00:00
There are reports of various incidents of unintentional drowning of children,
00:05
which are even more dangerous to children.
00:09
Can you help me?
00:10
That's why this video of a child who was drowned by a thing.
00:15
It hurts!
00:16
It's not surprising that it has 7.2 million views already.
00:20
But what was it that drowned him so badly?
00:23
Can you help me?
00:24
I'm going there.
00:27
Dad, I can't swim.
00:31
Drink some water.
00:32
The poor child was actually drowned by a bubble gum.
00:35
What happened to him?
00:38
How about now?
00:39
Do you need to go to the doctor?
00:47
How do you know what you're eating?
00:53
Soaked?
00:54
Squeezed?
00:56
And even kicked?
00:58
I'm going to miss home.
01:00
In this video of 21 million views,
01:02
I showed how a food is prepared in the province.
01:07
Food is prepared in the middle of the forest.
01:09
In the middle of the rainforest.
01:11
And the way they use it is very primitive.
01:13
But they have learned it for hundreds of years.
01:15
Trial and error.
01:18
The people in the comment section seem curious.
01:20
What is this?
01:22
But what we learned is that
01:23
the root crop in the video needs to be prepared
01:26
before eating.
01:27
Because there is still a risk.
01:30
You won't be able to breathe.
01:31
The mouth of the person who ate it will just bubble.
01:35
Then the breathing will stop.
01:45
In Sablayan, Occidental Mindoro,
01:46
where this video was filmed,
01:49
do you know what root crop this is?
01:51
For us, sir, it's called Namok.
01:53
In Bicol, Namok.
01:55
Namok and Namik?
01:56
Namak.
01:57
In Bicol and Namik?
01:58
Namik.
01:59
And do you know how to prepare Namik?
02:00
Yes, sir.
02:01
Is it delicious?
02:02
It's delicious, sir.
02:03
We cook it with coconut milk.
02:04
You cook it with coconut milk?
02:05
Yes.
02:06
But you know, right?
02:07
When Namik is cooked and prepared,
02:08
it tastes good.
02:09
Yes, sir.
02:10
Do you know how to cook Namik?
02:11
No, sir.
02:12
We know how to cook it there
02:13
because my grandfather is from Catugubo.
02:16
Namik has a tuber or specialized storage stem
02:19
that goes under the soil
02:21
where its nutrients are stored.
02:23
Namik is poisonous when eaten raw
02:26
because of saponins,
02:27
a group of organic compounds
02:29
that have a bitter taste and smell.
02:31
It has cyanogenic compounds
02:33
that if eaten by humans,
02:35
can cause cyanide poisoning.
02:37
If it's cyanide,
02:38
the breathing will stop.
02:40
That's why it's deadly.
02:41
You won't be able to breathe.
02:43
Sometimes, you won't be able to breathe
02:44
because there's no oxygen.
02:45
You won't be able to breathe.
02:46
You won't be able to breathe
02:47
because there's no oxygen.
02:48
You won't be able to breathe
02:49
because there's no oxygen.
02:50
You won't be able to breathe
02:51
because there's no oxygen.
02:52
That's why it's deadly.
02:53
That's why it's deadly.
02:55
We met the video uploader, Romaline.
02:58
On her Facebook page, Romaline Vlogs,
03:01
she lives in the province
03:03
and lives with her fellow villagers.
03:05
We learned how to eat Namik or carrots
03:08
because we live in a field near the mountains.
03:12
When we were young,
03:13
when we were young,
03:14
this is what we used to eat
03:16
because we used to run out of rice.
03:20
They know that Namik can be poisonous.
03:23
There is a correct way to prepare
03:25
root crops like this.
03:27
Don't just look at it.
03:29
Try it.
03:38
Kamangha-mangha and kahangha-hangha.
03:40
Kamangha-mangha,
03:41
shared and communicated
03:42
in the interest of the online universe.
03:44
But why are these videos still viral?
03:46
Join me in learning the stories
03:48
behind these viral videos
03:50
and trending topics
03:51
here at
03:55
And it should be you too.
03:57
In this video,
03:58
it got 5.8 million views.
03:59
You can see a crying child
04:01
and a red mouthed lion.
04:02
What did you eat?
04:03
It looks like he ate a lot of pork rinds.
04:05
It's painful.
04:07
It's painful.
04:08
And he even drowned.
04:09
It's painful.
04:10
It's painful.
04:11
It's painful.
04:15
A huge shark
04:16
that was almost as big as a boat
04:18
was caught in this viral video
04:20
and got 1.8 million views.
04:22
But what kind of shark is this?
