The weirdest deja vu, or premonition maybe? that I ever experienced, was as a teenager. Sitting at home alone in the living room, drawing. A friend, Ryan, was over earlier, and forgot his hat. His mother's van pulls up in the driveway, Ryan get's out, comes to the door. Tells me he forgot his hat, can he go down stairs and get it. I said sure, let him run down stairs, and sat back down to draw. After a few minutes, I noticed the van was gone, but I didn't see Ryan leave. So I went to the top of the stairs, called down to him. Nothing, no answer. So I go down into the basement. No one there. Okay, figured he left, and I didn't notice. Whatever. So, back to drawing. A few moments later, Ryan's mother's van pulls into the driveway, and Ryan comes to the door. He tells me he forgot his hat, and asked if he could go down stairs and get it. I was a little stunned, and asked if he wasn't just there a not long ago. He tells me no. I let him go get his hat, this time went with him, and tell him about what just happened. What the fuck? That experience is burned in my brain. It was the first time anything like that happened, and nothing like it has happened since.
Tarudox I have never really come up with an explanation for it. I assume I was sleep deprived or something. Maybe a combination of that, and what normally causes deja vu? No idea, heh.
Swidhelm very intriguing indeed. Time shift? Alternate realty? Pre-conceived notion of you knowing his dilemma with his hat had given to your expectations of his aforementioned actions...most plausible. Interesting, none-the - less.
“The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.” -Nikola Tesla
I don't think we can dismiss deja vu at all. It's quite the amazing experience. I've had Deja Vu where I actually remember the words people are about to say or a topic somebody will bring up. Say I'm talking to a person and suddenly I feel deja vu, in my mind I'm recalling this conversation and in my head I'm predicting what the person is going to say word-for-word perfectly... Lucky guess? Maybe. However this has happened many times. I don't think it could be anything as simple as a misfiring neuron or some mental illness, especially when I'm correctly predicting words/topics. I've even had dreams where I was watching movies that haven't even been released and I find myself predicting the next scene accurately when I finally do watch.
StoreBrand I don't think these examples are standard deja-vu experiences, you may want to Google "clear seeing", "clear knowing" and/or "scientific descriptions of the psychic modalities" Clearly symptoms of the potential for higher evolution leveling. "Meditate" - release negative energy, negative learned info/opinions, and allow for soul consciousness to emerge. Embrace your "you" and All of your potentials. "Get a guru" ☮⚖⚛❤🔆
What about consciousness? Do they really know what it is? how can you build one? how many neurons do you need to create a consiousness?? Does anybody know that?
There are a lot of ideas, and very little truth. Try reading "The Origins of Consciousness in the Bicameral Mind." It may be a bit old, but it shows very well how little we know.
@yahya s5230 like "Why did I watch this video? I didn't even learn anything. I'm not even paying attention to it." Or _"What am I doing?"_ "Why are fish fish?" _Why can we sometimes see/remember something happening then later on said thing happends?"_ "Why am I asking so much questions?" _"How are words words?"_ Why are things things?" _"How are things things?"_ And many other questions.
Refusal to study something you don't understand is basically openly admitting you are ignorant and do not care about understanding things. We understand so very little of our reality, anyone who tells you otherwise is not doing so based on facts, logic, or reason. It should be our job as humans, scientist, and inhabitants of this universe to specifically seek out that which we do not understand and study it, even if fruitlessly. If we do no study the unknown, how do we expect to discover it?
+Throttle Kitty Well, to most people it's the same as refusing to study unicorns or leprechauns. They think it's a waste of time, and I agree. Well, with most aspects of supernatural. Some would be easy to prove/disprove. And I mean true supernatural, not some of the stuff he talks about here where they do actually study.
cortster12 No, that is not an appropriate comparison at all. If there is no evidence of something's existence, and no one believe's it exists, it is clearly a waste of effort researching it. Anyone with proper comprehension skills should realize that.
I think deja vu is related to whatever makes someone else start humming a song you were thinking of. Something to do with frequencies we detect and aren't aware of that connect us Or that memory being stored immediately and remembered immediately. or both.
you've got something there, there was a writer or songwriter who said he didn't write the song, he was fishing them out from other streams of ideas. which is why there are times we get certain ideas that seem to be similar from others but we've not seen their work. or have heard a song and you feel you've heard it before...
Z Queen dream Javu is creepy to me. rarely happens but it's always something normal, like waking up in a bed I don't recognize with hats on the wall. then years later it happens
It's absolutely necessary for us to study the paranormal! Over man's entire history, he has been met with things that at first seemed "paranormal" or seemed like "magic". It was only when man put on his "thinking cap", that we began to pick things apart, delving into the realm of the unknown, in a bid to understand all of the incredible processes around him. Can u imagine giving Neanderthals one of our smartphones, or one of those INCREDIBLE massage chairs you'd be willing to refinance your house for? Neanderthals wouldn't have been capable of comprehending what they were looking at, let alone what it did or how to use it. And to us, they're such an integral and interwoven part of our daily lives, that we can't go back now. Point being, our phones would've appeared magical or paranormal to them. A final note, one of my most favorite quotes relating to all things paranormal is: "The absence of evidence, is not evidence of absence"
Love how Trace basically translated the scientists "we have no idea what's happening, but here's a cool part of the brain that makes me sound smart"! Trace is awesome!
+Hidden Thicket Would you support re-assigning researchers who are currently investigating ways to develop a vaccine against influenza to studying what ways we can best please Lord Chemosh? There are only a limited number of people, a smaller number of them capable of doing productive research, and a limited number of hours in their days. If things which have no evidence to support even the possibility of their existence are deserving of study, what method can we use to determine where we spend these limited resources? People are dying of influenza now, but clearly if we could please Lord Chemosh he could end world hunger. It seems like a difficult choice to make.
Dustin Rodriguez I never said anything about reassigning anyone away from anything. Only that there is nothing undeserving of study. Some things are more deserving, but nothing is inherently undeserving. I suppose there is eventually a time to give up and study something else, though. Has Lord Chemosh ended world hunger despite our attempts to please him? No. That's why we largely moved along from that sort of thing and changed focus to agriculture and genetics instead.
Hidden Thicket You have to reassign people. There are only a limited number of researchers, and if everything is worthy of study, great swathes of things will be ignored as we concentrate on the things that have evidence to support them. As for Chemosh, we don't know much about him. According to the Christian Bible, he did repel the Israelites and their god when they were trying to invade a city he protected because the leader crushed his own sons head against a rock in sacrifice to him. We haven't studied what benefits we could get from trying to please him in millenia, so we have no way of knowing what benefits there might be. Studying agriculture is all well and good, but if studying Chemosh has value, as you say all things do, we should reassign some people or redirect some of the kids in college studying plant biology to studying Chemosh and other abandoned gods.
Also, Dustin, I get Hidden Thicket's point, you don't necessarily have to reassign researchers. But there simply are no funds to incentivise pointless woowoo research. Sponsor Loch Ness monster expeditions with $10 mil and there will be people willing to spend their time proving or disproving its existence (and no, you wouldn't have to reassign anyone trying to develop the next vaccine against influenza if they don't care about the Loch Ness monster).
First of all, this is definitely in my top five series you guys have done just because it's so clever, skirting the razor edge of the boundaries of science to peek at what else is out there through a scientific lens. Well done. That being said, I think what's important to remember here is that science is a tool, and while it's an extremely powerful tool, a chainsaw works great as a chainsaw but not so great as a clamp. The objective world -- which is what science focuses on by definition -- is arguably the *primary* aspect of reality, but it's an extreme oversimplification to say that it's the only thing that makes up human experience. For example, what purely objective motivation do we have to do science? Because things will get better? We're just one of an incomprehensible number of tiny dots in a vast expanse of nothingness with no clear purpose. What *is* "better" in an objective sense? Global warming? Nuclear fallout? It doesn't matter if you believe that there isn't anything "else" out there independent of matter and the universe as we know it interacting with us. The "secondary" subjective experiences may or may not be based purely in hard matter, no pun intended but it doesn't *matter* because they're just as important to *us* as the things we can all agree are the same, and in a sense we *make* them real.
I would love someone to explain an experience I had 43 years ago. While having a deja vu moment in class, my mind went forward and for a few minutes I clearly saw (as if looking at a re-run), what was about to happen. I told a class mate at the time what the teacher would do and everything occurred exactly as I fore saw. I soooo wish i could enter this state on demand.
I only remember a few experiences of esp like things. I recall being able to tell if a friend of mine was emotionally stressed, who lived over two thousand miles away. I had gone a few weeks of little contact because she was busy with drama class. I called her and she was ether sick or quite sad. Of course I attribute this to my faith, with the spirit and all that. (I'm one of those Mormon boys) The other time in middle school, was a dream I had of math class, taking down notes. The school i was going to at the time had a block schedule, so odd period classes one day, even on the other. So I come into class, and I realize I had already learned it, with a deja vu feel to it. I was going to ask if we had already learned it yesterday, but I remembered the schedule, and tried to think back to what i had done before first learning it, but I had no memory of even entering the class in that memory.
