Not seeing what you don't anticipate to see, even when it is intrusive, loud, and obvious, is also incredible. Selective attention. This is a big reason why motorcyclists get hit on roads far more often than other vehicles (they are far less common; when people change lanes, they glance for cars and trucks) and why something like 70% of people don't see the gorilla in the Invisible Gorilla experiment.

@@meatmachine144 To be honest, I think there are more prominent reasons why bikers get hit by cars more often. First of all, they are _way_ more likely to vanish in the blind angle of a rear view mirror. Second, people underestimate how _fast_ a motorbike can accelerate. They are used to cars that are way heavier and often have much less engine power in comparison to weight, so they don't expect those things moving from A to B so fast. Hell, my old Golf weights about 1.2 tons and has way less than 100 horse powers. A BMW 1000 RR weights less than 200 kg with a full tank and has _212_ horse powers. That thing is a bloody catapult. And third, let's be honest, many bikers, especially the young ones, are downright irresponsible. I am always in a bit of discomfort when I hear that "Brööööööööööööööööööh..." from a fast motorbike when I am on the Autobahn or a rural road, because in my experience, you can and will never do what the person on that bike might do. I've encountered more than one biker passing me on the atuobahn, on my left side, _while I was on the left lane and passing someone else already._ I had more than one biker squeezing himself through the 1.50 meter gap betwen me and the guard rail. And yes, I've also actually encounterd more than one biker squeezing himself through the gap between my car and a truck. No, I am not trying to paint all bikers as irresponsible lunatics, but the repercussions of irresponsibility are usually much more grave when you are riding a bike.

​@@Furzkampfbomber In Phoenix, AZ in the sujmmer, daytime, excellent visibility. I was walking up a sidestreet towards a busy main road. I saw a big biker on a huge Harley stop and wait to make a left turn. Traffic was heavy, so he was there for a while. I watched as a lady pulled up from the other side of the main road (and so facing me). She looked left, right, looked right at the bike, and hit the gas. Slammed right into him. I hung around as a witness. Police showed up, she kept repeating what she'd said when she first got out of the car. Said the bike came out of nowhere. I've seen this even more up close and personal, riding my 10 speed. Numerous times I'd be riding on the main road, someone would pull up a side road, look left, right, look right at me and hit the gas. So many times I was nearly hit and probably killed, but I was paying attention and barely got out of the way. Many would speed away. The few that stopped all said the same thing, that I came out of nowhere. Somehow, on a sunny day with little traffic, they did not see me because they are looking for cars. I've had it happen when on foot, too. I look very closely at cars coming up sidestreets to see if they see me. I've had a number of times where I've ended up jumping on someone's hood to avoid getting run over me. And I'd often see them look right at me before hitting the gas, then claim that I must have come running from behind a building.

On the muscle memory thing, my father once told a story of having to do fire drills on the commerce ship he was working on. When it came to the real deal, the one in charge ordered them to go look for the key to the cabinet where the extinguisher was kept, even though it says "break glass in case of emergency" right on top of it. Luckily, someone did snap out of habit and broke the glass anyway. During training, they had always unlocked the cabinet with the key, rather than breaking and replacing the glass pane with every exercise and so that's what they initially tried to do when the fire broke out.

You can't access the thing behind it without breaking the seal, and thus signalling the surroundings something happened. Most of the times there are other automated signals attached to accessing the stuff behind the glass, and the broken glass indicates this specific detector set off the other automations. For instance, I know firefighters in the Netherlands take automated messages from these 'hand' detectors with more priority because of how they work.

When I was 7 or so, I was walking behind a truck with a couple friends, just as the backup beeper started. My friends jumped out of the way. I froze so badly, the driver, who'd seen us walk behind the truck or saw my friends yelling at me, got out and walked back to find me still frozen. He yelled at me to move out of the way. I could not move. He had to physically move me. As soon as he started moving me, I could move again. I hated that. I really felt completely helpless. I thought about it a LOT. I have spent a lot of time thinking about how to respond to different situations. I think that is why now I am the one who keeps moving when others around me freeze.