04:24
And why does it look like
04:25
it wants to swim
04:26
in the lower part of the sea?
04:28
We saw it.
04:29
It's a big shark.
04:31
It's as big as a boat.
04:34
In this video
04:35
that got 21 million views,
04:36
I showed how to feed
04:38
fruit root or root crop
04:40
that is called nami or carrot
04:42
before cooking and eating it.
04:44
It needs to squeeze its juice well
04:46
because it can be poisoned.
04:48
It has cyanogenic compounds
04:50
that when eaten by humans,
04:52
can cause thyroid poisoning.
04:54
You can't breathe anymore.
04:55
The mouth of the person who ate it
04:57
will just bubble
04:58
if it's wrong.
04:59
Then the breathing will stop.
05:01
They know
05:02
that nami can be poisoned.
05:05
That's why they do
05:06
a thorough process
05:07
before eating it.
05:09
They start by slicing it thinly.
05:11
There are holes
05:13
and plastic
05:14
with water
05:16
so that it can be soaked
05:18
for three days.
05:20
And we'll put
05:22
a piece of wood
05:24
so that the juice of the nami will come out
05:26
and the poisoned juice will come out.
05:31
After three days,
05:33
they'll put it in a sack or net.
05:37
They'll put it in rubbing water
05:41
and they'll tap it
05:43
so that the juice will come out.
05:50
They'll repeat the process
05:52
until the water is clear
05:54
that they're soaking.
05:56
They'll put it in a sack
05:57
so that it can be washed.
06:01
After one day
06:03
and one night,
06:05
they'll take it out
06:07
and we can cook it
06:09
and eat it.
06:12
It usually takes
06:13
three days
06:14
to peel it
06:15
before cooking it.
06:18
Now,
06:19
we'll stick it
06:20
around the pot
06:21
so that it can be cooked.
06:24
That's why we put it here
06:26
on the side
06:27
so that it won't burn
06:29
and cook evenly.
06:35
And then,
06:36
we'll put it on the fire
06:37
until it turns yellow.
06:40
Let's eat!
06:49
Delicious!
06:53
This has been learned
06:54
by many generations.
06:56
It's been done for hundreds of years.
06:58
If we're not sure
06:59
how to prepare a meal,
07:01
let's just avoid it.
07:02
We might die
07:03
or get poisoned.
07:04
There are also studies
07:05
published in the
07:06
Biomed Central Journal
07:08
that prove
07:09
that the process of
07:10
slicing,
07:12
peeling,
07:14
squeezing,
07:15
and drying
07:17
and steaming nami
07:18
is the right way
07:19
to remove
07:20
the serogenic compounds
07:21
of nami.
07:23
There is a correct way
07:24
to prepare
07:25
root crops
07:26
like this.
07:28
So,
07:29
if you don't know how,
07:31
don't try.
07:32
Ask around
07:33
or make sure
07:34
you know
07:35
how to prepare it.
07:36
Don't just
07:37
look at it.
07:38
Just try it.
07:39
Do you eat
07:40
cassava cake?
07:41
Do you know
07:42
that root crop cassava
07:43
or kamoting kahoy
07:44
is like nami.
07:45
And if it's eaten raw
07:46
or undercooked,
07:47
it can be poisonous.
07:49
There are cyanogenic glycosides
07:51
that become cyanide
07:52
when it melts in the body.
07:54
But because kamoting kahoy
07:55
is part of
07:56
our long history
07:58
as Filipinos,
07:59
it has been learned
08:00
by previous generations
08:01
how to save it
08:02
and prepare it.
08:04
And now,
08:05
this is one of the
08:06
popular Filipino breakfasts.
08:07
Let's go eat!
08:11
For our children,
08:13
cream!
08:14
We can see
08:15
that the boat is big.
08:18
The boat is big.
08:21
Why is there so much
08:22
pork liver?
08:23
It's painful.
08:24
It's painful.
08:25
And it's drowning.
08:27
No,
08:28
I don't want it.
08:32
I don't want it.
08:39
What if on your beach trip,
08:46
this is what you'll find?
08:53
I have a question for you.
08:54
Do you like going to the beach?
08:55
I don't know.
08:56
For example,
08:57
you're swimming at the beach
08:58
and you suddenly see this.
08:59
What will you do?
09:03
I'll run.
09:04
Run?
09:05
On the beach?
09:06
I don't remember.
09:07
What do you want to do in life?
09:09
I want to be successful
09:11
with my career.
09:13
Do you know how to swim?
09:15
Yes, I do.
09:16
What's the deadliest animal
09:17
on the beach?
09:19
Shark.
