Can Humans Sense Magnetic Fields? 

Most likely, it's research facilities call Veritassium (along with vsauce and smartereveryday, via secret mailing list) and like "hey, we have cool stuff to share".

@@qwiglydee I very much doubt it. But, that is WAY more entertaining than what really happens. So that's what I'm going to tell everyone.

@@SlimThrull well, at least that's how things go with other "youtube influencers" on sponsorship/merch basis :-)

Maxim Vasiliev wishful thinking. they probably reach out when discovering new research or get a video idea

Probably a large part hidden from us viewers is the amount of research papers and articles these channels or their research teams dig into every day just to present us with 'high quality' esteemed content.

Lamar, you have a beautiful profile picture.

Beat me by 4 hours

I believe the scientific term is: "Added benefit!"

I hope that they can find an outlier. A human that can really sense magnetosphere and still have that ability retained from ancestors

"You don't need a cap for that" would have been the proper answer.

Ik exactly what you mean, a lot of people need other measures to properly undergo one 😮

That's not surprising, a lot of the activity that goes on in the brain involves charged particles moving around. As they move, they themselves generate tiny magnetic fields that can interact with other magnetic fields.

Glad to know I'm not the only one!

I just got unpleasantly nauseous, and that was before the contrast.

Glad to know im not the only one/ im nit hallucinating. I can feel slight pressure sensations on my skin when in the MRI even when forcefully held in place by a cushion.

Nice, I like your part about the stereos and the shielding. I had some cheap speakers that I would click or tick when an sms was coming (about 10 years ago). I fully believe in your story.

There are lots of people who could do this. However I think it has to do with the high frequency audio noise caused by electronic drives at that time. I could hear when electronic equipment was switched on even when most others couldn’t.

@@randomrandomizer That should be easy to test. The same thing is thinking of someone who rings afterwards.

"some are suffering with so many symptoms without knowing the root cause." Yes, the quacks known as psychiatrists have given me C-PTSD and damaged me beyond repair. I've had four TBI's. The first when I was 4-5 and the second when I was 8, almost 9, and which nearly killed me and put me in a coma for two weeks. In fact, I was pronounced DOA. I can feel the energy of some women both up close and from a distance, even across the internet, and seems to have something to do with their having been in a coma, having had a OOB, or having had a NDE. When I met Kimberly Clark-Sharp years ago, her energy had that effect on me every time she passed by, and when we hugged, she kept remarking on my energy. Afterward, while I was in an empty room waiting for my ride, the room seemed to fill with a white fog, which was part of what she described during her NDE. If you don't know who she is, look her up. Last I knew, she ran the Seattle IANDS meetings, which is where I met her.

You'd be amazed how much sticky tape physics labs go through

At Caltech no less

it's really not that high tech at all. eeg has been around for a century and Helmholtz coils another half century before that.

That's how science is done. Million dollar instrumentation, but no toilet paper in the restrooms because "budget"

There is nothing high tech about this study, anybody can easily make a magnetic field, all you need is metal coils rotating and current. And really this looks a bit too pseudo scientific for my taste : there are no numbers or averages to see if the effect better than random chance. And the worst part is they will say averages don't work as humans have different "potentials" (like their "gifted" individual). All I can see is that the data from Derek doesn't look better than random chance, and their other exemple was hand picked and not different from what you could get from someone randomly focusing their attention with even an average study group. Not convinced.

perfectly balanced. as all things should be.

I think that design is older than the 1970s. If you look at visible architecture in the video, the structure is clearly old, and this chair might simply have been present in the building. Alternately it may well be assembled without any fasteners, just tongue-and-groove with wood glue. That might be preferential for a magnetic field test.

The tech present here existed in the 1970's

@@TWX1138 exactly my train of thought. It is not easy finding a piece of furniture with out it changing the field

It's radiation sickness (just like exposure to radium). The higher in frequency and the greater the field strength, the more intense. I first felt it when a tech on 10 m, but most intensely at a tower site where a cellular antenna was leaking RF. My eyes watered, and I got sick to my stomach - classic signs of radiation exposure - until I got out of and away from that building. I don't know of many people aware of it when it happens, but I'm one.

I'm not sure it's the same kind of perception showed in the video. I think your feeling is related to the power involved.