It's crazy when you talk about IBS and the placebo pill, I feel IBS is affect by stress and for me it's something that happens overnight and it's the worst in the morning and fades throughout the day. So i'd guess it's deffinetly affecting the subconsious
In the PLOS One IBS placebo study, the report says the placebo pills were administered with the description that even though they were placebo, they had been shown to help IBS symptoms in clinical studies. That claim would be enough to trigger the placebo affect. They should have administered the placebo with no indication that it would help. For a fair test, they should have just told them they were getting a placebo, and then defined what a placebo is, not what the placebo has been shown to do. I'll bet if you did the same test but described the placebo as having no measurable effect... they would have gotten a very different result. The power of suggestion is... powerful. Also would have been nice to see a slightly larger test group. The power of the mind should never be underestimated.
There is a documentary on the Moai and they reconstructed how they made them and moved them. It would be awesome to think it was some great mystery and such, but they were able to move them by using ropes and rocking them back and forth... thus walking them to their spots. Took a while to do it, but they were able to do it fairly easily. Kinda took the magic out of it, but it's still pretty cool ;)
Can you do a series about the maker movement and DIY and makerspaces and people with hobbies? I'm part of a makerspace called Fubarlabs and I would be glad to help and give information for the series.
You should do a episode on split personality disorders and how one personality can be diabetic and need insulin but another personality and be fine and without diabetes and loves painting and be an exceptional artist then have another personality that is odc or thinks they're a child and all of those personalities has its own traits and health issues but no personality has overlapping health issues or the same knowledge in different areas kind of like the movie split
Dancing Plague. There is also an episode of that in Perú back in the 16 hundreds. They called it Taki Onqoy (quechua lenguaje), meaning illness of singing, or sick song, uncertain translation
There is something to understand a "paranormal" phenomenon: most of the time, it relies on some form of "cheating": guessing something using clues you're not supposed to have, relying on people's reaction to know what they are thinking (cold reading and mentalism), using a clever trick (that's the job of magicians), etc. For example the Loch Ness monster and big foot are human creations: people have admitted creating them, but that did not stop the believers. It is also possible to trace back the story of the UFO's and the guy that made the first "photos" of UFO's using pots and pans. So of course, don't dismiss too quickly claims that contradict your beliefs, but in the explanations, don't forget to consider the social elements: humans fabricate stories and there is business in deceiving other people, or even ourselves.
I have kinda chilling story to tell. I my self are somewhat sceptical of visions of the future, but i experienced it the last 2 years way to often. It always goes like this: I'm dreaming, but im not aware of it, because it just feels like normal day. I only realise its a dream like a second before i wake up. When this happens its like the whole world crashes in shards, my brain crushes in shards my very being crashes into shards. Kinda fast then my dorm reconstruct and I'm back in "reallife". And as I progress that day when this happens, I notice everything goes the same way like in my dreams except some really minor changes. So I tried experimenting with it. Everytime somewhat negative or something i didn't like happened I tried implementing some changes for the better outcome of the day, but boy don't mess with fate, like its so often stated 'time wants to happen'. Everythiong i tried to change seemed changed in the moment, but it came back at me everytime, sometimes 1 week later, a couple weeks later or a couple months later. In the End the situation would occur or in some cases even severer. It's like i was giving my self some preparation time, but i never prepared. My hardest experience with this was when i got stabbed in the spleen. 3Months prior to this event I had one of my vivid dreams and i was in that dream out with my friends. Much alcohol was involved and in the dream it was a pretty damn hillarious evening, well untill in my dream i got stabbed and almost died. Strangely enough i could remember almost everything except who stabbed me. The special thing aboput this dream was, that i had experienced my full stay in the hospital, interactions with my room mate and all that stuff, normally these dreams were only for the next day. So when i woke up i decided i did not want to suffer this gruesome fate, but i was a little bit curious wether anything of this dream would happen on that day. So i proceded with my day as planned and everything in my dream happenend, up untill the point where we as a group wanted to go out drinking. At this point i decided, fuck this shit im out, this can't be real. 'Fuck you fate i take the train home" i thought to myself, made up some lame excuse to my friends why i couldn't come with them. I went home and everything was alright, i was relieved beyond your immagination, but little did i know what would happen 3 months from then. In these 3 Months i declared my dreams as nonesense and that i was a fool to believe in some kind of precognition. Then 14. of July, my Bell rang. At this point i wasn't even thinking any more about my Dreams. I took up the telefone system to find out who it was. Well it was a buddy of mine with which i had some beef for a while. Through the system he sounded very reasonable and like he wanted to talk things through. Gullible as i am i just opened the door for him. At this point i should mention at this time there was another buddy of mine with me in my dorm. I live in the 5th floor so naturally it takes longer for someone to get up. I went to the toilett and told my buddy to wait at the door. As i was of the toilett i heard a scream. I immediately jumped up and sprinted to the door. This fucking maniac was tottally hooked on cocaine, and as my buddy had opned the door, he got a full barrage of pepperspray. Then he tried to attack me barehanded, but since im trained in martial arts I had him pinned to the ground very fast. Im an overall very peacefull person and despise violence in almost every way. So when i had him pinned down I was asking "Dude what is wrong with, come the fuck down man" i shook him as i noticed a scrathing on my side. "This pussy really is scratching me?" i was laughing to myself. With all the adrenaline Pumping through my body at this moment i didn't even notice that this wasn't hisnails, but a knive he pulled out without me noticing it. So i shook him a last time "now calm finnally down" and he did. At first i thought, did it i clamed him down. So i stand up from above him and he stand up. I was noticing nothing at the moment. he began "Sorry" with tears in his eyes. I woundered what the hell what is he meaning. Then i could get a glimpse of the knife that he had held in his right hand, from which blood was dripping. He said again "Sorry" and looked at my left side. Well fuck now i noticed it myself, but still didn't feel any pain. Probably because of the adrenaline. So there is stood in my dorm with a punctured spleen. Out of instinct i grabbed a pillow and started putting pressure on the wound, because i saw this all the time in tv. Doesn#t help much when you are bleeding from inside, i can say in retroperspective, but maybe this really saved me. From their on everything went really really fast. My head was in this weird everything is utterly hillarious mode. As i was walking down the staircase to get to the elevator made jokes like "hahaha look this stupid idiot can't even stab me right, i told him for several months he should buy a new knife the blade is too short." Good he didn't listen to my advice back then. It wasn't like i was not aware of the severity of the wound, well in fact i was very aware of that I would probably die on the way to the hospital, due to the waiting time. But i wanted to die with dignity and a smile on my face. It is pretty common when people get stabbed in the spleen that they won't make it long. Iam a very happy one. As i woke up in the hospital, for the first time reallife shattered into shards and i could see right in front of mehow this shards of existence were forming back together, and hence begin the dream that i had 3months prior. I landed on the room as in my dream, with the same guy as in my dream as my roommate. Every conversation we had, i rembered in between that we had this conversation. everyperson that was at this time in the hospitas had also been in my dream. And one of the weirdest things of all was that my roommate was the 2. time in the hospital this year. The first time he was there was in the same exact room, but only with one bed empty. And guess when he was in the hospital the first time. On the exact same date as i had previously dreamed of. Time wants to happen. This kind of "precognition" that i have is no gift. It is more like torture. It gives me the feeling that i have 0 controll about what happens in my life. And this had lead me to qustion life, because this was gioing against everything i believed in. I was never religious, i always believed facts. Not some hokus pokus crap. I was a very pure realist. But now since i have these dreams i don't even know whats real anymore. Atleast i have become very open to fringe-science now. well thats a short story.
I saw a video of that banned TEDx Talk. It was probably banned because the speaker, while he had some good points, also had some idiotic ideas. He didn't have a very good understanding of biology, but he seemed to think that what little he knew was enough to make him an expert.
Some scientists have proposed a way giving more validity to the out of body experience. It involves having a picture suspended from the ceiling facing the ceiling so none of the doctors or patient know what the picture is of. If the patient can describe the picture after the out of body experience try and explain that one.
you can't just casually toss a statement like "the scientific method is flawed" without further elaboration, and then barrel into an implied accusation of censorship on TED's part... there are statistical shortcomings in most scientific studies, and the anthropic principle is always looming, which along with groupthink may threaten to throw undetected bias into methodology and approach. being "open-minded" here could simply mean being more critical in our thinking and question even some of the more established principles if there is room to grow our understanding.
Moai "heads" actually have bodies. One easy technique to make them move is with ropes, they attached the rope around the shoulders of the statue and by pulling on each sides, at an interval, they could make the statue "walk".
