The Keeps logo is actually REALLY clever. It's a castle keep, a comb, and a beard/flat-top of a ginger man. It evokes Bart Simpson's hair and a crown of beautiful locks, but it's also just... a couple spikey bits.
Have a look into Havana Syndrome , looks like current day Russia FSB is using some type of microwave based weapon to cause brain injuries of diplomats in US Embassies around the world ( started in Havana Cuba but reports of similar effects now coming in from other parts of the world and only being targetted at US Embassies )
12:46 something else that's very interesting is all of a sudden after the movie The Aviator (about Howard Hughes) came out tons of famous people and regular people all of a sudden claimed to have OCD and similar disorders, an episode on that would be interesting.
I was working on a street repair crew, filling potholes in a residential neighborhood when my coworkers moved quickly away from the area we were filling. I turned around and saw an elderly woman with a floral hat on her head. Just like she was going to church or a Sunday tea. I thought my coworkers were rude and odd for moving away so quickly. I decided to say hello to the woman and be pleasant. What a mistake! This woman started screaming and crying at me saying the government was transmitting radio messages into her head and I was there to kidnap her for the government. As she kept yelling at me she took off her hat to reveal a aluminum foil hat. She told me the metal wasn’t working anymore. And I was there to finally pick her up and deliver her to the CIA. I backed up and moved away from the woman and then ripped my coworkers new posteriors for leaving me there. They knew all about her and thought it was a great prank.
She's probably aware she's got a problem that seriously interferes with having the normal life she wants to live, And thinks she has found out the cause and solution. It's unlikely, but, if a better (in her mind) solution comes around she might find a way to the new one - provided it's not a physical thing like brain injury or some sort of chemical imbalance. Poor soul.
I did canvassing work for Greenpeace in downtown Denver for a minute. There are a LOT of street people like that lady; I had a little old lady tell me that God was mad that we put our pipes and plumbing in Antarctica because it's clearly off-limits to human activity by divine decree, and that we should be awaiting His holy wrath. It's sad there's no real safety net for these people; the tent cities out here have tripled, at least, since the pandemic began. With relatively mentally healthy poor people being ignored wholesale now the situation seems even more hopeless for those that literally cannot help themselves.
The actual page itself is pretty hilarious and worthwhile to seek out. It's right up there with the NASA instructions for viking attacks. True Internet classics.
I get auditory hallucinations. When I lived in an apartment, I just figured it was my neighbor playing music slightly too loud. After moving to a house, I realized it was all in my head, so I now counter it by sleeping with my own music running. I've spoken with my therapist about the whole thing, and he agrees that it is fairly common, nothing to worry about unless getting 'distressing messages'.
Way back in the day we used to wrap tin foil around TV antennas to get better reception. So wouldn’t a tin foil had INCREASE the power of those evil mind control rays?
Tech Ingredients did a good video called Defeating Microwave We*pons which showcases how a Farraday cage is effective against against microwave radiation. Aluminum foil can transfer radio waves but will prevent or impede them from penetrating.
In this video, Simon actually describes an experiment that shows that for certain frequencies, especially those used by the cell phone networks, yes, they do.
If you wrapped foil around the antenna wires you would reduce static and interference. Maybe those Aldebaran mind-control rays are deflected the same way.
If you're hearing voices, step one would be to check the batteries in your carbon monoxide detector. If you're still hearing voices, a psychiatrist is your next step. I'm bipolar & had a psychotic breakdown a few years ago. Heard voices, saw things that weren't there, thought Adele was sending secret messages through her songs (I'm into metal & hiphop, so this was particularly weird) thought the CIA was after me (in my flat, in England, lol), the works. Persecution delusions in particular - ie, people being after you, are the most common in disorders like bipolar, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, etc
All of these people who claim to be getting “secret transmissions” and the like are obviously dealing with some undiagnosed mental illness. It’s pretty obvious when we have overwhelming evidence that hearing voices is a sign of mental illness, whereas there’s no evidence to support secret radio signals or whatever. I sincerely hope these people are able to get some professional help bc they need it. Glad to hear that you overcame your own issues too, mental health is nothing to stigmatize or ignore.
@CIA,DOE,NSA,DOD, & Research Institutes test on You you have to be a special kind of evil to hijack the post of someone, who opens up about their mental health, to spout your BS and try to make people question reality.
10-20 years ago and even now people mock fibromyalgia sufferers. They said people were exaggerating or plainly faking symptoms of the disease. As someone who suffers from these and lupus..it took over 10 years for doctors to give me the right diagnosis. I was an active soccer and softball player during my early teens until around 16. I developed severe pain in my legs.. so bad all I could do was ball up and cry myself to sleep. Doctors ran test after test and guessed it was some kind of arthritis or mixed tissue disease. None of the treatments or medications worked. I saw several doctors who accused me of faking and drug seeking. I looked up fibromyalgia and a lot of my symptoms matched but all my doctors blew it off. It wasnt until I was 27 that the diagnosis of lupus was made. 2 years following that I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I still struggle with pain and weakness every day and it affects my life in a lot of ways. I don't know if they electromagnetic sensitivity is real or not but I know how it feels for doctors to mock your pain. Even making jokes about you to the other staff in the clinic. Its disheartening and at times I didn't want to live anymore. Luckily a doctor took me seriously 7 years ago and it changed my world. My heart goes out to all that suffer from illness.. you are strong but you dont have to stay strong all the time. Its okay to break down and feel bad. Dont let people in your life make you feel like you cant be vulnerable in front of them. If it makes them uncomfortable than they weren't good friends in the first place. You are only human and you need people around you thats supportive.... that accept you as you are. 💕💕💕 Good luck and bless you.
I don't know how Simon manages to look so fresh and energetic even when he's being held hostage and pumped with drugs and forced to make a thousand videos a week.
I used to work in the electronics field. We used to use a substance a type of plastic sheeting called Velostat. Velostat is used to block electromagnetic fields and things of that nature. Fast forward a few years and I found a website that was selling clothing and hats lined with Velostat. I'm not one of the individuals that believes I'm being mind controlled but I did have to give the creators of these clothes and hate props/credit for using Velostat to block EMF, radio wave, etc.
I traded in my timfoil hat collection for a T-shirt that says " I TOLD YOU SO " We've officially changed our focus from conspiracy theories to SPOILER ALERTS. As far as tinfoil hat styles go. I personally recommend the Napoleon it may not keep electric magnetic waves away. But it will definitely keep people away.
@@sonofthenorth18 yeah but it's too much now. Alex Jones is starting to look like a damn profit with all his specifics turning into reality. Not vague speculation.
@@sonofthenorth18 More like _"If you pay attention to history and human nature, it's not that difficult to predict modern iterations of the very same sh!t that's been happening since time immemorial"_ but whatever keeps you a good little taxpayer if that's what you're into :V
I made a pyramid hat that works great. I made it out of printed circuit board material. The pyramid shape reflects my brain waves back into my head, amplifying my thoughts and ideas. In effect, it raises my IQ and my memory functions. I made it in the same proportions as the great pyramid in Egypt.
This was a very interesting watch. I appreciate that it was thorough despite not being a full documentary. After undergoing severe childhood abuse, I was diagnosed with FND - functional neurological disorder. A condition where your body takes stress and mimics any and every illness that it may know. But, the tests? The bloodwork? It will be clean every time. To a degree because of the wide media exposure in today’s world and the lack of independent thinking encouraged - I think more people have mentally induced conditions than they recognize. The brain is powerful. Powerful. Also, I have not watched the video on Multiple Personality Disorder, but I hope you did enough research to know that it is properly called Dissociative Identity Disorder and is the result of extreme trauma to the brain. The DSMV does not even acknowledge the existence of a “multiple personality disorder.” Great video as always. Keep it up!
Studies of people with electro sensitivity show that their symptoms are very real, its just not caused by exposure to electricity or electromagnetic fields, but the belief they are being exposed to them. Of course if you stand near a power line or cell tower you are being exposed and believe you are being exposed but under controlled conditions the two can be separated and its the belief that causes the sickness. The way the human mind can make the body sick is still so poorly understood, I do wonder if these things are somewhat similar to things like mass hysteria which can cause physical symptoms but has a more limited duration.
@@101Mant Yes, that was what I was trying to mention. They are very poorly understood and poorly researched. Most therapists and doctors don’t even know they exist. Which is crazy, because FND almost killed me and almost killed my cousin. The illness it creates is very real. It is a genuine threat to the person who has it; but it is coming from their brain and not their internal organs. Strangely enough, when I was first getting ill from FND, I was given an electro sensitivity blocker and actually found it effective. Again, that probably is the brain seeking any kind of relief. I still go through periods of intense illness and the two labs that have shown where my body is damaged is in the liver (which filters everything) and the entire digestive system where I contracted Candida. Healing from trauma takes a lifetime. And that’s why based on a person’s testimony, abusers should be tried in court. But that is another conversation.
😉The human brain has built-in mechanisms to combat these effects. Most people use them instinctively, but you can learn to actively engage these safety systems to mitigate EM signals, regulate natural internal signals, and such, through mindfulness meditation. The hat is a disruptive crutch. Try it out; seek to learn more about this peace enducing method of self-control. With your condition, I believe it'll be effective. -love
I swear Simon was choking on his own blood the whole episode from biting his tongue so hard. Doing episodes like this with a strait face and not going on a rant must be the everest of his career.
@@HadenBlake No, listen to some of his other channels. Simon's not heartless, but he thinks conspiracy theorists are pretty stupid, as well as any sort of paranormal investigator. Simon's very rational-minded
This is a subject that hit's home for me. Back in 2004 I started hearing voices and spent years trying to understand what it meant. I first thought that it was the government bouncing something off my box spring mattress, then my narrative changed as it was happening away from my bed. Eventually I had decided that I couldn't take it anymore and decided that a hospital might have the equipment to keep the signals from getting to me and who ever was part of the shadow games could get the message that I needed to be protected. In the end it turned out to be mental illness, I had spent 2 years in absolute isolation in my parents basement prior to the event that triggered it. A "friend" came over, first person I had interacted with, and smoked some pot with me. Along the way I even went downtown to the FBI building and told them it had started online and I couldn't say anything else. Over the years as I fought against the schizophrenia building a new life small thing's still lingered, even as recent as a couple years ago I was almost afraid to tell my therapist that I had gone to the FBI because of the computer with a webcam on it. All this while having a life quite normal in comparison to the years previous. For years I dealt with it but once obamacare came around I was able to get a therapist and one on one interaction with a medication doctor and that's when I started to get actual result's. I'm still a broken person but I've defeated so much from my past that I always feel like a new person. Just now getting over drinking too.
My oldest brother is schizo-effective and VERY deluded. It’s heartbreaking to see your loved ones deteriorate mentally. I can’t imagine being the one going thru it. Sadly, trauma (no matter how big/small the event[s]) addiction and MH go hand in hand: trauma triggers MH issues therefore we self medicate. Self medicating makes our MH worse so we self medicate even more. It’s a vicious cycle that’s so hard to break from. Be proud of yourself for not only seeking help, but continuing to do the work to keep your MH in check. Congrats on starting your recovery journey!! There will be bumps in the road, no doubt about it. Just remember the path to recovery is YOURS and YOURS ALONE. Don’t ever let anyone tell you HOW to recover bc everyone’s path is different. What matters is that you get there. Best of luck to you!!
@@rubigee4397 Thank you, I would say there is some hope for your brother but improvement isn't measured in day's week's or even month's but years. I've been fighting this in one way or another for at least two decades now and I would call myself a recovered schizophrenic, granted I have very low levels of symptoms but it's good enough for me to claim victory. The deciding factor with anyone is the willingness to open up to doctors and therapists which is incredibly difficult to do. For many years I would just say "yeah I'm fine" because I didn't want to be like the other people in the group that would rattle off a laundry list of medications they have been on or are on like it's a badge of honor. But that fear of mine kept it going for far to long. Once I was able to get out of the group medication scene with a doctor and therapist was really the point that I started my recovery, but that's been 7-8 years now so it's not a fast process. As to self medicating, thing's were so bad and so deeply set in time that most of the time I had to do something for some kind of change, even if it was a negative change it felt like I could do something about my situation, so I've been drinking for over a decade out of necessity.
So the meds are what helped? How are you today... I'm "normal" I hear them 24/7. I went into sessions open and honest... on my 4th session i told her how bad they were... you can see the change in their face. Getting fd up makes my mind numb but darker
@@queenmidas9762 Today I finally call myself normal, I only have a split second of hearing something a couple of times a day, but the psychosis or general feeling is completely gone and the symptoms are 99.99999% gone. It takes medication and years of work. They've currently got me on the highest level of anti-psychotic you can have outside of a clinical setting and it was needed. Medication is NOT an instant solution, it's just a tool that time and effort can change.
Should be easy to fix: use metallic fabric for your clothes, connect the hat (or helmet) to it and make sure the shoes are made out of conducting rubber material to connect to earth/ground. How about a metallic fabric hoodie plus pants? This way it might even look vaguely stylish.
Back in the late 1980's, I remember seeing a classified ad offering a reward and asking for someone to help him find and prosecute the people who were reading his mind with electronic devices.
I worked at a brake shop with an older guy that was nuts. He would go on rants about the government being able to track everyone, the government listens to everyone, and the government is doing it all the time. This was in the very early 2000s. If he had his typical rant (minus the alien stuff) today most people wouldn't think he was crazy all.
As someone diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder due to delusions in line with the topic of this video, I can confirm that just listening to this video was triggering. It’s a complex issue that would take a lot to unpack, but suffice it for a comment to say that I had to work hard to maintain a ‘normal’ mindset and not slip back into a delusional one. These kinds of problems are hard to explain and even harder to understand. The people experiencing them are treated quite poorly by society in general but also, troublingly, by medical professionals as well. I wouldn’t wish commitment to a mental health establishment on my worst enemy. Good luck everybody. No answers here. Just perspectives and questions.
In The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, there's a group of people who wear metal hats to keep their thoughts private. I remember driving cross country in the United States and it was quite late. I had my radio off and I started hearing things through my speakers. It scared the s#!@ out of me. I later found out that cars (at least older ones) could actually pick up AM radio signals and you could hear it. So I wasn't going crazier than normal, which was a relief.
If you are close enough to any radio source and you have a speaker oftentimes the speaker will just pick up the radio source. In fact you could make a small powerless radio using the stick coil and a speaker. The coil uses the small amount of electricity that the radio signal gives. Seriously look it up on RUclips if you like. Said radio of course won't be the best quality radio but it used to be a fun electronics project to do back in the day when you were a kid.
I experienced a strange phenomenon in my late teens, which probably has a scientific explanation (I hope!) I had a job at a woodworking mill, where every shift, I was exposed to extremely deafening levels of noise from the machinery, saws, planes, lathes, etc. We used every imaginable form of hearing protection available, but many of the old- timers who had worked at the mill for years had experienced hearing loss, and wore hearing aids when not at work. When the plane at my left and the gang saw at my right were operating, even with earplugs, one could literally hear nothing except for the deafening roar. But I began to have auditory hallucinations at these times, I would hear pop music through the roar of the blades, top 40 tunes, like listening to a radio at low volume. This would last for several minutes at times, and I was able to recognize particular songs. The mill had nothing resembling Muzak, or any similar commercial or in-house music system, the noise level would have rendered such a program useless. In fact, just to make any kind of announcement over the mill's PA system, all of the machinery first had to be turned off. My ears wouldn't stop ringing from the time that I left work for the weekend until the time that I returned to work on Mondays. I have never experienced auditory hallucinations before, or after, my time working at that mill. It was very strange. The mill is AMF incorporated, in northern New York state U.S., we made bowling pins for the Japanese market, spools for weaving looms, and cores for wooden baseball bats.
Sounds like auditory pareindolia, it's just you brain trying to make sense of repetitive and random machine sounds. I've that happen to me around machines.
Electrical Engineer here… If you _ground_ the tinfoil cap, it _maybe_ might have _a little_ electrical shielding effect. However, if you leave it “floating,” then, very loosely speaking, it’ll just re-transmit what it receives. But yes, the more likely effect would be to set up resonant _standing waves_ reflecting between the opposing surfaces of the cap. That will at best only _amplify_ twice that wavelength of electromagnetic wave. That’s how microwave ovens work, BTW: The power from their “magnetrons” are moderately-but-not-extremely powerful - about a Kilowatt, but if you put them inside a “tuned cavity,” then that frequency will be amplified like a vibrating guitar string.
I love picking holes in mental conspiracy theories, but I’ve come across something repeatedly that I cannot explain away. I’ll have a song in my head, and when I turn the radio on in my car, that song is on. It’s happened quite frequently. I start work at 4am so I’m not subconsciously hearing it from another radio in my house or from another car (as there is none). It’s usually not a pop song that’s played often (law of averages is if you’re thinking of a top 10 hit and you turn the radio on, it’s going to be on). Can’t explain it with any logic I can think of
This happened to me, *once.* I was awake early in the morning, having been up all night, and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, this song from the '80s (I don't remember which one, but it was by a female artist) started in my head *right from the beginning* and continued, *unbroken,* all of the way into into the second verse until I finally fell asleep - it was so unlike my typical earworm that that could *not* have been what it was! I woke up later that morning, got on the internet to look at the playlists of the local radio stations from the night before (they don't typically post previous playlists on their websites anymore, not since iHeart became a thing), and one of them had, in fact, played that song at right around the time when the song would've entered my head. It is strange, a rare-but-not-unheard-of occurance, and it strikes me that scientific studies to determine how it happens would be next to impossible.
I’m a cop and there’s a lady in my town who thinks she’s a Targeted Individual. She can’t be convinced otherwise. She thinks every passenger plane and even the stars at night are drones surveilling her, among other crazy ass beliefs.
A bar I frequented had coloured lights. I made a foil hat so it would reflect the light. I had to take the hat off because it was to hot. I could see wearing a foil hat to stay warm in cold weather.
Reflecting light wouldn't make foil warm. Absorption of light increases temperature. Hence why black clothes make you warmer in the sun. Foil is a great reflector of heat. It made you hot because it trapped the heat from your head.
Hi, I'm 58, living in the Netherlands and I've been a network engineer from 1996 until 2008. Around 1995 mobile networks, WiFi and other shortwave devices entered society. From 2002 on I installed numerous WiFi routers at companies I worked for. Also at home I installed them. In those years I started to get severe headaches but thought it was because stress, work and having young children. But one day I was in my study and my headache "just" disappeared... I went downstairs to tell my wife about that and she told me she just shutted the main power down, to do some adjustments ... So the WiFi ánd the Siemens Giga-set were shut down too at that moment. When the power was on again, the headache came back too. I also realized our bedroom was just 2 meters from the cupboard in which the WiFi, power etc was located, and we switched the stuff off during the night. Nowadays most WiFi routers have a power adjust, an eco mode etc and just emit at only the power needed at that moment... Just my bit.
Switch over to using ethernet cables instead of wi-fi, and keep the wi-fi off as much as possible. Most cell phones can be connected to the internet using some equipment and ethernet cables. You can get ethernet switches to increase your ethernet capabilities. Ethernet is faster than wi-fi. Ethernet cables rated for the highest speed are the best. Slower ethernet cables can slow down much of the network. An ethernet switch can be connected to another ethernet switch. If you must keep the wi-fi on, place the router as far as practical from where you are most of the time. This may not make much sense to you, but there are some indications that routers that are further away have less of a physiological impact than routers that are closer, even if they have the same field strength. Do you like Nori Sushi Roasted Laver Seaweed? There are suggestions on the Internet that seaweed helps. Has your doctor prescribed verapamil or some other calcium channel blocker? The internet suggests that calcium channel blockers help.
The best part of being a conspiracy theorist is NOT HAVING MYOCARDITIS! The worst part is that all of my conspiracy theories HAVE BEEN PROVEN and now I have to find new ones!
This is pretty accurate. I looked into this myself a couple decades ago. Some studies that have been left out of this video have suggested people exposed to pulsating EMF also experience higher anxiety and hallucinations. I'm not convinced that there are always no effects, or even only negligible effects. Without going on a whole long explanation on them all, the principles are sound, and reportedly, it's the notion of pulsating EMF's effects on the human body and human psyche are what inspired Tesla to develop the radio.
As a aluminum hat is inadequate as a Faraday cage, I have made myself a chainmail coif made of aluminum rings that covers my head and shoulders. A wire runs from the coif down to metal plates attached to the bottom of my shoes. This grounds the coif, which redirects any electromagnetic signals to ground. Note: my coif might offer protection during thunderstorms, but that has yet to be tested.
@@Puddlef1sh- An aluminum chain mail coif as Faraday cage. A wire connects it to metal plates on shoe soles, grounding it. Or so he says. (Aluminum chain mail is real. For people who want the look, but not the weight or expense, of mail armor.)
Whats the diameter of the chain links? You may want to keep it below 5mm, ideally 1mm to prevent the nastier high frequency microwaves from getting through (almost) unhindered. Hint: most commercial grade microwave generators work in the 1 - 10GHz range, that's a wavelength of 3 - 30cm; you want to keep the gaps below 1/10th of the wavelength for ideal filtering - for this range that would be links smaller than 3mm. It protects during thunderstorms if you can guarantee that the material between your skin and the aluminium is safe to several megavolts. If the mail touches your skin anywhere you are practically toast because it will also slightly increase the likelyhood of a lightning strike on yourself. Check the tesla coil fans for what they wear. Personally I would go for the entire medieval suit of armor style, wearing leather clothing underneath (feels more natural and is pretty EM safe). If you go off the hinge, do it with style and for crying out loud don't let THEM know you are onto them - the medieval knight shtick helps greatly with that.
@@KonradTheWizzard I use a ring size of 6 mm, but this does not have a direct correlation with frequency. Ring size would have a correlation with frequency if I was using an open weave such as European 4 in 1, which is the standard for coifs. However, as I use a tight weave that is a hybrid of elven and European 6 in 1, the rings overlap so that no electromagnetic frequency can penetrate my coif from any angle without hitting a ring and being redirected to ground. Of course it is not 100% efficient, mostly due to signal reflection. But it works well enough to block any coherent signal.
As long as the space between your rings are smaller than the waves you're trying to protect against, and the chainmail is grounded.. I do in fact think this is plausible!
The government targets me like that too. Once a year, right around this time (April), actually. They send me messages telling me to give them money. I always just ignore them.
Yup - tin foil hats function as parabolic reflector antennas to focus certain frequencies in the brain. (Electromagnetic Environmental Effects engineer, here. We had a blast with the MIT paper, doing some E3 modeling ourselves... 🤣 )
I'm impressed and happy that Simon found the MIT study page on the subject of tinfoil hats. I'm not sure if the original still exists anymore? But there's a copy of it floating around still. Least there was the last time I went looking for it.
Thank you Simon for the great content. Would you consider doing a segment on people who’s magnetism prevents their watches from keeping accurate time? My wife is one of those, and we’d love to know why a battery lasts about 2 days in any watch she wears, and any sprung watch won’t keep time. But they’re fine if she leaves them on her dresser.
I'm one of those. A mechanical watch loses hours a day. Some streetlights turn on or off as I pass by. I can make static on a radio or tv receiving analog by passing my hand near the aerial antenna. Elevators misbehaving. I think it's my strong aura.
Y’all clearly don’t know Simon if you think he could be respectful of that concept. Especially when the word “aura” comes in. It’s the kind of thing that would have him screaming “IT’S NOT REAL! YOU ALL ARE STUPID! IT’S A LIE!” all of which he HAS actually yelled on at least three other channels.
10 yr watch batteries, dead in 6 months. Laptop battery dead after using for 1yr and yes, was new, never used; all from having contact with skin on regular basis. Right now my cell is shielded by a phone case and screen protector. And have to replace my cell about every 2-3 years. I understand your troubles.
Apparently electromagnetic hypersensitivity can be caused by heavy metal poisoning, so I would recommend that anyone experiencing this phenomenon seek out at least a basic detox
The answer to this is the case of Leonard Kille, co-creator of the Polaroid Land Camera, who ended up having Jose Delgado type stimoceivers implanted in his brain, became the basis of "The Terminal Man", and was eventually shuffled from the east coast to the west coast VA where they didn't bother to notate his surgery in his file. After he finally convinced a doctor to X-Ray his head where they found the stimoceiver, the doctor gave him a a big piece of tinfoil from the hospital kitchen to fashion a helmet to help him stop hearing radio signals, since (like a person with an old style mercury filling who has recently had an electric shock) he was picking up radio waves.
I had a couple of mercury amalgam fillings back in the sixties. There were three AM radio stations sited in and around our neighborhood. All through elementary school and junior high, the fillings would pick up either Top Forty, Mexican music, or CountryPolitan. So my teachers and classmates would get a shock every time Tammy Wynette would be whining in my head and I'd shout "NO, NO! BEACH BOYS, JAN AND DEAN, BEATLES, ANYTHING BUT THAT!"
The reason why it doesn't work is because it's suppose to be a tinfoil hat. Tinfoil hasn't been made for decades. It was replaced with aluminum foil. There is a RUclips video of a man trying to see if the legend was true that one could catch catfish with pieces of bar soap. The problem is old soap used animal fat and new soap uses vegetable oil. Slight changes can change the results.
I've had a cranial reconstruction surgery, some braces and wires, for 20 years I can start singing a song, then turn on the radio and hear the song playing. Radio waves do exist, and I'm sure they can be weaponized.
Keeps always gives me a laugh. "Did you know 2/3 men will experience some form of male-pattern baldness by the time they're 35?" Me when I was 19: "You don't say?"
@ 10:46 I've heard this before "Just because you're paranoid does not mean everybody's not out to get you!" On the other hand, that doesn't men they are either. I had a room mate when I was in the Air Force that I loved fighting with. This wasn't in the nature of a difference of opinion. It was a physical contest. No I wasn't in any danger from it, and when he was reassigned to another place, he said I was the best room mate he ever had. To this day, that is the best compliment I ever had. No we were not out to damage each other per say, we were out to keep it up until one of us said the safe word, "Enough." Neither of us wanted to wear short sleaves during this or people would have got the wrong idea. I mean, we were fighting but personal injury was not the goal. We weren't even fighting to resolve a difference of opinion. We were doing it just because we enjoyed it. Just so you know, if anything came up, I had his back, and he had mine. I was very disheartened for him though when he got assigned to Hawaii rather than to Hayford England where is relatives were.
Nothing makes a person more paranoid than when everybody is out to get him. Phrased differently, nothing makes a person more paranoid than when he thinks that everybody is out to get him.
That's like the time I told my buddy my rabbit's foot keeps elephants away, he said there were no elephants around for a thousand miles and I told him it's because it works really good.

