CORRECTION: In the last drawing, I show the biceps brachii long head originating on the superior part of the scapula, but it's actual origin is the supraglenoid tubercle.
CORRECTION: At the end of the recap, I misspoke. The subscapularis causes *anterior* rotation, and the other rotator cuff muscles cause *posterior* rotation.

In this video, I describe the components of the shoulder and rotator cuff, including the bones, ligaments, and muscles.

Am I the only one who thinks that the ways other people (especially this fellow) teach about the bones of the human body, their joints, articulations etc are so fascinating and way better than the way it is taught in class by most professors (especially in Lab classes)

Just saw this video. I am 72 year old physician and I learned my anatomy in 1970! It’s absolutely amazing how things become simple with a beautifully created video demonstration.thanks 👍

This is the best, most interesting and most easiest to understand video I have ever watched on the shoulder.

[lucybrue]

What an amazing teacher you are!! I've returned to School at 65 years old and I can say this is the best video I've ever seen. Thank you for the great explanation!

[christopherebhabha]

You are the teacher I wish I hard in high school, that can talk to my neurons, not frustrate and leave them in shock😂…., I had PTSD trauma from being pushed to memorize too much, and pacing far ahead of my proper joyful assimilation of knowledge and my inborn genius, …but now, these days🎉🎉🎉🎉

I love how calm and slow he talks. It makes all these concepts feel so much less daunting. Also In general I would learn so much better from videos like this than I would in a lecture with soulless power point slides with burnt out teachers reading them as fast as possible. If i just went to school and just watched videos like this I would know so much more than I do in lecture. Like just show me movies and videos and have a teacher there if we have questions. As of now I cant focus in class and I learn 95% of the material at home by myself with quizlet and these types of videos. THANK YOU for this video

[reliosoff]

As always, a simply outstanding video. I have been practicing medicine for a long time, but I always learn a great deal when I watch these videos. Thanks very much for your excellent work!

[premedguy]

This guy is amazing. I want to cry I've watched so many videos and none are even close to as good as this. Everyone but you should quit at this.

[shyambhavi]

This gotta be the best video on shoulder joint! Thanks a lot

[Tabithapatrice]

I feel like it’s finally clicking. Thank you for your teaching style!

[luzbrito]

Explained so clearly and easier to understand!

[Tumba]

Your video on the human shoulder anatomy is incredibly informative! I really appreciate how clearly and precisely you explain each part, making it easy to understand. Your expertise in this area is truly impressive. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[motihemati]

Easy to understand while being so much complicated! THANKS 🎉

[muskaanpathak]

you have no clue how helping these videos are, thank you on behalf of millions like me who could not understand the pace and the way teachers taught us! all of them were good teachers but i think this is what we needed! thank you !

[ucyoga]

Much easier to understand, thanks for the explanation 🙏

[UserChris]

Oh man... I'm a Physiotherapist from class of 2015... And now I moved to Canada, preparing for my registration exam here.... I came to this video and oh my goodness... you're just so simple and still very clear idea. You made it so easy ❤
Thank you God bless u brother ...

[OneAccordFitness]

Love your lecture! Just straight to the point and clear.

[johnmacneill]

Very nice job Siebert. I think videos like this do more for humans than most visits to a doctor. Thank you for your hard work, hope the best for your site.

I’m a massage therapist and love your presentation on the shoulder. Thank you 🙏🏻
