It's all fun and games untill he withdraws the fake hand to avoid the hit

imagine the guy who is doing this trick gets confused and actually slams the real hand lmao

Brain is like. "New device detected."

“Oops wrong hand” 💀

It's all fun and games until the fake hand starts moving.

Imagine if he got so used to the symmetrical motion that he just slams down on both of them

This 'mirror therapy' is also used in the treatment of Phantom Pain in amputees. Does miracles, apparently as Phantom Pain is often experienced almost daily. ❤

It's an important lesson that you're not experiencing the real world, you're experiencing your brain's version of the real world.

Everybody gangsta until the fake hand starts to move on it's own.

In the original experiment they would hit the hand with a hammer because past science was hardcore

This is often used in therapy for people who have lost limbs! Phantom Limb pain (PLP) is where someone has lost a limb but still feels-often debilitating-pain from the limb that is no longer there. People often say things like their fist is clenched permanently, or that they have enduring/permanent cramps/tremors, and other such things. Being able to use this technique in therapy helps hands to unclench or for legs to stop "cramping" as they are "massaged", and it can be really successful for even treatment-resistant PLP.

everybody’s happy until the dude takes the wrong hand with him

Imagine he whacked the real hand instead of the fake

"Alright so i'm gonna hit the hand with a knife" "Oops sorry wrong hand"

“Bluetooth pairing successfully”

“Oops, wrong hand.”

We did this in school once, but whacked the fake hand with a hammer instead. While We were doing this a kid was centimeters away from wacking the real hand.

The focus required to not smack both their hands 😂

He's so happy to smack their hands 😂😂

It’s all fun games until hand is like: “The Bluetooth device has been connected “😂💀

The sudden panic when he crushed their fake hands is hilarious

That's just his excuse to pet people's hands, checking for his next blood donor.

Oops wrong hand The battle-axe in his hand: 👁️👄👁️

It's all fun and games till bro reveals it was a voodoo doll hand the whole entire time 💀

Brain just out here claiming stuff that doesn't belong to it

Imagine you stop touching the real one and the person still feels it

“Your fake hand” “Me: Give it back”😂💀

All fun and games until he accidentally smashes the real hand while laughing maniacally

People who have lost limbs would put a mirror against their “present” limb to help with phantom pains. So crazy how the brain works

For everybody saying this is fake, it is a real thing it happens in vr, it's called phantom touch.

“the Bluetooth device is ready to pair.”

Brain: "You cant trick me" Also brain :

*Casually caresses the hands of people* FOR SCIENCE

"pull out the hammer, pull out the hammer" *Hits hand instead* Aw..

This is when the extra abilities kick in

i was waiting for the hammer 💀

I would like to see this performed with other extremities.

Everybody's gansta until the guy chops the fake hands finger

“your bluetooth device is ready to pair” 🗣️🗣️🗣️

everyones gansgsta till the guy activates the wrong hand and hits the real hand

Experiment: *messes with brain* Brain: “Why tf is the hand loosing textures?”

thought he was gonna get out a butcher's knife and chop off a rubber finger...

Bro explained it like 3 times within one explanation somehow 😂

The lady wasn’t even looking, she just got jump scared lmao

slams both hands for more efficiency

Everybody gangsta until he accidently hits the real hand.

Everybody gangsta until the real one becomes the fake💀

“Oops wrong hand”

I was expecting him to stop stroking the real hand while still stroking the fake hand, and the person to feel as though he was still stroking his real hand.

It's all fun in games until the person starts moving the fingers of the rubber hand

Wait till the fake hand slaps you back 💀

Imagine a drunk man doing that😂

"Now crush it with an hammer"

Imagine stabbing the real hand and the fake wheeze

Imagine asking them to clap their hands and they just smash the wall 💀

I really thought he was going to pull out a hammer out of nowhere.

Knowing me I’d accidentally slam my fist down on the real hand

I was straight up waiting for him to pull out a knife and stab the fake hand 😂😂

It’s all fun and games until he rips the fake hand off.

Thumbnail had me thinking ginger jesus

"Now, lets see the limits of this effect" *pulls out two knives*

Brain: anything out of my vision is fake Arm: what about me Brain: *loading*

"Opps wrong hand"

Brain is acting like "Bluetooth is now connected to rubber hand"

Imagine the muscle memory of him touching both hands every time kicks in and he smashed both real and fake hands

I've done this at a brain expo and the weird part is not when they hit it. Its when you look at the rubber hand and move your real hand. In your head the rubber hand will move slightly before confusion sets in when the hand never moves. Trippy

Modern Rogue also pointed out how having the rubber hand in your peripheral vision makes the illusion happen much quicker and much more effective. And then they took an axe to the rubber hand lol.

obv ppl get shocked because they think that the person would do it to their other hand too 😭

They do this to help ease phantom limb pain. Very cool

If brain starts thinking that fake hand is real then he should try quietly hitting the real hand to see if brain reacts the same

"Oops, wrong hand" 💀💀

Until fake hand pops into life.

people's reactions are much better whenever you pull out the hammer

These are the types of things I wish I could participate in

When his right hand follows the left😅

I saw this experiment, only someone took a sledgehammer out of under the table. 😂

"My brain thinks why my hand looks so weird" -Brain

He hits both hand at the last

I’d probably hit the wrong hand 💀

Nobody: Brain - the Bluetooth device is ready to pair

This is used to "treat" the phantom limb itch. When an amputee's missing limb is itchy they can't scratch it so this often helps.

This could be a good excuse to just caress someone's hand

Brain: The Bluetooth device is ready to pair.

Brain is like "Bluetooth connected"

-sinister ending be like *Stabs hand with knife

this video is utterly morbid, the sheer audacity of the man to display mannequin abuse for the whole world to see.

Instructions unclear. Now I have a broken hand. 😢

Your brain: Your blue-tooth device connected

Imagine, what would have happen if u smaked that fake hand with an axe ,the yelling reaction would be insane

I was just like "ayee.. when's he gonna smash that fake hand?" And then suddenly 💥

It’s all fun and games until you hear a voice say in your head, “your Bluetooth device is connected”.

The last one: GYAAAAAH

One of our science teachers back in high school showed us this experiment and then asked us if we wanted to try it. When I showed no reaction the other kids in class were confused why it didn't work on me. Our teacher then pointed out that if course it wouldn't work on me, it was a hand like the one in the video and I was the only black kid in my class, so it's much harder to induce the sympathy response as my brain won't recognize it as my hand.

For people who use any given tool long enough, during that session, the tool becomes like an extension of your body and your mind adapts to account for its placement in space when moving. Those little clamps for picking stuff off ground or off high shelves would be an example

"Oooops i punched your real hand"💀

The fact you almost hurt the actual hand tho- lol-

I was waiting for him to like stab the fake hand with a knife, would have been way better than just pounding it

Left hand: “you already know that’s fake so I know you won’t feel it too” Brain: *are you sure about that*

"your bluetooth device is ready to pair" ahh hand

The guy was looking so amazed, then suddenly BAM!