I'm a devout atheist but I believe ESP is possible this way, emotional ESP, animals know when you're frightened, I live in the woods, they also know when you're not, they seem to also know when you're happy, and possibly whales have visited me because I was eager to see them, a personal accidental study, maybe ten out of thirteen attempts, they came! Best sightings ever!
I really liked your video and the topics are really interesting... i found myself speeding the video up but that's just me...i would love to see you use the space behind yourself to show some illustrations or pictures of the topics your discussing i'm easily distracted...i genially think if you done that you could land yourself on mainstream TV if you chose to.
Deja vu - was already proven to be the work of the brain pulling a memory or group of memories related to the perceived event. Most significant even some traumatic events but some simple yet irrelevant events are possible triggers for this "feeling of familiarity". The feeling of familiar can occur when one or more memory/data are aligned to be "similar" or represent the current event. Simple: You saw a bus with certain specific colors moving to X direction... your brain does not only records this memory but also the background details etc. Thus when the same memory was triggered, thus it fires the "Feeling of familiarity". This occurs not only on events, things or places. It also occurs on meeting people. Have you ever experienced "I think I knew you somewhere"? Deja vu is one of the best aspects of implanted memories "in the future" as good or bad or even traumatic implanted memories can force/compel a person/organism/group of' to come up with a desired/expected reaction to such stimuli (in this case memory/data). The best example of which in this time planck is the movie “inception”. Placebo Effect - When all is good, when all is abundant, what else can humans have problems with? One of them is “Stress”. The body handles stress in many ways not only destructive but sometimes deadly. When a person is ill/sick or just basically any situation/stimuli that causes stress, the body degenerates. Production of stress hormones etc will cause damage to the body, thus causing the illness to get worsen. Mental torture is one of the most effective torture method of all time and most are “cured” by placebo medicine/methods. One of which is giving the “assurance” that the person/patient is “getting cured”. The Placebo Cure Methodology does not only require taking “medications” but a very effective way which was discovered in the future is by leveling up the so called methodology by involving a “Doctor” to the scene. This “doctor” will provide feedback to the person/patient that he/she is getting “better” thus giving a “good” stimulus, thus lowering stress, thus the body “regeneration rate” over taking the “degenerative” effects of stress or any so called “disease”/condition. Guess what… “Faith healers” are known to be the best “Placebo Doctors” *wink*… in the past and future ofc. Dancing Plague - “an idle/bored mind is the devils playground” and when everyone/most people around you dies, will you even fear death? Would you even care? Same events happened in the future after the wars, but ofc many events similar to this happened before. Certain colonies who experience a “disconnect” tend to go to the route of suicidal tendencies… one of “primitive human genome” faults. Voynich manuscript - so it’s still not decoded… please tell people to grab a compass and an automatic clock and move letters one by one with spaces paused at “one full circle” and you will be able to decode it. Oh and please don`t mind the pictures… they are there as a distraction… and start decoding at the back. Well that’s how I remembered it being decoded… and the content is not what you think it is. Big foot, loch ness, so called mystical/primitive species etc… doesn’t really matter… in the future it is “we” “humans” who decide who/which/what species will “live”… ofc many oppose to this, but when your crumbling stomach aches and the only “sustainable” way is to ELIMINATE “unproductive” and deemed “unnecessary” species… one if not the most disgusting human act that has ever occurred to so called “pre-colonizer humanity”. No worries though… as long as we have a “copy” of the specie DNA makeup, we can literally “resurrect/reanimate” them… a lot of which did in future colonies… some even go to these colonies just to see these so called “Primitive” animals/species… ofc some keep them as pets and pays a lot of credits hahaha mine is a dragon btw… not that fire breathing dragon though… it’s just a mixed DNA from an alligator + bat + other stuff… looks like a dragon… but can’t really fly… enough. Ghost - Energy creates Matter, Matter creates Energy. Proven and tested. Does it matter though? Yes… especially when that energy carries memories! Ever experience an “out of body experience”? What if, a person died and he/she knows his/her cause of death? Best way to solve a murder case is to… ask the dead. Literally… or just suck the eye balls out and grab the VRC at the back of his/her eyes. Unless his/her eyes are closed at the time of death…oh well… ESP or extra sensory perception - nothing more than a radiation/wave that is transferred/directed to one being to another. Best test subject are a mother and her daughter as they share the best mental wave compatibility. The study and experiments of the said subject helped, helps and will continue to prove “beneficial” especially to covert missions and explorations, deemed especially useful in exploration of new colonial sites. Now for you question… is it worth studying the “paranormal” and if you can get that money what would you do with it? Is it worth studying the “paranormal”? Not all of them. Some, few even, are. If you can get that money what would you do with it? Protecting the lives that matters. Especially this generations future explorers.
Foremost, thank you for the great work you are doing here with these very informative episodes. I wish you all the best! I also want to ask about another part that we can't really explain. It relates to an experiment some Russian scientists did with ants. They found out that the Queen Ant communicated with her colony 200km away in a form of what they called "hyper-communication" - Do you know about this experiment? And what do you think about it? I think this is very critical to understanding the other sense/dimension that we are part of. I would really love your feedback on this. Thank you!
Sometimes I have dejavu because I read A LOT of fiction books. More often than I like, I feel like I have dejavu then have to think about whether it happened in my life or in a book. If u read a lot, you understand
Everything is worth studying. It's up to the researcher to keep pushing the boundary of the unknown as far as it can go, and then figure out how to go a little bit further.
The University of Edinburgh had the *Robert Morris Chair in Parapsychology* that has struggled to define just who should take up such a position. There are other such places as well. Does one give it to someone that has zero belief, or a sceptic or someone that completely believes in the existence of _the paranormal_ (however it is defined). This has been the conundrum for many well funded departments tht deal with _parapsychology_. It's impossible to get a qualification in such a field, let alone be taken seriously when you seek to study such things. Particularly when it's necessary to apply the scientific method to such study. The University of Lund in Sweden also has a department and as far as I can recall, the UCLA had a parapsychology division in the 1970s. The thing is, the weirdness is not going away any time soon. No, I'm not speaking of such silliness as séances and channelling although, one has to ask, what fits the criteria of anomalous or paranormal. Whilst I personally see no reason to believe in Big Foot, or the Loch Ness Monster, nor is anyone else, it seems. We need working definitions. Which means we need people who are open minded enough to be prepared to give certain areas serious study, but not such staunch believers that they seek to make the "evidence" fit the "hypotheses". We've seen this happen in mainstream science as it is. I guess we need a real sceptic. Someone that takes the evidence where it leads but even that is not enough.
+Science Plus This was an awesome video, but there is an error in the underlying theme of the video; Science doesn't need to even address these claims. Positive assertions require evidence before belief is justified, the burden of proof lies with the claimant. Also, Science does not make proclamations of Truth, but rather methodically considers the best, most accurate evidence available and then demonstrates what is most likely true. The reason Supernatural hypothesis are less valid than their Natural counter-parts in claims of causation, is that things that do not exist cannot effect those that do. *This is not a claim that Supernature does not exist,* it's a statement asserting that in order for anything, including Supernature, to be put forward as a valid cause, that thing must be at the very least, existent. The things that are in the category of _Things that Might Exist_ are, at this point, no different as far as our capacity to gauge them than the things in the _Non-Existent_ category. Existence cannot be asserted without first being demonstrated. Nature is known to exist. If one wishes to posit Supernatural explanations, we then compound a problem, by putting forward an explanation that requires demonstration. Until we can evaluate, or indeed determine the existence of, Supernature, it is not rational to assign attributes or capabilities to it. When one puts Supernature as the cause, one says that an effect we can't explain, was produced by a cause we know nothing about, and for all we know, doesn't exist. So, "Mysterious Event" "X," is caused by unknown, possibly non-existent "Cause" "Y," which isn't really saying much.
Trace, is there any scientific evidence for astral projections, or out of body experiences that people claim to have? Or any evidence that disproves them?

my theory for the book of voynich is, it's the book of alchemy.. alchemy has existed for many centuries since the birth of humanity.. the language is forgotten, the art is forgotten, the plants that are displayed in the book are remedies and cures for illnesses or for other alchemist practices
i think the voynich manuscript was probably writen by someone from a precolumbus america civilizations, bc it was discovered and probed to have been writen in the XV century in europe, but a lot of people from america where taken there as slaves, maybe someone wrote it and left it there or something and nobody studied their culture back then, they were just killed or slaved, it wasnt until not so long ago anthropologist began to investigate the pre columbus civilizations and even tho most of the languages that were spoken are known to exist bc they have found sculptures with messages on it, or there were survivors, people know a lot about the incas, mayans or aztects but there could be a lot of unknown data
talking about deja vu, the brain is sometimes called a computer and it can store most of a lifetime. Some computers are capable of running algorithms that can predict the probability of different outcomes. Whats to say that the brain isn't capable of subconsciously predicting future events based on memory and then when it actually happens it seems familiar? Doesn't seem that crazy of an idea to me but it still has to be proved.