Nah you just microwaved yourself lol

i think the blue screen depends also with your strong site of the brain (if you are left or right handed) thats because your brain is blue screen CW and no in CCW...it could be :)

@Mike Oxlong dude... this is exactly how science works lol.

@Mike Oxlong , why shouldn't it be funded?

They should definitely try this on blind people, because they maneuver around partly by memorizing their surroundings and maybe relating it to magnetic fields? Animals should be tested as well. 😅

I would be interested to hear how the control group would have reacted, where subjects undergo the same setup without actually recieving any electromagnetic stimulus.

Dellluminati, did you listen to the dudes story?

Jesus that guy can roll man

Where's the magnetic field, Libowski!?!?

It's-a, it's down there in that gravity well, lemme just take another look.

The chair was purchased at the OSH hardware store in Pasadena. We then replaced all the ferromagnetic metal parts (screws, nuts, bolts, etc.) in the chair with nonmagnetic brass parts. I blame the floral pattern on the chair cushions on Joe. However, the chair is quite comfortable.

I find it interesting that yesterday I was watching videos on perfect pitch and now today I have watched a video on magnetic sensing and you have both in your family.

@@mikemondano3624 I think what JP is hypothesizing is: might it be stronger, which could be in line with other senses also being stronger for those born blind. Not "do they have it at all" but "to what degree is there a difference, if any" So, no, not necessarily the same.. though of course, if it's looked into, maybe it is.

@@iisgray Senses are exactly the same in the blind (born or otherwise). The storied increased acuity is a myth. Those who can't see simply use their other senses more and become more discerning in their use with the practice that comes with that use.

Replace the second use of the word "stronger" with "more attuned." Happy? Coming from a pedant: you're obviously just being pedantic, his/her idea doesn't deserve the condescension you gave it, calm down, and try not to be a dick.

@@mikemondano3624 Increased acuity is not a myth, it's been researched and shown to exist in various cases of sensory-disabled humans. You're not born with a better hearing because you're blind, but as you grow older, your hearing acuity gets much more develloped and much faster compared to a non-sensory impaired human. Having worked with blind and poly-disabled (blind+any other condiditon) i can tell you with certainty that they get to a fully develloped and very precise hearing about 3 times faster than any other kids, and keep developping it for much longer. Their sonic spatial awareness is beyond impressive compared to adults or normal kids, and they also easily measure the distances the sounds are coming from, are often talk about what sound has hit on its way to their ears. We ran a test once dropping random curtains along a long corridor at different moments, and play music at the far end of the corridor. all kids (aged 3->19) were tested one by one, and all of them could tell us if a curtain was present, how far it was down the corridor, with 80% accuracy. Remember, none of them could see. All adults present that day tried the test and none of us could really hear a difference, even one with perfect ear and trained as a musician. They explained to us they didnt really hear the curtains, but "felt" less reverberation coming from the adjacent windows along the corridor, and thus could deduce where the sound was dampened. More training = better acuity, you say it yourself, why do you say it's not real and then contradict yourself ? It would be very interesting to see this experiment done on them. We got blind kids going to normal Judo classes and we all had to admit that the vision has barely any role in balance and other vestibular/brain functions, they adapt to the lack of it naturally and never need visual points of references to "stand" or lean with balance. It's impressive to see in a fight, and some judo members tried to fight them blindfolded "for fairness and curiosity" with very mixed results. Most fell twice as easily while blindfolded, just because they didnt have time to adapt to the lacking sense. A full life of adaptation and mastery of different senses makes your brain wiring and function very different than someone else, even if the "hardware" is the same. lay off the attitude and admit it would be interesting, even only to prove that more discerning humans dont necesarily have a more powerfull "compass-response".

"On some occasions". Ie it works when it works. It stands to reason that you generally know where home is if you can observe celestial bodies or have landmarks or roughly remember your movements.

Given our evolution has resulted in behavior differences between the sexes perhaps women, who generally existed in familiar surrounding, shed the ability while men, who travelled farther afield retained it?

@@bryn494 Evolutionary pressure, if the capability did exist, would certainly be in that direction.

@@MrCmon113 Well it's more than that. It certainly doesn't 'stand to reason' if you're in a confusing environment such as a forest or a town, and on a dull day, when you can't see the sun/moon/stars or whatever. (If I have a better guide, I don't bother thinking about my intuition.) Without going into the stats, what I meant was, "more often right than by random chance". If you want to understand it, I'd recommend Robin Baker's original paper, and the book on circular statistics by Edward Batschelet, then we might be able to have a meaningful debate.

