Body fluids draining out of my body in a controlled manner. I mean, how cool is that? It's like looking out a plane window. It's something nature would not have us ever see, yet thanks to modern technology, we can, and we can do so perfectly safely. How cool is that?

I have no problem with bleeding and blood (as long as it isn't exiting a body in large amounts or pouring out from behind a door) but watching it fill the bag is just odd to me. It doesn't freak me out, by any means, but I have no desire to stare at it as it flows out. I don't really know why.
