What is the title of the video: How brain damage can make you genius How does title relate to the content: Click bait to a scientific sounding gibberish.

I love when fiction is written with an inspiration from reality. Although this would only apply for base instincts as I don't see how memories could get sent from your brain to your sex organs. At best you could alter your epigenome through experiences (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2579375/ fun paper to check out if you want to go down that rabbit hole) but I don't see how you could alter your genetics to have your current memories due to how memory is a reconstruction that'd only really make sense to the original creator of that memory. In any case this video is more focused on how our genetics cause our brains to wire a certain way and thus contribute to our conscious experience with a shared or universal human experience. In a sense this is sort of true, but there's obviously going to be environmental factors that might make your experience unique to just you even if initially you had similar wiring to everyone else.

that's a misconception. while reduced bloodflow can make a brain area decrease its abilities, more bloodflow cannot make a brain area increase its abilities. but neuroplasticity (meaning other parts of the brain compensating for the lost abilities of the damaged brain area) does happen a lot (although it takes time and training). so you were right of that phenomenom, but were wrong about the explanation. still it does not make you a savant. when brain damage makes you a savant, it's because some specific areas of your brain are damaged, which would otherwise inhibit some special abilities, because before the damage, not having those special abilities makes you more adapted to daily life and survival

Carls Jungs theories of the collective unconscious containing hundreds of archetypal symbols that underpins our religions and culture has been scientifically vindicated by the Electric Universe group at Thunderbolts.info They do plasma research and many of the symbols have been duplicated in electric plasma labs. The other place the symbols occur is in ancient rocks and the ancients saw cataclysmic plasma displays in the sky that wiped out most human and animal life. So the ancients were right to record these scary happenings. It never occurred to Carl Jung that the sky in ancient times was vastly different to what we see today. Not his fault. So he was RIGHT after all. And this lovely documentary explains the origins of Jungs symbols that he catalogued visiting isolated cultures all over the world.

Our biggest mistake today is assuming our unchanging skies today have always been that way.

I will say I'm unhappy with the conclusion of this video that perhaps skills are always present but dormant but I am happy with the tone carried throughout that there is much we don't understand about how skills are developed. All of this being said I've yet to educate myself on Carl's views and frankly all of the sources provided.

I'm pretty skeptical about the first guy. I can maybe imagine getting your neurons scrambled in just the right way might make it where you have a greater ability to understand music, but playing piano is about WAY more than your brain. It involves muscle memory which literally takes thousands of hours to develop. And it literally happens in the muscles and even the bones of your hands, so a knock on the head isn't going to affect that at all.

Warning: After watching this video don't try to damage your brain. 😂
At 4 years old while in preschool, I was playing tag and tripped on a water hose, hitting my forehead on the corner of a metal sink (no fucking idea why there was a sink outside). Gash was a quarter sized, my dad told me that doctors had clear view of my brain. After that, as early as 7 years old I gained a crippling fear of mortality, and death. I constantly worried about the days where my parents would die, pets would die, and then I would wonder what comes after that? That young, I couldn’t rationalize any of it. Sometimes I think it was that fall that jolted my subconscious into worrying about death. Interesting video showing the positives of such events!
I very much enjoyed this documentary! I enjoyed as we learn more about our biology the more fascinating and intricate it is and how little we know about it. I cannot wait until the next video!
Kids with autism have a photographic memory and are great at math. Stephen Wiltshire is a man who was born with autism. He can draw entire cityscapes by going on one helicopter ride and viewing it from the sky. He has his own art studio.
This has got to be the only accurate characterization of Jung's idea of the collective unconscious on the internet. So used to hearing it described as some sort of shared psychic connection that whenever it comes up I'm like "oh no".
omg. This channel provides such mind-blowing information. I can't believe that some musical abilities are hidden in our DNAs... that's so mysterious. I know the history of my family quite well, and I have heard that all of my mom's relatives were inclined to learning languages. My Gran spoke English, German, and somehow Afrikaans freely, and my aunt's the biggest passion was Spanish. Does this mean that I may have these skills too, hidden somewhere in my brain, sleeping and waiting to be woken?.. woah.
Really? A video about brain damage doesn’t have subtitles turned on? Oh the irony, since I need subtitles due to brain damage. 🤦🏻♀️
Throughout history, different ancient people would practice Trepanning (drilling a hole in the skull). Maybe they did it to alleviate swelling. Maybe they did it as an attempt to unlock genius mode?
I believe everyone of us is a genius. All it takes is the ability and patients for you to be able to listen to your self and keep practicing certain thought patterns/rhythms in your brain. You just need to practice thinking and concentration/focus. Your brain is like a muscle, the more you exercise it the stronger it becomes. Your brain is also very elastic and stretchy and the more stretching it the more you can do with it the more intelligence you release. Don't ignore your thoughts or your weaknesses but you think you have, use them as an advantage and they will become your strengths. I really have no idea what I'm talking about, I can barely read or write.

