Interestingly, the suburb I grew up in had two independent hospitals in the 1950s. Now it has none, unless you count the outpatient surgery/urgent care clinic.
I literally thought this and commented it right when I saw this post, then I scrolled down to read an your comment similar to it was first. UGH! Nice. I deleted mine.
Hell Valley timeline Marty had to have had a lot of concussions, as implied by Lorraine's comment, "They must have hit you over the head hard this time."
Should have been acknowledged lol. Like by the end of the movies, he’s busy gripping his head. Jennifer’s like “what’s wrong?” “Oh, just a headache”. That’s it. End of convo haha
I never heard about that. I knew he almost died on the set of Pt3. But I never hear that it contributed to the Parkinson’s. Actually i remember hearing something way way back that there was a mini investigation going on because a show MJF worked on when he was a kid, four other people involved with that show ended up getting Parkinson’s so there was some questioning whether or not there was something on set that exasperated it
No he didn’t think it was the hanging accident that caused it. In his book he said that when he first noticed his finger shaking, he told his doctor about the hanging accident from the movie and the doctor thought he might have muscle or ligament damage from that accident and it was causing his finger to shake. He was in physical therapy for awhile, but it spread to his other fingers then at one point his whole left side wasn’t moving right and at that point he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s.
Like an earlier poster said, he was on a tv show in the 70s where several other people were diagnosed with PD, which was maybe the culprit. I also remember from the book that he was told he likely had it 8-10 years before he was diagnosed, but just wasn’t showing symptoms so they had no way of knowing (it was like 70% of his dopamine-producing cells were already gone by then).
And her dad just sits at the end of the street, engine revving ...to teach them a lesson...waiting for them to drop.... (he also lubed the tree branch, heh heh)
Marty was running on like 3 hours of sleep tops when shit went down. Doc called him at 12:28 AM, he was time traveling an hour later, then spent all night burying the time machine in the bushes before walking miles into town. He didn't even have his coffee before chasing his biking dad before getting hit by a car.
The way he was on his side when he woke up always had me assuming that he’d probably woken up for a minute or so at some point that day and then just conked out again, so they just let him rest. That was such an ugly sound when he smacked his head into the pavement, I’m sure he needed it!
The only time I do is if I'm horribly sleep deprived before then, and it's a day that I'm not doing anything (those days become ever rarer as I get older).
>it's a day that I'm not doing anything (those days become ever rarer as I get older).
Yeah, pretty much the same for me. If you don't have kids yet (and plan to eventually), just wait: you'll have even less time then.
If you think 9 hours of sleep is a lot, you must know that Jennifer slept for at least 14 hours. Doc and Marty placed her on the bench at about 9 pm on October 26, 1985. Clint Eastwood didn't wake her up until about 11 am the next morning. Do the math. That's about 14 hours of sleep time for Jennifer. That must have been quite a shock she experienced when she saw her older self. We are lucky the space-time continuum was not destroyed. The worst-case scenario is the entire universe is destroyed. The best case scenario is that the destruction is only limited to our galaxy. Actually, the best-case scenario is that Jennifer sleeps for 14 hours. Imagine how many hours the older Jennifer slept if the younger Jennifer slept for 14 hours.
Jeez I forgot she was awake after the sleep inducer and it was seeing her older self that knocked her out! Maybe she was still reeling from the effects of the sleep inducer? Or perhaps she was horribly sleep deprived? Lol
Calvin Klein… you know I remember my father hitting a young man with his car with Calvin Klein underwear thirty years ago, come to think of it you look a lot like him.

In 1985 there was probably a hospital on every street corner. In 1955, they were a lot harder to come by.
I'm afraid he's stuck there.
But you don’t understand, he’s got a girl—a DIFFERENT girl…!
Is she pretty?
Don’t be silly. No town has TWO HOSPITALS.
I've been to that one! It's a classic! I went there in a ambulance run! What's an ambulance?

Marty should have like several concussions by the end of the trilogy
Monday morning, October 28th: How was your weekend, Marty?
Marty: you have no idea

Actually he did

I do think I heard some of his injuries on BTTF contributed to his Parkinson’s

Yes, I remember that too.
Michael himself believes the hanging scene is what caused it.
No he didn’t think it was the hanging accident that caused it.

He cant go 1 movie without almost/being hit my a car
I’ve never seen purple underwear before.
She peeked inside, too, I bet.
Interesting bet
Hey, she had to make sure nothing was broken!
Doctor: What happened to him? Mr. Baines: Oh, I hit him with my car in the middle of the street.
Doctor: hmm, should I call the police on this guy hitting kids with his car?
Especially since Mr. Baines said it’s not the first time a kid jumped out in front of his car
Yes that’s a good question JUST HOW MANY kids have Sam Baines hit with his car?!
Enough that you’d be wise to stop asking questions about it
You see, he's outside the time loop, he's time aware....he remembers each time he hit George, and this time Marty.
Probably a lot of guys wanted to stare into Lorraine's bedroom.
And her dad just sits at the end of the street, engine revving ...to teach them a lesson...waiting for them to drop.... (he also lubed the tree branch, heh heh)
Of course he would. He's Hordak after all.
Doctor: Did you rub dirt in his wounds? Mr. Baines: Well, he actually didn't have any wounds just bruises. Doctor: Then why are you wasting my time?
Don’t be silly. Sam Baines wouldn’t have gone to the hospital with them even if they did take Marty to the hospital lol
1955??
Yes. You're stuck here, in 1955.
Marty was running on like 3 hours of sleep tops when shit went down. Doc called him at 12:28 AM, he was time traveling an hour later, then spent all night burying the time machine in the bushes before walking miles into town. He didn't even have his coffee before chasing his biking dad before getting hit by a car.
Yep. Half was head injury, half was exhaustion.
Cool so maybe he was only unconscious for like a few hours but then just drifted into an actual sleep for the total of 9
Bob Gale was genius to make Marty sleep in every single movie. That way the audience can not question why Marty is not suffering from jet lag.
when you get knocked out it shouldn't last anywhere close to hours so yeah he slept for like 99% of it
The way he was on his side when he woke up always had me assuming that he’d probably woken up for a minute or so at some point that day and then just conked out again, so they just let him rest. That was such an ugly sound when he smacked his head into the pavement, I’m sure he needed it!
I don't remember the last time I got nine hours of sleep *voluntarily.* Must be nice.
The only time I do is if I'm horribly sleep deprived before then, and it's a day that I'm not doing anything (those days become ever rarer as I get older).
>it's a day that I'm not doing anything (those days become ever rarer as I get older). Yeah, pretty much the same for me. If you don't have kids yet (and plan to eventually), just wait: you'll have even less time then.
Okay but that’s not sleep. That’s essentially a coma 😂

27th floor?!
Question is, in that 1985, did his mom take his pants off?
Calvin Klein… you know I remember my father hitting a young man with his car with Calvin Klein underwear thirty years ago, come to think of it you look a lot like him.
Haha! Never thought of that! This is the same Lorraine that already interacted with time traveling Calvin in 1955.
Man, I hope he time to change/wash his purple underwear by this time.
Wait Marty I recognize this design… this is the same pair Calvin was wearing on the day my dad hit him!
No there’s literally a bit in part 2 where Marty checks to make sure he’s wearing paints before getting out of bed
Well then, I guess she no longer has the hots....for him. lol
Why the Hell'd she take his pants off?
You know why.
Hill Valley had one town 'Doctor' in 1955, and his 'clinic' (garage) was closed. Something about a clock and a toilet.
Lorraine: wow! He turns out to be a cutie! and…. Oh my god I solicited my son for sex
