@@Darkloid21 I think you're speaking of the faulty notion that the left and right hemispheres of the brain had isolated characteristics such as the left hemisphere being more logical and the right side being more creative. That idea was more or less disproven as electrical patterns observed under live MRI scans showed equal activity in both hemispheres regardless of whether a person recalled truthful data or created fabrications. At least that was one of the studies I was familiar with. However that isn't to say that, different parts of the brain don't actually have different functions and that one hemisphere couldn't hold a function the other couldn't. The ability to speak is usually reserved to the hemisphere that contains both Wernicke's Area and Broca's Area which for most people is located on the left hemisphere, meaning the right side of the body reserves the ability of speech. In corpus callosum surgery where the hemispheres are separated, the left side of the body is observed to be mute. Since it can no longer instantly communicate with the other hemisphere, it will often "disagree" with its other side. I don't know if I would go as far as to say they are separate entities after separation as Grey suggests, but Left/Right brain specialization, at least in this context, is a valid and recognized phenomenon. Grey is not promoting pseudoscience here, there are a number of interesting case studies with videos you can look up on youtube if you have the time and I'd encourage you to take a looksie. :)
One of the really interesting aspects in split brain patients is this: There have been cases in which one brainhalf was devoutly religous while the other was an atheist.
Left: "There once was a pale man with dark hair who was very lonely." Right "Why was he lonely?" Left: "No matter how many others he surrounded himself with they could never truly know him as he knew himself." Right: "Did he resent them?" Left: "No, one day he took a blade and split himself in two, right, down, the middle" Right: "So he would always have a friend?" Left: "So he would always have a friend."
And my left brain's verbal communication skills (along with my right brain's nonverbal skills) are questionable, therefore my social skills are questionable. Lovely right?!

Not the same storywise, but check out Blindsight by Peter Watts. That book touches on various things like multiple personalities, consciousness and free will. It's a bit of a mindfuck.
Honestly there are a lot of things i would love to try but are just too risky, including this one, which is why i kinda fantasize about the idea of having some kind of immersive VR that would work this way
I understand this video is simplified for general audiences but it's frustrating as someone with a background in psychology and neuroscience. It's not that there are two brains, your brain is one organ with two halves that communicate to create your experience of consciousness. What then happens in split-brain patients is that because the left and right hemispheres can't communicate, they experience two slightly different versions of their reality. Again, super simplified but it's an important distinction. Because the idea of the right hemisphere as a separate entity from the left is purely science fiction. Also the left hemisphere can process faces just fine, the ffa is a bilateral structure.

@@ObservantDog Darth Vader:"I am your father... Oh you aren't Luke, this is so embarrassing. Act like this didn't happen, else I will suffocate you. Actually I will do it anyway! "
What I think is that despite the halves of your brain being separate, you are still one entity. They are just functionally separate, but the sum of their mechanisms and coordinations creates the experience that is you.
@Ayah Awad The left brain is responsible for speech, but the right brain is responsible for writing. See at 3:04, the left side of the body (controlled by the right brain) is writing. So nietLars effectively had his left brain tell his right brain to apologise to itself on left brain's behalf.
@@DarkPortall Not quite true. Studies of victims of accidents where part of or a whole hemisphere of their brain was damaged have shown that one hemisphere CAN pick up skills (e.g. speech) which are generally assigned to the other hemisphere, especially if the subject is young. The plasticity of the human brain is astonishing.
@@avw5kt here's also something cool. The sound of this video is split into two. One monotone base line with the same beat throughout the video. The other ear has cymbals and piano and high notes sparkling about randomly in a pleasant manner. If you have an earphone or headset that does surround sound or just a left and right aux, you can notice this when you take one off and listen to the other and doing the same on the other side. And then half way it switches. And then it switched again for a third time.
when you realize that stoners telling you to connect with your inner self and expand your feelings was just them saying have a convo with right brain and see what they think on the matter
This was actually super helpful for people with depression to realize that it's literally impossible to be alone. I wonder if that's why people who meditate frequently are more intelligent? Because as long as their brains not split maybe something about meditation helps right brain talk?
I remember when I was riding my bike towards a small intersection, I was kind of tuned out, just passively keeping track of the street and parked cars in front of me. I knew I was going too fast to comfortably round the corner, and I didn't know if the intersection was red. So without moving my eyes, just tuning in to my periphery, I saw the little red hand showing on the pole. There's a corner up ahead, I need to pull the breaks a bit, and in my periphery I see my hand open and close onto the brakes. But the thing is, I didn't brake because of the light, and I didn't check the light because braking brought me back into the moment. I made those decisions simultaneously. When I think back, I have two memories. One where in the lower corner of my vision my hand stretches out and hits the brakes, and another where in the upper corner of my vision I see the dark green traffic pole with the red hand showing solid. And I remember the moment immediately following was me realizing that I had just had that happen. I know my eyes never moved, and yet the memory with the breaks has no visuals on the light, and the memory with the light has no view of the brakes

