Hey guys, it's Peter once again in your wait, wait, wait feed.

I am so pleased to present to you another episode of how to do everything by wait,

wait, wait producers, Ian and Mike.

Now, remember, you can only get these episodes of how to do everything in our feed for a

short while.

So if you love the kind of mysteries that Mike and Ian are revealing, make sure you subscribe to how to do everything at their own feed.

Thanks.

Andrea is an athletic trainer.

She wrote into us with a technique for stopping a nosebleed, something we'd never heard of.

Andrea, what's going on here?

So there's this trend in athletic

training called the heel thump for stopping nosebleeds. And basically you figure out which

nostril the patient is bleeding from and then either have them lay down and like whack the bottom of

the opposite heel with your hand or you have them stand up and you have them stomp on that opposite heel on the ground.

I don't know how it works.

Some athletic trainers really swear by it.

And I've actually tried it once or twice.

It works about 50, 60% of the time for me.

Some people, like I said, swear by it.

But nobody really knows like how it works.

You said it's called the heel thump.

Yeah.
