This Video Will Hack Your Brain! IMPOSSIBLE BRAIN HACKAdded:
This video will hack your brain. Yep, you heard it right. In the next 8 minutes, your fingers will move on their own. You will see colors that aren't there, and I will read your mind twice.
This is the most dangerous challenge on YouTube. Not dangerous for your body, dangerous for your brain. There are five levels in this challenge. Easy, medium, hard, extreme, and impossible. But first, only 1% of viewers can like this video and subscribe in the next 3 seconds. 3 2 1. Did you do it? Good. You are already in the top 1%. Now, let's see if your brain can keep up. Okay, this is level one, the mind readading trick. I want you to pick a number, any number between 1 and 10. Got it? Hold it in your mind. Don't change it. Now, I already know your number. Here's why.
>> 5 4 3 2 1. Most humans, when told to pick a number between 1 and 10, pick the number seven. It's the most random feeling number in your brain. Scientists actually call this cognitive bias in random selection. Did I get it right?
Comment the number you picked right now.
But wait, that was just the warm-up.
Level two goes deeper. This is level two, the physical illusion, and it will feel crazy. Ready? Do exactly what I say. Stand up right now. Find a door frame or walk to the side of a wall.
Press the back of both your hands outward against the door frame hard. As hard as you can. Keep pressing. Keep pressing. Don't stop.
5 4 3 2 1.
>> Now step away from the door. Let your arms hang down loose. 3 2 one release.
Your arms are floating up on their own like magnets, like wings. You are not doing that. Your muscles are doing it without you. That is your brain being tricked. That is level two complete.
comment floating if your arms moved.
Three challenges back to back. No breaks. First one to miss loses the level. Are you ready? Let's go. Find the odd emoji. You have 8 seconds. 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Did you find it? Two pictures, three differences. 10 seconds. Go. 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 How many did you spot?
Comment your score. 1 2 or three. What word do these emojis spell? Think fast.
7 seconds. 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Lion King. Did you get it? Level three done. But level four, this is where people quit. The reaction challenge. The rules are simple. Do not smile. Do not laugh. And do not look away. Because I am about to show you something very serious. 3 2 1.
Did you smile? Be honest. comment lost it or stoneface right now. The people who smiled just lost level four. The rest of you, you are in the top 3% of viewers on this channel. Level five is next, the impossible level. Okay, this is the one that breaks people. Stare at the center of this image. Do not look away. Keep your eyes locked on the black dot in the middle.
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. Now look up to a wall or a plain surface near you. The wall is moving. That is called the motion after effect. Your brain got so used to the spinning pattern, it now sees motion on still surfaces. For real.
That is real neuroscience. You just experienced something your eyes cannot explain. Comment, "My wall moved if it worked for you." This is it, the final boss. I have hidden five clues across this entire video. If you were paying close attention, you caught them all.
Let's test your memory. No rewinding, no cheating. Question one, in the mind readading trick, what number did I say most people pick? Answer: Seven.
Question two, in the physical illusion, what did I tell you to press against?
Answer, a door frame. Question three, in the emoji challenge, what was the answer? Answer, Lion King. Question four, in the reaction challenge, what was the animal in the first image?
Answer, a cat. Question five, what is the scientific name for the wall moving effect you just experienced? Answer, the motion after effect. How many did you get right? Count your score. You made it to the end of this video. That means your brain is stronger than 97% of people who clicked on it. Yep, you heard it right. Now, here's what I need you to do. Comment your level score below. Tell me how many memory questions you got right out of five. And tell me which level was hardest for you. Was it the floating arms, the optical illusion, or the no smiling challenge? If you want more brain challenges like this, subscribe because next time the impossible level gets even harder.