Hey man how's the journey?

I've worked with a SWAT team before, and its amazing how they train out this cognitive blink. They call it target acquisition. The drill is basically they will have a number of colored balloons, maybe 6 different colors and 15 balloons. They will take all the balloons on a bus (or wherever they are training), and tape them around head height. Sometimes they will even tape a balloon on the shoulder of an actor. The as the SWAT team are rolling up in their APC, or sometimes even moments before getting on the bus, the team leader will radio them what color balloon is the "bad guy." In this scenario they are instructed to use lethal force from the start. The SWAT guys do their thing and board the bus, while INSTANTLY shooting all of the bad guy balloons with literally no hesitation. To make sure they also get human targets, an actor will randomly be selected to be a bad guy as well, and that actor gets some padding and a huge face shield because the sim rounds hurt lol. My point being, these guys basically train like this constantly, and they really do train out any hesitation whatsoever before they shoot. I could see the newer guys were a bit slower too, especially when it can to lighting up an actor. and sometimes actors were given the extra gear without being a bad guy too, so the team couldn't just keep that actor covered in particular. Its also conforting to know that if i'm ever held hostage and the bad guy puts his arm around my neck to hold me, the SWAT team will just instantly shoot him in the face the moment they see him. And they don't miss. They ran that drill over and over and over and never a single time did any of the guys miss any balloons, or hit the wrong target. The only missed a target once or twice

Related as they may be. And I made no claims otherwise. Perhaps there is some other usage of these words with which I WOULD be incorrect, but not as I have used them. *Edit:* Am I too verbose? I think so. Am I being a pedant? Absolutely, and intentionally. Is this a bother? Probably. But am I wrong? No. And it bothers me that you say so.

In Phoenix, AZ in the summer, daytime, excellent visibility. I was walking up a sidestreet towards a busy main road. I saw a big biker on a huge Harley stop and wait to make a left turn. Traffic was heavy, so he was there for a while. I watched as a lady pulled up from the other side of the main road (and so facing me). She looked left, right, looked right at the bike, and hit the gas. Slammed right into him. I hung around as a witness. Police showed up, she kept repeating what she'd said when she first got out of the car. Said the bike came out of nowhere. I've seen this even more up close and personal, riding my 10 speed. Numerous times I'd be riding on the main road, someone would pull up a side road, look left, right, look right at me and hit the gas. So many times I was nearly hit and probably killed, but I was paying attention and barely got out of the way. Many would speed away. The few that stopped all said the same thing, that I came out of nowhere. Somehow, on a sunny day with little traffic, they did not see me because they are looking for cars. I've had it happen when on foot, too. I look very closely at cars coming up sidestreets to see if they see me. I've had a number of times where I've ended up jumping on someone's hood to avoid getting run over. And I'd often see them look right at me before hitting the gas, then claim that I must have come running from behind a building.

It's also a load of bull. The sources have been discredited by numerous other historians; On Killing is not as enlightened as it makes itself out to be. From Wikipedia: Robert Engen, in a paper for the Canadian Military Journal critiquing On Killing, both praised and criticized Grossman's works, saying: "On Killing and On Combat form an excellent starting point, there are too many problems with their interpretation for them to be considered the final word on the subject."[1] Grossman's response to Engen, printed in the same journal, addresses the criticisms by showing that S.L.A. Marshall's findings, even after having doubt cast on their methodology, have borne out in further scientific studies and real world experience, and furthermore, have been the cornerstone of military and police training for over a half century.[3]

I think one form of freezing up that i encounter everyday is when a light turns green at a traffic light. Often times people will hesitate for a few seconds if nobody else moves but as soon as one car starts to go everybody else realizes it’s safe and snaps back into reality. It’s interesting because I’ve been in both mindsets I’ve had times where I just wait for another car to go and then afterwards wonder why I hesitated despite it being safe but then I’ve had many times where I check to see it’s safe and confirm the lights green and start to go and wonder why everyone else didn’t start to drive before me then oftentimes the cars that hesitated will almost speed past me as if they realized their supposed to go now and wanted to catch up.