09:20
You go home
09:21
and you see this.
09:24
What will you do?
09:25
I'll probably go far.
09:26
How will you go far?
09:27
I mean, close to you?
09:30
I'll just pray
09:31
that it won't bite me.
09:36
In this video
09:37
that has 1.9 million views
09:39
and was uploaded by Arnold,
09:41
you'll see their ship
09:42
in Barangay Pandan,
09:43
Rial, Quezon.
09:45
There's a big surprise
09:46
that will visit you.
09:50
It's huge.
09:51
I've never seen
09:52
such a huge ship.
09:53
It's huge.
09:54
It's scary.
09:55
It's huge.
09:56
The ship is huge.
09:57
Even though great white sharks
09:58
or white sharks
09:59
can be seen
10:00
in cold waters
10:01
in Australia,
10:02
it's possible that
10:03
there's also one here.
10:04
It's not a shark
10:05
from Australia
10:06
but there's one here.
10:07
It's a cold water shark.
10:09
It might be sick
10:10
or it might die.
10:11
There's a point.
10:12
A lot of beached animals,
10:14
especially whales
10:15
and sea mammals,
10:18
when they're seen
10:19
on the beach,
10:20
it means that
10:21
it's sick
10:22
and it's about to die.
10:23
There's a shark
10:24
that's as big as a boat.
10:25
There's a boat
10:26
that's as big as a shark.
10:27
It's a philosopher.
10:28
It's kind, boss.
10:30
It can be kind
10:31
or it can't be kind.
10:32
It depends.
10:35
We asked a wild animal expert
10:37
about the video
10:39
to find out
10:40
if it's really a shark.
10:42
The video
10:43
shows that it's big.
10:44
Basically,
10:45
it's so big
10:46
compared to
10:47
the regular sharks
10:48
that I've seen.
10:49
Its underbelly
10:50
is white
10:52
and its back
10:53
is grayish
10:54
unlike
10:55
the great white.
10:56
Great white sharks
10:57
are considered
10:58
the world's largest
10:59
predatory fish.
11:00
They can grow up
11:01
to 6 meters
11:02
and they can be
11:03
as big as a bus
11:05
and they can weigh
11:06
up to 2,000 kilos.
11:08
Their teeth
11:09
are around 300.
11:10
You know a lot,
11:11
Kim.
11:12
And I hope
11:13
you do too.
11:14
And if there's a chance,
11:15
it's dangerous
11:16
for people
11:17
to be this close
11:18
to a shark.
11:20
It depends on
11:21
the person
11:22
if they panic
11:23
or react
11:24
to the situation
11:26
because
11:27
sharks
11:28
would sense
11:29
that they have
11:30
an ampullae of
11:31
larynx in their
11:32
snout
11:33
and they have
11:34
a natural line
11:35
that detects
11:36
vibrations.
11:37
So,
11:38
if they detect
11:39
that they're
11:40
on the panic mode,
11:41
they might attack.
11:44
But why does
11:45
the white shark
11:46
seem to be
11:47
stuck on a cliff?
11:50
It was really
11:51
swallowed
11:52
by the people
11:53
of the barangay.
11:56
Oh!
11:57
It's huge!
11:58
What happens
11:59
when sharks
12:00
meet people?
12:01
The shark
12:02
that was lost
12:03
to Arnold
12:04
also died
12:05
the day
12:06
he was found
12:07
by people.
12:09
Avoid
12:10
dynamite fishing
12:11
or blast fishing
12:12
because
12:13
it's bad
12:14
for the sea creatures.
12:16
Use the traditional
12:17
fishing.
12:18
If you're
12:19
swimming
12:20
and there are
12:21
sharks around you,
12:22
as much as possible
12:23
stay calm.
12:24
Swim
12:25
as natural
12:26
away.
12:27
Sometimes,
12:28
they venture
12:29
not only
12:30
in the deep
12:31
but even
12:32
near the shore.
12:33
And of course,
12:34
don't kill them
12:35
because
12:36
they're
12:37
very few.
12:40
In this kind of situation,
12:41
it's important
12:42
to fight
12:43
for the animals
12:44
to be taken
12:45
care of.
12:49
You know a lot,
12:50
Kim!
12:51
You know a lot,
12:52
Kim!
12:53
You know a lot,
12:54
too!
12:55
You seem to have
12:56
a lot of bubble gum.
12:57
It hurts!
12:58
It hurts
12:59
and he's drowning!
13:01
I don't want to!
13:11
The news
13:12
contained different
13:13
incidents of
13:14
unintentional
13:15
drowning.
