    honestly I think it’s less “it’s amazing how little of our brains we use” and more “it’s amazing the level of elasticity the brain has even in adulthood”. a lot of times, surviving sections of the brain will repurpose themselves to complete the necessary tasks, even if it’s a minuscule amount in comparison. of course it does depend on the severity of the injury and where it happened, but that’s why victims of strokes and such can usually regain at least some if not all of whatever they lost (movement, speech, etc)

My mother died in 1992 after a haemorrhage, and a couple of years later a hero of mine, Davie Cooper also passed away from one. Clarke's strength of character shouldn't be discounted either, to survive two is fantastic. Tough woman.

Haemorrhages can occur when these aneurysm eventually rupture, but depending on the site and size of the aneurysm, the haemorrhage can have different consequences. For example, if it occurs in the subarachnoid space like OP mentions, it is as dangerous as it can possibly get and needs urgent care.

But I'll never have the abilities I was born with. But I'm okay. I've adapted over the 55 years since the two strokes I had. The brain is very flexible in learning new tasks. Just have to work on it.

    "It just kind of shows how little of our brains we actually use," - Actually, it shows how resilient and adaptive the brain is. If, for example, you lose a finger, the parts of your brain that feel that finger, that move that finger, that sense where that finger is, all get remapped to existing areas of the hand near that finger and those areas near where that finger was, become more sensitive because they now have a more brain-power devoted to them.
    Back in the late 90s, they did a study where they took a kitten, shortly after birth, disconnected the optic nerve and instead of running it to the visual cortex, rerouted it (part of it, not all of it, because that isn't feasible) to the audio cortex.
    So the eyes were connected to the hearing center. While the cat didn't have great vision, it still had vision. The brain was able to adapt.
    Her brain simply reroutes things and stores stuff in different areas, to make up for the areas that are now dead. I'd also point out all the people who have had HUGE portions of their brains removed and are still very functional.
    To be clear, if you remove certain areas in certain people, it just needs to be a few crucial neurons, that can be the end. But if, by chance, the damage misses all the really vital stuff, the brain can adapt.

      So true! It's a myth that we only use one part of our brain. We actually use all of it, every part has a function. But as you say, the brain is extremely good at adapting. Though she is quite lucky, as from what I've seen working at a traumatic brain injury rehabilitation unit some bleeds result in serious reduction in both motor and cognitive function.

    Watching this is so crazy to me - I remember watching older interviews talking about her issues years back and not really remembering what happened to her until watching this video. I'm 23 and just had an unruptured brain aneurysm (found because it leaked one night in February) stented in May. After learning all about them, she really is so lucky to have survived a hemorrhage. My neurosurgeon told me that if there's a rupture, off the bat the survival rate is between 30-50%. 80% of people who survive are permanently disabled. I'm so happy to see her on the other side of things. My surgery was the same as hers just without the coil and only the stent and I ended up bleeding out from my groin where they put the catheter and had to get emergency surgery right after (I just moved wrong after but the brain surgery itself went fine). Life is a precious, rare thing.

    I had a teacher in high-school who had an aneurysm during a class. The students who had her before said she was vastly different after the aneurysm. She was more irritable and less steady on her feet. She was still able to talk and walk but she wasn't understandably able to dance as well.
    The brain is a fascinating organ and we are always discovering new things about it.

      One of my best friends had several aneurysms at once over a decade ago. He got very lucky in that it did cause him major issues, though his short term memory suffered a lot. However, personality wise, for a very long time he was far more naive and he also suffered balance issues - though these have improved with time. It's a shame, as he used to do gymnastics and MMA and is in sheer disbelief he was ever able to do flips and the like.

    I had a former coworker die from an anuyrism.
    His wife, daughter and son-in--law all worked together at the car dealership with him.
    One day he said he didn't feel well and was going home early, but suffered an anuyrism in the locker room and was pronounced dead 10 minutes later by the emergency squad.
    His name was Davy Bowles and was one of the nicest people I've ever met.
    Enjoy every day and remember to tell people you love them.

      @avanelletheclockfriend2515 2 года назад +5

      @Trinity M It’s not “feeling the need to correct everyone” if it’s stating a fact, though. We do use almost every part of the brain. While some parts are used far less or for more niche things, that doesn’t mean they aren’t used at all, especially when it comes to how different parts of the brain interact with one another. Even most simple activities require almost all parts of the brain to be active.
      Throwing a ball is a good example; to scratch the surface it involves:
      -motor skills(picking up the ball, holding the ball, keeping balance, physically throwing the ball, spatial awareness)
      -decision making(to throw it in the first place, how to do so, where to throw it, when)
      -sensory processing assuming normal functionality(identifying it is a ball, comprehending the appearance, texture, weight, etc of the ball, maybe also sound, perhaps taste and smell in cases such as a toddler playing with a new toy)
      -many other miscellaneous things(reasoning leading to throwing the ball, expectations of what will happen and/or possible consequences, emotions being experienced prompting/during the ball throw, thoughts before/while throwing the ball, environmental and social awareness)
      -basic bodily functions controlled by the brain unconsciously(heartbeat, breathing, blinking, sensory processing unrelated to intentional interaction, hormones and other chemical signals, energy management, regulating blood flow to the arm(s), etc)
      Now consider the above if the scenario is an individual playing catch with someone and holding a conversation with that other person. Or driving and listening to the radio. Or getting tutoring. It’s easy to generalize such things as only using a few parts of the brain, but that’s because we generally don’t consider just how much goes into doing things. Me typing this comment, I made the decision to do it, I read and comprehended not just what you said but what I am typing as well, I saw my screen and felt it and heard my fingers tapping and smelled food being burnt downstairs, I had to move my arms and fingers to tap the letters to spell out the words to create sentences to get a message across following English syntax, because I read something and felt an emotion towards it and wanted to give my own input, and those are just the conscious aspects of this one simple activity.
      There is no activity that requires consciousness but doesn’t use most of the brain. Humans speak because we feel or believe things and want to share that with others; we have experiences that influence how we think and why we react a certain way to a certain thing, or how and why we phrase thoughts in a particular way; our brain controls not just psychological activities but the physical parts of our bodies that let us vocalize in a comprehensible manner, and experience the world so as to know what to respond to. It is true that much of the brain isn’t absolutely required for survival, and that it can cope with losing surprisingly large portions. However being able to live without something doesn’t make it unimportant, or else I’m sure people would feel very different about lobotomies.

    • @mechanomics2649
      @mechanomics2649 2 года назад

      @Trinity M No, she is not correct. We use all of our brain. If we didn't then far fewer people would be affected by brain injuries and our bodies would not dedicate so many resources to the entire brain. This's to completely leave aside all of the scans that show otherwise.
      Stop feeling the need to correct anyone if you cannot even be bothered to do a cursory google search, professor.

      Well, we use every part of our brain, but not at 100% force. In a way, just like we don't use our muscles at 100% capacity (because it would damage the body). Anyways, regarding the brain stuff, I think the brain is purposefully designed this way because we wouldn't able to support more big think power. The brain consumes 40% of our energy or so and increasing the activity of our brain will most likely come with negatives such as being mentally tired all the time, sleepy, increased need for food, etc. Thinking hard is exhausting, imagine you do it 24/7. But I don't know for sure, ofc, since I didn't study brain science.
      Just some 2 cents of mine.
