,417 Hiroshima and Nagasaki are completely destroyed and Tokyo is also hot 8 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,625 Japan surrendered, even though it was fully prepared for war 9 00:01:23,208 --> 00:01:26,833 The gods vented their anger on the empire 10 00:01:27,042 --> 00:01:30,583 The dream of a great East Asia was forever shattered 11 00:01:31,250 --> 00:01:32,792 forever 12 00:01:33,708 --> 00:01:37,167 However, I remember why we were doing those things 13 00:01:37,542 --> 00:01:40,458 All that sacrifice was in vain 14 00:01:46,208 --> 00:01:51,125 There was a big secret there. If it is an unauthorized Japanese plane 15 00:01:51,417 --> 00:01:57,167 Or even a soldier would pass through that area 16 00:01:57,792 --> 00:02:02,167 The pilot immediately returned to the ground and killed him without trial 17 00:02:03,125 --> 00:02:06,542 Any aircraft that was above the area of Unit 731 18 00:02:06,750 --> 00:02:10,542 It didn't matter where it came from or what its mission was, it had to be shot down and its crew destroyed. 19 00:02:10,750 --> 00:02:13,666 During the war, several American planes that 20 00:02:13,667 --> 00:02:16,333 Taking supplies for the Soviets would make them disappear in that area 21 00:02:22,125 --> 00:02:28,833 At least, in the documents that I had the opportunity to see, this happened 22 00:13:18,542 --> 00:13:21,958 This is Khabarovsk, over 100 years old and nothing has changed 23 00:13:22,208 --> 00:13:26,042 It is a city for asylum seekers and exiles, which is the last border 24 00:13:26,250 --> 00:13:27,833 It is located in the far east of the Russian Empire 25 00:13:28,125 --> 00:13:31,417 This remote borderline near the heart of Asia is where the routes 26 00:13:31,625 --> 00:13:34,333 They come from Japan, Korea, China and Manchuria 27 00:13:35,208 --> 00:13:37,750 Russia had stationed its Russian Manchurian army here 28 00:13:37,958 --> 00:13:40,375 He had a violent conflict with the Japanese army 29 00:13:40,583 --> 00:13:42,708 Far East control head 30 00:13:42,917 --> 00:13:45,375 Russo-Japanese War, which Japan started 31 00:13:45,583 --> 00:13:48,249 It started with the support of America and England 32 00:13:48,250 --> 00:13:51,833 The emperor's fleet destroyed the Russian warships in the sea 33 00:13:52,042 --> 00:13:56,083 And on land, the Russian army was defeated by Japan in the Battle of Mukden 34 00:13:56,625 --> 00:14:00,375 Russia lost about 270 thousand people in that war 35 00:14:00,583 --> 00:14:04,250 The victory in this first major war of the 20th century belonged to Japan 36 00:14:04,458 --> 00:14:07,292 Even though both sides have almost the same number of casualties 37 00:14:18,792 --> 00:14:21,417 A person can overcome mistakes and weaknesses 38 00:14:21,875 --> 00:14:23,707 the government of the Russian kingdom to use for its own benefit 39 00:14:23,708 --> 00:14:28,457 His evil genius made him rise from the dark and mindless mass of society 40 00:14:28,458 --> 00:14:31,750 and destroy the imperial system to build his own system 41 00:14:32,667 --> 00:14:36,417 The revolution that the Bolsheviks had in mind happened 42 00:14:40,583 --> 00:14:43,333 This is a building in the center of Khabarovsk 43 00:14:43,542 --> 00:14:45,375 House of Russian army officers 44 00:14:45,667 --> 00:14:49,500 It is important for our story and it will be shown again in this movie 45 00:14:50,750 --> 00:14:54,333 Its memorial plaque tells the readers that this is the same building 46 00:14:54,542 --> 00:14:58,333 December 25, 1917, the entire Far East region 47 00:14:58,542 --> 00:15:00,750 It was declared under Soviet rule 48 00:15:00,958 --> 00:15:03,458 But Japan could not tolerate the reds 49 00:15:03,667 --> 00:15:05,666 who wanted the virus of communism 50 00:15:05,667 --> 00:15:07,875 broadcast in the world, as their closest neighbor 51 00:15:08,083 --> 00:15:12,417 The Japanese army arrived in Vladivostok on April 5, 1918 52 00:15:12,625 --> 00:15:16,875 With the support of America, Great Britain and former tsarist army officers 53 00:15:17,083 --> 00:15:21,083 The main cities of the Soviet Union were quickly occupied 54 00:15:21,292 --> 00:15:25,667 Soon the British, American, Italian and French forces joined the attackers 55 00:15:25,875 --> 00:15:30,958 The 75,000 Japanese army began to liberate the Far East 56 00:15:31,167 --> 00:15:35,125 from the disease of communism with the execution of many supporters of the red ideology 57 00:15:35,333 --> 00:15:37,250 They worked very carefully 58 00:15:37,542 --> 00:15:43,292 However, in the early 1920s, the United States, Great Britain, and France withdrew from the Soviet Union 59 00:15:43,500 --> 00:15:46,125 And the Japanese, who saw themselves alone 60 00:15:46,333 --> 00:15:50,167 Two more years of trying to overcome communist prejudices 61 00:15:50,375 --> 00:15:51,583 Their attempt failed 62 00:15:55,625 --> 00:15:59,750 I was born in Harbin, or rather in the suburbs 63 00:16:05,125 --> 00:16:10,083 Where steamboats were repaired 64 00:16:11,250 --> 00:16:17,292 I was in a suburban school 65 00:16:17,500 --> 00:16:22,333 Until I went to the city 66 00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:34,083 I am in the fifth year of study 67 00:16:35,500 --> 00:16:41,208 I finished the seventh grade 68 00:16:42,750 --> 00:16:50,708 And I went to the "fourth middle school" 69 00:16:51,958 --> 00:16:57,000 As the Japanese called it 70 00:16:57,958 --> 00:17:02,167 Early 1930s, open hostility between the Chinese and the Japanese 71 00:17:02,375 --> 00:17:06,583 It would cause armed conflicts to start at any moment and with the slightest excuse 72 00:17:07,125 --> 00:17:09,500 An example of this happened after an explosion 73 00:17:09,708 --> 00:17:11,542 On the South Manchurian Railway 74 00:17:11,750 --> 00:17:14,958 The night of September 18, 1931 75 00:17:15,167 --> 00:17:18,042 The Kwanton army immediately began to attack 76 00:17:18,250 --> 00:17:20,958 and took Chinese cities one by one 77 00:17:49,292 --> 00:17:56,708 I was 8 years old when the Japanese came to Harbin in 1931 78 00:18:05,167 --> 00:18:10,750 The only thing I remember is that a Japanese soldier gave me sweets 79 00:18:11,333 --> 00:18:13,250 I remember him 80 00:18:19,292 --> 00:18:21,917 What changed after that? 81 00:18:22,375 --> 00:18:25,875 All the Chinese warriors fled 82 00:18:26,333 --> 00:18:30,875 Only two Japanese armies were needed to capture Manchuria 83 00:18:31,083 --> 00:18:34,750 The Chinese have millions of soldiers 84 00:18:35,500 --> 00:18:38,875 All of them immediately dropped their weapons 85 00:18:39,083 --> 00:18:42,542 Changing their military clothes and disappearing 86 00:18:43,458 --> 00:18:51,208 Then the Japanese sorted everything out, at least in Harbin 87 00:18:52,792 --> 00:18:58,000 All street crimes were stopped 88 00:18:58,208 --> 00:19:02,542 You are very involved in this work 89 00:19:13,708 --> 00:19:18,625 They quickly gathered all the thugs 90 00:19:18,917 --> 00:19:24,333 and sending them to strengthen the defense lines 91 00:19:24,792 --> 00:19:30,417 No one came back alive 92 00:19:31,417 --> 00:19:36,792 These things happened in Manchuria 93 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,832 When the fortifications are finished, they 