Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
Travel into the brain to see how its network of neurons transmit your thoughts and what factors determine how quickly you think. Your mortal enemy has captured you and hooked you up to a bizarre experiment. He s extended your nervous system with one very long neuron to a target about 70 meters away. At some point, he s going to fire an arrow. If you can then think a thought to the target before the arrow hits it, he ll let you go. So who wins that race? Seena Mathew examines the speed of thought

One time, i was infront of parked truck and wanting to cross the road, I was in a hurry and I didn't bother looking at the right bcuz the truck was blocking the view when suddenly I saw a glimpse of light on my right then immediately dodged a fast moving car, like it was so close i needed to bend my body to avoid the side mirror.

I will never understand why most of those videos are not using the SI (International Unit System. i mean are those videos targeted only to the USA? Bring the knowledge to the rest of the world, make it accessible to the majority of the world population with SI, please!

Just start thinking something (like a song) before the arrow even fires and you'll be fine regardless of how fast your neurons transmit.

Our brain have to process what we seeing. That means we kind of living 200 milliseconds in the past. Man this video is so interesting

Ted Ed is literally answering all the questions I have but never got an actual answer I understand from my parents or other people.

The animation reminds me of those French cartoons popular in India like zig and sharko, the Daltons, Oggy and the cockroaches etc.

I guess now we know approximately how fast Hugi must have been when he raced Pjalfi in the myth of Utgard Loki. Very fast.