It makes sense!! I remember I did the same at school and I could always point North. However I can't do that anymore :(

I mean no disrespect with the following comment; merely counterpoint and corroboration. Those of us who *_do_* have the ability to inherently know direction can’t even comprehend what it would be like to *_not_* have the ability. It is as natural and as easy for us as breathing, seeing, or hearing. I've had it since...well...forever; even as a young child I had an unerring sense of direction that predated being educated on cardinal directions, map reading, and the use of a compass. I can't get lost or turned around; believe me, people have tried. I just assumed everyone had this ability. It's only as I grew into adulthood that I came to realize that not everyone has it. None of this is to be construed as claiming the existence of a sixth sensitivity to magnetic fields. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. It could be multi-sensorial relying on sight, sound, kinesthesia, orientation awareness, and perhaps even a magneto sensitivity; more research is required. Perhaps the mechanism is different for different people. In my case I largely attribute it to having near-photographic recall of the spaces through which I pass. Without conscious effort, I'm constantly aware of and updating a three-dimensional map of my surroundings in my head. Combined with an understanding of cardinal direction and environmental cues, I always know where I've come from and how to plot a route back to that starting point; even after hiking miles away without bothering to use a map or compass. Outside of needing to pinpoint a specific location within a few meters accuracy in a wilderness I've never visited before, I have no need of them. Regardless of the mechanics of _how_ the sense works, it _does_ work. I would consider the loss of that sense as devastating as losing my hearing; that's how intrinsic and essential I consider it.

News flash, your husband looks at the sun, I use to pull the finger trick on girls and surprise them how long before the sun goes down lol

The experiments of Dr. Robin Baker of Manchester University suggest that humans are also sensitive to changes in Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Robin Baker first placed people inside a darkened room and asked them to locate North. Most of the time people got it right. But when Baker then fitted these same subjects with a little magnetic skullcap, they lost their ability to find North. This strongly suggests the presence of an internal compass or biological clock. Scientists have discovered Magnetic particles in Cerebellum.

Maybe you take subtle cues from the shape of the earth. North is still north no matter where you are so it can't be a magnetic field issue.

i was wondering the same

Good question. Since I seem to have a fairly intuitive sense of where I am (and rarely get lost), it would be wonderful to find out if that's why.

That would be great to know. Until now I just though I had a very good photografic memory.

@@wranglerboi Likewise, although I've always put my sense of direction down to being aware of and navigating by the position of the sun or moon/stars.

@@wranglerboi I've read that direction sense is related to iron particles that build up in specific areas of the body, so spending a long time in the same geodetic orientation would make them always line up the same way. For 13 years as a kid, I always slept in the same position, facing the same way, and my direction sense was very good. Do you have a set sleeping direction?

It's a metaphor for EA Games.

Ea

Nah some people just have a higher spatial awareness.

no, if you move around a city or a forest you don't need to know the magnetic field at all. it's just good awareness in general

tell that to roronoa zorro from one piece franchise Hahaha

This wouldn't explain why some people have a great sense of direction in virtual environments.

@Jake Watson thats not sociopathic behavior at all 😒

There was also a guy who got stabbed in the neck and didn't realize until he got home tho

The ear senses a differential pressure. It can be sensed whatever the atmospheric pressure is. It is totally unrelated. It is not like the ear was sensing the absolute pressure and could sense tiny variations in that pressure. It just doesn't sense the atmospheric pressure at all, because it is designed so that the pressures are balanced in both sides. It senses only changes. Just like measuring a curent through a capacitor will measure only the AC component of the current and not the DC part. This has nothing to do with sensitivity.

@@Submersed24 Well there's also something in our bodies that suppresses our ability to feel pain for a few hours

@@Submersed24 I love this bloody one-liner riposte :D

Except magnetic fields arent sensed my our ears. Also cuz one sense is sensitive doesnt mean others are. Its all just relative tho, 0.0000002 percent of change in the atmosphere might be a LOT compared to what other species can hear, and just cuz the number is really low doesnt mean that its value is, relative to other

for sure, It's one of the questions I had watching the video.

The brain reacted, cool alright but did he "sense" it? He didn't seem to. Fair enough if this is answered in the paper but I clicked on the video for the answer to the question it posed and maybe I just missed it.