94 00:19:39,833 --> 00:19:42,625 Shooting like this so that the news does not spread 95 00:19:43,292 --> 00:19:47,958 The Japanese have been familiar with burning the dead for a long time 96 00:19:49,208 --> 00:19:51,833 The bodies were burned and that was it 97 00:19:52,083 --> 00:19:56,083 We met such a group of Chinese prisoners 98 00:19:56,333 --> 00:19:59,750 Around 1943 or 1944, I don't remember the exact date 99 00:20:00,208 --> 00:20:04,208 Sending us for "sacrificing work" 100 00:20:04,833 --> 00:20:09,792 We were supposed to build a mountain road to the Amur River 101 00:20:14,292 --> 00:20:17,042 And we used to knock out two or three times 102 00:20:17,417 --> 00:20:21,041 Let's take a look across the river, to the Soviet side 103 00:20:21,042 --> 00:20:24,458 Chinese embrace 104 00:20:24,667 --> 00:20:28,792 Working on another building 105 00:20:30,958 --> 00:20:35,833 Well, of course, after the construction, there is no place to stay 106 00:20:44,875 --> 00:20:49,042 After I finished middle school, I studied at the Faculty of Electrical Mechanics 107 00:20:49,625 --> 00:20:53,541 North Manchuria University. Two faculties 108 00:20:53,542 --> 00:20:57,083 It was there, that one was economy 109 00:20:58,083 --> 00:21:02,166 I studied there for half a year 110 00:21:02,167 --> 00:21:06,000 I got a scholarship and studied for another year 111 00:21:07,167 --> 00:21:15,083 As soon as I finished my work, I saw an advertisement that said 112 00:21:21,333 --> 00:21:29,292 "We need a Russian student to enroll in the medical university" 113 00:21:30,375 --> 00:21:36,625 As you know, being a doctor, you have a busy life 114 00:21:36,917 --> 00:21:43,375 If I were an engineer 115 00:21:44,208 --> 00:21:49,792 There was no guarantee for employment 116 00:21:50,333 --> 00:21:54,833 But it was not such a problem for the doctor 117 00:22:00,583 --> 00:22:05,917 It is natural that everyone pours there 118 00:22:06,542 --> 00:22:14,500 Kelly was a candidate 119 00:22:19,750 --> 00:22:25,667 But only four of them could 120 00:22:27,167 --> 00:22:31,125 I was one of them 121 00:22:31,917 --> 00:22:37,250 1938: Japan did not tolerate Soviet ideology 122 00:22:37,458 --> 00:22:40,167 And he did not want to tolerate communism in the Far East 123 00:22:40,375 --> 00:22:43,375 He captured two points near the borders of China and Korea 124 00:22:43,667 --> 00:22:46,083 This was the beginning of the war 125 00:22:46,292 --> 00:22:48,708 It became known as the Battle of Lake Khasan 126 00:22:48,917 --> 00:22:51,292 August 9 of the same year 127 00:22:51,500 --> 00:22:53,917 The Soviet tank army forced the Japanese to retreat 128 00:22:54,125 --> 00:22:57,583 By the 11th of August, all military conflicts had ended 129 00:22:57,792 --> 00:23:00,292 Japan suffered its first unexpected defeat 130 00:23:25,042 --> 00:23:27,625 But the next year, the Japanese 131 00:23:27,833 --> 00:23:30,875 Coming to the territory of the Republic of Mongolia, near the river Khalkhin-Gol 132 00:23:31,083 --> 00:23:35,083 The Soviet and Mongolian armies entered into a great conflict together 133 00:23:35,292 --> 00:23:39,417 By becoming Japan, which lasted from July 2nd to September 15th 134 00:23:39,917 --> 00:23:42,041 This war brought another defeat to Japan 135 00:23:42,042 --> 00:23:45,083 And 61 thousand people were killed or injured 136 00:23:45,458 --> 00:23:48,625 The great empire realized that it was running low in war 137 00:23:48,833 --> 00:23:51,833 with the larger forces of Bolshevik Russia 138 00:23:58,250 --> 00:24:00,374 Although Japan was still friends with America 139 00:24:00,375 --> 00:24:02,792 But little