I saw this video almost a year ago. Pretty much forgot the whole content except this particular topic, considering I watched a lot of different documentaries one after the other. Put it simply 6 seconds before we come into conclusive decision - a part in the brain - that seem to be "Not Me" has registered it early and "I" don't know it. In my understanding 6 seconds is very very very long time. Driving a car at high speed in the highway behind another car only needs split second to decide, to live or to die, not 6 seconds.
But thankfully, I did say to always think as We instead of I, did I not? Have fun with "your" brain. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6S9OidmNZM&feature=player_embedded |