Sometimes in science, you can't always get a 100% replicable result. At times you have to approach phenomena in a more probabilistic fashion. Ghosts and such fall in this realm; single observations or experiments won't suffice and must be spread across time.
through self experiment it's possible induce dejavu with kinesthetics which would be borderline placebo. scratch your hand recreate the sensation without physically touching it till you experience parathesia if done long enough.. then do the same thing starting from your medulla oblongata extended to the precuneus parietal lobe 15 minutes a day. voila dejavu, it will come eventually
maybe it's deja vu or misfiring of neurons but I would bet the farm I recently saw something that those Moira statues are more than heads. That they actually had bodies buried underneath them way down into the Earth. Anyone else hear that?
Apparently, the Voynich Manuscript is being decoded as we speak (er. as I type this). It appears that it is an ancient form of Greek that only a few people in modern times have ever heard of.
Know exactly what you mean about these ghost hunter shows bringing the field into disrepute . Same as those prehistoric alien shows on the 'Nostradamus channel', you know, sister outfit to the 'Hitler channel'... my gorge wants to rise when I see that Nikos Constantinous, you know, the guy with the hair..! also that chancer with the breezeblock head and the Beard, the one with the Area 51 routine... I remember this Scouse (Liverpool) medium called Derek Acorah, a real joker, being outed on TV by this punter, it was a thing to treasure; Derek- 'I see an old man..' punter 'does he have red hair?' Derek, 'yes'- punter, 'is it my grandad ? is it George ?', Derek- 'yes, yes, he says he wishes he had had more time with you.. .' punter 'oh crap! I just remembered my grandad's name is Baldy Dave and I play golf with him every Saturday... Derek- spluttering, furious backpedaling! It was exquisite !
Lie detector tests are easy to fool if you're confident. The idea that some body function is activated every time someone says something they know isn't true is an outdated concept. Most Lie detectors used by the police these days are mostly in the hope that they will confess. But you're right, the people do need to be put under more scrutiny.
Hmm.. Every single time I have experienced Deja Vu, I immediately feel an overwhelming nausea in the pit of my stomach, like i'm physically about to be sick. So very interesting to hear the notion of it being linked to the neuronal chemical model for disgust.
...the AMBIENCE (ABSOLUTE) ...analysis depends upon 'basic' KNOWLEDGE ...compounded (empirical) most of your suppositions are poorly grounded ,,,THIS generates 'occlusions' of thought and a 'gap' (bubble) ...like a mirrored ball with you on the inside looking out through your 'conclusions' ...you have all of my sympathy
Why do hoomans yawn?? we do so because it is the body's way of obtaining more air after "incomplete respiration" (when we dont breathe properly) also if any one yawns around us, that triggers the signal our brain uses to make us yawn, hence it is sooooo contagious. imma nerd tooo ;)
I have experienced all sorts of paranormal activity, the most frequent experiences I have dealt with are hardcore synchronicity, and telepathic shit. Ironically however I happen to have never before seen a ghost. As far as paranormal, It's there. It happens. To me it has to do with multidimensional energy and even sentient consciousness, and the likely fact that highly advanced alien life almost certainly exists. I mean come on people space goes on and on and on and never ends.
I have a question. Do you think that paranormal things, entities etc are also part of physics, except that we haven't lets say revelutionized our way of thinking so that we CAN understand them?
P.R. Gaming of course, physics is science, and science is basically the study of the universe and everything in it, we've learnt about 0.000000001% (just a random percentage to give you a rough idea) of what there is to learn. there's room for a god in science, but because what science entails (evolution, the Big Bang etc) religious people and other spiritual people seem to think its science VS faith when really paranormal things such as ghosts and psychic powers can be explained and proven as fact by science, it's just that we have no real evidence to say that they exist yet, so it's more logical to believe that they don't exist and are explained by other phenomena that CAN explain it. in 500 years (if we last that long without nuking each other) our descendants will be laughing at our primitive understanding of the universe and in 500 years THEIR descendants will do the same to them, it's simply how progress works.
Lolz thats possible for our descendants to do, but thats one thing i dont like about science...... if you dont know anything about something, you shouldn't act like its not really there, but at the same time, you shouldnt indulge in everything.... because certain sectors in physics and science should be left unknown...... thats the rule of physics..... but Lycan, im glad to see other people interested in Physics at least as much as i am.... lolz.
Would you ever be able to discuss this situation? Our lives are a simulation because it's just an accumulation of all of our senses working in unison, and generating it for our conscience. How does this work, what is the mind etc. Thanks =)))
I thought Deja-vu was explained? Your brain stores the memory. Sequence A happens. Then sequence B, followed by the sequence C. That is your memory. Then you encounter the similar situation where sequence A and sequence B happen in succession, and the brain automatically assumes the sequence C should follow and you are like: "Wait, what? This happened already?" On a side note, I often had these deja-vu effects and sometimes they would last a good amount of time. Where I am aware that the dejavu is happening and I deliberately turn to the thing that I "know" is going to happen next. Sometimes, even me saying: "Oh man dejavu" is a part of the dejavu and I'm completely aware of it. It's a bizarre thing. Also, I don't see why paranormal is so "outrageous". Science can not and will not explain everything. Ever. And just because we don't have a gizmo to measure the paranormal, doesn't mean it's not there. Took a long time for scientists to build equipment to detect gravitational waves. Doesn't mean they didn't exist before that point.
+MP420ful lol shit like this should not seem unnatural unless you're unnatural.. who tf has to learn to laugh or dance? god laughs and dances so his people do to. just some of these mfs ain't human.
In response to the Easter Island- wasn't it the former Polynesians who crossed the Pacific on balsa wood rafts from Ecuador, while only following the sun ?
Why would I not want to watch your face? Lol. You're soo attractive, not to mention intelligent, with such a passion for learning and educating people. I can definitely relate to that desire for knowledge. Love this channel! ;o)
If scientists would be less arrogant, they would not need to waste time finding out such primitive concepts as placebo. It was already known to occult and this power to heal is used widely. I love how people like this can deny this power despite all the evidence right in front of them.
The weirdest deja vu, or premonition maybe? that I ever experienced, was as a teenager. Sitting at home alone in the living room, drawing. A friend, Ryan, was over earlier, and forgot his hat. His mother's van pulls up in the driveway, Ryan get's out, comes to the door. Tells me he forgot his hat, can he go down stairs and get it. I said sure, let him run down stairs, and sat back down to draw.
After a few minutes, I noticed the van was gone, but I didn't see Ryan leave. So I went to the top of the stairs, called down to him. Nothing, no answer. So I go down into the basement. No one there. Okay, figured he left, and I didn't notice. Whatever.
So, back to drawing. A few moments later, Ryan's mother's van pulls into the driveway, and Ryan comes to the door. He tells me he forgot his hat, and asked if he could go down stairs and get it. I was a little stunned, and asked if he wasn't just there a not long ago. He tells me no. I let him go get his hat, this time went with him, and tell him about what just happened.
What the fuck? That experience is burned in my brain. It was the first time anything like that happened, and nothing like it has happened since.
+Swidhelm that's so weird and interesting
Tarudox I have never really come up with an explanation for it. I assume I was sleep deprived or something. Maybe a combination of that, and what normally causes deja vu? No idea, heh.
Swidhelm very intriguing indeed. Time shift? Alternate realty? Pre-conceived notion of you knowing his dilemma with his hat had given to your expectations of his aforementioned actions...most plausible. Interesting, none-the - less.
Dude glitch in the matrix much?

Agreed. Dyson's sentiment was the same as many other scientists I have read about. we may never know the really interesting things Tesla was onto.
He was referring to the electromagnetic force

+babul1986 Ohh fabulous babul! your words are so wise!
+babul1986 community reference ?
I don't think we can dismiss deja vu at all. It's quite the amazing experience. I've had Deja Vu where I actually remember the words people are about to say or a topic somebody will bring up.
Say I'm talking to a person and suddenly I feel deja vu, in my mind I'm recalling this conversation and in my head I'm predicting what the person is going to say word-for-word perfectly... Lucky guess? Maybe. However this has happened many times. I don't think it could be anything as simple as a misfiring neuron or some mental illness, especially when I'm correctly predicting words/topics.
I've even had dreams where I was watching movies that haven't even been released and I find myself predicting the next scene accurately when I finally do watch.

I don't think these examples are standard deja-vu experiences, you may want to Google "clear seeing", "clear knowing" and/or "scientific descriptions of the psychic modalities"
Clearly symptoms of the potential for higher evolution leveling.
"Meditate" - release negative energy, negative learned info/opinions, and allow for soul consciousness to emerge. Embrace your "you" and All of your potentials.