by little, the distance was falling between them 140 00:24:03,333 --> 00:24:06,875 The great empire of Japan did not want to suffer another bitter defeat 141 00:24:07,083 --> 00:24:10,417 And with determination, he strengthened his military force 142 00:24:57,792 --> 00:25:01,792 Japan was worried that since the early 30s 143 00:25:02,042 --> 00:25:05,542 Germany and the Soviet Union are united 144 00:25:05,750 --> 00:25:08,870 Constantly researching the most dangerous type of weapon 145 00:25:09,042 --> 00:25:11,583 Chemical and biological 146 00:25:34,375 --> 00:25:37,125 The Soviet Union stealthily since the 1920s 147 00:25:37,333 --> 00:25:39,667 It bred deadly viruses 148 00:25:39,875 --> 00:25:43,750 They tried these on criminals, dissidents and people with mental illness 149 00:25:43,958 --> 00:25:46,667 that there were always many in the Soviet Union 150 00:25:47,042 --> 00:25:49,375 Germany also secretly has disabled people 151 00:25:49,583 --> 00:25:51,583 He killed physically and mentally with poisonous gas 152 00:25:51,792 --> 00:25:54,708 Patients of many psychiatric hospitals in Germany 153 00:25:54,917 --> 00:25:57,458 Being a victim of deadly experiments with chemical weapons 154 00:25:57,667 --> 00:26:00,666 The Soviets were trying to do a total surgical experiment 155 00:26:00,667 --> 00:26:02,875 and biological on the human body, to the Marxist-Leninist goal 156 00:26:03,083 --> 00:26:07,042 Come to the ideal world of the future 157 00:26:07,583 --> 00:26:10,083 Communist military organ transplant 158 00:26:10,292 --> 00:26:12,583 And they did experiments on human brain and blood 159 00:28:07,833 --> 00:28:10,417 Although these investigations are very secret 160 00:28:10,625 --> 00:28:12,333 They could not attract the attention of Japan 161 00:28:12,542 --> 00:28:15,167 Early 1930s, Shiro Ishii 162 00:28:15,500 --> 00:28:17,667 A Japanese colonel and bacteriologist 163 00:28:17,875 --> 00:28:19,333 The results of his journey through the best bacteriological laboratories in Russia 164 00:28:19,542 --> 00:28:21,999 Italy, Germany and France reported to the military department 165 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,833 He said that the research to make biological weapons 166 00:28:25,333 --> 00:28:28,833 It has been done in Europe, especially in Germany 167 00:28:29,042 --> 00:28:31,625 He stressed that if Japan research 168 00:28:31,833 --> 00:28:34,375 Do not start anything in this field 169 00:28:34,583 --> 00:28:37,333 It may lag behind 170 00:28:37,542 --> 00:28:39,583 Ishii also pointed out that in light of this 171 00:28:39,792 --> 00:28:42,583 Japan's natural resources were very few 172 00:28:42,875 --> 00:28:45,249 He needed cheap but powerful weapons 173 00:28:45,250 --> 00:28:48,583 to equalize his chances in the war with industrialized countries 174 00:28:48,792 --> 00:28:50,875 His speech was very impressive 175 00:28:51,125 --> 00:28:54,416 1932, the construction of the main Kwanton army base 176 00:28:54,417 --> 00:28:56,458 For water distribution and preventive measures 177 00:28:56,958 --> 00:28:58,957 Near Pinfan village 178 00:28:58,958 --> 00:29:03,375 Southeast of Harbin, which is now a city in Manjurigu Country, began 179 00:29:03,583 --> 00:29:08,708 This was actually a secret military base that is now known as Unit 731 180 00:29:24,083 --> 00:29:26,625 He was called "Kamo Butai" 181 00:29:27,292 --> 00:29:29,625 "Wild Goose Bunch" 182 00:31:19,625 --> 00:31:22,500 It was a square building 183 00:31:23,333 --> 00:31:26,250 which had a two-story prison inside 184 00:31:26,542 --> 00:31:28,042 It had 4 floors 185 00:31:28,417 --> 