Lmao, I think every commenter missed the joke, as did I for like 2 whole minutes while trying to think of a funny way to tell you that the right brain is mute. Hold your horses is the comment God would've made. Well done, sir. Wait... Is that you God?
The split does not split your personality. Just decisionmaking. Youre still the same person but both halfs of you are separated making decisions done not by both halfs instead of one and both can disagree with each other. Im fascinated by this as i would really love to have a split brain just to understand myself better. It allows you to see more than just the surface of your thoughts and many decisions and disagreements are simply because you yourself dont know what to do so both halfs disagree trying to make the choice fir you. After all your behaviour never changes. You are you no matter what will happen to the brain because scientists still cannot point out what makes you.. you.
@@raphael_santiago i actually spoke to my friend about that few times by the 7 momths and he agrees with me. The reason this is happening is because both halves need to coordinate your decisionmaking. Splitting this ability in half makes you do more than one decision. If the theory of two personalities was real there would be more signs than were actually explained. There is a lot in this video going unspoken. The theory i say is widely accepted as the reason as there is no sign of a second personality inside other than different decisions. They may seem odd to the person who experiences it because they conciousness is able to grasp only one idea at a time. Its much like thinming. Try to think about two things at the same time. Impossible isnt it? Splitting your brain allows you for that but you dont really have the ability to use both halves separately due to the way the whole life you relied on it being whole. And by this unable to split your attention to both. Its like when you do a random thing and dont even understand why you did that. It happems often. Ever took spoon by mistake instead of a fork? Said something you did not want to? Its the same thing. Both halves having a idea but only one going throught. As complicated as our brain is there is not even a exact source of our conciousness or where it is set in the brain but trust me. If you say that there is two of you to anyone who works with this subject he will laugh. Brain is a complicated tool that works coordinated. Imagine your brain as a server. All data going through it both ways to coordinate it. If you severe conection between its parts the parts will not stop working but no longer will be able to know what the other part wants to do and will do their own thing. There is a lot of thing you could compare it to and every single one makes a clesrer picthre that this anomaly is nothing special. Its even a bad thing as it limits your capabilities as you sre limited to two halves not one whole of your complete processing power. While interesting i feel sorry for anyone who needs to deal with things like that.
This is one of the few things that actually creeps me out. Not in a bad way, but in a "do I know myself? No, I dont" way. There is a part of me that is locked away that I can't communicate with. The only way to find it is a surgery that permanently changes who I am. I just don't like the whole situation, but am at the same time fascinated by it.
You are in constant communication with it, people who do not manage to [basically] balance the relationship in a coordinated enough fashion end up in psychiatric care. If you can type with two hands and they make about the same amount of mistakes etc then there is an ok chance you have a perfectly healthy relationship with YOUR SELF>.
Only people with split brains can’t communicate the right brain with the left brain. I guessing your brain isn’t cut, so your right brain is communicating with your left brain and you’re using both, so don’t worry.
I feel like consciousness is like a soup. If you put it into two bowls you have 2 soups, but combining them gives 1 soup. Soup’s definition also is pretty vague, like consciousness