13:16
Which is more
13:17
dangerous
13:18
for the children.
13:20
Help me!
13:21
That's why
13:22
a child who was swallowed by a thing.
13:25
It hurts!
13:27
It hurts?
13:28
It didn't take long for it to reach 7.2 million views.
13:31
But what was it that he swallowed that was so dangerous?
13:34
What did you swallow?
13:35
Bubble gum.
13:37
Dad, I'm not a kid anymore.
13:41
Did you drink water?
13:42
The poor kid was swallowed by bubble gum.
13:45
What happened to him?
13:47
What now? Do you need to go to the doctor?
13:53
Here in San Rafael, Iloilo, we met Hans who uploaded a viral video.
14:00
I'm Kay Kay's uncle.
14:02
And I'm the one he talked to in the video.
14:05
Because all's W, parents.
14:07
Kay Kay is a mother of a grandmother and her four-year-old uncle.
14:11
I took care of Kay Kay for one year and nine months.
14:15
As a grandmother, I love my grandson very much.
14:19
She's happy, naughty, and loves to eat Kay Kay.
14:24
But the naughty kid...
14:26
It hurts!
14:28
And the pain was replaced by crying in the video.
14:31
Kay Kay went with her grandfather to the store,
14:36
and Kay Kay bought bubble gum.
14:39
When we got home, Kay Kay suddenly started crying.
14:43
What did you swallow?
14:44
Bubble gum.
14:46
Bubble gum is not the first accident that a child swallowed.
14:50
Sometimes, she swallowed a watermelon seed.
14:53
Kay Kay shouldn't have swallowed a watermelon seed.
14:57
It doesn't grow or bear fruit inside.
15:00
Our grandmothers said the same thing.
15:02
But bubble gum is bigger than a watermelon seed and doesn't melt.
15:06
Is it safe when a person swallows it?
15:09
A few months ago, Kay Kay swallowed her favorite bubble gum,
15:13
which was filmed by Hans.
15:16
What did you eat?
15:18
Did you eat rice?
15:20
Did you drink water?
15:23
You look like you swallowed it.

You can see in the video that Kay Kay is saying
15:29
that she ate rice to make bubble gum.
15:32
Be careful, this may lead to anxiety to him.
15:35
I don't know if this content is helpful or good.
15:38
That's right.
15:40
The innocent is really cute, baby boy.
15:41
You know a lot, brother Kim.
15:44
Bubble gum contains four main ingredients.
15:47
Gum base, sweeteners, flavoring agents, and food color.
15:52
One of the well-known materials used in gum base is polysorbutene.
15:57
It is a rubbery material that is also used to make inner tubes or interiors.
16:01
It is mixed with plasticizers and other food-grade materials
16:05
that gives a chewy feel when chewed and the reason why it doesn't melt.
16:10
You look like you swallowed it, brother Kim.
16:15
Did you know that gum is one of the oldest confections in the world?
16:18
It was the first civilization to have it.
16:21
The first gum was made from the sap of the Podillia tree
16:24
that was swallowed by our ancestors.
16:26
It hurts.
16:28
Let's go back to Kay Kay.
16:30
How is she now?
16:33
For now, Kay Kay is okay.
16:36
Kay Kay is okay.
16:38
But we haven't seen her eating bubble gum.
16:43
Because I don't want to die.
16:51
If we step on bubble gum, it's hard to remove, right?
16:56
If it's inside our body, will it still stick?
16:59
Bubble gum is safe to eat.
17:02
Just don't eat too much.
17:03
It can block our intestines.
17:07
That's dangerous.
17:09
But if you eat a piece, it will just get dirty.
17:11
Because it won't melt when we chew it.
17:13
Other things should be taken care of.
17:16
Especially the bars or disc batteries.
17:19
Those are dangerous.
17:21
Experts advise that in situations like this,
17:23
children should be more careful in handling.
17:26
Do you want me to get you a doctor?
17:28
No, it's not painful.
17:30
It's not painful.
17:32
There will be ages when they will believe
17:35
what we are saying.
17:37
Especially when it comes to their parents or guardians,
17:41
they might have nightmares.
17:43
Or even as a grown-up,
17:47
they might be afraid of this.
17:50
You can't eat candy anymore.
17:53
You can't eat bubble gum anymore.
17:56
Perhaps be more supportive and consoling
17:58
rather than scaring the child.
18:01
Kaikai and his family members
18:04
will be more alert now.
18:06
Let's encourage these people
18:09
so that children will be more informed
18:11
and won't be trapped in the maze of fear and anxiety.
18:15
You have a lot of knowledge, brother Kim.
18:18