Not really but ok

It interested me too. It’s common that people who learn a language as an adult can’t erase their “accent” fully. They can make conscious efforts, but maybe just like some people are bad at math, some people are bad at accents.

i dont really have much of an accent in day to day conversation but when im nervous i have an accent

@@Dragrath1 Not all studies require a control

@@iisgray Especially with studies that some people will try to use as support for their esoteric believes like electrosensitivty, its important to have a control group. Its always good to have a control group to be sure that you dont artificially create wanted results. Its not a study if you tell people "Do you feel the magnetic field i created" and people say "yes". Especially if people WANT to feel that. Bunch of studies with people claiming to be electrosensitve have been debunked through control groups

@@marschma Sure, I'm not saying control groups are dumb or something, but it's a fact that not all studies require them, in fact, not all studies can possibly support them. Like.. y'know, does left handedness vs right handedness effect which direction of magnetic change someone notices? Like, it's impossible to have a control for that. Does eating a certain food make someone healthier? The "control" would be not feeding someone, and that's unethical. My statement was, "Not all studies require a control" nothing more, nothing less.

The hypothesis of the paper was that the sensitivity would reverse in the southern hemisphere (the theory was that the brain rejected and ignored fields that it knew couldn't align with the Earth's magnetic field), but the experiment was ran in the northern hemisphere and they weren't able to test it in their experiment.

Yeah but when you see that ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0Rnq1NpHdmw.html (the whole episode worth it, I have just selected the "fart" bit), you also understand that people are not necessarily 100% responsible for their weird beliefs...

I mean a good scientist wouldn't ignore anything. For one, the watts involved in this facility. For two, the difference between an electric current generating a magnetic field, and an electromagnetic wave like radar -> gamma rays, These waves also produce Magnetic fields. That's not pseudo science, my friend. It's awesome science. It's the reason why we could both watch this video in the 1st place

You my friend have an awesome thinking

@@sunilkumar-bc5dz Thank you good sir, you sure sound like an awesome pal.

lol, writing nature as a proper noun just makes me imagine a panel of reviewers for the journal Nature reading the paper for this experiment and laughing.

To be fair, it depends on the definition of "knowledge": Animals that use it practically obviously "realize" the effect... if they didn't notice anything, they couldn't use it, after all. But if you mean a conceptual understanding of where that effect comes from, and why it exists (in other words: "science"), then yeah: we're the only ones "knowing" about it. But the same goes for anything else. See, science ruins everything - even poetry :-)

I can feel the difference between N and S poles of a small neodymium magnet.

whould be very interresting if so

That would be interesting. Perhaps it's a way to get a binary signal, like a way to count the turns one took to get to where you are on a winding path. This would make returning the way you came easier, for example.

That would be "East-" or "West-" handed, thank you.

or perhaps have something to do with tendency of one's decision, when someone need to turn left or right when they encounter a branching path.

No

That's funny that's all I noticed and still sounding professional

No need to think of scientists as lofty. They're merely folks who are xtra curious about something and love to examine and learn more to try and understand the thing. To do that they get educated, and my use strange terms and words, but they use that as a tool for their exploration not so as they can feel superior to any other folks. They're as happy as anyone to do odd things to get the exploration or experiment done.😉

@@myspacetimesaucegoog5632 Normally scientists instinctively look down on the general public because of their high "knowledge"

@@cryingwater Everyone is as scientist if you simply ask, "Why?"

@@cryingwater Thats a pretty presumptuous assumption in fact most scientists are humble because they feel stupid since there is so many unanswered questions about the world they can't figure out for the life of them !

Yeah air pressure changes cause headaches for some people

post us some links to check it out

@@soheil527 He never could find the links...and eventually got lost.

Do you just wander into research facilities at universities and go, "yoooooo, wassup, what've y'all got for me today"?

There was also an experiment several years ago where a group of people wore these devices for a few weeks, I think it was a belt(?), with little buzzers on it, and it would faintly buzz in whichever direction was pointed north. So they had this constant indicator of which way they were facing, which they internalized, and developed this better sense of direction, but then they all got super disoriented once the experiment ended and they took off the devices. lol

@@FectacularSpail you might think of the FeelSpace belt. It was a project at the University of Osnabrück and is now a startup I think. They did some experiments on whether it is possible to learn where North is and also to use it as a navigation device.
