This is crazy. To think I've lived 32 years without ever realizing that dogs constantly hear a piano playing in their heads.
😆
😂😂
THEY GOT BGMs PLAYING FOR THEM AUTOMATICALLY!? HOW CAN WE EVOLVE TO SUCH A GRAND BEING!?
LOL right a piano and a xylophone.
lmao
I had a Dachshund who went blind. He could find his way from across the street, through the yard, right to the back yard gate. He'd take a few steps, tilt his head, reorient himself, take more steps, repeating the process. One day the two water fountains in the front and side yards were not running. Instead of finding his way, he walked in circles, completely lost and confused. I realized then, *he used the sound of the fountains to triangulate his path to the gate.*
My mind is still blown by watching this little dog do more complicated math, in his head, than I can without a calculator.
In a sense this is the audio equivalent of vision - using reflections of ambient noise. I understand that submarines use this 'passive sonar' to remain incognito.
your dog isnt really doing math, thats not how the instinctual perception of space and proprioception works. there's technically math going into you being able to catch a ball without looking at your hand the whole way, but you're not doing calculations like you would do with trigonometry. you just kind of instinctually know where your hand is and how far you have to move it to catch the ball.
as someone whos vision impaired (not blind but i certainly dont see as well as everyone else, even corrected), i do the same sort of thing all the time. mostly in online gaming, the spatial perception of sound really helps fill in the gaps my sight leaves out.
say for instance in a shooter, with a few turns of the "characters head" (looking left and right, kinda the equivalent of a dog head tilt.) i can work out almost exactly where in space a set of footsteps is coming from. i do this in real life as well when trying to pinpoint a sound i cant see. so i found Benn's mention that humans dont do the head tilt kind of funny, because i certainly do it.
anyway the point is, im not calculating any numbers in my head to work that out. its just a passive skill you pick up when your other senses have to compensate for bad sight. its like how your eyes have to coordinate to both look at the same object in order to perceive its 3d space, but with your ears instead.
@@foxboy64 Well Benn was probably talking about humans without vision impairment, he only said we aren't born with this ability. But as you said, we can certainly develop it to compensate for something damaged in our perception, but evolution never felt the need to give us an instinct from birth that makes our head tilt to compensate for a lack of "3D hearing" (can't come up with a better word).
@@foxboy64 I also find it amazing that your hearing is the first sense to develope in the womb and the last sense to stop working at time of death. I've always considered my hearing more important than my sight. I'm a musician, so that probably has a lot to do with it.
@@foxboy64 Awesome explanation, thank you! I know he wasn't really calculating, but he was so smart, it wouldn't shock me. I am sure he outsmarted me, many times. Again, thanks for the clarification, I appreciate your time and have a better understanding. 👍
I always thought “I wonder how this thing sees the world” but never “I wonder how this thing hears things” I just assumed every animal just heard sounds the same speed but louder or quieter than other animals
I just wanna know how skeletons can hear tbh
@@ShwappaJthey can't
@@ShwappaJExplain the joke
Its propably because we usually only talk about vision. It is by far the most used sense that we have. Without vision we lose about 80% of our perception. For this dog it might not have been nearly as mindblowing as for you
@@user-pq4il4xo9s r/whoosh
A note about flies: they also sense changes in air pressure extremely well which is why a lattice-like object that allows air to flow through it, such as a swatter, can reliably hit flies when swung fast but a solid, flat object like an open palm is telegraphed from a fly-mile away. coincidentally an object moving slower creates less of a disturbance in air pressure.
wow so the holes on a swatter is intentional
I'm not convinced that the frequency of sound would be different to dogs or other animals. Unlike computers, we actually have different parts of our cochleas that are sensitive to different frequencies. So I think the pitch of our voices would remain the same for dogs, but it would just seem that we're talking more slowly.
It’s more that his editing program deepens the pitch when the video clip is slowed down
@@JohnZ-
Strangely, due to digital sound processing, playback speed can be changed independently of frequency. Even some digital answering machines can do this.
It seemed like he reduced the pitch of his voice, more so than any slowdown of playback speed could have accounted for? Like maybe sound-editing on a computer.
And since they don’t understand English, you could use some ai software to giberize the audio so the tone and cadence are the same but it’s just essentially unintelligible.
I believe the reality is that dogs (and other animals) will actually hear a wider sound spectrum with a different frequency bias (see the Fletcher Munson Curve); the perceived loudness of human speech for example may not be as prominent, though they have become attuned to human speech through evolution and breeding. Dogs interpret pitch and intonation and have been demonstrated to read human faces for cues. No doubt that their temporal resolution and reaction times are vastly superior though, much like cats.
My understanding of human temporal resolution is that it's actually more nuanced than just saying it rolls off at 60 Hz; I can clearly see the difference between 60 and 90/100 Hz for example. Above that, at least on my high refresh monitor, I can't reliably test due to the inherent limitations of IPS panels. But I can absolutely see at a faster refresh than 60 Hz. Whether my brain is able to react as fast is another matter, largely dependent on attentiveness and whatever is occupying active thought processes (e.g. how talking on a phone while driving or focusing on a satnav reduces spatial awareness).
@@ChristopherWoods
Wouldn't dogs become attuned to human speech because they like us and due to familiarity? We humans probably smell funny and talk funny, but they do not much care about that, because they like us.