00:31:33,417 The entrance to the prison was underground 186 00:31:51,417 --> 00:31:53,458 Around this camp 187 00:31:55,583 --> 00:31:59,458 It was an electric fence 188 00:32:00,500 --> 00:32:03,792 and foreign region 189 00:32:04,292 --> 00:32:06,292 Second 190 00:32:06,750 --> 00:32:11,667 Everything was under military supervision 191 00:32:35,333 --> 00:32:39,958 It should be about Soviet citizens 192 00:32:40,333 --> 00:32:44,208 And the immigrants you are sympathetic to, you remain silent 193 00:32:44,583 --> 00:32:47,583 Otherwise you would be stuck 194 00:32:47,833 --> 00:32:52,292 And as a test material, taking the same camp 195 00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:55,792 It was very serious 196 00:32:56,042 --> 00:33:01,875 That's why you should be careful with your tongue 197 00:33:17,667 --> 00:33:19,750 Both Chinese and Russians came to the city and disappeared 198 00:33:20,208 --> 00:33:25,333 You could have reported it to the police, but it would have

It burns at 1500 degrees 397 01:52:38,500 --> 01:52:42,500 Even the smallest drop can cause serious damage to the skin 398 01:52:43,042 --> 01:52:47,125 They go straight through clothes and flesh and re-ignite themselves again and again. 399 01:52:47,375 --> 01:52:50,375 After the burning of phosphorus is extinguished 400 01:52:51,042 --> 01:52:55,542 A yellowish-white flame appears during burning, with a lot of white smoke 401 01:52:56,333 --> 01:52:59,042 Have you ever seen how a person burns? 402 01:55:48,792 --> 01:55:52,583 In the groups of Okamoto and Ishikawa, leprosy bacteria 403 01:55:52,792 --> 01:55:56,750 and Trichomonas are bred to infect adultery 404 01:55:57,292 --> 01:56:02,042 Shiro Ishii was very interested in insects as the cause of various diseases 405 01:56:06,667 --> 01:56:09,374 And well, all the most dangerous methods 406 01:56:09,375 --> 01:56:11,583 To contaminate the act 407 01:56:12,875 --> 01:56:16,333 Sometimes the results are very ordinary and sometimes 408 01:56:16,542 --> 01:56:20,333 The obtained effect was considered extremely successful 409 01:56:21,542 --> 01:56:24,458 But it was always hard to see them 410 02:00:58,708 --> 02:01:03,125 Dear mom!

Such incidents happened in the unit 429 02:14:34,419 --> 02:14:37,419 They are very few, but they happen 430 02:23:59,544 --> 02:24:02,460 Japanese military officials were following the developments closely 431 02:24:02,669 --> 02:24:05,169 German military campaign against the Soviet Union 432 02:24:05,377 --> 02:24:08,669 And the failures due to the unexpected cold in Russia 433 02:24:08,877 --> 02:24:10,835 He ignored what had happened 434 02:24:11,419 --> 02:24:14,252 The Japanese are very interested in this possibility 435 02:24:14,460 --> 02:24:18,502 to make a way to protect against temperatures below minus 70 degrees Celsius 436 02:24:18,710 --> 02:24:22,835 For this reason, freezing tests were held in Unit 731 437 02:24:23,252 --> 02:24:26,251 Start building a special room with low temperature 438 02:24:26,252 --> 02:24:29,419 and ice storms are created artificially 439 02:24:30,002 --> 02:24:31,919 Before construction is finished, tests 440 02:24:32,127 --> 02:24:34,335 They were done outdoors in winter 441 02:24:42,335 --> 02:24:45,793 Yoshimura Hisato was in charge of the freezing experiments 442 02:24:45,794 --> 02:24:50,294 As a scientist, he was first of all interested in the reaction of capillaries to cold 443 02:24:50,502 --> 02:24:54,460 This is the reaction of the end organs to the cold 444 02:24:54,960 --> 02:24:58,919 He also studied the reaction of non-Japanese people to the cold 445 02:24:59,294 --> 