perhaps us humans are capable of foresight, some more adept than others, but are all still unaware of how to control it
Good to know I’m not the only one that dreams about situations that didn’t happen yet but end up happening later on in real life...
That’s amazing. I wonder how you became that in tuned to that sense. That’s something that hasn’t developed for me.
What about consciousness?
Do they really know what it is? how can you build one? how many neurons do you need to create a consiousness??
Does anybody know that?
+Felhek Lehrian well, that blew my mind... or my consciousness?
This is a cool idea. There must be a study on this already
There are a lot of ideas, and very little truth. Try reading "The Origins of Consciousness in the Bicameral Mind." It may be a bit old, but it shows very well how little we know.
He was right, this channel doesn't answer our question, it just leaves us with more questions
@yahya s5230 like "Why did I watch this video? I didn't even learn anything. I'm not even paying attention to it." Or _"What am I doing?"_ "Why are fish fish?" _Why can we sometimes see/remember something happening then later on said thing happends?"_ "Why am I asking so much questions?" _"How are words words?"_ Why are things things?" _"How are things things?"_ And many other questions.
@yahya s5230 that's pretty cool. And hopefully someone will reply.
If science wasn't limited by money I'm sure we would already have a long going research on these things...
the world isn't as simple as u think
Ronin TDSM it can be once the idiots die and can't pass on lifetime wasting ideas
Science and technology aren't limited by money; they're controlled by the people who HAVE the money
Refusal to study something you don't understand is basically openly admitting you are ignorant and do not care about understanding things. We understand so very little of our reality, anyone who tells you otherwise is not doing so based on facts, logic, or reason. It should be our job as humans, scientist, and inhabitants of this universe to specifically seek out that which we do not understand and study it, even if fruitlessly. If we do no study the unknown, how do we expect to discover it?

+Throttle Kitty It's okay, the tv & news will inform us & take care of us.
+DrDeathAribertHeim lol
+Throttle Kitty Well, to most people it's the same as refusing to study unicorns or leprechauns. They think it's a waste of time, and I agree. Well, with most aspects of supernatural. Some would be easy to prove/disprove. And I mean true supernatural, not some of the stuff he talks about here where they do actually study.
cortster12 No, that is not an appropriate comparison at all. If there is no evidence of something's existence, and no one believe's it exists, it is clearly a waste of effort researching it. Anyone with proper comprehension skills should realize that.
Life may not be real. We are actually all cats wearing frog hats.
+Calvin Brady But... Im afraid of frogs...
Damn it, I need the scientists to prove ghosts exists, I know I'm not crazy. Well, maybe a little.
I think deja vu is related to whatever makes someone else start humming a song you were thinking of. Something to do with frequencies we detect and aren't aware of that connect us Or that memory being stored immediately and remembered immediately. or both.
I legitimately believe it's a psychic ability. I've had déjà vu so often that my dreams, more often than not, are all déjà vu
you've got something there, there was a writer or songwriter who said he didn't write the song, he was fishing them out from other streams of ideas. which is why there are times we get certain ideas that seem to be similar from others but we've not seen their work. or have heard a song and you feel you've heard it before...
can also be like a transmission? and we somehow were able to glance the moment that was ahead of us? sort of like pseudo- time traveling.
Brandon Miller that would be pretty cool is so
Z Queen dream Javu is creepy to me. rarely happens but it's always something normal, like waking up in a bed I don't recognize with hats on the wall. then years later it happens
It's absolutely necessary for us to study the paranormal! Over man's entire history, he has been met with things that at first seemed "paranormal" or seemed like "magic". It was only when man put on his "thinking cap", that we began to pick things apart, delving into the realm of the unknown, in a bid to understand all of the incredible processes around him. Can u imagine giving Neanderthals one of our smartphones, or one of those INCREDIBLE massage chairs you'd be willing to refinance your house for? Neanderthals wouldn't have been capable of comprehending what they were looking at, let alone what it did or how to use it. And to us, they're such an integral and interwoven part of our daily lives, that we can't go back now. Point being, our phones would've appeared magical or paranormal to them. A final note, one of my most favorite quotes relating to all things paranormal is: "The absence of evidence, is not evidence of absence"
Love how Trace basically translated the scientists "we have no idea what's happening, but here's a cool part of the brain that makes me sound smart"! Trace is awesome!
Its never a true party until someone dies, or at least collapses from exhaustion...

There is nothing that is undeserving of study.
+Hidden Thicket Would you support re-assigning researchers who are currently investigating ways to develop a vaccine against influenza to studying what ways we can best please Lord Chemosh? There are only a limited number of people, a smaller number of them capable of doing productive research, and a limited number of hours in their days. If things which have no evidence to support even the possibility of their existence are deserving of study, what method can we use to determine where we spend these limited resources? People are dying of influenza now, but clearly if we could please Lord Chemosh he could end world hunger. It seems like a difficult choice to make.
Dustin Rodriguez
I never said anything about reassigning anyone away from anything. Only that there is nothing undeserving of study. Some things are more deserving, but nothing is inherently undeserving. I suppose there is eventually a time to give up and study something else, though. Has Lord Chemosh ended world hunger despite our attempts to please him? No. That's why we largely moved along from that sort of thing and changed focus to agriculture and genetics instead.
Hidden Thicket You have to reassign people. There are only a limited number of researchers, and if everything is worthy of study, great swathes of things will be ignored as we concentrate on the things that have evidence to support them. As for Chemosh, we don't know much about him. According to the Christian Bible, he did repel the Israelites and their god when they were trying to invade a city he protected because the leader crushed his own sons head against a rock in sacrifice to him. We haven't studied what benefits we could get from trying to please him in millenia, so we have no way of knowing what benefits there might be. Studying agriculture is all well and good, but if studying Chemosh has value, as you say all things do, we should reassign some people or redirect some of the kids in college studying plant biology to studying Chemosh and other abandoned gods.
Sure, are you gonna fund it?
Also, Dustin, I get Hidden Thicket's point, you don't necessarily have to reassign researchers. But there simply are no funds to incentivise pointless woowoo research. Sponsor Loch Ness monster expeditions with $10 mil and there will be people willing to spend their time proving or disproving its existence (and no, you wouldn't have to reassign anyone trying to develop the next vaccine against influenza if they don't care about the Loch Ness monster).

2016: Déjá vu
First of all, this is definitely in my top five series you guys have done just because it's so clever, skirting the razor edge of the boundaries of science to peek at what else is out there through a scientific lens. Well done.
That being said, I think what's important to remember here is that science is a tool, and while it's an extremely powerful tool, a chainsaw works great as a chainsaw but not so great as a clamp. The objective world -- which is what science focuses on by definition -- is arguably the *primary* aspect of reality, but it's an extreme oversimplification to say that it's the only thing that makes up human experience.
For example, what purely objective motivation do we have to do science? Because things will get better? We're just one of an incomprehensible number of tiny dots in a vast expanse of nothingness with no clear purpose. What *is* "better" in an objective sense? Global warming? Nuclear fallout?
It doesn't matter if you believe that there isn't anything "else" out there independent of matter and the universe as we know it interacting with us. The "secondary" subjective experiences may or may not be based purely in hard matter, no pun intended but it doesn't *matter* because they're just as important to *us* as the things we can all agree are the same, and in a sense we *make* them real.
Buzzfeed Blue does a great segment on unexplained phenomena or "ghost stories" that are pretty persuasive for the paranormal to an extent
I would love someone to explain an experience I had 43 years ago. While having a deja vu moment in class, my mind went forward and for a few minutes I clearly saw (as if looking at a re-run), what was about to happen. I told a class mate at the time what the teacher would do and everything occurred exactly as I fore saw. I soooo wish i could enter this state on demand.
I yawned when he mentioned yawning.
Same
Kyle Underhill me too lol and again when I read your comment haha
Kyle Underhill I yawned as soon as I read your comment..
great, that means you have a healthy brain- you're not a psychopath.
Definitely A Russian Paid Troll hi
Anywhere to find that TED talk that was mentioned toward the end?
or did it ever go public?
I only remember a few experiences of esp like things.
I recall being able to tell if a friend of mine was emotionally stressed, who lived over two thousand miles away. I had gone a few weeks of little contact because she was busy with drama class. I called her and she was ether sick or quite sad. Of course I attribute this to my faith, with the spirit and all that. (I'm one of those Mormon boys)
The other time in middle school, was a dream I had of math class, taking down notes. The school i was going to at the time had a block schedule, so odd period classes one day, even on the other. So I come into class, and I realize I had already learned it, with a deja vu feel to it. I was going to ask if we had already learned it yesterday, but I remembered the schedule, and tried to think back to what i had done before first learning it, but I had no memory of even entering the class in that memory.