Simon, Given the earth itself is shielded by the electromagnetic field generated by its core, that the human heart is in some respects an electromagnetic generator, and that individual cells seem to communicate in part using EM wavelengths, it would be an interesting follow up to this episode if you Found Out and shared more about that :)
@@mutantpoptart8060 No weed needed. All the facts in this post are really close to the truth. The implication that there is a connection to tin foil hats is a bit off... Earth's liquid core does create a rather strong magnetic field that happens to divert charged solar particles away from the planet. When it fails to divert really high-energy particles you get northern lights. That's pretty much all the field does, apart from indicating some slowly moving point in northern Canada as the "magnetic north pole" and another frozen piece of land as magnetic south. The heart does generate some electricity while it moves. You can measure it in the millivolts with either a specialized ECG or even a normal Oscilloscope. It's not much, but enough to allow diagnoses that have saved a lot of lifes. Hmm. Most cells don't communicate significantly with EM. It's usually chemicals. In the case of nerves those chemicals happen to be ionized, which means you can disrupt nerve signals with electric shocks. Of if you use more advanced tech you can couple some implants directly with nerves (e.g. cochlea implants for hearing). There are plenty of YT videos explaining all of those if you don't like reading it on more scientific sources...
The human mind dose work on low electron impulses. It wouldn't be impossible to turn it into a receiver. But pairing the right frequency would be a challenge.
To be a receiver the incoming singal EM wave would need to interact with the human brain in such a way as to induce meaningful signals in exclusively the right areas. It's not just a matter of frequency, if some hypothetical signal could induce your neurons to fire it would give you a massive epileptic fit.
Yeah we dont have the hardware to tune amplitude so any mistake would mean the party transmitting flat out misses the transmission window, sends a whispers, or transmits screaming. And if you change your distance from the transmitter during the day changes would have to be made. You gotta wonder how many people would have to be involved in making that work for... architects and writers. Not exactly high-risk dissidents so i dont see the pay off for anybody to even try it long enough to get it working. Also, sending info without getting any back? At this high of a cost? Sounds like a waste to me, just structurally. Thats not the point of espionage, to go out and give things away for nothing in return. Cause a little mayhem? That probably makes the list sometimes but i cant imagine doing it one person at a time is worth the trouble of trying to make it work. Whole thing is weird and backwards
Each nerve cell in the brain has a number of tentacles connecting it to other tentacles on other nerve cells. Electricity is transmitted within the cell, but to communicate between one cell an another, chemical reactions are used. Each connection is different and each brain is wired differently. Not just the frequency is needed to communicate, but the exact neurons to fire and the exact connection to fire, and that is difficult. It is even more difficult to do it at a distance. To communicate that way, you would need to trigger not just one connection, but many of them and trigger them precisely and in the right sequence. If I remember correctly, some promising research has been conducted to connect a specific brain to some specific equipment, but it does not follow what I have described here. In a nutshell, it would not be possible to transmit detailed enough information to a brain by use of a transmitter at a specific frequency.
My dad had an old Microwave (70's-80's) with a crack in it. If I was within 20ft of it while on I could 'feel/hear' it in my head, and it would get more intense (louder) the closer I would get.. fun times
I believe the lucy's fillings story because when I was younger there was a certain staircase in our apartment complex where if you sat at the top with a little 9v battery and a paperclip or staple we could hear this mexican radio station with some weird background interference (kind of like a theremin but not as wide ranged) when you touched the paperclip to the battery. we did this multiple times, some days it didn't seem to work but if we went down a few steps usually it would start working again. I still to this day do not fully understand how their was audible sound; even if that acted as an antennae there was no speaker for the sound to come from, just a paperclip.
Random thoughts....I was told by my father who had advanced degrees in electrical and chemical engineering...he said that unless the tinfoil hat wearer had pinholes in the foil after the attack, not to worry about it....E.H.S...My I.T. instructor who was our collage's I.T. hardware repair guy, could tell where I'd been on campus, when he discovered during class I was one of "those people" who could screw with hard drives....apparently some people are capable of carrying a static charge, and if one is obese, this charge is enhanced. My instructor made me wear a grounding strap through the rest of my college term. I never had issues with buggy collage computers thereafter...As a young kid, my dad would watch me get zapped by display cases when we'd go to stores with florescent lighting in the cases. He'd watch arcs come off the metal frames....I can see where people would think they're allergic to electrical fields. I think we can all feel electrical charges, but most of us just ignore it like it's the weather....If one is truly sensitive, I would think they wouldn't come out until after sunset, when the planet is between them and the sun...I guess I'm like Newton Pulsifer when it comes to computers and lead based batteries....
Yikes! Lol. My eldest child ate pennies… we think? We found a suspicious amount of very clean looking coins in his diaper… I don’t have any other explanation of how they got there, although it is technically possible he found a handful of very shiny coins and placed them there rather than cleaning them with his stomach acid?
If you'd be kind enough to swallow a GPS tracker that's activated, then see if you're traceable, the rest of us lunatics would appreciate your scientific endeavors. Though admittedly, I'm not replicating any of them. I'm purely curious.
Is there some kind of headwear that will prevent Simon from making a dozen new RUclips channels? Blame it on the Wi-Fi or government if you wish but I think he's got a genuine compulsion problem.
RUclips punishes creators for making too many videos a day. So the way around it is to just make more channels if you want to make more than the "allowed" maximum. The "punishment" is your videos simply don't get recommended. Which as you may imagine cuts down on views.

