regardless, it appears that the blood velocity entering the heart equals the velocity of blood exiting the heart. the analogy he gives that you never put a pump into a flowing river to pump it with exactly the river flow speed. you put it a the point where it stopped. the 'pumping' force seems to come from the capillaries where the velocity is close to 0, through a mechanism I can't explain very well (he goes in detail in the video)
the interesting part is that in this case a lot so called heart issues would point mainly to metabolic/mitochondrial health as opposed to 'heart issues'. also mentions that high BP is a compensatory mechanism and many drugs are damaging to the bodies ability to repair.
