The video is a medical lecture given by an anethesiologist who treats gunshot wounds. The first 15-20 minutes of the 35 minute video are spent discussing how bullets work inside the body and how they do what they do. For someone who is using a firearm for defensive purposes, he hits a lot of points that are important in understanding how to use a firearm defensively.
The last 15-20 minutes cover wound treatment procedures by EMTs and other medical personnel and while also interesting, are probably not as useful to the layman.
I found the video extremely useful. While not hitting on some of the minutia we discuss on gun boards, it does cover the basics very well and the use of explanatory photos and video, really drive home the points he is making. This is definitely worth 35 minutes of your time if you carry a firearm for self-protection - I consider myself fairly well-read on this subject and even I appreciated and learned something from some of the examples he used to demonstrate these concepts.
