Brief Summary
This ASMR video simulates a cranial nerve examination on a wooden mannequin. The examiner tests the mannequin's senses, reflexes, and cognitive abilities, noting its lack of reaction and unusual responses. The examiner concludes that the mannequin's cranial nerves are not functioning correctly, likely due to its wooden composition.

- Testing senses, reflexes, and cognitive abilities
- Conclusion: Cranial nerves not functioning correctly due to wooden composition
Initial Assessment
The video begins with the examiner performing a quick cranial nerve exam on the viewer, who is implied to be a wooden mannequin. The examiner notes the mannequin's lack of reaction to eye brushing and expresses concern about its cranial nerves. The examiner proceeds to test the mannequin's ability to feel touch on its face, squeezing it to see if it reacts, but there is no response.
Ear Examination
The examiner checks the mannequin's hearing by inspecting its ears, commenting on how small they are and using tools to open them up for a better look. The examiner then tests the mannequin's sense of touch by having it feel a tool and describe what it feels like. The examiner cleans the mannequin's ears with a tool, removing gunk from both ears.
Vision and Facial Numbness
The examiner checks the mannequin's temperature and asks if its vision is blurry or if it has any face numbness. The examiner notes that the mannequin's skin does not react to squeezing, indicating facial numbness. The examiner checks the mannequin's reaction to a tool near its eye, noting the lack of response and expressing concern about its cranial nerves.
Hair and Hearing Tests
The examiner tests the mannequin's ability to feel touch on its scalp and plays with a strand of its hair. The examiner then tests the mannequin's hearing by making sounds near its ears and asks if it can identify a bone. The examiner expresses worry about the mannequin's condition.
Cognitive and Motor Skills
The examiner asks the mannequin to repeat words after them, such as "Apple Maps" and "Google Maps". The examiner then asks the mannequin to follow either "Apple Maps" or "Google Maps" with its eyes only. The examiner asks the mannequin if it understands what they are saying, but the mannequin is unsure.
Temperature and Physical Examination
The examiner attempts to check the mannequin's temperature by feeling its forehead and nose, but is unsure of the result. The examiner asks the mannequin to stand up and raise its hands, then instructs it to sway. The examiner tests the mannequin's arm strength and coordination.
Torso and Reflex Examination
The examiner feels the mannequin's body, asking if anything hurts. The examiner notes that the mannequin sounds like it is made of wood when tapped. The examiner checks the mannequin's reflexes in its arms and legs, noting that they seem to work.
Latex and Taste Test
The examiner puts a latex glove over the mannequin's face and asks what it feels like. The examiner then performs a taste test, putting different flavours on the mannequin's tongue and asking it to identify them. The flavours include raspberry, apple, and blueberry.
Smell Test
The examiner tests the mannequin's sense of smell, first checking if it can breathe with its nose and mouth closed. The examiner then presents different scents, including one that should smell like roses and another that should smell like cheese, but the mannequin struggles to identify them. The examiner expresses frustration with the mannequin's inability to identify the smells.
Final Assessment and Departure
The examiner concludes that the mannequin's cranial nerves are not functioning correctly, likely because it is made of wood. The examiner states that they do not know what to do and tells the mannequin that it will have to leave. The examiner applies some paint to the mannequin's face and bids it farewell.