02:25:03,627 After the war ended, he became one of Japan's famous scientists 446 02:25:03,835 --> 02:25:07,627 And on April 29, 1978, the emperor's birthday 447 02:25:07,835 --> 02:25:10,919 A sign of the shining sun from the minister 448 02:25:11,127 --> 02:25:14,085 Yoshimore education for 449 02:33:57,669 --> 02:34:02,127 Freezing tests were done every year in the coldest months 450 02:34:02,335 --> 02:34:05,669 November, January and February 451 02:34:06,044 --> 02:34:10,544 The temperature reached minus 40 degrees at that time 452 02:34:10,752 --> 02:34:15,335 Usually, people are taken out in the cold around 11 pm 453 02:34:15,544 --> 02:34:19,419 And they forced them to put their hands in a barrel of cold water 454 02:34:19,627 --> 02:34:23,543 Then they forced them to take out their wet hands 455 02:34:23,544 --> 02:34:26,919 And they are in the cold for a long time 456 02:34:27,419 --> 02:34:31,002 Their skin first turned white, then red 457 02:34:31,210 --> 02:34:34,835 Purple and full of blisters 458 02:34:35,710 --> 02:34:38,710 After that, it would turn red to black 459 02:34:39,002 --> 02:34:43,127 And when it finally froze, it turned completely black 460 02:34:43,335 --> 02:34:47,710 The skin and muscles became stiff and the extremities became paralyzed 461 02:34:47,919 --> 02:34:50,627 Beating frozen hands with a stick 462 02:34:50,835 --> 02:34:53,252 Give the sound of wood to wood 463 02:34:54,419 --> 02:35:01,085 If a person still felt pain, it means that the frostbite was not complete 464 02:43:21,669 --> 02:43:24,001 After making sure the meat is completely dead 465 02:43:24,002 --> 02:43:27,419 Yoshimura's subjects return to warmer conditions 466 02:43:28,002 --> 02:43:31,252 Then your hands 467 02:43:31,460 --> 02:43:34,252 The water temperature gradually increased and changes 468 02:43:34,460 --> 02:43:36,877 It was seen in the state of their end organs 469 02:43:37,085 --> 02:43:41,126 It was necessary for them to find the optimal temperature and the right time for recovery 470 02:43:41,127 --> 02:43:43,626 They also react to 471 02:43:43,627 --> 02:43:46,335 Asians and Europeans are interested in similar experiments 472 02:44:17,002 --> 02:44:19,626 The regime and conditions of the experiments were changed 473 02:44:19,627 --> 02:44:22,335 to obtain the largest amount of data 474 02:44:22,835 --> 02:44:26,252 Realizing that if you put your hands in very hot water 475 02:44:26,460 --> 02:44:30,419 All the flesh immediately fell off and only bare bones remained 476 02:44:46,835 --> 02:44:54,169 As for the freezing tests... they're done 477 02:44:55,044 --> 02:45:02,835 for what In order to find a drug that protects the soldiers of the Japanese army 478 02:45:03,044 --> 02:45:07,460 That was why 479 02:45:07,835 --> 02:45:15,544 That's why they freeze their hands and feet 480 02:46:34,502 --> 02:46:39,377 I saw some experimental subjects of frostbite in the prison laboratory 481 02:46:39,585 --> 02:46:42,210 Many of them have no fingers 482 02:46:42,419 --> 02:46:47,210 Others have completely black hands and feet with bare bones instead of fingers 483 02:46:48,085 --> 02:46:52,710 Whenever the meat was unsuccessfully removed from the frozen state, it was separated from the bones 484 02:46:53,002 --> 02:46:58,627 There was no way to save the subject's life other than amputation 485 02:49:54,544 --> 02:49:58,294 They have an outdoor shooting range 486 02:49:58,960 --> 02:50:02,585 which was surrounded by a relatively high embankment 487 02:50:02,794 --> 02:50:07,669 Vertical metal columns were scattered inside 488 02:50:08,002 --> 02:50:10,835 Subjects were tied to these