Transcript

This is my second cast. They put the first one on right after my surgery. And then they put this one on when I came in to take my initial cast off after six days. So this one's been on for a whole week. Okay. I'm nervous. I don't want to touch my nose. I don't like that. I don't like that. I'm gonna undo these. I'm gonna undo these. Look at like a satellite. But it's coming off. But it's coming off. Oh my god. I'm staring to panic. I'm gonna use some oil to take the tapes off. Fully crashed out after this.
