This is truly fascinating. I am Irish and Rh negative. I have been to visit my family in Ireland several times.
I was looking at the thatch in some of the ancient construction. I looked up at my ceiling, which is made of palm. It has a similar appearance. I currently live in Mexico. My home consists of three cottages linked by a courtyard. The palm roofs look very Irish, as do the cottages. I did not design this as much consciously, as perhaps I did unconsciously.

Sounded like one of those interminable online adverts which spends half an hour repeating itself to avoid mentioning the price.

If the mother is Rh-negative and the baby is Rh-positive, the mother's immune system may attack the baby's red blood cells. This can cause life-threatening anemia in the baby. So this is not suprising that the Rh negative trait is passed down so strongly, most of the rest of the babies died.😢

My father is RB 22 ( King Niell etc) and when I did my DNA it came back with a bit of Basque! I’m also a redhead.

THE MILESIANS FROM BASQUE COUNTRY AREA MOVED TO IRELAND. IT IS IN OUR MYTHOLOGY.

[MaryKDayPetrano]

In my father's ancestry, there is both Basque and Irish. I have Rh - type.

I recently discovered Basque in my DNA, it explains the whole rebellious nature we share 😂

The repetition in the video was just way too much to listen to … it had me twitching

My grandma came from Ireland, and I have B negative blood. But, I have always taken that as an injunction, and have endeavored to be as negative as possible.

Rh- people from Europe may experience a strange nostalgia while listening to irish music 😮

[joannmay-anthony]

Ok, this explains my daughter's RH- blood. Her grandmother on her dad's side is pure Irish. Never had any RH- blood type in either side of my family.

[jacquelinemcmenamin]

Could you say “ absolutely “ any more frequently?

[pstewart]

There were interesting facts in the presentation. However, it became tiresome listening to the superlatives. It would be much more engaging if they were all to be left out.

[alisonarmstrong]

I am Scots-Irish, with auburn hair and AB-Rh-Neg.

[leewade]

[patriciayohn]

IAM Scots Irish, Scottish part is from southwestern Scotland, Irish part northern Monaghan, my entire family both sides are Rh O negative and I am positive that we have Basque heritage as well.

[quinntheeskimooutdoors]

Thanks for sharing, I have O- my people are 3/4 from Kerry coast 1/4 from Clare 😊

[paryanindoeur]

Basques have roughly the same prevalence of Rh- blood types. It's probably not selective pressures unique to Ireland, but a founder's effect of Western hunter-gatherers.

"Here's the kicker" doesn't belong with that voice, or the 'dancing' BS. Really took away from an otherwise interesting piece.