It's crazy when you talk about IBS and the placebo pill, I feel IBS is affect by stress and for me it's something that happens overnight and it's the worst in the morning and fades throughout the day. So i'd guess it's deffinetly affecting the subconsious
In the PLOS One IBS placebo study, the report says the placebo pills were administered with the description that even though they were placebo, they had been shown to help IBS symptoms in clinical studies. That claim would be enough to trigger the placebo affect. They should have administered the placebo with no indication that it would help. For a fair test, they should have just told them they were getting a placebo, and then defined what a placebo is, not what the placebo has been shown to do. I'll bet if you did the same test but described the placebo as having no measurable effect... they would have gotten a very different result. The power of suggestion is... powerful. Also would have been nice to see a slightly larger test group.
The power of the mind should never be underestimated.
Even Von "Hotelier" did concede that they can be walked by humans; the statutes.
Ive saw Loch Ness... just never saw any monster :) ... Great channel by the way, loving it :)
There is a documentary on the Moai and they reconstructed how they made them and moved them. It would be awesome to think it was some great mystery and such, but they were able to move them by using ropes and rocking them back and forth... thus walking them to their spots. Took a while to do it, but they were able to do it fairly easily. Kinda took the magic out of it, but it's still pretty cool ;)
Can you do a series about the maker movement and DIY and makerspaces and people with hobbies? I'm part of a makerspace called Fubarlabs and I would be glad to help and give information for the series.
I legit always get deja vu. Pretty crazy stuff, people will say or do something and it's like I've seen it before.
I had Deja vu that I’d end this early and I did wow it is strange!
I really love this new layout, but I think it would be cool if there were some pictures
You should do a episode on split personality disorders and how one personality can be diabetic and need insulin but another personality and be fine and without diabetes and loves painting and be an exceptional artist then have another personality that is odc or thinks they're a child and all of those personalities has its own traits and health issues but no personality has overlapping health issues or the same knowledge in different areas kind of like the movie split
I seriously love this channel!!
Dancing Plague. There is also an episode of that in Perú back in the 16 hundreds. They called it Taki Onqoy (quechua lenguaje), meaning illness of singing, or sick song, uncertain translation
There is something to understand a "paranormal" phenomenon: most of the time, it relies on some form of "cheating": guessing something using clues you're not supposed to have, relying on people's reaction to know what they are thinking (cold reading and mentalism), using a clever trick (that's the job of magicians), etc. For example the Loch Ness monster and big foot are human creations: people have admitted creating them, but that did not stop the believers. It is also possible to trace back the story of the UFO's and the guy that made the first "photos" of UFO's using pots and pans. So of course, don't dismiss too quickly claims that contradict your beliefs, but in the explanations, don't forget to consider the social elements: humans fabricate stories and there is business in deceiving other people, or even ourselves.
"some argue that that's happened again, it's called coachella"
😹😹😹
+Adi Malhotra i actually laughed out loud at that one. Good job, Trace!
I have kinda chilling story to tell. I my self are somewhat sceptical of visions of the future, but i experienced it the last 2 years way to often. It always goes like this: I'm dreaming, but im not aware of it, because it just feels like normal day. I only realise its a dream like a second before i wake up. When this happens its like the whole world crashes in shards, my brain crushes in shards my very being crashes into shards. Kinda fast then my dorm reconstruct and I'm back in "reallife". And as I progress that day when this happens, I notice everything goes the same way like in my dreams except some really minor changes. So I tried experimenting with it. Everytime somewhat negative or something i didn't like happened I tried implementing some changes for the better outcome of the day, but boy don't mess with fate, like its so often stated 'time wants to happen'. Everythiong i tried to change seemed changed in the moment, but it came back at me everytime, sometimes 1 week later, a couple weeks later or a couple months later. In the End the situation would occur or in some cases even severer. It's like i was giving my self some preparation time, but i never prepared. My hardest experience with this was when i got stabbed in the spleen. 3Months prior to this event I had one of my vivid dreams and i was in that dream out with my friends. Much alcohol was involved and in the dream it was a pretty damn hillarious evening, well untill in my dream i got stabbed and almost died. Strangely enough i could remember almost everything except who stabbed me. The special thing aboput this dream was, that i had experienced my full stay in the hospital, interactions with my room mate and all that stuff, normally these dreams were only for the next day. So when i woke up i decided i did not want to suffer this gruesome fate, but i was a little bit curious wether anything of this dream would happen on that day. So i proceded with my day as planned and everything in my dream happenend, up untill the point where we as a group wanted to go out drinking. At this point i decided, fuck this shit im out, this can't be real. 'Fuck you fate i take the train home" i thought to myself, made up some lame excuse to my friends why i couldn't come with them. I went home and everything was alright, i was relieved beyond your immagination, but little did i know what would happen 3 months from then. In these 3 Months i declared my dreams as nonesense and that i was a fool to believe in some kind of precognition. Then 14. of July, my Bell rang. At this point i wasn't even thinking any more about my Dreams. I took up the telefone system to find out who it was. Well it was a buddy of mine with which i had some beef for a while. Through the system he sounded very reasonable and like he wanted to talk things through. Gullible as i am i just opened the door for him. At this point i should mention at this time there was another buddy of mine with me in my dorm. I live in the 5th floor so naturally it takes longer for someone to get up. I went to the toilett and told my buddy to wait at the door. As i was of the toilett i heard a scream. I immediately jumped up and sprinted to the door. This fucking maniac was tottally hooked on cocaine, and as my buddy had opned the door, he got a full barrage of pepperspray. Then he tried to attack me barehanded, but since im trained in martial arts I had him pinned to the ground very fast. Im an overall very peacefull person and despise violence in almost every way. So when i had him pinned down I was asking "Dude what is wrong with, come the fuck down man" i shook him as i noticed a scrathing on my side. "This pussy really is scratching me?" i was laughing to myself. With all the adrenaline Pumping through my body at this moment i didn't even notice that this wasn't hisnails, but a knive he pulled out without me noticing it. So i shook him a last time "now calm finnally down" and he did. At first i thought, did it i clamed him down. So i stand up from above him and he stand up. I was noticing nothing at the moment. he began "Sorry" with tears in his eyes. I woundered what the hell what is he meaning. Then i could get a glimpse of the knife that he had held in his right hand, from which blood was dripping. He said again "Sorry" and looked at my left side. Well fuck now i noticed it myself, but still didn't feel any pain. Probably because of the adrenaline. So there is stood in my dorm with a punctured spleen. Out of instinct i grabbed a pillow and started putting pressure on the wound, because i saw this all the time in tv. Doesn#t help much when you are bleeding from inside, i can say in retroperspective, but maybe this really saved me. From their on everything went really really fast. My head was in this weird everything is utterly hillarious mode. As i was walking down the staircase to get to the elevator made jokes like "hahaha look this stupid idiot can't even stab me right, i told him for several months he should buy a new knife the blade is too short." Good he didn't listen to my advice back then. It wasn't like i was not aware of the severity of the wound, well in fact i was very aware of that I would probably die on the way to the hospital, due to the waiting time. But i wanted to die with dignity and a smile on my face. It is pretty common when people get stabbed in the spleen that they won't make it long. Iam a very happy one.
As i woke up in the hospital, for the first time reallife shattered into shards and i could see right in front of mehow this shards of existence were forming back together, and hence begin the dream that i had 3months prior. I landed on the room as in my dream, with the same guy as in my dream as my roommate. Every conversation we had, i rembered in between that we had this conversation. everyperson that was at this time in the hospitas had also been in my dream. And one of the weirdest things of all was that my roommate was the 2. time in the hospital this year. The first time he was there was in the same exact room, but only with one bed empty. And guess when he was in the hospital the first time. On the exact same date as i had previously dreamed of. Time wants to happen. This kind of "precognition" that i have is no gift. It is more like torture. It gives me the feeling that i have 0 controll about what happens in my life. And this had lead me to qustion life, because this was gioing against everything i believed in. I was never religious, i always believed facts. Not some hokus pokus crap. I was a very pure realist. But now since i have these dreams i don't even know whats real anymore. Atleast i have become very open to fringe-science now.
well thats a short story.
I saw a video of that banned TEDx Talk. It was probably banned because the speaker, while he had some good points, also had some idiotic ideas. He didn't have a very good understanding of biology, but he seemed to think that what little he knew was enough to make him an expert.
this video feels so familiar
basically dead true i just had Deja Vu about this video, the irony 😂
Some scientists have proposed a way giving more validity to the out of body experience. It involves having a picture suspended from the ceiling facing the ceiling so none of the doctors or patient know what the picture is of.
If the patient can describe the picture after the out of body experience try and explain that one.
'Science can't even explain yawning' ... I yawned within seconds after hearing that
you can't just casually toss a statement like "the scientific method is flawed" without further elaboration, and then barrel into an implied accusation of censorship on TED's part...
there are statistical shortcomings in most scientific studies, and the anthropic principle is always looming, which along with groupthink may threaten to throw undetected bias into methodology and approach.
being "open-minded" here could simply mean being more critical in our thinking and question even some of the more established principles if there is room to grow our understanding.
