Mind Games

There are many ways your brain interprets the world around you. Your brain is wired to sometimes misinterpret information. In this video, Brain Games host Jason Silva shows how your brain can make colour appear out of nowhere.


Most people think that they have average common sense. In fact, you common sense may sometimes be actually providing you with the wrong answers.  In the next video, Comedian Ben Bailey is going to test your common sense.


We tend to become so focused on the world around us that we lose track of our perception of time. You might be sitting in front of the computer reading this article and not know how much time has passed since you started reading. Illusionist Apollo Robbins show you in the next video how your perception of time might seem slower in certain situations and also how you can make money off your friends by messing with their perception of time.


When we are put in frightening situations, we begin to experience different fear related emotion. The most powerful of them all is dread. In this video, illusionist Apollo Robbins and Jason Silva put the feeling of dread to the test in a game of Russian roulette, with a broken beer bottle.
