Fantastic video! But one important thing you missed out about the intercostal muscles. There are 2 types: External intercostal muscles and Internal intercostal muscles, when you breathe in, only the EXTERNAL intercostal muscles contract, bringing the ribcage up and out. But when you breathe out, the INTERNAL intercostal muscles contract, bringing the ribcage down and in. Thank you for the great video really helped me.