Imagine having a split brain, and you ask someone to share a secret, but they only whisper it in one ear so half of your brain never hears and doesn’t know the secret, and is super frustrated that the other half does.
I have brain damage to the right side of my brain, and I find all of this really interesting. While I don't have the "split" effect like shown here, I can't do a lot of the things the right brain does. For example, I can't recognise faces, I have problems with memory and attention, I have no concept of time or distance, and I fail to recognise things on my left side.
@@spiralingsphere3785 well, they are talking about some pretty serious damage that happened. Also, given the candor of the statement, I imagine it's been a while since it happened. So, in short, probably no.
I think stuff like this disproves the “there are two people in your head” thing. I think a more reasonable explanation is just that because your brain’s halves have been separated there’s a bit of a misalignment between your conscious, subconscious, and other brain functions. Both halves are still fully connected to your nervous system, they just lose that communication with each other that would allow you as a person to function efficiently. Think of it as two halves of a computer designated to different functions, you aren’t two people, just two machines.
Have no fear, Grey has pulled a reverse "Humans need not apply", He is hiring humans to increase production. We may see 2 videos a month once grey industries is up and running like an autonomous Tesla.
The fact that even Grey couldn’t pronounce kurzgesagt brings solace to me! My left brain is, in fact, being mind blown as I watch this! If there are any more in depth videos on how they conducted the tests, the physical procedure, or their findings, I’d greatly appreciate anyone who pointed me in that direction! Mesmerizing concept and awesome video. Just wow
He is wrong because the right brain can simply write "I am here left brain and you can't deny my existence" and there are even people who are born with split-brain and they are totally synchronized. We are the users of the brain, We are not the brain.
@@merlenclownshuffles But they can write with both hands, So if the two split brains can write they can communicate. And that showcases we are not the brain.
I’ve heard a lot of people aren’t able to talk to themselves or have audible thoughts by themselves. Like how a anime character an he heard talking to themselves by the audience, I can do that too but some people can’t and didn’t even know you could Inner monologue is a hell of a thing
As long as there is not a split beyond that, I'd say you're in perfect mental health. I often find myself responding verbally to communication presumably coming across the corpus callosum. I just wish I would keep from blabbing the responses to the world :P
Omg! MY idea is (and ngl brain surgery scares me 🙃) BUT why don’t we get surgery that would change it to whatever other side that isn’t having the seizures- if at all possible??? I am so tired of having them 😩
Im curious what would happen if someone with split brains would be given 2 pens and an eyepatch and you would ask him/them while getting one eye off a written question and ask for response in writing and repeat. That would be weird but i think you would have a conversation made with words, symbols and drawing
fenafeses hey who says the left brain isn't smart? You actually have to be highly advanced to conduct speech Note: edited from "right" to "left" cause oops
Actually, they didn't really mention it, but left brain, which you are thinking of as the airhead in the relationship is actually the logical half of your brain. Mute, eye-rolling, face recognizing right brain is primarily responsible for emotion, art, and sensation. So if we're going for book smarts, your child-like left brain is actually smarter. I suppose he just doesn't know how to deal with something that doesn't have an explanation, so he just makes one up if he doesn't have one :D
I keep coming back to this video and I just realized that this could explain “intrusive thoughts” it’s thoughts the other you are having that you’re trying to suppress
There's actually language processing on both hemispheres, there just tends to be *more* of it on one side, and after you cut the connection between the two halves of the frontal lobe things get...finicky.
@@DavidJPence Probably? I've not heard of anyone trying that experiment, so be aware it's all speculation. I have heard that stuttering happens because the language processing centers on both sides of your brain are firing out of sync with each other. No idea if that's true, but it sort of makes sense from my layman's perspective.
Man if i ever become a scientist one day imma get one person with split brains, teach them sign language and take notes of what right brain has to say about having somebody else in the head
@@wallacebertolaccini7139 I am us, you are them. Mine is probably the right hemisphere? I keep forgetting my friend's names, well they're twins but have differences but I don't know which ones which
@@kennethtimorang8343 2:35 that's the left brain that has problems with names and faces... Right brain seems to have all of the other useful skills, while left brain gets to write checks that neither side of the brain can pay for by opening its mouth... By the way, left brain is also the more emotional one, as where the right is more logical of the two...
This explains why when you're having a conversation (either with yourself or whoever) time seems to pass faster, your left hemisphere is being more conscious than your right (which is in charge of the notion of space and time). When you're bored instead, your right hemisphere is being more conscious than your left (since you're more aware of time and space)... 🧠🌟
Would this mean that if someone had their hemispheres separated while also being blind in only their right eye then they would claim that they were blind despite being able to walk around normally.
so to bake your noodle a bit more, basic walking can be coordinated by the spinal cord, and the reason we know this, is because of experiments with cats, when the connection between the spine and brain were cut where signals travel for walking, the cats could walk on a treadmill if the ground moved under them...
Each half of the brain is connected to both eyes, but sees half the image from each: left brain sees the right half from both eyes and right brain sees the left side from both eyes. I'd assume they didn't cut the optic nerves when they did the surgery mentioned in this video, but could find details about it. Also, for the experiments mentioned in this video they didn't ask the person to close one eye or the other, they just made sure that the person focused on the middle and placed things on the right or left.
Left brain: Oh boy, what an interesting video, what do you think about it, brother? Right brain: *looks at left brain with anger as he can't answer the question*