Yes, it is more believable that there is Intersect capability already existing in our brains... Than that when presented with a new condition, the changes in the brain as well as the desire to return to normal... create leaps in ability by attacking the problem differently than before.
The guy learned to play arpeggios, is all I can tell. These are simple sounds everyone has heard. For some reason he became fixated on them. If that's all your music is, you could learn that in a day, no problem. He had the manual dexterity to pick it up faster than average, possible, but as long as you can hear pitch, this is not at all complicated, musically.

Percussive maintenance was the solution the whole time. Amazing.
My Traumatic Brain Injury only left me with short term memory loss and reduced the speed with which my memory recall is processed. Which affects my verbal communication. Writing my thoughts down, and reading/editing them many several times, is the best way for me to communicate my actual thoughts. Otherwise it comes out fragmented.

the ad at the end for brilliant struck a cord in me. when I was very young I fell out of a tree and head my head in multiple places on the way down, having hit my head on multiple branches, the wooden railing of the tree house, and the ground on the way down. I became a talented mathematician. up until 9th grade, where a teacher destroyed my mathematic capability by forcing me to explain how I got to the results. I couldn't explain how I got there, because I didn't know how. I instantly knew the answers to the variables and to the equation. In the bit about brilliant, there was a cryptogram. I struggled with variable math the last time I tried it. this time, I solved it in a less than a second. I instantly knew. B can only equal 5 because given the positioning of 1B + B6 = 71 this inherently means that the numbers in the equation must be 15 + 56 = 71. I thought I had completely lost this ability, thank you!

Whats the piano song called at 3:03?
It must be the case information can be stored in the brain without us knowing just the fact that sometimes when you try to remember something you can't but then it all of a sudden it pops back into your mind.
I'm curious how different musical systems such as that of Indonesia's Gamelan would fit into that universal musical experience idea. I'm currently in the process of reading _How Emotions are Made_ (by Lisa Feldman Barrett) and have started really questioning whether there's anything truly universal about our human experience.
Fantastic documentary!
After seeing this video Me: Alexa have can I damage my brain
Your brain stores memories from a previous life. Those memories are dormant in this life and reactivate with the injury. I have no idea, just writing thoughts. Playing an instrument is sonething that takes years of practice.
Great information thank you.
Perhaps the doubt function is recursive and resource intensive on the brain and is one of the first higher functions to be disabled by the brain just as the its heal from any damage.
Sometimes while I'm falling asleep and drifting off I can hear music. Whole multi-instrument songs. I've always wanted to control this. Its beautiful to hear, wish I could play it all.

same but I hear voices of people instead
Cm is the vi scale degree in Eb Major, and is a lovely, often wistful sounding interval.
Where can I get the music Used in this video?
Whoa! These are some of the *realest superhero/mutant origin stories!*
The catch of this scheme is if you don't actually die.
When you can't figure out a Baba is You puzzle but the answer comes to you in a dream.

Great video!
Savant and genius are different concepts. One makes you exceptional at something like art, music, or math, etc. Genius is a more abstract term. Head trauma making someone smarter in general or developing sudden genius syndrome comes with trade offs. It's not necessarily what people imagine or fantasize about. There's a cost for everything. This takes me to Phineas Gage and his behavioral and personality changes.
It sounds like things the brain processed and didn't consciously absorb. Like the subconscious is holding on to what it's processed of music and anatomy but not giving that back in the form of composing and artistry. If you've ever listened to a language a lot and felt like you SHOULD know what they're saying by now but you just can't grasp it, that's a good example of something your brain picked up but won't share. I have no idea why this happens but often people who get brain injuries and wake up fluent in a language they never learned are nearly always found to have had a lot of exposure to that language before their accident (be it listening to subtitled anime or learning german in high school and enjoying listening to the language). It's been shown before that the brain locks away things that the conscious mind can't handle, like memories or skills, so if we're taught that we need to learn things before we can do them, then why wouldn't the brain use that teaching to add a block in childhood to keep us from knowing things we feel like we haven't put enough work into yet?
Me and my siblings can draw extremely well, even though we barley practice. My younger brothers started drawing when he was like 6 or 7 and he could draw realstic portraits right away. I know people who practice art/drawing everyday and they aren't as good as me or my siblings. I hate it when people say that talent doesn't matter amd practice makes perfect. No, in some people, no matter how much they practice they can't become really skilled if they don't have an eye for details and can't see mistakes/asymmetries. This documentary proves that real artistic talent is heavily influenced by brain structure.
wait. so youre saying my brain isnt really just poop, but genius poop?
What’s confusing is that they all inherit human-synthesised tasks. Is it that they were always able but not consciously so?
Man, some people get all the cool life threatening injuries. I smacked my head in a motorcycle accident and all I got was a wonky sense of smell 😤
It's all about seeing patterns. Our brain loves that stuff
That answer's how humanity learned to milk the cow, do agriculture and fishing. A whack on the head from a wife and man is suddenly motivated enough to do a dumber thing and get whacked again.
I taught myself how to Draw, Sing, And think, survive. I mainly follow my intuition, it also tells me to follow.
I can watch this channel all day.
Thank you for making so amazing videos. This channel is amazing ❤️🔥🔥.
I think this is true cause when you heal things can change and get rewired and you could possibly think different.
Fascinating topic. Scientifically mysterious.