I've actually experienced a nocebo effect back when I was in 3rd grade in summer camp. These kids convinced me to believe this tiny hole broken in the middle of a concrete slab was cursed if I touched it and being that I was really gullible at the time, was convinced, touched it anyway, and then I felt a shockwave go up my arm as if I grabbed an electric fence. When some other kid came by and provided the logic that it's literally just concrete and dirt, it snapped me out of the paranoia the other kids gave me. I touched the hole in the concrete again and there was nothing. But I vividly remember being shocked through my arm the first time.
It's possible that you was shocked. If their was a ground fault in a nearby underground electric cable then individuals could be shocked under the right circumstances
@@crovax1375 I mean maybe but nobody else got shocked and I didn't either after the fact when I tried again. It seemed like solid concrete but there could've been some micro cracks in the hole where some of the dirt inside could've had some conductive material? Idk that was more than 3/4ths of my life ago haha
@@Mephitinae as far as I could tell, it was just concrete and broken up rocks and dirt. I mean it's possible I guess if tiny metal flakes were mixed it but none of it was visible
If you've ever had an x-ray, you should be familiar with the lead blanket they lay over parts you don't want radiated. It's all about shielding what you don't want radiated. The brain would be my first choice.
@@captainheat2314 It's the reason they had to get rid of lead in house paint. It interferes with stingray, and other ways they see through the walls of your house.
The teeth picking up radio is a thing. When I was a teenager, I was in my dads apartment and it happened to me. When I moved into a specific spot in the apartment, my braces started vibrating and I could faintly make out the call sign of an AM news radio station he listened to a lot.
What you experienced is more common than most people think. Some of the metal in the braces acted like an antenna, and something similar to a small grain of sand trapped somewhere acted like a rectifier, so your mouth acted like a crystal radio. I heard an anecdotal rumor that someone heard a radio station in the bathtub, and as the bathtub was filled with water, it tuned to a different station. Your experience, while unusual, is not unique.
I mean with declassified documents like on operations like operation Northwood / midnight climax and more famously MKultra can we totally rule out people claiming to have been experimented on with mind control sci-fi horseshit?
If someone is (ex)military, and they said they were experimented on, I'd be willing to listen. If a civilian with a normal life suddenly starts hearing government voices in their heads, I'd tell them to seek mental help. Because let's be practical: the government isn't going to experiment this kind of thing on civilians, there are just too many variables. If you wanted to run experiments like this on humans, you'd do it on humans you can control variables for, like military/prisoners/volunteers/etc. Groups who you can dictate their lives to: when they sleep, what they eat, constant measuring of vital signs, etc.
I mean, obviously those hats are just can-tennas. You use the same foil to make a home-made wifi antenna and stick it in a tube with some wires coming out. Your skull is the tube, a big cavity, and your brain is the wiring. These people hate 5g bouncing all over the place but you know... they kinda pioneered it by being the first human signal boosters and reflectors.
Several years ago when I worked for Home Depot a man came in to find out how much it would cost to buy enough copper wire to completely wrap his house. He claimed the government was spying on him. He left rather disappointed when he saw the cost of copper wire. Maybe he should just wrap his house in foil.
many do. Well, until their tv and internet is disrupted. Then the "many" turns into "a few" do. Al foil is a good heat reflector on colder climates if you line your inner walls with it. On what layer though is debatable; before the insulation?, on the inside of the exterior sheeting?, Perhaps glued to the inner side of the sheetrock? you get the idea.
In order for a “tin hat” to be truly efficacious, like any Faraday cage or an analog thereof, it needs to be grounded. A connection to ground allows the energy intercepted by a Faraday Cage to be dissipated away from the protected item. In the case of the “tinfoil hat”, the energy that could be intercepted by the hat ends up only attenuated as there’s no really effective means to dissipate or shunt the energy away; as was pointed out, the effect of the hat as constituted, is frequency-dependent.
A grounded hat is ideal, but some protection from radiation can also be obtained from an ungrounded hat, provided the foil does not act to increase the radiation reaching the brain, provided that it does not act like an enhanced antenna.
The other week I didn't sleep for 7 days due to the storm outside. I started hearing weird noise, high pitched beeps, voices and music that wasn't there, it's crazy how your mind can play tricks on you. Maybe I just needed a tin foil hat:).
I have a tin foil hat hanging in my office. sometimes when a salesperson comes in i will say, hold on a sec before they start talking, then I put my hat on then say ok, ready! lol it's usually worth a good laugh or a memorable awkward moment.
I personally am inclined to believe the electromagnetic sensitivity like in better call Saul. Anyone who is a radio enthusiast (myself included) will know that there are often FCC warning labels warning not to be too close to an antenna that is transmitting, as well as some very high frequency transmitters having radiation warnings on them. Also interestingly enough, it’s been found that police officers are at a higher risk of testicular and ovarian cancers due to the high powered radios on their belt near their pelvis. I have also had an experience of my own. Near my Walgreens pharmacy drive through, there is a small black box that says “low frequency” just before the drive through window used to detect cars and give the employees a heads up. I have noticed that when I am parked next to it and it is roughly head height, while I don’t experience pain or nausea, I do get very irritated and over all very uncomfortable. But as soon as I pull away from the box as far as a few feet, the feeling instantly goes away. So do I think the electrio magnetic sensitive people really are being affected in a painful way and really are being affected by electricity, or it’s all in their head? I DONT KNOW. But what I do know is that some frequencies and affect the human body to some degree
Microwave, Radar, Radio - know what they have in common? Radio enthusiasts do. You know who knows better than to claim that a police officer's hand held is "high powered"? Radio enthusiasts do. Signed: Pushing 750 Watts through a Moonraker IV
If the radio is left on the belt while it is transmitting, then there would be strong radiation near that area. Sometimes the radio could be left on the belt but the microphone and speaker could be elsewhere. If the radio is removed from the belt while transmitting, then the high radiation would appear closer to where the radio is located.
@@verlankliewer2124 Calling 5 watts "strong radiation" or "high radiation" is a bit of a stretch. I going assume your knowledge of radios and radiation comes from facebook, the alternative would be impolite.
@@muninrob My knowledge of radios and radiation comes from my background in radio and TV engineering. In the late 60's and early 70's, I worked in radio and television engineering. I have a first class radiotelephone license with a ship radar endorsement. I have not worked in the field for a long time, and the license might be called something different now. You are right, that the radiation from the radios of five watts is not regarded as strong radiation or high radiation, but integral to this conversation is the thought that this radiation, while weak by radio standards, might cause physical harm. If you double the distance between the transmitter and receiver, the field is 1/4th as strong. The strongest radio transmitters in the U.S. are 50,000 watts, much higher than the 5w police radios. I was told years ago that in Mexico, the strongest radios are 100,000 watts. I have worked as a transmitter engineer at one radio station that ran 5,000 watts in the day time and 1,000 watts at night, and I went to each of the six towers every day to take some readings. I have worked at 50,000 watt stations. I never experienced any symptoms from my exposure to electromagnetic radiation while working in that field. TV transmitters were different. The frequencies were higher, but there was little radiation in the transmitter areas. Police radios are different. They operate at higher frequencies but lower power than AM transmitters. I understand what you are saying and your thoughts and comments are competent and reasonable and even professional, although your assumptions about me are incorrect. There is virtually no radiation from the police radio while he is receiving audio from the dispatcher. There is radiation when he talks on the radio. If he removes the radio and brings it to his mouth when he talks, then I estimate the field strength to the area would be 1/16th the strength to the affected area than if he left the radio on his belt and talked through a different microphone. Decades ago, I also had a General Class Amateur Radio license.