Moai "heads" actually have bodies. One easy technique to make them move is with ropes, they attached the rope around the shoulders of the statue and by pulling on each sides, at an interval, they could make the statue "walk".
I'm a devout atheist but I believe ESP is possible this way, emotional ESP, animals know when you're frightened, I live in the woods, they also know when you're not, they seem to also know when you're happy, and possibly whales have visited me because I was eager to see them, a personal accidental study, maybe ten out of thirteen attempts, they came! Best sightings ever!
I really liked your video and the topics are really interesting... i found myself speeding the video up but that's just me...i would love to see you use the space behind yourself to show some illustrations or pictures of the topics your discussing i'm easily distracted...i genially think if you done that you could land yourself on mainstream TV if you chose to.
This was pretty interesting. Great episode.
Deja vu - was already proven to be the work of the brain pulling a memory or group of memories related to the perceived event. Most significant even some traumatic events but some simple yet irrelevant events are possible triggers for this "feeling of familiarity". The feeling of familiar can occur when one or more memory/data are aligned to be "similar" or represent the current event. Simple: You saw a bus with certain specific colors moving to X direction... your brain does not only records this memory but also the background details etc. Thus when the same memory was triggered, thus it fires the "Feeling of familiarity". This occurs not only on events, things or places. It also occurs on meeting people. Have you ever experienced "I think I knew you somewhere"? Deja vu is one of the best aspects of implanted memories "in the future" as good or bad or even traumatic implanted memories can force/compel a person/organism/group of' to come up with a desired/expected reaction to such stimuli (in this case memory/data). The best example of which in this time planck is the movie “inception”.
Placebo Effect - When all is good, when all is abundant, what else can humans have problems with? One of them is “Stress”. The body handles stress in many ways not only destructive but sometimes deadly. When a person is ill/sick or just basically any situation/stimuli that causes stress, the body degenerates. Production of stress hormones etc will cause damage to the body, thus causing the illness to get worsen. Mental torture is one of the most effective torture method of all time and most are “cured” by placebo medicine/methods. One of which is giving the “assurance” that the person/patient is “getting cured”. The Placebo Cure Methodology does not only require taking “medications” but a very effective way which was discovered in the future is by leveling up the so called methodology by involving a “Doctor” to the scene. This “doctor” will provide feedback to the person/patient that he/she is getting “better” thus giving a “good” stimulus, thus lowering stress, thus the body “regeneration rate” over taking the “degenerative” effects of stress or any so called “disease”/condition. Guess what… “Faith healers” are known to be the best “Placebo Doctors” *wink*… in the past and future ofc.
Dancing Plague - “an idle/bored mind is the devils playground” and when everyone/most people around you dies, will you even fear death? Would you even care? Same events happened in the future after the wars, but ofc many events similar to this happened before. Certain colonies who experience a “disconnect” tend to go to the route of suicidal tendencies… one of “primitive human genome” faults.
Voynich manuscript - so it’s still not decoded… please tell people to grab a compass and an automatic clock and move letters one by one with spaces paused at “one full circle” and you will be able to decode it. Oh and please don`t mind the pictures… they are there as a distraction… and start decoding at the back. Well that’s how I remembered it being decoded… and the content is not what you think it is.
Big foot, loch ness, so called mystical/primitive species etc… doesn’t really matter… in the future it is “we” “humans” who decide who/which/what species will “live”… ofc many oppose to this, but when your crumbling stomach aches and the only “sustainable” way is to ELIMINATE “unproductive” and deemed “unnecessary” species… one if not the most disgusting human act that has ever occurred to so called “pre-colonizer humanity”. No worries though… as long as we have a “copy” of the specie DNA makeup, we can literally “resurrect/reanimate” them… a lot of which did in future colonies… some even go to these colonies just to see these so called “Primitive” animals/species… ofc some keep them as pets and pays a lot of credits hahaha mine is a dragon btw… not that fire breathing dragon though… it’s just a mixed DNA from an alligator + bat + other stuff… looks like a dragon… but can’t really fly… enough.
Ghost - Energy creates Matter, Matter creates Energy. Proven and tested. Does it matter though? Yes… especially when that energy carries memories! Ever experience an “out of body experience”? What if, a person died and he/she knows his/her cause of death? Best way to solve a murder case is to… ask the dead. Literally… or just suck the eye balls out and grab the VRC at the back of his/her eyes. Unless his/her eyes are closed at the time of death…oh well…
ESP or extra sensory perception - nothing more than a radiation/wave that is transferred/directed to one being to another. Best test subject are a mother and her daughter as they share the best mental wave compatibility. The study and experiments of the said subject helped, helps and will continue to prove “beneficial” especially to covert missions and explorations, deemed especially useful in exploration of new colonial sites.
Now for you question… is it worth studying the “paranormal” and if you can get that money what would you do with it?
Is it worth studying the “paranormal”? Not all of them. Some, few even, are.
If you can get that money what would you do with it? Protecting the lives that matters. Especially this generations future explorers.
Perhaps our brain performs operations at the quantum level that has yet to be uncovered.
Foremost, thank you for the great work you are doing here with these very informative episodes. I wish you all the best! I also want to ask about another part that we can't really explain. It relates to an experiment some Russian scientists did with ants. They found out that the Queen Ant communicated with her colony 200km away in a form of what they called "hyper-communication" - Do you know about this experiment? And what do you think about it? I think this is very critical to understanding the other sense/dimension that we are part of. I would really love your feedback on this. Thank you!
My brother sometimes dreams of what is going to happen the next day and only remembers he dreamed it when it happens
Sometimes I have dejavu because I read A LOT of fiction books. More often than I like, I feel like I have dejavu then have to think about whether it happened in my life or in a book. If u read a lot, you understand
Everything is worth studying. It's up to the researcher to keep pushing the boundary of the unknown as far as it can go, and then figure out how to go a little bit further.
I thought yawning ( 8:44 ) was to get more oxygen to stay more alert in case anything happens until you can find a safe spot to sleep :o
Could Deja Vu be the effect of gravitational wave ripples in spacetime?
1:45 that moment when u feel so stupid
do a series on the science of attraction
what was the name of that book, I'd like to look it up, I'm curious about it.
The University of Edinburgh had the *Robert Morris Chair in Parapsychology* that has struggled to define just who should take up such a position. There are other such places as well. Does one give it to someone that has zero belief, or a sceptic or someone that completely believes in the existence of _the paranormal_ (however it is defined). This has been the conundrum for many well funded departments tht deal with _parapsychology_. It's impossible to get a qualification in such a field, let alone be taken seriously when you seek to study such things. Particularly when it's necessary to apply the scientific method to such study. The University of Lund in Sweden also has a department and as far as I can recall, the UCLA had a parapsychology division in the 1970s. The thing is, the weirdness is not going away any time soon. No, I'm not speaking of such silliness as séances and channelling although, one has to ask, what fits the criteria of anomalous or paranormal. Whilst I personally see no reason to believe in Big Foot, or the Loch Ness Monster, nor is anyone else, it seems. We need working definitions. Which means we need people who are open minded enough to be prepared to give certain areas serious study, but not such staunch believers that they seek to make the "evidence" fit the "hypotheses". We've seen this happen in mainstream science as it is. I guess we need a real sceptic. Someone that takes the evidence where it leads but even that is not enough.
the irony that I yawned literally right before he said yawning...
+Science Plus This was an awesome video, but there is an error in the underlying theme of the video; Science doesn't need to even address these claims. Positive assertions require evidence before belief is justified, the burden of proof lies with the claimant. Also, Science does not make proclamations of Truth, but rather methodically considers the best, most accurate evidence available and then demonstrates what is most likely true.
The reason Supernatural hypothesis are less valid than their Natural counter-parts in claims of causation, is that things that do not exist cannot effect those that do. *This is not a claim that Supernature does not exist,* it's a statement asserting that in order for anything, including Supernature, to be put forward as a valid cause, that thing must be at the very least, existent.
The things that are in the category of _Things that Might Exist_ are, at this point, no different as far as our capacity to gauge them than the things in the _Non-Existent_ category. Existence cannot be asserted without first being demonstrated. Nature is known to exist. If one wishes to posit Supernatural explanations, we then compound a problem, by putting forward an explanation that requires demonstration.
Until we can evaluate, or indeed determine the existence of, Supernature, it is not rational to assign attributes or capabilities to it. When one puts Supernature as the cause, one says that an effect we can't explain, was produced by a cause we know nothing about, and for all we know, doesn't exist. So, "Mysterious Event" "X," is caused by unknown, possibly non-existent "Cause" "Y," which isn't really saying much.
Trace, is there any scientific evidence for astral projections, or out of body experiences that people claim to have? Or any evidence that disproves them?

