Top Comments : [TED] What hallucination reveals about our minds | Oliver Sacks

ch************:

You are missed but not forgotten. Thank you for everything, Oliver, especially your compassion.

Ma*******:

I wish I could talk about “any” subject as well as this guy. I can type my thoughts better than I can speak and I’m extremely artistic. Everyone has their gifts. Don’t look down on yourself.

Vi******:

Somewhere, Joe "DMT get's produced in the pineal gland" Rogan climaxes while listening to this.

Mi***********:

Human mind is a frequency antenna and receiver, the cells he speaks of tune into those frequencies and then represent them as images to you

RM**:

The human brain continues to amaze me. I got hit by a car a few months ago, resulting in a traumatic brain injury. Ever since, I've been vividly dreaming about certain childhood memories I had forgotten, mostly unpleasant ones. This never happened before the accident, so it seems something was triggered in my brains. I have no evidence or knowledge to support this though, it's just my experience, but I do wonder if others experienced something similar.

Ka***:

I wish I had found this mans amazing work before his death. Currently listening to,any of his books I can get in audio book. His own biography is fantastic.

Ca************:

I also had a cartoon (Kermit from Sesame Street) hallucination when I was a kid. He was animated in my pillow cover. I often think of that experience.

An***:

The old lady's pineal gland was active

De***********:

As in the words of Christopher Walken "WOW"!!!

Ma******:

Very interesting video, great stuff!
Although I think the video should be renamed to something like why 10% off blind people get hallucinations. Because he talks mostly about blind people and their hallucinations.

te*************:

If any of these people had taken acid or mushrooms in the past then they would recognise their hallucinations for what they were.

li**************:

Sacks is always such a delight. I don't understand why some people in the comments are saying that he's full of himself or doesn't know what he's talking about. There are a few things that you need to learn about science and medicine if that is what you are thinking while watching this video and that is: we don't have all of the answers, but sharing what we DO know is how we advance and inspire others in other areas to learn themselves. Not only that, but even if Sacks were to go up there and only share facts that are common knowledge in science, the fact that he is bringing awareness to a common and ignored issue (visually impaired patients being afraid to be honest about hallucinations), that is amazing in and of itself. I truly admire Sacks for his hard work as a doctor, but also his effort to make patients all over feel comfortable and to educate patients about their conditions. We need more medical professionals like him!

Je******:

So sad that he has passed away. Rest in peace Oliver sacks. May the angles be with him what a truly brilliant kind caring man and doctor.

sc*************:

DUDE IS THIS WHERE THE MYTH OF BLIND ORACLES CAME FROM??

To*****:

aha, she also had shan vision. yea i find that weird myself too sometimes. :-)

Gl************:

"The mind is handier than the foot." - Albert Einstein

Au************:

I find dreaming to be fascinating as your eyes are closed and yet i cannot tell the difference between being awake or asleep.

I wish to be able to achieve that kind of state sober and awake. However my mind decides to ramp up ten fold when i attempt to meditate.

Br*****:

"The theater of the mind is created by the machinery of the brain." beautiful.

Jo*******:

when i go to sleep i close my eyes and look into the blackness and wait and soon images appear and change and its the last thing i remember and i am asleep. fun to do.

Ro***:

Thug Life points for giving a TED talk in an easy chair.

An*******:

Sounds as if our brains are preprogrammed to accept certain reality and reject other. As if our brains are like computer programs that can glitch when the hardware is malfunctioning.

Ge**************:

I read this guys book called musicophillia. he's a genius

Xa*******:

This is how ghosts must have been invented when people didn't know what hallucinations were

PR**************:

"I'm aware of alotta things ,
But not really sure about any of them."
- Jim Morrison

Da********:

I've been a seer since I'm five years old. Now what I'm hearing is everything I've seen even till this day is because I'm nuts? Ugh

al***:

R.I.P Oliver Sacks

Sa*********:

It's awesome how youtube recomend me this video, when I nearly finished his book "The man who mistook his wife for a hat" - it's an amazing work!

Re**********:

"I don't know Kermit the frog, I don't watch sesame street."

CC********:

"I was afraid you might ask that... I did a lot of drugs in college."

lol

Fe**********:

Why Kermit The Frog?
Because of memes

Pr*******:

He is so chill. Looks like he's telling bed stories to his grand children.

Ze**************:

I'd rank this as one of the top 5 TED Talks I've seen over the years. Really interesting.

Ch********:

Wtf this was released in 2009 why am I seeing 10 years later

Is***:

This man is such a well-spoken, gentle and amazing fucking hero

Cr*********:

Im one of the temporal lobe epileptics. And i can concur, it gets unexplainably crazy. I am so glad i just found this video - i wasnt even searching for hallucinations lol!

I am meeting with a close friend that has been in the medical field for 28 years now this saturday to start discussing the documentation of my condition. Just like he said, its for the other doctors and medical field to learn more about the specific condition i have so we can help everyone in my position better their health. I am fully on board to document my experiences in order to gain furthur knowledge for the population.
