Here's a fun fact: your thoughts not only have velocity but also have mass. A very, VERY miniscule amount of mass. But mass nonetheless. Which means that you can actually calculate the impact force each thought has as it passes by. We also know that the average human mind generates roughly 50-70 thoughts per minute. This is amplified by overthinking as well. A symptom usually brought on by anxiety, depression and a handful of other mental disturbances. On average, the overthinking mind can generate 2-3x the normal amount of thoughts. Between 100-150 thoughts per minute. Considering that each one is firing off at roughly 240/kilometers per hour, and each one has a mass of roughly 1 in 10 trillion. We can estimate the give force of the overall impact. I won't bore you with all the math behind it, but all told, a depressed mind that is overthinking at roughly 90 thoughts per minute will have generated enough force to simulate the force of a dart being thrown into your skin divided by 2. Every. Single. Minute. It doesn't sound like much, but try to imagine someone pricking you with a needle every single minute that you're depressed. Which is on the more lighter side. If you've got severe depression and suffer from anxiety and have troubles with overthinking, you can expect to be 1/3 closer to that sense of having a dart flung at you with full force. Again, every single minute.
@@Yak.indebox lol first i want to ask you that what is the meaning of speed of thought? If you are talking about connection and transmission between our brain cells and body. Then no, Speed of thought is not more than speed of light. It could be close but didn't equal to spped of thought. But some people argue that it is not speed of thought. Thought is not dependent on transmission. It means you think something which is happened in instant but it is pretty vague and unexplained thing. You can't call it faster than light without any proof.
Anticipation or "priming" matters. Lots of examples. A fun one I did as a kid in class. If someone is eating a bag of chips, grab it out of their hands; you can easily do it if they don't suspect anything. Then try it again, but this time tell them you are going to do it. They will almost certainly clench their hand before you can reach them. Without priming, it takes a long time for the brain to realize that you are about to grab the bag out of their hands; there is no survival instinct that kicks in. You will most likely have grabbed it before they even realize what is happening. But if they know to expect it, they can react in much less time than it takes you to complete the physical movement towards them. This is different from other reflexes like how we blink if we see something coming at our face. Those kinds of responses occur before we are consciously aware of the danger. Again, lots of experiments demonstrating this sort of behaviour. Priming shows up in more than just visuomotor responses. It's a common problem when creating a survey. How you word a question or what other topics you discuss first has a measurable effect on how you will answer the following questions. For example, being reminded of religion will make you more honest and more altruistic; even if you aren't religious. Seeing higher prices before lower ones will make the lower ones seem objectively low, even if they are much higher than you would normally see for a similar item elsewhere. There are many ways to take advantage of this and ways to control for it and avoid it in testing.
This video gives me an additional chuckle when the mortal enemy's eyes go askew like the cartoon series 'Ed, Edd and Eddy' character, Ed's eyes do. Good video.
While this video is quite good, I would also want to know the actual speed of thought - not simply how fast it physically takes to travel inside our bodies. For example, when we just think about things in our own head, with no real physical reaction to it. How do we go about measuring the speed of that?
