Me: How many fingers am I holding up? Vsauce: You might say, well, I know where my fingers are. I'm looking right at them. Or, I can touch them, I can feel them, they're right here and that's good. Your senses are a great way to learn things. In fact, we have way more than the usual five senses we talk about. For instance, your kinesthetic sense, proprioception. This is what the police evaluate during a field sobriety test. It allows you to tell where your fingers and arms and head and legs in your body is all in relation to each other without having to look or touch other things. We have way more than five senses, we have at least twice as many and then some. But they're not perfect. There are optical illusions, audio illusions, temperature sensation illusions, even tactile illusions. Can you turn your tongue upside down? If so, perfect. Try this. Run your finger along the outer edge of the tip of your upside down tongue. Your tongue will be able to feel your finger, but in the wrong place. Our brains never needed to develop an understanding of upside down tongue touch. So, when you touch the right side of your tongue when it's flipped over to your left side you perceive a sensation on the opposite side, where your tongue usually is but isn't when it's upside down. It's pretty freaky and cool and a little humbling, because it shows the limits of the accuracy of our senses, the only tools we have to get what's out there in here. The philosophy of knowledge, the study of knowing, is called epistemology. Plato famously said that the things we know are things that are true, that we believe and that we have justification for believing. those justifications might be irrational or they might be rational, they might be based on proof, but don't get too confident because proven is not a synonym for true. Luckily, there are things that we can know without needing proof, without needing to even leave the house, things that we can know as true by reason alone. These are things that we know a priori. An example would be the statement "all bachelors are unmarried." I don't have to go survey every bachelor on earth to know that that is true. All bachelors are unmarried because that's how we define the word bachelor. Of course, you have to know what the words bachelor and unmarried mean in the first place. Oh, you do? Okay. Perfect. That's great. But how do you know? This time I mean functionally, how do you know? Where is knowledge biologically in the brain? What are memories made out of? We are a long way from being able to answer that question completely but research has shown that memories don't exist in the brain in single locations. Instead, what we call a memory is likely made up of many different complex relationships all over the brain between lots of brain cells, neurons. A major cellular mechanism thought to underlie the formation of memories is long-term potentiation or LTP. When one neuron stimulates another neuron repeatedly that signal can be enhanced overtime LTP, wiring them more strongly together and that connection can last a long time, even an entire lifetime. A collection of different brain cells, neurons that fire together in a particular order over and over again frequently and repeatedly can achieve long-term potentiation, becoming more sensitive to each other and more ready to fire in the exact same way later on in the future. They're a physical thing in your brain, firing together more easily because you strengthen that pattern of firing. You memorized. This branching forest of firing friends looks messy, but look closer. It could be the memory of your first kiss. A living souvenir of the event. If I were to go into your brain and cut out those cells, could I make you forget your first kiss or could I make you forget where your fingers are? Only if I cut out a lot of your brain. Because memories aren't just stored in one relationship, they're stored all over the brain. The events leading up to your first kiss are stored in one network, the way it felt to the way it smelled in different networks, all added up together making what you call the memory of your first kiss. How many memories can you fit inside your head? What is the storage capacity of the human brain? The best we can do is a rough estimate, but given the number of neurons in the brain involved with memory and the number of different connections a single neuron can make Paul Reber at Northwestern University estimated that we can store the digital equivalent of about 2.5 petabytes of information. That's the equivalent of recording a TV channel continuously for 300 years. That's a lot of information. That is a lot of information about skills you can do and facts and people you've met, things in the real world. The world is real, right? How do you know? It's a difficult question, but it's not rocket science. Instead, it is asking whether or not rocket scientists even exist in the first place. The theory that the Sun moved around the earth worked great. It predicted that the Sun would rise every morning and it did. It wasn't until later that we realized what we thought was true might not be. So, do we or will we ever know true reality or are we stuck in a world where the best we can do is be approximately true? Discovering more and more useful theories every day but never actually