How your body actually works
The strange machinery you’re made of, explained as a cartoon. Every claim has a source on screen.
What this is
Anatomy Follies is a YouTube channel about the inside of the human body. Each video takes one mechanism, the kind of thing no camera can film, and draws it so you can watch it happen. The drawings are silly on purpose; the facts are not. Every number comes from a primary source, cited with author and year in the video description.
We explain how the body works. We don’t give medical advice, and nothing here tells you what to take or what to do about your health.
