It is exactly this phenomenon that makes this the "most British" Lindybeige episode ever. In-depth analysis of a non-problem, combined with an emotional state that approaches a sense of near-terror while contemplating the non-consequences ... performed staggering about in a nightgown (how very Arthur Dent!)

I feel like the best “invisibility” is something akin to a perception filter from Doctor Who. You aren’t really invisible (so you won’t get the side effects like needing to be naked, not being able to see because your retinas are transparent, etc) but everyone will overlook you. You’re functionally invisible, not actually invisible.

his "distraction as invisibility" bit reminds me of the driving awareness ad where you are told to count blue cars or something (I forget it's a visual counting task) as you watch a crowded intersection. The punchline of the ad is, "Yup, there are seven blue cars. But did you see the dancing panda?" An instant replay of the scene shows that a giant dancing panda-suited guy does indeed saunter right across the screen. The moment you aren't looking for a visual task, there it is, rather highlighting the danger to cyclist and pedestrians of distracted drivers aren't looking for them.

The Inconceivable man is much harder to fight than the invisible man, nobody can even think of challenging him

A couple thoughts after watching: 1, being invisible to yourself, assuming you could still see, wouldn't be as crippling as being unable to walk. We have something called a kinesthetic sense, which is just a sense telling us where our body is in relation to itself. So you would still easily avoid smacking your hand into your face and walk easily on flat ground, but you would still have a lot of trouble on rough terrain, climbing, on inclines, etc. You can try this for yourself by paying attention to when you need and don't need to look where you're walking or at your feet to not trip. 2, an idea I had for my tabletop campaign, to throw my hat into the ring is a sort of wolf-esque creature that could turn invisible by sustaining a specific noise it had evolved to produce using air sacs and extra vocal cords to continually breathe. That obviously gives their general position away, but still gives the creature a big advantage while it hunts, as it otherwise functions with perfect invisibility.

This is why my favorite "invisibility" power is The Shadow's (from the radio play). He uses a form of telepathy / hypnosis in order to make sure he isn't perceived by the crooks he fight. He is invisible to everyone in the room he fights against, but someone hidden from him, someone who is a master of telepathy themselves, or maybe even a camera can see him

Regarding the bit about knowing where your own body is without being able to see it, I strongly believe this to be a non issue. There may certainly be some 'weirdness' or some adjustment period, but we have an innate sense of where all of our body is at any given moment. It's easy to test, shut your eyes and move about, move your fingers and such. You will find quickly that you have awareness of *exactly* where they are, at all times, in relation to your own body. The hardest part, then, would be in figuring out the distance to objects and mapping your movements to that object without being able to see yourself as a reference point. But this doesn't seem to be much of a problem either- take the action of catching something moving at high speed, the catch is often, a reflexive, or near reflexive action. You don't have time to look at where your hand is, and in fact it's very possible you will not see it at all if you're catching above you, but your eyes will be intensely tracking the movement of the object and providing all the information you need to position your body to intercept it accordingly. I think you got very close to this point when you mentioned walking, even on unfamiliar terrain we prefer to look ahead of us to map out where to step instead of to check our own legs to assure ourselves we're doing it right. As long as we have a relatively solid idea of where objects are we can generally interact with them no problem. It would of course be really weird at first, but I think something that would be negligible given time.

Stevie Wonder is pretty good at playing piano despite not being able to see the keys.

Nice video! Being able to produce and publish an hour-long monologue on the pros and cons of "invisibility" is surely one of the great gains of social media!

The best "Invisibility" spell I've read about was one that, rather than making the person or group invisible, instead made the people seeing them not care that they saw them. They still registered enough that people got out of their way, but they just didn't care who they were.

​@@sumdumbmick Missing the premise a bit, aren't you? The point of the invisibility is to go unnoticed. Most places, planetwide, have a general expectation that you'll be wearing *some* amount of clothing. How you feel about the morality of it really doesn't alter the situation. If we suppose that you're invisible trying to be a spy and eavesdrop royal secrets in the throne room - where all the guards, royals, courtiers, and everyone else are clothed as per their custom - and your invisibility wears off leaving you naked, you will be spotted. It will not matter how you feel about clothes when they yell "SEIZE THE SPY!!!" and the guards will not care that it's perfectly natural when they're told to behead the naked spy. THAT is why it's nerve-wracking. Because unless you're in a nudist colony, "wearing off" would flip you from unnoticeable to the center of attention in an instant. If you don't know it's coming, that's a big problem.

"invisibility is always given only to the hero" When enemies are given invisibility, it is often partial or imperfect invisibility, that can still be seen, such as elites in halo or vampires in oblivion.

Another problem with invisibility is does your eyelids work in shielding your eyes from light, if not well you wouldn´t be able to keep out the light, which is perhaps why alot of invisible people wear dark glasses.

Everything is made of very tiny things called atoms. The type of the atom determines what it can do. Some atoms can explode, and when they explode, they make other atoms explode, and when a lot of them explode, they can destroy entire armies or cities all at once. Our greatest alchemists have weaponized this ability. They create massive rockets which they control through their special relics to hit anything in the world. Major drawback: the places you destroy in this manner are poisonous. Other drawback: everyone will hate you and some may direct their alchemists to attack you with their weapons on you, which is undesirable.

A simple solution to the issue with the king worrying about assassins could be a see through mesh that’s placed over entry way that Isn’t already covered with a door. Or perhaps the floor is covered in a fine dust that makes peoples foot prints very clear. If magic is readily available there could be counter spells to invisibility that allow a magically inclined guard to ensure there aren’t any invisible intruders. Maybe it’s possible to just flat out place a rune or some other object somewhere that straight up dispels any and all magic but comes with it’s own problems because now even if you find the intruder you don’t have magic of your own to deal with them.

So when you're invisible in TES, you're actually very much your regular completely non-transparent self, it's just nobody (except for game scripts, heh) can see you because they're being magically fooled.