I always thought the silliness started with the 2002 movie "Signs" where the children and their uncle wear caps made from aluminum foil to protect themselves from lizard-like spacemen.
It was definitely around before then. Note that the movie never showed that it had any actual effect. It was just reflecting on the already existing conspiracy theory, not the cause of it.
Tin foil used to make sense for this reason. But nowadays tinfoil is in rare Supply, meaning you have to go to a hardware store such as Lowe's or Home Depot to get it. The stuff you buy in the store is aluminum foil. And not offers you no protection from the signals or radiation. The fact that people are still calling aluminum foil tin foil is a little concerning to me. I had to buy tinfoil, from Home Depot a few months ago. And just out of curiosity, I actually made a proper hat out of it. Doesn't work, I have no idea. But it makes an interesting display piece in my bedroom. And no, it isn't just the standard Wrap aluminum cone on top of your head. It's more like a motorcycle or paintball mask.
I tested that supposed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields and radio signals at my college once. I was told I had to leave a little art gallery or turn off my phone because the signals and electromagnetic fields from the phone disturbs people. So I left, pretended to shut my phone off, and came back and they said thank you that was much better even though my phone was actually still on. This shows that it was nothing but a placebo effect or completely made up.
Very little radiation comes from a phone that is on, but is not actively being used. The phone must communicate with the cell tower to let the tower know where it is and how to initiate further communication with the phone. When the phone does communicate, it is at regular strength, but the communication is brief when the phone is not active.
@@verlankliewer2124 I know how phones work, it just shows that the crap they come up with is all fake. When how it makes you feel changes based on nothing but what you believe is going on, you know there is no actual effect from it. They just hear the would radiation and immediately think it has to be harmful while totally ignoring what kind of radiation it is. Visible light is a much stronger tyoe of radiation than the radio waves a phone uses, but they completely ignore that and instead act as if phones are hurting them with their scary "RaDAtIoN."

Being called a tinfoil hat wearer is more often than not a compliment nowadays it means you have a mind of your own and don't blindly believe what you're told to believe.
The problem with that is that people who do their own research aren't taking into consideration the biases in the media and themselves. Those biases will affect your beliefs and the sources you believe are worthwhile
that's prob cause u have some type of metal in ur blood. prob from eating too much fish or getting too many needles popped in ur arm. or maybe using metal to cook/store ur foods and the little shavings break off into the food.

I was working on a street repair crew, filling potholes in a residential neighborhood when my coworkers moved quickly away from the area we were filling. I turned around and saw an elderly woman with a floral hat on her head. Just like she was going to church or a Sunday tea. I thought my coworkers were rude and odd for moving away so quickly. I decided to say hello to the woman and be pleasant. What a mistake! This woman started screaming and crying at me saying the government was transmitting radio messages into her head and I was there to kidnap her for the government. As she kept yelling at me she took off her hat to reveal a aluminum foil hat. She told me the metal wasn’t working anymore. And I was there to finally pick her up and deliver her to the CIA. I backed up and moved away from the woman and then ripped my coworkers new posteriors for leaving me there. They knew all about her and thought it was a great prank.
She's probably aware she's got a problem that seriously interferes with having the normal life she wants to live, And thinks she has found out the cause and solution. It's unlikely, but, if a better (in her mind) solution comes around she might find a way to the new one - provided it's not a physical thing like brain injury or some sort of chemical imbalance. Poor soul.
That is a great prank
Bullshit

I did canvassing work for Greenpeace in downtown Denver for a minute. There are a LOT of street people like that lady; I had a little old lady tell me that God was mad that we put our pipes and plumbing in Antarctica because it's clearly off-limits to human activity by divine decree, and that we should be awaiting His holy wrath. It's sad there's no real safety net for these people; the tent cities out here have tripled, at least, since the pandemic began. With relatively mentally healthy poor people being ignored wholesale now the situation seems even more hopeless for those that literally cannot help themselves.

