I was just thinking - this helps explain why ancient societies believed so much in things like voodoo, magic, or medical treatments that we know from modern experiments are barely effective. As long as they believed it was going to work, it sometimes would, which then proved to others in their society that it did work. This is a kind of self-reinforcing cycle for belief in things that aren't actually very effective.

Already suspicious because most likely the hypersound would most likely not reach my ear anyway: It could get filtered out when youtube encoding the video file, it could be not produced by the audio output of computer, and the headphones might not be able to make to make this sound. Unless the hypersound is very close to the limit of hearing.

So... listening to this, I think I may have identified a nocebo effect taking place when I was in junior school, at about 9 years old. A bunch of people apparently got scarlet fever and started itching like crazy... about two thirds of the class was in the doctor's surgery on that same day, including myself. And like, it was real itching, real redness, REAL temperatures and sore throats, in many cases. But when I'd been home for like, a day, I was absolutely FINE. Half my class was back at school within a couple days. To this day, I have no idea who, if any of my classmates, actually HAD it. I guess this could be what it was...

I’m watching this wide eyed, I still have a headache, but it’s not real.

[@thescholarsjourney661]

I didn't get a headache, but I DID think I could HEAR hypersounds

I tried to tell my friends the flu was going around and a week later we were sent home so we would not get the flu... oops

Michael Splane well played

[@Angelblue1302]

Welp. Nocebo worked a little too well.

im going to try that....wait im homeschooled nevermind

Jokes on you, I could hear the beep. Guess I am a dog.

Jokes on you, I did hear a beep, but it apparently wasn't the video, and it did hurt..

Effect

@@clown-eating-hippo Affect

[@clown-eating-hippo]

@@aaa-dj9bx Incorrect. Affect as a noun has to do with emotional expression.

[@aaa-dj9bx]

Guys Affect is a verb and Effect is a noun

I didn't watch with headphones and I muted the audio at one point and I still have a headachish feeling

[@armanhossain7453]

This channel is goldmine. Why didnt i discover it earlier?

[@futurehistory2110]

Sometimes when I think the volume is on a video and assume its low, I can 'hear' a video playing very quietly then realize the volume isn't on at all and it's imaginary.

[@brandonlink6568]

I'll get that too sometimes if I see a video playing out of the corner of my eye but don't know it's muted, my brain will make up what sounds like words that are just too quiet to make out but when I look at the video and concentrate on the sound to hear it it stops.

[@nissansucc5486]

Bruh I thought this was only me

[@tachyonicnewt2473]

This happens with music to a lot of people

[@izzyGO52]

@@user-pi1du7vu9e you just hear a garble of sounds, like if there was a quiet conversation going on behind a closed door but it's too muffled for you to quite make out what people are saying

[@Dreamheart101]

I listen to the same soundtrack every night and sometimes get the same effect - I can't tell if the volume got messed up again or if I'm imagining it playing Even after confirming its not I'll still hear it, too...

I know right? What kind of farm has WiFi

[@Ciara_Foxx]

No headache, but I swear I heard the faintest high pitch dog whistle right after you said there was a sound. It tripped me up.

[@undersc0r]

I already had a headache before I watched the video

[@hamishkane6545]

This video cured my blindness. Turns out it was just a nocebo.

[@lotusfish8632]

*Acchually* dont wanna sound annoying but that would be a placebo as it is a positive effect. and now i feel really annoying

[@emberiza2022]

*actually

[@FlyGirl774]

you been fooled again its not nocebo but locebo

[@FlyGirl774]

you been fooled again its called placebo

[@moth3562]

I think he was saying his blindness was a nocebo, not it being cured, so it is negative

[@ulasonal]

I actually paused the video and got up to get my headphones. I will not forgive this man for getting me out of bed.

[@LioPrime]

I had the volume down and subtitles on... I still got a headache? Come on brain! You can do better!

[@Maxo11x]

glad I can still hear the hypersound

[@lifeiscrap103]

4:57 "...While another group watches something... uninformative" Picture of the History Channel. My favorite part of the video. Because it is true.

[@3594910025R]

No wonder it showed a mini series of the Bible

[@lifeiscrap103]

3594910025R It showed a series about FUCKING ALIENS! I'm not saying it was retarded, but it was retarded!

[@youtube.comsucks]

I told my friend that the asthma attack he was having was just a nocebo. He's not moving anymore. Help?

[@johan_r59]

Hes just ignorant, and doesn't want to believe you. You should probably consider getting friends with an IQ of at least 125. Good thing he will keep pretending to be dead, since now the strong will survive and the weak die off. Evolution in its purest form!

[@spiritofthewoods3013]

I was just thinking about this being a great setup for a placebo effect, and yep, there it is

[@sprainposting]

i absolutely love that the thing on the TV that is 'uninformative' at 4:55 is the History Channel, as a history buff this is very true

[@i1113]

i was literally repeating “this is a placebo” and it still hurt because i don’t trust my judgement...

it's a nocebo a placebo is when it has not bad effects but nocebo is negative effect
