In 1995, the British Medical Journal published a report about a builder who accidentally jumped onto a nail, which pierced straight through his steel-toed boot. He was in such agonizing pain that any movement was unbearable. But when the doctors took off his boot, they discovered that the nail had never touched his foot at all. Whats going on? Joshua W. Pate investigates the experience of pain. Lesson by Joshua W. Pate, directed by Artrake Studio

Like the video said, some people are immune to pain.
While that may sound amazing, it actually isnt.
Because all pain is nullified, they wont be able to tell whether or not they have experienced something dangerous like breaking your Ribcage and internal bleeding, and in even worse cases(like meningitis and encephalitis, they may not even be able to tell that they are dying.
In a way, we should all be grateful we experience pain, no matter how annoying it is.

I think the worse enemy is pain. But probably pain is needed. I now that morfine is used in patient with cancer to remove pain. I think animals feel pain just like us. I personally am afraid of pain. I think feelings say us what is wrong (bad feelings) and what is right (good feelings. I think bad feeling notify us of a damaged area.

I once fell of a super fast riding ripstick. I had a wound, i knew i did, but i didnt want to look at it. So i didnt, i walked back home normally, then when i got home, i had to clean the wound, so i looked at it, and i experienced so much pain when i realized i had a big and deep wound.

I actually experience the opposite of what the worker did. I had a small cut on my calf and I felt nothing, the pain came after someone pointed out to me that I'm leaving trickles of blood on the floor. I guess my brain immediately made the connection.

Imagine if you could get injected with a chemical of some sort that could make pain receptors completely unfunctional meaning that they couldn't send any type of messages to the brain therefore the brain wouldn't be able to make pain when needed.

I was once riding a scooter really fast on the sidewalk. I lost balance and fell face first onto the pavement. My braces gave me a big cut on my mouth. I got up and thought well that felt weird true story

Get a fake hand and block your friends hand from view. Start to rub the hands gently to give an illusion then punch the fake hand the mind will get tricked by this and think the fake hand is real