I get auditory hallucinations. When I lived in an apartment, I just figured it was my neighbor playing music slightly too loud. After moving to a house, I realized it was all in my head, so I now counter it by sleeping with my own music running. I've spoken with my therapist about the whole thing, and he agrees that it is fairly common, nothing to worry about unless getting 'distressing messages'.
I'm glad you found a way to deal with them
And beware if the voices tell you to hurt people or yourself. That's not you, and it's a symptom that you need to discuss with your doctor
@@ginnyjollykidd It's always just music at a really low volume. If it's ever voices, that's gonna freak me out, and I'll be calling the hotline.

Way back in the day we used to wrap tin foil around TV antennas to get better reception. So wouldn’t a tin foil had INCREASE the power of those evil mind control rays?
I was looking for this comment cos as a child my parents did the same thing lol
Tech Ingredients did a good video called Defeating Microwave We*pons which showcases how a Farraday cage is effective against against microwave radiation. Aluminum foil can transfer radio waves but will prevent or impede them from penetrating.
Exactly foil is a conductor
In this video, Simon actually describes an experiment that shows that for certain frequencies, especially those used by the cell phone networks, yes, they do.
If you wrapped foil around the antenna wires you would reduce static and interference. Maybe those Aldebaran mind-control rays are deflected the same way.
If you're hearing voices, step one would be to check the batteries in your carbon monoxide detector. If you're still hearing voices, a psychiatrist is your next step. I'm bipolar & had a psychotic breakdown a few years ago. Heard voices, saw things that weren't there, thought Adele was sending secret messages through her songs (I'm into metal & hiphop, so this was particularly weird) thought the CIA was after me (in my flat, in England, lol), the works. Persecution delusions in particular - ie, people being after you, are the most common in disorders like bipolar, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, etc
All of these people who claim to be getting “secret transmissions” and the like are obviously dealing with some undiagnosed mental illness. It’s pretty obvious when we have overwhelming evidence that hearing voices is a sign of mental illness, whereas there’s no evidence to support secret radio signals or whatever.
I sincerely hope these people are able to get some professional help bc they need it. Glad to hear that you overcame your own issues too, mental health is nothing to stigmatize or ignore.

10-20 years ago and even now people mock fibromyalgia sufferers. They said people were exaggerating or plainly faking symptoms of the disease. As someone who suffers from these and lupus..it took over 10 years for doctors to give me the right diagnosis. I was an active soccer and softball player during my early teens until around 16. I developed severe pain in my legs.. so bad all I could do was ball up and cry myself to sleep. Doctors ran test after test and guessed it was some kind of arthritis or mixed tissue disease. None of the treatments or medications worked. I saw several doctors who accused me of faking and drug seeking. I looked up fibromyalgia and a lot of my symptoms matched but all my doctors blew it off.
It wasnt until I was 27 that the diagnosis of lupus was made. 2 years following that I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I still struggle with pain and weakness every day and it affects my life in a lot of ways.
I don't know if they electromagnetic sensitivity is real or not but I know how it feels for doctors to mock your pain. Even making jokes about you to the other staff in the clinic. Its disheartening and at times I didn't want to live anymore. Luckily a doctor took me seriously 7 years ago and it changed my world. My heart goes out to all that suffer from illness.. you are strong but you dont have to stay strong all the time. Its okay to break down and feel bad. Dont let people in your life make you feel like you cant be vulnerable in front of them. If it makes them uncomfortable than they weren't good friends in the first place. You are only human and you need people around you thats supportive.... that accept you as you are. 💕💕💕

This was a very interesting watch. I appreciate that it was thorough despite not being a full documentary. After undergoing severe childhood abuse, I was diagnosed with FND - functional neurological disorder. A condition where your body takes stress and mimics any and every illness that it may know.
But, the tests? The bloodwork? It will be clean every time.
To a degree because of the wide media exposure in today’s world and the lack of independent thinking encouraged - I think more people have mentally induced conditions than they recognize.
The brain is powerful. Powerful.
Also, I have not watched the video on Multiple Personality Disorder, but I hope you did enough research to know that it is properly called Dissociative Identity Disorder and is the result of extreme trauma to the brain. The DSMV does not even acknowledge the existence of a “multiple personality disorder.”
Great video as always. Keep it up!
Studies of people with electro sensitivity show that their symptoms are very real, its just not caused by exposure to electricity or electromagnetic fields, but the belief they are being exposed to them. Of course if you stand near a power line or cell tower you are being exposed and believe you are being exposed but under controlled conditions the two can be separated and its the belief that causes the sickness.
The way the human mind can make the body sick is still so poorly understood, I do wonder if these things are somewhat similar to things like mass hysteria which can cause physical symptoms but has a more limited duration.
@@101Mant Yes, that was what I was trying to mention. They are very poorly understood and poorly researched. Most therapists and doctors don’t even know they exist.
Which is crazy, because FND almost killed me and almost killed my cousin.
The illness it creates is very real. It is a genuine threat to the person who has it; but it is coming from their brain and not their internal organs.
Strangely enough, when I was first getting ill from FND, I was given an electro sensitivity blocker and actually found it effective.
Again, that probably is the brain seeking any kind of relief.
I still go through periods of intense illness and the two labs that have shown where my body is damaged is in the liver (which filters everything) and the entire digestive system where I contracted Candida.
Healing from trauma takes a lifetime.
And that’s why based on a person’s testimony, abusers should be tried in court.
But that is another conversation.
😉The human brain has built-in mechanisms to combat these effects. Most people use them instinctively, but you can learn to actively engage these safety systems to mitigate EM signals, regulate natural internal signals, and such, through mindfulness meditation. The hat is a disruptive crutch.
Try it out; seek to learn more about this peace enducing method of self-control. With your condition, I believe it'll be effective.

I swear Simon was choking on his own blood the whole episode from biting his tongue so hard. Doing episodes like this with a strait face and not going on a rant must be the everest of his career.
He don't listen to his own voice.
Atta girl
I want a Blaze episode that just a super cut of him losing it during videos like this.
@@HadenBlake No, listen to some of his other channels. Simon's not heartless, but he thinks conspiracy theorists are pretty stupid, as well as any sort of paranormal investigator. Simon's very rational-minded
The facade did crack a bit near the beginning though. Did well to get himself under control.
This is a subject that hit's home for me. Back in 2004 I started hearing voices and spent years trying to understand what it meant. I first thought that it was the government bouncing something off my box spring mattress, then my narrative changed as it was happening away from my bed. Eventually I had decided that I couldn't take it anymore and decided that a hospital might have the equipment to keep the signals from getting to me and who ever was part of the shadow games could get the message that I needed to be protected. In the end it turned out to be mental illness, I had spent 2 years in absolute isolation in my parents basement prior to the event that triggered it. A "friend" came over, first person I had interacted with, and smoked some pot with me. Along the way I even went downtown to the FBI building and told them it had started online and I couldn't say anything else. Over the years as I fought against the schizophrenia building a new life small thing's still lingered, even as recent as a couple years ago I was almost afraid to tell my therapist that I had gone to the FBI because of the computer with a webcam on it. All this while having a life quite normal in comparison to the years previous. For years I dealt with it but once obamacare came around I was able to get a therapist and one on one interaction with a medication doctor and that's when I started to get actual result's. I'm still a broken person but I've defeated so much from my past that I always feel like a new person. Just now getting over drinking too.
My oldest brother is schizo-effective and VERY deluded. It’s heartbreaking to see your loved ones deteriorate mentally. I can’t imagine being the one going thru it. Sadly, trauma (no matter how big/small the event[s]) addiction and MH go hand in hand: trauma triggers MH issues therefore we self medicate. Self medicating makes our MH worse so we self medicate even more. It’s a vicious cycle that’s so hard to break from. Be proud of yourself for not only seeking help, but continuing to do the work to keep your MH in check.
Congrats on starting your recovery journey!! There will be bumps in the road, no doubt about it. Just remember the path to recovery is YOURS and YOURS ALONE. Don’t ever let anyone tell you HOW to recover bc everyone’s path is different. What matters is that you get there.
Best of luck to you!!
@@rubigee4397 Thank you, I would say there is some hope for your brother but improvement isn't measured in day's week's or even month's but years. I've been fighting this in one way or another for at least two decades now and I would call myself a recovered schizophrenic, granted I have very low levels of symptoms but it's good enough for me to claim victory. The deciding factor with anyone is the willingness to open up to doctors and therapists which is incredibly difficult to do. For many years I would just say "yeah I'm fine" because I didn't want to be like the other people in the group that would rattle off a laundry list of medications they have been on or are on like it's a badge of honor. But that fear of mine kept it going for far to long. Once I was able to get out of the group medication scene with a doctor and therapist was really the point that I started my recovery, but that's been 7-8 years now so it's not a fast process. As to self medicating, thing's were so bad and so deeply set in time that most of the time I had to do something for some kind of change, even if it was a negative change it felt like I could do something about my situation, so I've been drinking for over a decade out of necessity.
So the meds are what helped? How are you today... I'm "normal" I hear them 24/7. I went into sessions open and honest... on my 4th session i told her how bad they were... you can see the change in their face.
Getting fd up makes my mind numb but darker
@@queenmidas9762 Today I finally call myself normal, I only have a split second of hearing something a couple of times a day, but the psychosis or general feeling is completely gone and the symptoms are 99.99999% gone. It takes medication and years of work. They've currently got me on the highest level of anti-psychotic you can have outside of a clinical setting and it was needed. Medication is NOT an instant solution, it's just a tool that time and effort can change.