These are more examples of social anxiety issues we have to deal with. If you get involved you will have to sacrifice time energy/whatever and also take responsibility for taking action (when things could very well have been just fine and they didn't want your input thank you very much) By taking action yourself, it compels others around you that FAILING to act is itself an act they will need to take responsibility for, and it drags them in. Or it's a bit of the eagle flying around, the birds in the trees first stop singing, then when one bird decides it wants to fly away from the eagle, suddenly the entire group takes off at the same time.

Freezing when faced by a predator is often the smartest thing to do. Most predators have a strong impulse to chase anything that runs from them, It's basically a clear sign of fear in the prey. If you stand your ground you can sow the seed of doubt in the mind of the predator. This also play an important role within species social interactions. However in family group species the tribe comes first so many members will wait to see the majority reaction. You cannot have a group of leaders.

I do enjoy your videos, they are so real and accurate. I hope those who have never been in battle pay attention. I recall a time in 1971 in Vietnam. I was a communicator, it was my mission to keep the rear area advised on the progress of a mission into enemy territory in an attempt to slow down the infiltration of arms and men into the area from the North. We came under ground attack of our small firebase located near the border where the attacks were aimed. I ended up in a bunker on the parameter, now I was a farm boy, I grew up with a rifle in my hands. My cousins and I used to practice with our .22's lighting farmers matches at a distance where only the red was visible, and we got quite good at that. The 5.56 ammo that we had in the M-16 was, in fact a very fast .22. The rifle had no recoil and was very accurate if you knew how to use it. In the same bunker was a member of the infantry unit that was supposed to be keeping our little base secure, attacking were some damn good soldiers out of North Vietnam, regulars, not the VC that we were used to seeing. There were three soldiers running full on toward our area of the fence, which had been blown down by rocket fire earlier in the day. The infantry man beside me had his rifle on full auto, and was trying to hit those enemy soldiers. I looked out the slit in our bunker and saw his ammo hitting the ground some 6 feet in front of our bunker. So for some reason I still had my head about me, I took quick aim, much like I had when I was a boy with my .22, and killed the three enemy. When things had settled down, the infantry man who was with me was jumping up and down proclaiming himself the "king of the bunker!" claiming 3 kills. Personally I didn't give a shit about counts, and let him go with his claim to fame. I was just happy to have survived the attack, and to get back to my radio teletype rig and some peace and quiet.

Lindybeige has me hooked. I love history. Being a Homeboy from L.A., I often think how it would playout if Lindy was a L.A. gang member explaining his experiences and war stories. Planning a driveby and looking for those other "chaps". Shooting projectiles from their conveyance.

I know that the soldiers the interviewed spoke of this years later about how they almost blew their shoulder/face off from recoil or explosions.I also know some of them who survived the battle while cleaning and maintaining their muskets, realized what they did. This led to the U.S Army switching to human shaped silhouettes to get soldiers used to shooting at similar shaped silhouettes in real battle. Ill edit this as soon as i can find this article.

You have a similar phenomenon in riots. It depends on each persons threshold for freaking out. There might be one maverick who will be the first one to throw a brick or Molotov, but there might also be ten people who will throw bricks if one other person. Then there are those with a threshold of 10, 20, 30. By the time you get to 100 people rioting, even your grandmother would join in because everyone has a threshold below 100.

I have absolutely no memory of what happened the rest of the night, until a couple of hours after daylight the next day. I now see how that can be very possible. But I got through it, and apparently performed in a way that was acceptable to my officers.

Can you make a video where you just curse and make threats for 30 minutes straight?