reaching true objective actual reality. Can science or reason ever prove convincingly that your friends and KZfaq videos and your fingers actually exist beyond your mind? That you don't just live in the matrix? No. Your mind is all that you have, even if you use instruments, like a telescope or particle accelerators. The final stop for all of that information is ultimately you. You are alone in your own brain, which technically makes it impossible to prove that anything else exists. It's called the egocentric predicament. Everything you know about the world out there depends on and is created inside your brain. This mattered so much to Charles Sanders Peirce that he drew a line between reality, the way the universe truly is, and what he called the phaneron, the world as filtered through our senses and bodies, the only information we can get. If you want to speak with certainty you live in, that is you react to and remember and experience your phaneron, not reality. The belief that only you exist and everything else, food, the universe, your friends are all figments of your mind is called solipsism. There is no way to convince a solipsist that the outside world is real. And there is no way to convince someone who doubts that the universe wasn't created just three seconds ago along with all of our memories. It's a frightening realization that we don't always know how to deal with. There's even The Matrix defense. In 2002 Tonda Lynn Ansley shot and killed her landlady. She argued that she believed she was in the matrix, that her crimes weren't real. By using the matrix defense, she was found not guilty by reason of insanity, because the opposite view is just way healthier and common. It's called realism. Realism is the belief that the outside world exists independently of your own phaneron. Rocks and stars and Thora Birch would continue to exist even if you weren't around to experience them. But you cannot know realism is true. All you can do is believe. Martin Gardner, a great source for math magic tricks, explained that he is not a solipsist because realism is just way more convenient and healthy and it works. As to whether it bothered him that he could never know realism was true, he wrote, "If you ask me to tell you anything about the nature of what lies beyond the phaneron, my answer is how should I know? I'm not dismayed by ultimate mysteries, I can no more grasp what is behind such questions as my cat can understand what is behind the clatter I make while I type this paragraph." Humble stuff. What strikes me is the cat. Cats do not understand keyboards, but they know the keyboards are a fun place to be. It's a great way to get the attention of a human, they're warm and exciting, surrounded by noises and flashing lights plus cats love to get their scent on whatever they can, a mark of their existence. We aren't that much different, except instead of keyboards we have the mysteries of the universe. We will never be able to understand all of them.

Hey, Vsauce. Michael here. If you threw every single human alive today into the Grand Canyon, 0:07 we would not fill it up. 0:11 We could make a pile about this big 0:15 That's it. That's all of us. All 7.159 billion of us 0:20 in one place. A species 0:24 portrait. It kinda puts humanity into perspective 0:27 and you. So does this. Everyday you produce about one to two litres 0:32 of spit, which means, in your entire lifetime 0:36 altogether, you will not produce enough spit 0:40 to fill an Olympic-size swimming pool. 0:44 So far, 560 billion Lego parts 0:48 have been manufactured and the total number of grains 0:51 of sand on Earth is estimated to be 7.5 times 10 0:56 to the 18th. But here's the thing: 1:00 how many things are there... total? 1:06 Well, how do you define a thing? Well, let's say it's a thing 1:10 if you can think about it or talk about it. If you can call it a thing, 1:14 it's a thing. This is going to be a lot of things. 1:18 Things can be real, imaginary, 1:21 impossible, ideas are things, things can be looked forward to and things can be in the past 1:27 or yellow or concrete or abstract things can 1:31 happen and some thing's probably won't. 1:34 Making a video about how many things there are. 1:38 That's a thing... that I'm doing right now. 1:41 Let's count everything. 1:44 Right away, the answer seems obvious. The word 1:47 'thing' is so vague, the answer is clearly infinite... 1:52 possibly... not. 1:55 All we have to do is take the maximum number of physical things, 1:59 things out there in the real world, beyond our minds we could 2:02 in theory measure and add to that the total number of things we 2:07 could imagine. The total number of thoughts possible. 2:11 For the purposes of this video let's assume that numbers and math 2:15 and the laws of physics exist as part of the way 2:18 our universe is. But the names and representations they've been given 2:23 are the products of thinking minds and those things 2:27 are, well, things that we can count. 2:30 And there's no reason to double count. All of the indivisible 2:34 pieces that make up me, particles or strings or whatever 2:38 are the same as the thing that has been named me. 2:42 Abraham Lincoln has a great quote about this. 2:45 "How many legs does a sheep have if you call 2:48 its tail a leg?" 2:51 Four. 2:52 Because calling a tail a leg doesn't make it one. 2:55 Okay, let's begin. When counting the number of 2:59 physical things in the universe we hit an unknown. 