Superhuman intelligence through magnetic stimulation

[LeoM10CR7]

who nows whats the name of the movie where the guy on the front picture of ur video.

[jamesrcollier]

I was actually really intrigued by this technology. But if it would make me look as ridiculous as this guy, count me out. Also, this presentation is terribly unscientific. It's not double-blind, it's not even SINGLE blind. The researcher even blatantly influences - even COACHES - the outcome of the experiments in the video! And where is the placebo control? (And what kind of placebo could produce give similar side effects?)

[jamesrcollier]

What. The. Hell. I cannot take this seriously with a middle-aged white hip-hop wanna-be. Next.

did anyone ever think that he is wearing the hat because he is hiding something?

[Abramisen]

That hat... Why?

[iamkylerr]

...the hat -_-

[144hatsoff]

anyone experimented tms over the pineal area? what would happen?

[timi0000]

I wonder if that scientist's brain could be magnetically stimulated so that he stopped dressing like a 10 year old and wearing that hat

[MonacoBlast]

In defense of the Dr., he is not aware that he is wearing that hat.

[alex510347]

Is the hat supposed to make him look hip?

[13omberboy]

the order of the study affects the results.

The subject gets practice in all three tests before the magnetic pulse is used. If he switches it he may have different results. I'd like to look at his research methods...

@13omberboy

There has to be a benchmark in which to base any improvement on, otherwise the experiment would be pointless.

Besides, I really don't think practicing once accounts for the level of improvement shown here... amazing stuff.

This is an excerpt from some show, can't quite remember the name

[Mahoivlich]

Wow!

[GoneApostate]

It may be a silly reason, but I think I would have a hard time letting that dude, in that hat put anything on my noggin...

[enormousforce]

@GoneApostate at this point, only 10 out of 4776 ppl agree.

and yes, it is a silly reason.
