An interesting video-but I don't agree with the guys comment about "who would want to have their temp taken in their colon,eww!!!" Yes, even though it may be considered gross by some- it is the most accurate method to take a temp- and having gotten many rectal temps as a toddler and young kid- as an adult age 43- it is the only way I take my temp even today-because it is the most accurate way to take a temp-and I use an old fashioned glass mecury filled thermometer- a digital doesn't feel the same way in my butt!