After reading the comment I looked to the left acting like it just happened in my head without even knowing the right brain was being mad at the left brain. Don't question what I did after reading the comment.
I've got a weird thing for some of you to try. I really wanted to learn how to lucid dream recently and remembered this video from years back. I decided "ah what the hell it's worth a shot" and started talking out loud to myself in bed, almost communicating to the other half of my brain. I asked him/her/it to help me lucid dream and a few days later I had my first ever lucid dream. I know it could be a placebo or just results showing after I have been trying to lucid dream for a while, but it felt great. Today I stood in front of the mirror and ended up talking to "myself" for about 10 minutes, telling myself about my life's goals and ambitions, and how I need help with achieving them. I thanked the other half of my brain for helping me lucid dream and I want to see if this actually works. It could be crazy and I indeed may need a shrink now looool talking to myself. But also on the off chance that this is true and it works, I'd be really happy if I discovered it. I also spoke to myself like I'm genuinely speaking to someone, with the belief and conviction someone is there entirely listening to everything you say, it's strange when you don't hear a response but weirdly I feel like I felt a response (I am aware that I could entirely be feeling this myself and it can just be my own confirmation bias but it seemed to help). I also felt really happy after talking to myself, maybe my other half felt glad it got some recognition loool. Feels like this could be a plot of black mirror or something. Maybe I'm crazy too but it strangely doesn't feel that way. My thinking is if there are in fact two of you, why don't you use both of you to make your goals easier? Also the comments on this video tell me there's a lot of open minded people who are more likely to accept this than for me to tell a random stranger haha Basically, if you do try it, start with a smaller goal you have in mind, see if it works out, try to evaluate as subjectively as you can if it was placebo or not, and maybe move onto bigger ones and see if the work is a bit easier. I'd love to hear thoughts and responses, thanks for taking the time to read this.
This genuinely wants me to go through this myself so that I can have a better understanding of this. It sounds so weird and crazy that my own brain(s) can’t comprehend what it would be like without experiencing it for oneself.
+Brandon dehart what's interesting is that there's a mental condition that inhibits a person's ability to process the concept of "left." To them, nothing to the left of their center of mass exists.
This is creepy, but calling it creepy means I’m calling myself creepy. And I’m disrespecting my other brain who has been with my speaking brain this entire time. Calling the part of you that has helped you big time throughout your life ‘creepy’ is kinda disrespectful.

I understand this video is simplified for general audiences but it's frustrating as someone with a background in psychology and neuroscience. It's not that there are two brains, your brain is one organ with two halves that communicate to create your experience of consciousness. What then happens in split-brain patients is that because the left and right hemispheres can't communicate, they experience two slightly different versions of their reality. Again, super simplified but it's an important distinction. Because the idea of the right hemisphere as a separate entity from the left is purely science fiction.
Also the left hemisphere can process faces just fine, the ffa is a bilateral structure.
This makes me feel bad for Right-brain. I think I'll start acknowledging him more often.
That’s just the right brain thinking

@@angelwhispers2060 Unless you have a hemispherectomy.
I remember when I was riding my bike towards a small intersection, I was kind of tuned out, just passively keeping track of the street and parked cars in front of me. I knew I was going too fast to comfortably round the corner, and I didn't know if the intersection was red.
So without moving my eyes, just tuning in to my periphery, I saw the little red hand showing on the pole.
There's a corner up ahead, I need to pull the breaks a bit, and in my periphery I see my hand open and close onto the brakes.
But the thing is, I didn't brake because of the light, and I didn't check the light because braking brought me back into the moment.
I made those decisions simultaneously. When I think back, I have two memories. One where in the lower corner of my vision my hand stretches out and hits the brakes, and another where in the upper corner of my vision I see the dark green traffic pole with the red hand showing solid. And I remember the moment immediately following was me realizing that I had just had that happen. I know my eyes never moved, and yet the memory with the breaks has no visuals on the light, and the memory with the light has no view of the brakes