3:03 How big is the universe? 3:06 The entire universe could be infinite 3:09 or it could be finite, but edgeless for a variety of reasons. There could also be 3:13 other universes. But it's unclear whether we'll ever be able to actually see all these 3:19 things. Instead, what we are stuck with, and what we usually mean when we say 3:24 'the universe', is the observable universe 3:28 whose future visibility limit has been estimated to be only 62 3:32 billion light-years in any direction. 3:36 That's it. This is likely the only inventoryable space we'll ever need 3:42 to worry about. And it contains roughly, 3:45 on average, ten to the eighty elementary particles. Particles with no 3:49 further internal parts as far as we currently now. 3:52 So that's our answer, right? There are ten to the eighty 3:56 physical things that exist out there, beyond our own minds. 3:59 Any other physical thing - water, dogs, planets, 4:03 saxophones - are just names given to particular arrangements of those same 4:08 ten to the eighty particles. But wait, what if, 4:11 in the future, we discover that what we call elementary particles today 4:16 are actually just made out of smaller things we should have counted 4:19 instead? Well, to cover ourselves let's count 4:23 the maximum possible number of the smallest measurable thing. 4:28 Something the size of a Planck volume. 4:31 10 to the power of 183 4:34 things that small could fit within our observable universe. 4:38 I like this number, 10 to the power of 183. 4:44 You couldn't easily argue there were more things than that 4:47 in the physical, real-world. But you could imagine. 4:51 A Planck length, a Planck volume. That's just 4:54 the smallest measurable amount of space, not the smallest 4:58 possible. You could imagine a 5:02 half Planck volume, a 10,000th of a Planck volume. 5:05 But, that would just be a thought and only ever 5:09 a thought. So, how many possible thoughts 5:12 are there? It's probably safe to say that the number of possible 5:17 thoughts is, indeed, infinite. For example, 5:20 numbers. You can't say there's a limit to the biggest number we can imagine. 5:24 But, unlike physical things that exist whether or not we have 5:29 discovered them, do unthought thoughts 5:32 already exist? It seems more like the pool of possible 5:38 thoughts is really just one thing an actual elements from that set don't 5:43 become things by themselves until we thing them 5:47 that is we or some other mind thinks about them 5:50 or talks about them and there's a limit to how many things 5:53 we or anything else could ever thing 5:57 our observable universe is only so big and it will contain usable energy 6:01 for only so long. After about 1 trillion to a hundred trillion years 6:07 the supply of gas needed to form new stars will be 6:11 exhausted and the lights will start going out 6:14 one-star at a time. After a 6:17 Google years the amount of usable energy left in the universe will be 6:22 0 and nothing will be able to happen 6:27 to calculate the maximum number up thoughts that could be 6:30 thought inside our observable universe let's take 6:33 all of its mass and turn it into human brains 6:37 that just think new and random thoughts from the beginning of time 6:41 until the universe runs out of usable energy, a Google years 6:44 of thinking. But wait, what if there are 6:48 alien brains or for all we know Earthling brains that 6:51 think faster than we can okay well to be safe 6:54 let's not turn all of that mass into human brains let's use it to build a 6:58 giant hypothetical machine that computes at the fastest speed possible given the 7:03 speed of light 7:04 in the uncertainty principle; Bremermann's Limit 7:07 its 1.36 times ten to the fifty bits per second per kilogram 7:12 of material, now a high-end estimate for the total mass of the observable universe 7:17 is 3.4 times ten to the the 60 kilograms 7:21 which used exclusively for the best possible computing machine could altogether process 4.624 times ten to the 110 7:30 bits per second. Now with 3.154 times 10 to the 116 7:36 seconds available from the beginning of time to the heat death of the universe 7:40 and an assumption that the average thought takes about a sentance worth 7:44 of information to describe 7:45 say about 800 bits we get a total 7:49 of 1.458 times 7:52 ten to the 227 things that could 7:55 ever be thought or imagined. That number 7:59 is huge. In the observable universe 8:04 the universe as we will ever know it the number of thoughts that can be thought 8:08 is so much larger than the number of physical things there can be with out 8:12 imagination and if you were to combine the two totals 8:16 the number of physical things would barely 8:19 make a difference. So, funny enough 8:23 when it comes to every thing in the universe 8:26 it really is the thought that counts. 8:29 And as always, 8:31 thanks for watching. 7:26

Im not sure, but I believe he once explained it is because when you're youn you experience more 'first experiences' which you remember. The older you get, the fewer 'first experiences' and thus the fewer memorable moments. The less we remember, the shorter life seems.