YES TRACE YOU USED THE WORD HYPOTHESIS CORRECTLY!!!
my theory for the book of voynich is, it's the book of alchemy.. alchemy has existed for many centuries since the birth of humanity.. the language is forgotten, the art is forgotten, the plants that are displayed in the book are remedies and cures for illnesses or for other alchemist practices
i think the voynich manuscript was probably writen by someone from a precolumbus america civilizations, bc it was discovered and probed to have been writen in the XV century in europe, but a lot of people from america where taken there as slaves, maybe someone wrote it and left it there or something and nobody studied their culture back then, they were just killed or slaved, it wasnt until not so long ago anthropologist began to investigate the pre columbus civilizations and even tho most of the languages that were spoken are known to exist bc they have found sculptures with messages on it, or there were survivors, people know a lot about the incas, mayans or aztects but there could be a lot of unknown data
What do you mean heads? Those statues have bodies.And where could i find that Ted episode?
do an episode on meditation and effect to the human brain and mind
talking about deja vu, the brain is sometimes called a computer and it can store most of a lifetime. Some computers are capable of running algorithms that can predict the probability of different outcomes. Whats to say that the brain isn't capable of subconsciously predicting future events based on memory and then when it actually happens it seems familiar? Doesn't seem that crazy of an idea to me but it still has to be proved.
Sometimes in science, you can't always get a 100% replicable result. At times you have to approach phenomena in a more probabilistic fashion. Ghosts and such fall in this realm; single observations or experiments won't suffice and must be spread across time.
through self experiment it's possible induce dejavu with kinesthetics which would be borderline placebo. scratch your hand recreate the sensation without physically touching it till you experience parathesia if done long enough.. then do the same thing starting from your medulla oblongata extended to the precuneus parietal lobe 15 minutes a day. voila dejavu, it will come eventually
Some argue that it's just Coachella 😂😂
maybe it's deja vu or misfiring of neurons but I would bet the farm I recently saw something that those Moira statues are more than heads. That they actually had bodies buried underneath them way down into the Earth. Anyone else hear that?
+upcyclesarah yeah, the moai are full body statues, the heads are just disproportionately large
Apparently, the Voynich Manuscript is being decoded as we speak (er. as I type this). It appears that it is an ancient form of Greek that only a few people in modern times have ever heard of.
Sorry...I meant, ancient Turkish.
love how you immediately moved on from the cochella joke
Know exactly what you mean about these ghost hunter shows bringing the field into disrepute . Same as those prehistoric alien shows on the 'Nostradamus channel', you know, sister outfit to the 'Hitler channel'... my gorge wants to rise when I see that Nikos Constantinous, you know, the guy with the hair..! also that chancer with the breezeblock head and the Beard, the one with the Area 51 routine...
I remember this Scouse (Liverpool) medium called Derek Acorah, a real joker, being outed on TV by this punter, it was a thing to treasure; Derek- 'I see an old man..' punter 'does he have red hair?' Derek, 'yes'- punter, 'is it my grandad ? is it George ?', Derek- 'yes, yes, he says he wishes he had had more time with you.. .' punter 'oh crap! I just remembered my grandad's name is Baldy Dave and I play golf with him every Saturday... Derek- spluttering, furious backpedaling! It was exquisite !
they should do lie detectors on people who claim they have seen things... like big foot ect
Lie detector tests are easy to fool if you're confident. The idea that some body function is activated every time someone says something they know isn't true is an outdated concept. Most Lie detectors used by the police these days are mostly in the hope that they will confess. But you're right, the people do need to be put under more scrutiny.
Like it, your videos! Maybe some more graf, animation?
Let's start a Kickstarter campaign to prove the existence of Loch Ness with a team of scientists!
+Jesper Forsberg I'm pretty sure nobody ever denied the existance of the lake
+RodrigoWaxen ha-ha very funny
The Heads at the Easter Island are not only heads - they're entire bodies that are inside the earth. Archeologists found that last year, btw.
Hmm.. Every single time I have experienced Deja Vu, I immediately feel an overwhelming nausea in the pit of my stomach, like i'm physically about to be sick. So very interesting to hear the notion of it being linked to the neuronal chemical model for disgust.
I did my extended project on the placebo effect! It's so interesting 😄
i love you this video is the best top # video out there. chock full of actual informative information!
Where can I read the script?
love the series trace keep it up! can we maybe have a series on our moon?
...the AMBIENCE (ABSOLUTE) ...analysis depends upon 'basic' KNOWLEDGE ...compounded (empirical) most of your suppositions are poorly grounded ,,,THIS generates 'occlusions' of thought and a 'gap' (bubble) ...like a mirrored ball with you on the inside looking out through your 'conclusions' ...you have all of my sympathy
Why do hoomans yawn?? we do so because it is the body's way of obtaining more air after "incomplete respiration" (when we dont breathe properly) also if any one yawns around us, that triggers the signal our brain uses to make us yawn, hence it is sooooo contagious. imma nerd tooo ;)
I have experienced all sorts of paranormal activity, the most frequent experiences I have dealt with are hardcore synchronicity, and telepathic shit. Ironically however I happen to have never before seen a ghost. As far as paranormal, It's there. It happens. To me it has to do with multidimensional energy and even sentient consciousness, and the likely fact that highly advanced alien life almost certainly exists. I mean come on people space goes on and on and on and never ends.
I have a question. Do you think that paranormal things, entities etc are also part of physics, except that we haven't lets say revelutionized our way of thinking so that we CAN understand them?
P.R. Gaming of course, physics is science, and science is basically the study of the universe and everything in it, we've learnt about 0.000000001% (just a random percentage to give you a rough idea) of what there is to learn.
there's room for a god in science, but because what science entails (evolution, the Big Bang etc) religious people and other spiritual people seem to think its science VS faith when really paranormal things such as ghosts and psychic powers can be explained and proven as fact by science, it's just that we have no real evidence to say that they exist yet, so it's more logical to believe that they don't exist and are explained by other phenomena
that CAN explain it.
in 500 years (if we last that long without nuking each other) our descendants will be laughing at our primitive understanding of the universe and in 500 years THEIR descendants will do the same to them, it's simply how progress works.
Lolz thats possible for our descendants to do, but thats one thing i dont like about science...... if you dont know anything about something, you shouldn't act like its not really there, but at the same time, you shouldnt indulge in everything.... because certain sectors in physics and science should be left unknown...... thats the rule of physics..... but Lycan, im glad to see other people interested in Physics at least as much as i am.... lolz.
Studying things we do not understand is that what science is ore studying things we think we understand and testing it.
Would you ever be able to discuss this situation?
Our lives are a simulation because it's just an accumulation of all of our senses working in unison, and generating it for our conscience. How does this work, what is the mind etc.
Thanks =)))
I thought Deja-vu was explained? Your brain stores the memory. Sequence A happens. Then sequence B, followed by the sequence C. That is your memory. Then you encounter the similar situation where sequence A and sequence B happen in succession, and the brain automatically assumes the sequence C should follow and you are like: "Wait, what? This happened already?"
On a side note, I often had these deja-vu effects and sometimes they would last a good amount of time. Where I am aware that the dejavu is happening and I deliberately turn to the thing that I "know" is going to happen next. Sometimes, even me saying: "Oh man dejavu" is a part of the dejavu and I'm completely aware of it. It's a bizarre thing.
Also, I don't see why paranormal is so "outrageous". Science can not and will not explain everything. Ever. And just because we don't have a gizmo to measure the paranormal, doesn't mean it's not there. Took a long time for scientists to build equipment to detect gravitational waves. Doesn't mean they didn't exist before that point.
Dancing plague is the scariest thing I’ve heard of that’s actually happened
I wish he'd have covered the Nocebo effect

Listen bro I can't get this podcast on iTunes😞
+Akhil Menon We're adding the last few episodes this week! Check back shortly!
+DNews Plus I love ur show
+DNews Plus I read not too long ago that laughing was spread around like the dancing n Africa, check it out.
+DNews Plus Ok😊
+MP420ful lol shit like this should not seem unnatural unless you're unnatural.. who tf has to learn to laugh or dance? god laughs and dances so his people do to. just some of these mfs ain't human.
In response to the Easter Island- wasn't it the former Polynesians who crossed the Pacific on balsa wood rafts from Ecuador, while only following the sun ?
That's a popular theory but it remains unproven
Why would I not want to watch your face? Lol. You're soo attractive, not to mention intelligent, with such a passion for learning and educating people. I can definitely relate to that desire for knowledge. Love this channel! ;o)
If scientists would be less arrogant, they would not need to waste time finding out such primitive concepts as placebo. It was already known to occult and this power to heal is used widely. I love how people like this can deny this power despite all the evidence right in front of them.
This video would be much better and more interesting for watch with some pics and vids inside
+Jovan Krivokapic i like to listen to these before going to sleep so i'm fine with it