The split does not split your personality. Just decisionmaking. Youre still the same person but both halfs of you are separated making decisions done not by both halfs instead of one and both can disagree with each other. Im fascinated by this as i would really love to have a split brain just to understand myself better. It allows you to see more than just the surface of your thoughts and many decisions and disagreements are simply because you yourself dont know what to do so both halfs disagree trying to make the choice fir you. After all your behaviour never changes. You are you no matter what will happen to the brain because scientists still cannot point out what makes you.. you.
I see.Thanks.
Plausible hypothesis but don't phrase your hypotheses as facts.
@@raphael_santiago i actually spoke to my friend about that few times by the 7 momths and he agrees with me. The reason this is happening is because both halves need to coordinate your decisionmaking. Splitting this ability in half makes you do more than one decision. If the theory of two personalities was real there would be more signs than were actually explained. There is a lot in this video going unspoken. The theory i say is widely accepted as the reason as there is no sign of a second personality inside other than different decisions. They may seem odd to the person who experiences it because they conciousness is able to grasp only one idea at a time. Its much like thinming. Try to think about two things at the same time. Impossible isnt it? Splitting your brain allows you for that but you dont really have the ability to use both halves separately due to the way the whole life you relied on it being whole. And by this unable to split your attention to both. Its like when you do a random thing and dont even understand why you did that. It happems often. Ever took spoon by mistake instead of a fork? Said something you did not want to? Its the same thing. Both halves having a idea but only one going throught. As complicated as our brain is there is not even a exact source of our conciousness or where it is set in the brain but trust me. If you say that there is two of you to anyone who works with this subject he will laugh. Brain is a complicated tool that works coordinated. Imagine your brain as a server. All data going through it both ways to coordinate it. If you severe conection between its parts the parts will not stop working but no longer will be able to know what the other part wants to do and will do their own thing. There is a lot of thing you could compare it to and every single one makes a clesrer picthre that this anomaly is nothing special. Its even a bad thing as it limits your capabilities as you sre limited to two halves not one whole of your complete processing power. While interesting i feel sorry for anyone who needs to deal with things like that.

The only way to find it is a surgery that permanently changes who I am. I just don't like the whole situation, but am at the same time fascinated by it.
You are in constant communication with it, people who do not manage to [basically] balance the relationship in a coordinated enough fashion end up in psychiatric care. If you can type with two hands and they make about the same amount of mistakes etc then there is an ok chance you have a perfectly healthy relationship with YOUR SELF>.
You could close your right eye and write with your left hand.
Only people with split brains can’t communicate the right brain with the left brain. I guessing your brain isn’t cut, so your right brain is communicating with your left brain and you’re using both, so don’t worry.

I have a couple of these things but the reason for me is that I dont always pay attention to stuff
Guess ignorance is scarier than I thought…
I think stuff like this disproves the “there are two people in your head” thing. I think a more reasonable explanation is just that because your brain’s halves have been separated there’s a bit of a misalignment between your conscious, subconscious, and other brain functions. Both halves are still fully connected to your nervous system, they just lose that communication with each other that would allow you as a person to function efficiently. Think of it as two halves of a computer designated to different functions, you aren’t two people, just two machines.

This explains why when you're having a conversation (either with yourself or whoever) time seems to pass faster, your left hemisphere is being more conscious than your right (which is in charge of the notion of space and time). When you're bored instead, your right hemisphere is being more conscious than your left (since you're more aware of time and space)... 🧠🌟
I have been calling myself "we" for a while now and I thank you for giving me an excuse not to have to go through the trouble of fixing it.
Oh ive just been doing it becuse me and my bros have been living in the same guy's mind for a while now