The biggest issue with this stuff working is the lack of a ground. So well played you created a place for the EMI to collect
Tell THAT to your next crazy.
Exactly.
Should be easy to fix: use metallic fabric for your clothes, connect the hat (or helmet) to it and make sure the shoes are made out of conducting rubber material to connect to earth/ground. How about a metallic fabric hoodie plus pants? This way it might even look vaguely stylish.
I would have laughed so hard if Simon had pulled out a tinfoil hat from underneath his desk at the end of the video, after his last lines
Back in the late 1980's, I remember seeing a classified ad offering a reward and asking for someone to help him find and prosecute the people who were reading his mind with electronic devices.
I worked at a brake shop with an older guy that was nuts. He would go on rants about the government being able to track everyone, the government listens to everyone, and the government is doing it all the time. This was in the very early 2000s. If he had his typical rant (minus the alien stuff) today most people wouldn't think he was crazy all.
Tin foil hat?? That's just silly! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to consult my lucky tarot astrology mood watch.
As someone diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder due to delusions in line with the topic of this video, I can confirm that just listening to this video was triggering. It’s a complex issue that would take a lot to unpack, but suffice it for a comment to say that I had to work hard to maintain a ‘normal’ mindset and not slip back into a delusional one.
These kinds of problems are hard to explain and even harder to understand. The people experiencing them are treated quite poorly by society in general but also, troublingly, by medical professionals as well. I wouldn’t wish commitment to a mental health establishment on my worst enemy.
Good luck everybody. No answers here. Just perspectives and questions.
What were the questions
In The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, there's a group of people who wear metal hats to keep their thoughts private.
I remember driving cross country in the United States and it was quite late. I had my radio off and I started hearing things through my speakers. It scared the s#!@ out of me. I later found out that cars (at least older ones) could actually pick up AM radio signals and you could hear it. So I wasn't going crazier than normal, which was a relief.
same thing happened with my computer tower, radio started coming out of my speakers when I turned off the comp, but not the speakers
If you are close enough to any radio source and you have a speaker oftentimes the speaker will just pick up the radio source. In fact you could make a small powerless radio using the stick coil and a speaker. The coil uses the small amount of electricity that the radio signal gives. Seriously look it up on RUclips if you like. Said radio of course won't be the best quality radio but it used to be a fun electronics project to do back in the day when you were a kid.
I experienced a strange phenomenon in my late teens, which probably has a scientific explanation (I hope!) I had a job at a woodworking mill, where every shift, I was exposed to extremely deafening levels of noise from the machinery, saws, planes, lathes, etc. We used every imaginable form of hearing protection available, but many of the old- timers who had worked at the mill for years had experienced hearing loss, and wore hearing aids when not at work. When the plane at my left and the gang saw at my right were operating, even with earplugs, one could literally hear nothing except for the deafening roar. But I began to have auditory hallucinations at these times, I would hear pop music through the roar of the blades, top 40 tunes, like listening to a radio at low volume. This would last for several minutes at times, and I was able to recognize particular songs. The mill had nothing resembling Muzak, or any similar commercial or in-house music system, the noise level would have rendered such a program useless. In fact, just to make any kind of announcement over the mill's PA system, all of the machinery first had to be turned off. My ears wouldn't stop ringing from the time that I left work for the weekend until the time that I returned to work on Mondays. I have never experienced auditory hallucinations before, or after, my time working at that mill. It was very strange. The mill is AMF incorporated, in northern New York state U.S., we made bowling pins for the Japanese market, spools for weaving looms, and cores for wooden baseball bats.
Sounds like auditory pareindolia, it's just you brain trying to make sense of repetitive and random machine sounds. I've that happen to me around machines.
I used to wear a tinfoil hat. But I gave it up after my quadrant's reptilian supervisor started talking about baked brain potatoes.
Same
Electrical Engineer here… If you _ground_ the tinfoil cap, it _maybe_ might have _a little_ electrical shielding effect. However, if you leave it “floating,” then, very loosely speaking, it’ll just re-transmit what it receives.
But yes, the more likely effect would be to set up resonant _standing waves_ reflecting between the opposing surfaces of the cap. That will at best only _amplify_ twice that wavelength of electromagnetic wave.
That’s how microwave ovens work, BTW: The power from their “magnetrons” are moderately-but-not-extremely powerful - about a Kilowatt, but if you put them inside a “tuned cavity,” then that frequency will be amplified like a vibrating guitar string.
I love picking holes in mental conspiracy theories, but I’ve come across something repeatedly that I cannot explain away. I’ll have a song in my head, and when I turn the radio on in my car, that song is on. It’s happened quite frequently. I start work at 4am so I’m not subconsciously hearing it from another radio in my house or from another car (as there is none). It’s usually not a pop song that’s played often (law of averages is if you’re thinking of a top 10 hit and you turn the radio on, it’s going to be on). Can’t explain it with any logic I can think of

Ai technology is now converting brain waves into images
This happened to me, *once.* I was awake early in the morning, having been up all night, and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, this song from the '80s (I don't remember which one, but it was by a female artist) started in my head *right from the beginning* and continued, *unbroken,* all of the way into into the second verse until I finally fell asleep - it was so unlike my typical earworm that that could *not* have been what it was! I woke up later that morning, got on the internet to look at the playlists of the local radio stations from the night before (they don't typically post previous playlists on their websites anymore, not since iHeart became a thing), and one of them had, in fact, played that song at right around the time when the song would've entered my head. It is strange, a rare-but-not-unheard-of occurance, and it strikes me that scientific studies to determine how it happens would be next to impossible.
I’m a cop and there’s a lady in my town who thinks she’s a Targeted Individual. She can’t be convinced otherwise. She thinks every passenger plane and even the stars at night are drones surveilling her, among other crazy ass beliefs.
A bar I frequented had coloured lights. I made a foil hat so it would reflect the light. I had to take the hat off because it was to hot. I could see wearing a foil hat to stay warm in cold weather.
Reflecting light wouldn't make foil warm. Absorption of light increases temperature. Hence why black clothes make you warmer in the sun. Foil is a great reflector of heat. It made you hot because it trapped the heat from your head.
Hi, I'm 58, living in the Netherlands and I've been a network engineer from 1996 until 2008. Around 1995 mobile networks, WiFi and other shortwave devices entered society.
From 2002 on I installed numerous WiFi routers at companies I worked for. Also at home I installed them.
In those years I started to get severe headaches but thought it was because stress, work and having young children.
But one day I was in my study and my headache "just" disappeared... I went downstairs to tell my wife about that and she told me she just shutted the main power down, to do some adjustments ...
So the WiFi ánd the Siemens Giga-set were shut down too at that moment.
When the power was on again, the headache came back too.
I also realized our bedroom was just 2 meters from the cupboard in which the WiFi, power etc was located, and we switched the stuff off during the night.
Nowadays most WiFi routers have a power adjust, an eco mode etc and just emit at only the power needed at that moment...
Just my bit.
Switch over to using ethernet cables instead of wi-fi, and keep the wi-fi off as much as possible. Most cell phones can be connected to the internet using some equipment and ethernet cables. You can get ethernet switches to increase your ethernet capabilities. Ethernet is faster than wi-fi. Ethernet cables rated for the highest speed are the best. Slower ethernet cables can slow down much of the network. An ethernet switch can be connected to another ethernet switch. If you must keep the wi-fi on, place the router as far as practical from where you are most of the time. This may not make much sense to you, but there are some indications that routers that are further away have less of a physiological impact than routers that are closer, even if they have the same field strength. Do you like Nori Sushi Roasted Laver Seaweed? There are suggestions on the Internet that seaweed helps. Has your doctor prescribed verapamil or some other calcium channel blocker? The internet suggests that calcium channel blockers help.
The best part of being a conspiracy theorist is NOT HAVING MYOCARDITIS!

This is pretty accurate. I looked into this myself a couple decades ago. Some studies that have been left out of this video have suggested people exposed to pulsating EMF also experience higher anxiety and hallucinations. I'm not convinced that there are always no effects, or even only negligible effects. Without going on a whole long explanation on them all, the principles are sound, and reportedly, it's the notion of pulsating EMF's effects on the human body and human psyche are what inspired Tesla to develop the radio.
As a aluminum hat is inadequate as a Faraday cage, I have made myself a chainmail coif made of aluminum rings that covers my head and shoulders. A wire runs from the coif down to metal plates attached to the bottom of my shoes. This grounds the coif, which redirects any electromagnetic signals to ground. Note: my coif might offer protection during thunderstorms, but that has yet to be tested.
I'm sorry, wtf?
@@Puddlef1sh- An aluminum chain mail coif as Faraday cage. A wire connects it to metal plates on shoe soles, grounding it. Or so he says. (Aluminum chain mail is real. For people who want the look, but not the weight or expense, of mail armor.)
Whats the diameter of the chain links? You may want to keep it below 5mm, ideally 1mm to prevent the nastier high frequency microwaves from getting through (almost) unhindered. Hint: most commercial grade microwave generators work in the 1 - 10GHz range, that's a wavelength of 3 - 30cm; you want to keep the gaps below 1/10th of the wavelength for ideal filtering - for this range that would be links smaller than 3mm.
It protects during thunderstorms if you can guarantee that the material between your skin and the aluminium is safe to several megavolts. If the mail touches your skin anywhere you are practically toast because it will also slightly increase the likelyhood of a lightning strike on yourself. Check the tesla coil fans for what they wear.
Personally I would go for the entire medieval suit of armor style, wearing leather clothing underneath (feels more natural and is pretty EM safe). If you go off the hinge, do it with style and for crying out loud don't let THEM know you are onto them - the medieval knight shtick helps greatly with that.
@@KonradTheWizzard I use a ring size of 6 mm, but this does not have a direct correlation with frequency. Ring size would have a correlation with frequency if I was using an open weave such as European 4 in 1, which is the standard for coifs. However, as I use a tight weave that is a hybrid of elven and European 6 in 1, the rings overlap so that no electromagnetic frequency can penetrate my coif from any angle without hitting a ring and being redirected to ground. Of course it is not 100% efficient, mostly due to signal reflection. But it works well enough to block any coherent signal.
As long as the space between your rings are smaller than the waves you're trying to protect against, and the chainmail is grounded.. I do in fact think this is plausible!
The government targets me like that too. Once a year, right around this time (April), actually. They send me messages telling me to give them money. I always just ignore them.
Yup - tin foil hats function as parabolic reflector antennas to focus certain frequencies in the brain. (Electromagnetic Environmental Effects engineer, here. We had a blast with the MIT paper, doing some E3 modeling ourselves... 🤣 )
I'm impressed and happy that Simon found the MIT study page on the subject of tinfoil hats. I'm not sure if the original still exists anymore? But there's a copy of it floating around still. Least there was the last time I went looking for it.
How do we know that the origin of the tin foil hat isn't a conspiracy theory?

