Brain Magic – The Misconception Illusion | Brain Games


hey guys there are so many
misconceptions out there about the human
mind well today we’re going to do a
little bit of magic to find out what
people think they know about their own
brain check it out
hi yes she my name is Erica Claire we do
a show for NatGeo called brain games
today today’s episode is about
misconceptions about the human brain
like Oh have you ever heard that we only
use 10% of our brain yeah total I use
way way more that we only have five
senses we have way more today I want to
do a little experiment to demonstrate
these misconceptions let me I won’t say
anything more I’m just gonna show you
okay here’s what I get you – we’re gonna
stand kind of close to each other like
this I’m gonna ask you to put your feet
on top of my feet so your tippy toes on
top of my tippy toes great okay this is
nice nice okay and here’s we’re gonna do
I mean ask you to take the tips of your
fingers and I’m gonna count to three one
two three on the count of three I just
want you to gently place your index
fingers on top of my eyelids very gently
are you ready and I’ll close my eyes
one two three go ahead great are you
ready now I’m gonna count from three to
one and I want you to imagine yourself
punching me in the gut as hard as you
can
kind of weird are you ready just really
feel it here we go
three two one go nope nope I didn’t did
you picture yourself punching me okay
you need to feel it more here we go
three two one go oh ah I’ll be okay okay

actually gonna feel something now knows
a lot of people around but nobody is
gonna come interfere what we’re doing
here this is just us are you ready all
right
I’m going to put my feet on top of your
feet just like this and I’m going to
count to three and out one two three on
the count of three I want you to close
your eyelids and I’m gonna gently place
my clean fingers on the back they better
be placed on the back of your eyelids
are you ready here we go one two three
close your eyes just like that here we
go three two one did you feel something
no honestly no I honestly think they
won’t believe you
I can’t fake it not crazy well I’m not
gonna tell you that all I’m going to
tell you is that we use way more than
ten percent of our brains I use more
than ten percent my brain to accomplish
that and a few extra sensory abilities
