I thought it was a bit amusing at 4:54 that the example of cereal box mascots "looking directly at you" showed 8 such products on a store shelf... of which, if examined closely, only one was actually looking directly at you.

Underrated content keep up the good work

[@socialneuro]

Appreciate it

Looks like a gem of a channel. I always like the more raw and obscure science explained by an actual professor, vs the generic pop-sci slop that's always trending. It might have a 100K once the algorithm picks it up

Just watched 3 of your vids and it’s great educational/informative stuff. Great clear communication I appreciate your effort and sharing your expertise. 👍

I appreciate that!

I learned how to walk looking at my father's walk at an early age.

There is something that is missed on videos tvs or any projective device. When in person the eyes are something that tells you more then I can explain. Ive been through a bit of violent situations to the point most say they see it in my gaze. What are they seeing in my eyes that show this. We micro-express in so many ways. Great video sir I thoughly enjoyed it

I really can't stand eye contact and am on the autism spectrum...I feel some empathy but I suspect that it's still perceived as lacking by others ...is this related? Really enjoy your very interesting videos, thanks for making them and sharing