No tinfoil hat for Simon. He's clearly playing for Keeps.😉
Thank you Simon for the great content. Would you consider doing a segment on people who’s magnetism prevents their watches from keeping accurate time?
My wife is one of those, and we’d love to know why a battery lasts about 2 days in any watch she wears, and any sprung watch won’t keep time. But they’re fine if she leaves them on her dresser.
I'm one of those. A mechanical watch loses hours a day. Some streetlights turn on or off as I pass by. I can make static on a radio or tv receiving analog by passing my hand near the aerial antenna. Elevators misbehaving. I think it's my strong aura.
Y’all clearly don’t know Simon if you think he could be respectful of that concept. Especially when the word “aura” comes in. It’s the kind of thing that would have him screaming “IT’S NOT REAL! YOU ALL ARE STUPID! IT’S A LIE!” all of which he HAS actually yelled on at least three other channels.
10 yr watch batteries, dead in 6 months. Laptop battery dead after using for 1yr and yes, was new, never used; all from having contact with skin on regular basis. Right now my cell is shielded by a phone case and screen protector. And have to replace my cell about every 2-3 years. I understand your troubles.
All I know is when I get mad, electronics start shutting down or glitching.
I have the same problem with watches, both mechanical and digital, never understood why.
I love that there have been actual studies, showing that the exact signals you would wanna block, are amplified.
"Design better protective gear. The gov't tricked you into wearing an amplifier." This is what I got from this episode.
The tinfoil hat may not be great at blocking mind control rays, but it reigns supreme as the ultimate method of social distancing.
Apparently electromagnetic hypersensitivity can be caused by heavy metal poisoning, so I would recommend that anyone experiencing this phenomenon seek out at least a basic detox
The answer to this is the case of Leonard Kille, co-creator of the Polaroid Land Camera, who ended up having Jose Delgado type stimoceivers implanted in his brain, became the basis of "The Terminal Man", and was eventually shuffled from the east coast to the west coast VA where they didn't bother to notate his surgery in his file. After he finally convinced a doctor to X-Ray his head where they found the stimoceiver, the doctor gave him a a big piece of tinfoil from the hospital kitchen to fashion a helmet to help him stop hearing radio signals, since (like a person with an old style mercury filling who has recently had an electric shock) he was picking up radio waves.
I had a couple of mercury amalgam fillings back in the sixties. There were three AM radio stations sited in and around our neighborhood. All through elementary school and junior high, the fillings would pick up either Top Forty, Mexican music, or CountryPolitan. So my teachers and classmates would get a shock every time Tammy Wynette would be whining in my head and I'd shout "NO, NO! BEACH BOYS, JAN AND DEAN, BEATLES, ANYTHING BUT THAT!"
The reason why it doesn't work is because it's suppose to be a tinfoil hat. Tinfoil hasn't been made for decades. It was replaced with aluminum foil.
There is a RUclips video of a man trying to see if the legend was true that one could catch catfish with pieces of bar soap. The problem is old soap used animal fat and new soap uses vegetable oil. Slight changes can change the results.
cool!
so therefore there is no way i can buy the real tin foil
The difference between a conspiracy and the truth is usually about three months.
Its because I can make a crack pipe out of it when not using it as a hat. Such ingenious can not be ignored.
I've had a cranial reconstruction surgery, some braces and wires, for 20 years I can start singing a song, then turn on the radio and hear the song playing. Radio waves do exist, and I'm sure they can be weaponized.
HEY ! ! ! ! ! Looking into that Lucille Ball/ Japanese spies story may be a superb video, if you can find enough material on it!
It is a known fact that metal fillings could pick up AM radio. Under rare circumstances.
.... I vote he reshoots this whole episode in a tinfoil hat.
seconded
I’d say the movie called “Signs”, but there was an episode of “Quantum Leap” when Sam years earlier also wore these type of foil made hats.
Great look into this phenomenon, thanks
They'd rather believe that some sinister organization is out to get them than face the truth that no one really cares or even notices them.
Keeps always gives me a laugh. "Did you know 2/3 men will experience some form of male-pattern baldness by the time they're 35?"
Me when I was 19: "You don't say?"
if you wear atin foil hat no one will know
@ 10:46 I've heard this before "Just because you're paranoid does not mean everybody's not out to get you!" On the other hand, that doesn't men they are either.
I had a room mate when I was in the Air Force that I loved fighting with. This wasn't in the nature of a difference of opinion. It was a physical contest. No I wasn't in any danger from it, and when he was reassigned to another place, he said I was the best room mate he ever had. To this day, that is the best compliment I ever had. No we were not out to damage each other per say, we were out to keep it up until one of us said the safe word, "Enough." Neither of us wanted to wear short sleaves during this or people would have got the wrong idea. I mean, we were fighting but personal injury was not the goal. We weren't even fighting to resolve a difference of opinion. We were doing it just because we enjoyed it. Just so you know, if anything came up, I had his back, and he had mine. I was very disheartened for him though when he got assigned to Hawaii rather than to Hayford England where is relatives were.
Nothing makes a person more paranoid than when everybody is out to get him. Phrased differently, nothing makes a person more paranoid than when he thinks that everybody is out to get him.
Tinfoil hats are clearly effective, or have you ever seen anyone wearing them being mind controlled by aliens?
That's like the time I told my buddy my rabbit's foot keeps elephants away, he said there were no elephants around for a thousand miles and I told him it's because it works really good.
Loose quote frome a show I watched as a kid:
Teacher: During a solar eclipse, tribal people would beat drums to make the sun come back
Student: That's stupid
Teacher: Well, it worked every time
Odin's existance is also proven like this. He promised us "no ice giants", and have you ever seen an ice giant? I rest my case.
I never wanted a tinfoil hat, but I really really want a Faraday suit

Simon, Given the earth itself is shielded by the electromagnetic field generated by its core, that the human heart is in some respects an electromagnetic generator, and that individual cells seem to communicate in part using EM wavelengths, it would be an interesting follow up to this episode if you Found Out and shared more about that :)
"Duuuude, where do you get your weed?" 🙂
@@mutantpoptart8060 No weed needed. All the facts in this post are really close to the truth. The implication that there is a connection to tin foil hats is a bit off...
Earth's liquid core does create a rather strong magnetic field that happens to divert charged solar particles away from the planet. When it fails to divert really high-energy particles you get northern lights. That's pretty much all the field does, apart from indicating some slowly moving point in northern Canada as the "magnetic north pole" and another frozen piece of land as magnetic south.
The heart does generate some electricity while it moves. You can measure it in the millivolts with either a specialized ECG or even a normal Oscilloscope. It's not much, but enough to allow diagnoses that have saved a lot of lifes.
Hmm. Most cells don't communicate significantly with EM. It's usually chemicals. In the case of nerves those chemicals happen to be ionized, which means you can disrupt nerve signals with electric shocks. Of if you use more advanced tech you can couple some implants directly with nerves (e.g. cochlea implants for hearing).
There are plenty of YT videos explaining all of those if you don't like reading it on more scientific sources...
@@KonradTheWizzard yeah I know, was quoting Grandma's Boy poorly as a joke :)
I can’t believe you didn’t end this video by saying « it doesn’t Hertz to be prepared »
The human mind dose work on low electron impulses. It wouldn't be impossible to turn it into a receiver. But pairing the right frequency would be a challenge.
To be a receiver the incoming singal EM wave would need to interact with the human brain in such a way as to induce meaningful signals in exclusively the right areas.
It's not just a matter of frequency, if some hypothetical signal could induce your neurons to fire it would give you a massive epileptic fit.
Yeah we dont have the hardware to tune amplitude so any mistake would mean the party transmitting flat out misses the transmission window, sends a whispers, or transmits screaming. And if you change your distance from the transmitter during the day changes would have to be made. You gotta wonder how many people would have to be involved in making that work for... architects and writers. Not exactly high-risk dissidents so i dont see the pay off for anybody to even try it long enough to get it working.
Also, sending info without getting any back? At this high of a cost? Sounds like a waste to me, just structurally. Thats not the point of espionage, to go out and give things away for nothing in return. Cause a little mayhem? That probably makes the list sometimes but i cant imagine doing it one person at a time is worth the trouble of trying to make it work.
Whole thing is weird and backwards
@@pudgeboyardee32 well I think you underestimate the depth people with money will pursue nonsensical studies.
Each nerve cell in the brain has a number of tentacles connecting it to other tentacles on other nerve cells. Electricity is transmitted within the cell, but to communicate between one cell an another, chemical reactions are used. Each connection is different and each brain is wired differently. Not just the frequency is needed to communicate, but the exact neurons to fire and the exact connection to fire, and that is difficult. It is even more difficult to do it at a distance. To communicate that way, you would need to trigger not just one connection, but many of them and trigger them precisely and in the right sequence. If I remember correctly, some promising research has been conducted to connect a specific brain to some specific equipment, but it does not follow what I have described here. In a nutshell, it would not be possible to transmit detailed enough information to a brain by use of a transmitter at a specific frequency.

My dad had an old Microwave (70's-80's) with a crack in it. If I was within 20ft of it while on I could 'feel/hear' it in my head, and it would get more intense (louder) the closer I would get.. fun times
I believe the lucy's fillings story because when I was younger there was a certain staircase in our apartment complex where if you sat at the top with a little 9v battery and a paperclip or staple we could hear this mexican radio station with some weird background interference (kind of like a theremin but not as wide ranged) when you touched the paperclip to the battery.
we did this multiple times, some days it didn't seem to work but if we went down a few steps usually it would start working again.
I still to this day do not fully understand how their was audible sound; even if that acted as an antennae there was no speaker for the sound to come from, just a paperclip.
Random thoughts....I was told by my father who had advanced degrees in electrical and chemical engineering...he said that unless the tinfoil hat wearer had pinholes in the foil after the attack, not to worry about it....E.H.S...My I.T. instructor who was our collage's I.T. hardware repair guy, could tell where I'd been on campus, when he discovered during class I was one of "those people" who could screw with hard drives....apparently some people are capable of carrying a static charge, and if one is obese, this charge is enhanced. My instructor made me wear a grounding strap through the rest of my college term. I never had issues with buggy collage computers thereafter...As a young kid, my dad would watch me get zapped by display cases when we'd go to stores with florescent lighting in the cases. He'd watch arcs come off the metal frames....I can see where people would think they're allergic to electrical fields. I think we can all feel electrical charges, but most of us just ignore it like it's the weather....If one is truly sensitive, I would think they wouldn't come out until after sunset, when the planet is between them and the sun...I guess I'm like Newton Pulsifer when it comes to computers and lead based batteries....