Would this mean that if someone had their hemispheres separated while also being blind in only their right eye then they would claim that they were blind despite being able to walk around normally.
*EXCUSE ME, WHAT?!!*
They probably did this experiment (covering the right eye, not blinding it)
Damn
so to bake your noodle a bit more, basic walking can be coordinated by the spinal cord, and the reason we know this, is because of experiments with cats, when the connection between the spine and brain were cut where signals travel for walking, the cats could walk on a treadmill if the ground moved under them...
Each half of the brain is connected to both eyes, but sees half the image from each: left brain sees the right half from both eyes and right brain sees the left side from both eyes. I'd assume they didn't cut the optic nerves when they did the surgery mentioned in this video, but could find details about it. Also, for the experiments mentioned in this video they didn't ask the person to close one eye or the other, they just made sure that the person focused on the middle and placed things on the right or left.

After reading the comment I looked to the left acting like it just happened in my head without even knowing the right brain was being mad at the left brain.
Don't question what I did after reading the comment.
Right brain: _laughs at the comment_
Left brain: *stares akwardly*
I've got a weird thing for some of you to try. I really wanted to learn how to lucid dream recently and remembered this video from years back. I decided "ah what the hell it's worth a shot" and started talking out loud to myself in bed, almost communicating to the other half of my brain. I asked him/her/it to help me lucid dream and a few days later I had my first ever lucid dream. I know it could be a placebo or just results showing after I have been trying to lucid dream for a while, but it felt great.
Today I stood in front of the mirror and ended up talking to "myself" for about 10 minutes, telling myself about my life's goals and ambitions, and how I need help with achieving them. I thanked the other half of my brain for helping me lucid dream and I want to see if this actually works. It could be crazy and I indeed may need a shrink now looool talking to myself. But also on the off chance that this is true and it works, I'd be really happy if I discovered it. I also spoke to myself like I'm genuinely speaking to someone, with the belief and conviction someone is there entirely listening to everything you say, it's strange when you don't hear a response but weirdly I feel like I felt a response (I am aware that I could entirely be feeling this myself and it can just be my own confirmation bias but it seemed to help). I also felt really happy after talking to myself, maybe my other half felt glad it got some recognition loool. Feels like this could be a plot of black mirror or something. Maybe I'm crazy too but it strangely doesn't feel that way. My thinking is if there are in fact two of you, why don't you use both of you to make your goals easier? Also the comments on this video tell me there's a lot of open minded people who are more likely to accept this than for me to tell a random stranger haha
Basically, if you do try it, start with a smaller goal you have in mind, see if it works out, try to evaluate as subjectively as you can if it was placebo or not, and maybe move onto bigger ones and see if the work is a bit easier. I'd love to hear thoughts and responses, thanks for taking the time to read this.
I've been trying to lucid dream for a while with no success, I'll have to try that! Maybe right-brain can help me out there.
EchoFlower Productions to lucid dream what id do is lay naked in a tub without water.
Thats sooo cool 🤩
ive been trying to lucid dream and i'll use this! thank you!
If your brain has not been split, right brain already knows what left brain is doing. In a way, you're literally telepathic.
When you tap your head after thinking of something smart it’s just left brain giving itself a shoutout.
*right brain
actually i only tap my head with my left hand so clearly its right brain saying hey i thought of that!
Soooo... like DID
@@Mcskittelybiscuts if you tap with the left you’re praising the left side of your brain no?
@@salex354 No, the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body and vice versa. I know it’s confusing but that’s how it works.
This genuinely wants me to go through this myself so that I can have a better understanding of this. It sounds so weird and crazy that my own brain(s) can’t comprehend what it would be like without experiencing it for oneself.
that is your left brain talking (typing?)
So my brain runs in SLI?
AyyMD

Thought the same thing.
Where can I buy more bridges? I want to go 4 way.

* right brain roll eyes *
Just the left eye.
Or Split
+Brandon dehart what's interesting is that there's a mental condition that inhibits a person's ability to process the concept of "left." To them, nothing to the left of their center of mass exists.
This is creepy, but calling it creepy means I’m calling myself creepy. And I’m disrespecting my other brain who has been with my speaking brain this entire time. Calling the part of you that has helped you big time throughout your life ‘creepy’ is kinda disrespectful.
thats what your left brain wants you to think
Is right brain writing this, or left, or both?
@@Choco____1 left with right's input. As is normal with uncut brains.
I wish my brains will explode at the same time
I feel bad for my right side lmao
