Description
Throughout history, a few men have been associated with the invention of anesthesia. William Morton definitely didn't invent it, but he sure did popularize it. He also tried to disguise the actual chemical he used (ether) and patent it under the name Letheon. All that drama and more in this SciShow episode.
