Why people think they see ghosts - YouTube


Humans have believed that ghosts exist from long ago. A survey shows that 45% of Americans believe that ghosts exist and that dead people may revive in certain places and situations.


Also, 28% of people actually answered that they saw a ghost.


Ghosts are often used as materials for movies. The 1999 film "Six Sense" depicts the ending surprises of ghosts.


Ghosts are also frequently used as a theme for novels.


There is evidence that ancient mankind also has strong feelings of existence of ghosts and impression of the world after death.



So, for you will whether evidence has been found that shows actually that ghosts exist in modern science?


I heard a story by Mr. Joe Nickel who conducts a scientific investigation of paranormal phenomena in Buffalo, New York State. An international nonprofit organization "Saikop"It is a researcher who investigates paranormal phenomena from a scientific point of view while receiving salary only in the world".


Mr. Nickel's purpose is not to explain paranormal lies, but conversely to touch the correct lies, it seems to be in the "to explain" to the last.


Mr. Nickel has adopted all kinds of methods such as linguistics, blood analysis, psychological method to explain paranormal phenomenon. It seems that the answer that Mr. Nickel has reached was that there was no scientifically explained explanation even for just one example.


This problem is made difficult because it is because the definition of "ghost" differs among people. It is also "ghost work" that the book falls off the bookshelf ...


Try saying "Orb" reflected in the picture as a ghost.


Sudden footsteps that can be heard from the attic are also ghosts ......


"Ghost" to help my wife's pottery from behind ... This is a snake feet.


Many of the evidence that shows ghost existence is said to be an obscure picture ......


Video footage of surveillance cameras and so on ....


It is a "testimony by eyewitness".


When "Ghost Hunter" looks for a ghost, the "EMF meter" which measures the surrounding electromagnetic field is used. This is based on the logic that the electromagnetic field is disturbed when a ghost appears.


However, no one can explain its relevance, and many scientists show skeptical views.


In other words, we can not prove the existence of ghosts from the perspective of science for now. However, even if you think "I saw a ghost," there is actually a part that can never be said that "it has become strange".


It is due to the reason that there are many logical explanations for the experiences of paranormal phenomena.


One of them is "infrastructure sound" of less than 20 hertz which human beings are too low to hear. This sound may be generated by weather conditions, humpback whale activity, machines like engines and electric fans.


In the past research it turned out that this infrastructure sound can be a cause of declining feelings, cold, and someone standing near me.


Also, he is an American scientistNeil Drossz Tyson"The human eyeball resonates with 18 hertz which oscillates 18 times per second, the eyeball vibrates at 18 Hertz, which sometimes makes it impossible to see something that is inherently invisible." It is.


Also, based on the characteristics of human perception, research is being conducted to reproduce the feeling that ghosts exist. This machine stereoscopically reads the movement of human fingers ......


A device that can reproduce the same motion with the arm on the back side.


Using this device, I move my back arms by manipulating my fingers to "snip" my back, but with a slight "deviation" of less than 1 second for that movement That's the point.


Even if you are reproducing your operation as it is, because there is a gap there, human beings are feeling that someone else is there and sticking on their backs. The characteristics of such human senses are also considered to cause human beings to experience paranormal phenomena.


This is called "Misperceived Self-Representation" (incorrectly perceived self-representation).


Mr. Nickel says, "People have seen ghosts can happen, but they occur in a" slumber "between the state of full sleeping and the state of complete occurrenceDaydreamIt is often caused by. "


This daydream is also called "Sleep paralysis", that is, "sleeping paralysis" or "waking seizure".


When I am asleep, the body does not move though there is consciousness "wrestling" exactly refers to this state. A human being feels the existence of "ghosts" at such a time when the body does not move as if it is pressed by someone and feels something.


Also, the feelings of "sadness" will also cause the feeling of a ghost.


There are survey results that 60% of those who lost their close contacts feel that they have the opponent's presence and have the experience of listening to their voices.


book"People looking at: hallucination brain scienceA book by British neurologist · author (Hallucinations) ·Oliver SacksMr. says that by seeing the face of a person who has passed away, humans can confront the feelings of sorrow.


Mr. Sachs said about hallucinations seen by humans, "Hallucinations are not afraid and are often comforting, it is part of the process of expressing condolences to the deceased people, filling in heart-minded holes It will help you to heal yourself. " By the way, Mr. Sax said the movie nominated for the Academy Award, starring Robert DeNiro and Robin Williams "Morning of Leonard"ofOriginal novelIt is also a person who announced.


Mr. Nickel says, "There is no doubt that many paranormal phenomena lead to very positive results, although there are some exceptions, everything is related to human hope and fear." .


"I hope that ghosts exist, because I want to think that" human beings do not die perfectly. "The loved one does not go somewhere, still exists and lives For example, when my grandmother died, I felt strongly that I do not want to accept that it is the fact, but the spirit came out of our body and became a ghost The idea of ​​continuing to keep on was a very big thing for me. "


"Because everyone says" I wanted to tell mother this thing only "or" I do not think I was seriously angry about my father at that time. "Nickel Mr.


Perhaps the existence of a ghost is actually in his own mind.