I'm a new aircraft mechanic and have seen two instances that are similar to this reaction. One guy had an engine (APU, commercial jet) start up in the hangar. My boss and I just kinda, blank stared at the tail where the engine was, and snapped out of it a few seconds later and broke into a sprint to hit the auto shut-down.

Looking back on schoolyard or summer camp fights, every kid that was actually dangerous in fights was a victim of extreme abuse at home. We've all seen (or been unlucky to be a part of on either side) those school fights where a kid punches another in the chest....and then the other grabs the scruff of his collar and proceeds to give him 3 brain contusions and a 10k dental job. The only way a child has the instinct to do that as from seeing it or experiencing it first hand.

A couple days ago, my mom pushed the button to lower the garage door. She had forgotten to close the tailgate on her new car, and the lowering garage door collided with the tailgate of the car and left a big scratch in the paint before it stopped and lifted itself back up. My mom saw the collision about to take place, new what was going to happen, had her finger still on the button to stop the garage, yet she stood there in absolute horror and watched the entire thing take place without moving. People often freeze when they see something they didn't expect to see. If you see somebody suddenly stab another person right in front of you, you are far more likely to just stand there motionless for several seconds than you are to try to run or apprehend the attacker. It is literally your consciousness trying to determine that this absolutely crazy thing happening in front of you is actually really happening. You likely would be under the immediate assumption that it was all an act. If we lead a more violent lifestyle as humans, with dangers around every corner, you would be much less likely to freeze up. If you see a person get stabbed once a week, it is nothing new to you, it isn't shocking, you don't immediately assume it is fake. You would react to it as you would any other common occurrence. For example, you don't freeze up when you walk in on somebody eating a meal. This is also why your mom stood there in the doorway for several seconds that time you forgot to lock your door while masturbating.

@@AlienRelics That is very true. A lot of people say things like "You never know how you'll react to a situation until you are in it." but in my experience, I've gone through different scenarios so many times in my head that when that rare event does happen, I don't panic and I get done what needs to get done. And even when an event happens that I never thought about, I still perform well because I've conditioned myself to step back, observe, and make a decision.

I do martial arts and occasionally do performances. They are always very physically demanding and require a great deal of focus. I actually don't remember any single one of my performances. Except for certain body feels, each one is a complete and absolute blank, including vision. I think the same thing of people flying into a blind rage or seeing red is this exact same sort of thing

Fussing / being stuck in a loop is quite easily observable when you are overstimulated (think amphetamines/adrenaline) and haven't slept for at least a day. The longer you go without sleep the shorter the loop becomes. I can imagine that on the battlefront you'll push both of these aspects to an extreme.

Dwight K. Schrute yup, today I took ritalin to do a uni assignment and ended up fussing over getting as many sources, and as much information as possible. Now I have an absolute surplus of information on the Mongol Empire, I think I know even more than the lecturer, and somehow I have to figure out what’s the most important information and how to put it into 1200 words. I’ve cursed myself with too much knowledge. The problem is that without Ritalin I get nothing done, but with Ritalin I do too much.

I have double-dosed in the past, and it was fine, possibly because I was underprescribed (Long story but imagine you had superhuman kidneys). How much did you take? The effect should be to calm you down and to help you to reflect on what you are doing.

@@usainvanrudisha1649 : Here's a secret that (not taking into account ADHD _or_ Ritalin) tends to _help_ - Just start with something, and throw it away and start again in 15 or 30 minutes. The second version will be better _because_ the first one sucked- the suckitide will also serve to make the good bits more obvious, so you'll put those in the next version, change up the bad bits, and maybe none of them will actually make it to the final version, but they were only there to get you moving, so it's fine. Similar sort of thing gets done by artists- they just smear some paint on the canvas at first with no regard to _what_ they're painting, because it's easier to do painting after they already put down paint than while the canvas is still "bare".

On the subject of order by committee, I'm reminded of the excuse given to me when it was realised I'd been sent off to do a job with the wrong material: "Everyone signed off on it, so it's nobody's fault". 🤔
