Talk about being a 1 of 1 or Super Ultra Rare Exception.
 
The existence of human chimeras was an important plot point in the brilliant science fiction TV series Orphan Black (2013–2017).

Its reality as a rare but still naturally occurring phenomenon was in fact not speculative at the time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_chimera#Natural_chimerism

The video OP does not seem to acknowledge the existence of the previously documented cases cited there.

The case presented in the video is still very interesting, though.
 
I dislike this video, while this is an interesting case it's not really news, I heard about it years ago and there are other documented cases of chimerism in humans, not just animals like the video claims, this is hardly something scientists had never come across before, so the video feels clickbaity because the woman's case isn't "breaking fundamental rules we thought we understood", I actually went to YouTube to give it a dislike.
