What if you have the Rarest Diseases?

Would you accept 1 billion dollars if you had to live with the world's rarest diseases for one year? In this video, we explore what would happen if you were forced to live with seven of the rarest and most devastating medical conditions at the same time. From becoming allergic to water to slowly turning your muscles into bone, losing the ability to sleep forever, rapidly aging, developing fatal brain diseases, and suffering multiple organ failure, each condition is terrifying on its own. But together, they create a level of suffering almost impossible to imagine. Featuring • Aquagenic Urticaria (Water Allergy) • Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) • Kuru • Fatal Familial Insomnia • Progeria • Alström Syndrome • Ribose 5 phosphate Isomerase Deficiency (RPID) This video explains the science behind each disease, how they affect the human body, why they are so rare, and what happens when all of them are combined into one nightmare scenario.