columns 489 02:50:11,044 --> 02:50:15,419 And the bomb was planted in the center 490 02:50:15,627 --> 02:50:23,002 which would explode with an electric shock 491 02:50:26,835 --> 02:50:31,377 Shrapnel was scattered everywhere 492 02:50:31,585 --> 02:50:34,919 and eating the subjects 493 02:50:35,210 --> 02:50:40,669 Well, they would return them to the laboratory and observe them 494 02:50:40,877 --> 02:50:45,210 How many people are infected, how bad and so on 495 02:50:58,627 --> 02:51:02,002 Plague usually with sudden and severe shaking 496 02:51:02,210 --> 02:51:05,377 And the rapid increase in body temperature up to 38 degrees and above shows itself 497 02:51:05,794 --> 02:51:09,835 The incubation period may last from a few hours to a few days 498 02:51:10,210 --> 02:51:13,252 Common symptoms include chills turning to fever 499 02:51:13,460 --> 02:51:16,669 Severe headache and dizziness, sudden weakness 500 02:51:16,877 --> 02:51:19,960 Insomnia, chest pain and muscle cramps 501 02:51:20,169 --> 02:51:24,294 Nausea and vomiting sometimes 502 02:53:30,710 --> 02:53:33,794 His face is bruised, with sharp lines and scars 503 02:53:34,002 --> 02:53:36,627 Sometimes there is a look of panic on his face 504 02:53:36,835 --> 02:53:40,502 His skin is hot and dry. It may also bleed 505 02:53:40,710 --> 02:53:43,260 They turn dark red, that's why 506 02:53:43,294 --> 02:53:46,044 They called the plague 507 02:53:46,627 --> 02:53:52,419 Very sick people vomit blood that looks like thick coffee grounds 508 02:54:07,544 --> 02:54:11,335 Sometimes they did electricity sensitivity tests 509 02:54:11,752 --> 02:54:15,294 some of it 510 02:54:15,502 --> 02:54:18,377 They connected up to 20,000 volts of electricity 511 02:54:19,044 --> 02:54:22,669 They gradually increased the intensity of the electricity 512 02:54:23,085 --> 02:54:26,002 And if they closed one tightly 513 02:54:26,210 --> 02:54:28,794 Then the chair would fall with it 514 02:54:29,085 --> 02:54:34,419 Those who survived, they performed live dissection or poison injection 515 02:54:37,419 --> 02:54:40,918 One becomes emotional; Your heart burns for these people only when 516 02:54:40,919 --> 02:54:44,210 You do the first two or three live dissections 517 02:54:44,794 --> 02:54:48,169 After that, he will become jealous and numb 518 02:54:48,377 --> 02:54:52,919 And practically you don't feel anything and just do your job 519 02:54:53,127 --> 02:54:56,085 I think it's better this way 520 02:54:56,710 --> 02:55:00,210 At that time, treating the plague was a very difficult task 521 02:55:00,419 --> 02:55:02,210 Various chemicals were recommended 522 02:55:02,419 --> 02:55:06,918 Carbolic acid, formaldehyde, iodine and bacteriophage 523 02:55:06,919 --> 02:55:10,794 But it turned out that they have no effect or very little effect 524 02:55:11,002 --> 02:55:14,294 Death from the plague was almost a hundred percent certain 525 02:55:14,502 --> 02:55:20,002 But in unit 731, a lot of work had been done to make anti-plague serum 526 02:58:12,210 --> 02:58:16,335 Everything there was based on the scientific method 527 02:58:16,710 --> 02:58:19,710 Because you are 528 02:58:19,919 --> 02:58:25,794 He was a first class microbiologist. He studied in Germany 529 02:58:26,002 --> 02:58:28,044 And then I got better than Germany 530 02:58:28,252 --> 02:58:32,377 That's why he was interested in very deep things 531 02:58:32,585 --> 02:58:36,085 How does a person react? How does his body react? 532 02:58:36,294 --> 02:58:44,127 Why did Japanese medicine advance so much after the war? 533 02:58:44,419 --> 02:58:50,210 Because they have access to the data.