Is there some kind of headwear that will prevent Simon from making a dozen new RUclips channels? Blame it on the Wi-Fi or government if you wish but I think he's got a genuine compulsion problem.
RUclips punishes creators for making too many videos a day. So the way around it is to just make more channels if you want to make more than the "allowed" maximum. The "punishment" is your videos simply don't get recommended. Which as you may imagine cuts down on views.

sadly tinfoil isn't sufficient to block the magnetoencephalography used to prevent "them" from x-raying our mind. XD
@@MRKLYESTEP Did "they" tell you that?!
@@rumrstv I mean.. basic fucking physics lad.. Would sort of defeat the purpose of the shit if "thems" was telling us how their shit operated to defeat it would it not? :D
I've actually experienced a nocebo effect back when I was in 3rd grade in summer camp. These kids convinced me to believe this tiny hole broken in the middle of a concrete slab was cursed if I touched it and being that I was really gullible at the time, was convinced, touched it anyway, and then I felt a shockwave go up my arm as if I grabbed an electric fence. When some other kid came by and provided the logic that it's literally just concrete and dirt, it snapped me out of the paranoia the other kids gave me. I touched the hole in the concrete again and there was nothing. But I vividly remember being shocked through my arm the first time.
It's possible that you was shocked. If their was a ground fault in a nearby underground electric cable then individuals could be shocked under the right circumstances
@@crovax1375 I mean maybe but nobody else got shocked and I didn't either after the fact when I tried again. It seemed like solid concrete but there could've been some micro cracks in the hole where some of the dirt inside could've had some conductive material? Idk that was more than 3/4ths of my life ago haha
Maybe it was a static shock? If there was a piece of metal, it could have easily shocked you.
@@Mephitinae as far as I could tell, it was just concrete and broken up rocks and dirt. I mean it's possible I guess if tiny metal flakes were mixed it but none of it was visible
Absolutely, if you are reading this and have not tried Decoding the Unknown YOU NEED TO. I swear it's so good and i look forward to every episode!
wouldn't covering the top of your head with metal foil lead to overheating?
Heat transfers thru the metal unless you make your hat too thick. If you do that, that's your own ding-a-ling fault.
If you've ever had an x-ray, you should be familiar with the lead blanket they lay over parts you don't want radiated. It's all about shielding what you don't want radiated. The brain would be my first choice.
@@badassmother1426 the not even 1mm of aluminium with loads of layers is the same protection to a thick sheet of lead of course
@@captainheat2314 It's the reason they had to get rid of lead in house paint. It interferes with stingray, and other ways they see through the walls of your house.
The teeth picking up radio is a thing. When I was a teenager, I was in my dads apartment and it happened to me. When I moved into a specific spot in the apartment, my braces started vibrating and I could faintly make out the call sign of an AM news radio station he listened to a lot.
What you experienced is more common than most people think. Some of the metal in the braces acted like an antenna, and something similar to a small grain of sand trapped somewhere acted like a rectifier, so your mouth acted like a crystal radio. I heard an anecdotal rumor that someone heard a radio station in the bathtub, and as the bathtub was filled with water, it tuned to a different station. Your experience, while unusual, is not unique.
@@verlankliewer2124 yeah, when they shortened the wire in the braces, it stopped happening, so it was just lucky
I mean with declassified documents like on operations like operation Northwood / midnight climax and more famously MKultra can we totally rule out people claiming to have been experimented on with mind control sci-fi horseshit?
Experiments did happen, but the results seemed to be negative in more than ways than one.
If someone is (ex)military, and they said they were experimented on, I'd be willing to listen. If a civilian with a normal life suddenly starts hearing government voices in their heads, I'd tell them to seek mental help.
Because let's be practical: the government isn't going to experiment this kind of thing on civilians, there are just too many variables. If you wanted to run experiments like this on humans, you'd do it on humans you can control variables for, like military/prisoners/volunteers/etc. Groups who you can dictate their lives to: when they sleep, what they eat, constant measuring of vital signs, etc.

@@ShadowReignhart in what way were these experiments negative? 🤔
@@TheKrossRoads the government will not experiment on civilians? how about operation sea-spray?
Government did mind control experiment in a project called MK Ultra. Spanish man did experiment with a large bull before that.
I mean, obviously those hats are just can-tennas. You use the same foil to make a home-made wifi antenna and stick it in a tube with some wires coming out. Your skull is the tube, a big cavity, and your brain is the wiring.
These people hate 5g bouncing all over the place but you know... they kinda pioneered it by being the first human signal boosters and reflectors.
Several years ago when I worked for Home Depot a man came in to find out how much it would cost to buy enough copper wire to completely wrap his house. He claimed the government was spying on him. He left rather disappointed when he saw the cost of copper wire. Maybe he should just wrap his house in foil.
many do. Well, until their tv and internet is disrupted. Then the "many" turns into "a few" do.
Al foil is a good heat reflector on colder climates if you line your inner walls with it. On what layer though is debatable; before the insulation?, on the inside of the exterior sheeting?, Perhaps glued to the inner side of the sheetrock?
you get the idea.
In order for a “tin hat” to be truly efficacious, like any Faraday cage or an analog thereof, it needs to be grounded. A connection to ground allows the energy intercepted by a Faraday Cage to be dissipated away from the protected item.
In the case of the “tinfoil hat”, the energy that could be intercepted by the hat ends up only attenuated as there’s no really effective means to dissipate or shunt the energy away; as was pointed out, the effect of the hat as constituted, is frequency-dependent.
A grounded hat is ideal, but some protection from radiation can also be obtained from an ungrounded hat, provided the foil does not act to increase the radiation reaching the brain, provided that it does not act like an enhanced antenna.
I just wish I could have been in the room where it was decided that Keeps should sponsor a bald guy
The other week I didn't sleep for 7 days due to the storm outside. I started hearing weird noise, high pitched beeps, voices and music that wasn't there, it's crazy how your mind can play tricks on you. Maybe I just needed a tin foil hat:).
...or better drugs.
I have a tin foil hat hanging in my office. sometimes when a salesperson comes in i will say, hold on a sec before they start talking, then I put my hat on then say ok, ready! lol it's usually worth a good laugh or a memorable awkward moment.
I personally am inclined to believe the electromagnetic sensitivity like in better call Saul. Anyone who is a radio enthusiast (myself included) will know that there are often FCC warning labels warning not to be too close to an antenna that is transmitting, as well as some very high frequency transmitters having radiation warnings on them. Also interestingly enough, it’s been found that police officers are at a higher risk of testicular and ovarian cancers due to the high powered radios on their belt near their pelvis. I have also had an experience of my own. Near my Walgreens pharmacy drive through, there is a small black box that says “low frequency” just before the drive through window used to detect cars and give the employees a heads up. I have noticed that when I am parked next to it and it is roughly head height, while I don’t experience pain or nausea, I do get very irritated and over all very uncomfortable. But as soon as I pull away from the box as far as a few feet, the feeling instantly goes away. So do I think the electrio magnetic sensitive people really are being affected in a painful way and really are being affected by electricity, or it’s all in their head? I DONT KNOW. But what I do know is that some frequencies and affect the human body to some degree

If the radio is left on the belt while it is transmitting, then there would be strong radiation near that area. Sometimes the radio could be left on the belt but the microphone and speaker could be elsewhere. If the radio is removed from the belt while transmitting, then the high radiation would appear closer to where the radio is located.
@@verlankliewer2124 Calling 5 watts "strong radiation" or "high radiation" is a bit of a stretch.
I going assume your knowledge of radios and radiation comes from facebook, the alternative would be impolite.
@@muninrob My knowledge of radios and radiation comes from my background in radio and TV engineering. In the late 60's and early 70's, I worked in radio and television engineering. I have a first class radiotelephone license with a ship radar endorsement. I have not worked in the field for a long time, and the license might be called something different now. You are right, that the radiation from the radios of five watts is not regarded as strong radiation or high radiation, but integral to this conversation is the thought that this radiation, while weak by radio standards, might cause physical harm. If you double the distance between the transmitter and receiver, the field is 1/4th as strong. The strongest radio transmitters in the U.S. are 50,000 watts, much higher than the 5w police radios. I was told years ago that in Mexico, the strongest radios are 100,000 watts. I have worked as a transmitter engineer at one radio station that ran 5,000 watts in the day time and 1,000 watts at night, and I went to each of the six towers every day to take some readings. I have worked at 50,000 watt stations. I never experienced any symptoms from my exposure to electromagnetic radiation while working in that field. TV transmitters were different. The frequencies were higher, but there was little radiation in the transmitter areas. Police radios are different. They operate at higher frequencies but lower power than AM transmitters. I understand what you are saying and your thoughts and comments are competent and reasonable and even professional, although your assumptions about me are incorrect. There is virtually no radiation from the police radio while he is receiving audio from the dispatcher. There is radiation when he talks on the radio. If he removes the radio and brings it to his mouth when he talks, then I estimate the field strength to the area would be 1/16th the strength to the affected area than if he left the radio on his belt and talked through a different microphone. Decades ago, I also had a General Class Amateur Radio license.
I’ve had 6 cans, made one and stood in garden asking the sky questions, it’s 8:42am. I’ve completely lost it. I was focused mainly on alien wildlife. They didn’t signal back
I always thought the silliness started with the 2002 movie "Signs"
where the children and their uncle wear caps made from aluminum foil
to protect themselves from lizard-like spacemen.
Oh, no.... no. I remember the term 'tinfoil hat' being used in the 70s and 80s.
It was definitely around before then. Note that the movie never showed that it had any actual effect. It was just reflecting on the already existing conspiracy theory, not the cause of it.
Tin foil used to make sense for this reason. But nowadays tinfoil is in rare Supply, meaning you have to go to a hardware store such as Lowe's or Home Depot to get it. The stuff you buy in the store is aluminum foil. And not offers you no protection from the signals or radiation. The fact that people are still calling aluminum foil tin foil is a little concerning to me. I had to buy tinfoil, from Home Depot a few months ago. And just out of curiosity, I actually made a proper hat out of it. Doesn't work, I have no idea. But it makes an interesting display piece in my bedroom. And no, it isn't just the standard Wrap aluminum cone on top of your head. It's more like a motorcycle or paintball mask.
I like to make mine in the shape of a witches hat with steel wool stuck inside ( for extra protection) 😂
Also add rockwool, regular wool and merino wool for good measure. 😆
I tested that supposed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields and radio signals at my college once. I was told I had to leave a little art gallery or turn off my phone because the signals and electromagnetic fields from the phone disturbs people. So I left, pretended to shut my phone off, and came back and they said thank you that was much better even though my phone was actually still on. This shows that it was nothing but a placebo effect or completely made up.
Very little radiation comes from a phone that is on, but is not actively being used. The phone must communicate with the cell tower to let the tower know where it is and how to initiate further communication with the phone. When the phone does communicate, it is at regular strength, but the communication is brief when the phone is not active.
@@verlankliewer2124 I know how phones work, it just shows that the crap they come up with is all fake. When how it makes you feel changes based on nothing but what you believe is going on, you know there is no actual effect from it. They just hear the would radiation and immediately think it has to be harmful while totally ignoring what kind of radiation it is. Visible light is a much stronger tyoe of radiation than the radio waves a phone uses, but they completely ignore that and instead act as if phones are hurting them with their scary "RaDAtIoN."

I can feel CAT scans. The 2 MRI’s I’ve had caused extreme vertigo. One was an open MRI and the other was in a tube.
that's prob cause u have some type of metal in ur blood. prob from eating too much fish or getting too many needles popped in ur arm. or maybe using metal to cook/store ur foods and the little shavings break off into the food. Like fastfood has alot of ppm stuff in it cause of its storage practices. and the MRI is a giant magnet that starts exciting and pulling at that stuff.