I have long wanted to write a modern GUI OS for my first computer, my Apple //e, that I bought in 1985. I have estimated that in its highest resolution, double-high-resolution graphics, if I could straight copy from memory, at just 1 MHz CPU, I could only get about 5 frames per second, faster if I only have to redraw a smaller portion of the screen. That is because the loop cycle time uses about 12 clock cycles, and an entire 16K block of RAM data has to be copied to the video RAM buffer again and again. Back in the day, that would have been almost enough to do a 3-D game, if I could somehow approach that in my game. It wouldn't be too terribly bad for scrolling a stylized text screen. Not quite the "instant" response of modern computers, but a mere fifth of a second. And repeat arrow keys hold-down or presses could be combined into greater-distance scrolls so as to keep up. Certainly a calm game like _Myst_ could work with such a low frame rate. But if I only wanted to make the screen flash, I could maybe boost it to 6 or 7 frames a second, since I wouldn't have to load new data into the CPU's registers. Or it could be much faster by switching to a lower-resolution screen.
It wasn't that long ago that 24 frames a second for film in the movie theater, was plenty fast. Maybe the flicker is noticeable, but still motion appears to be motion.
I had once hypothesized that this is the reason it's so hard to smack a fly when it lands on you, it's living so fast you're moving in slow motion. I sort of tested it when I discovered that if you move slow enough they can't see it until you get in strike range. So slow it appears to them that you aren't moving at all. I wrote this comment before he talked about flys.
A better trick, flies focus on anything moving, so wave your fingers in one hand and stile with the other. Works every time.
That's a very well known point about flies. Until you hit them upwards.
I'm a master at flicking flies into oblivion. Get the flicking ready, slowly get hand into range, smack that fly faster than it can react. Mr miyagi would be proud.
yall killing flies on a stealth mission meanwhile I put out the rocket launcher aka catching it while it flies
That's pretty crazy
I have a degree in neuroscience & physiology and have studied animal physiology, and have never heard an insects' lungless respiratory system referred to as a consequence of their flicker fusion frequency. This feels like when I accidentally wound up in computational neurobiology as a sophomore with senior engineers who were being given an intro to neuro in the hopes of working on the computing side of medical research, and me chiming in with my accurate but slightly different physiological perspective of only two years into neuro. I love and live for interdisciplinary work and am jiving with this content.
I don’t think their respiratory system is necessarily a consequence of their flicker fusion frequency. They may have evolved independently or are both the consequence of a high metabolism and avoidance of danger.
I do appreciate your love of multi-disciplinary investigations though.
All work should be interdisciplinary I think… I fucking hate specialization as I view it as a critical failure point for any civilization, and a cause for a huge load of our modern day issues. Because people in one field know jack shit about anything in ANY others. Fundamental education should be rounded and generalized, only slightly ellipsing the further into your education you get. Right now? Just nothing but strings. All getting tangled and wrestling eachother barbarically

I won't lie, the slowed down bird calls really makes me wonder how advanced their languages actually are. What sounds like to us almost identical sounds all had a slightly different pitch like they were their own words. Wonder what we'll find out about orca in the coming years.

I can tell you as someone who has experienced many dangerous and life threatening situations. Humans have the ability to slow time. I have perceived time many times slower than normal allowing me to make decisions and take actions I should not have had time for. Very much like the Matrix. Your video has helped understand something I have known, for a long time. I finally can explain to all the people who told me I was imagining it, or I was lieing.
Yep! One example is when we have surges of adrenaline, we are able to make decisions much sharper and quicker especially when they could mean life or death. Animals likely have chemicals within them that are impacted to slow and speed up their processes based on their external stimuli and needs.
i suspect that one day we will learn that what we call intelligence boils down to “clock speed” and “fidelity of mental simulations.”
if someone’s clock speed was dialed up the pace of the world might feel slowed down…they would notice all the little things someone is doing when they speak, it would be as if they were out of synch.
they may get bored easily since a day could feel like years under certain conditions
perhaps they would seek flow just to break out of this time perception trap (one year feeling like a decade sometimes)
and if they had a rich imagination they could take daydreaming to another level
for all we know einstein and mozart lived for hundreds of subjective years with their mind movies being as engrossing as some advanced VR simulation
@@JezebelIsHongryI have no idea how true that is, but it _does_ sound like a good story plot/plot device! Like in the movie Limitless.
What.is time but the movement of attention?
Roger that, hellcat!
12:19 the baby elephant using his trunk to rub his eye is frickin' adorable!
You mean to tell me, my cat is making these insane ninja moves in a faster timeline than I see them? That just made me respect cats even more!
Maybe that’s whyyy they are so fast?
Let's disrespect some birds, though - since they got catched by cats, even though they can see em coming for human 5 minutes =D
But in their world, they sound like dinosaurs, wich is cool again...
Flies are the same way. It's why they are hard to hit. They're in the matrix. We look slower to them.
I have the suspicion cats process faster than that. Humans process quicker in extreme situations, we perceive time slower in moments of excitement, especially adrenaline fuelled events. I see my cats pupils go huge even in the day when she’s hunting. I think cats switch on a mode where they overclock their brain for a while to hunt; while I barely passed biology I think like a camera they need more light in their eyes to run that frame rate, there’s no way she could react as fast as she does while operating slower than me at rest.. I often barely process what shes doing. When you slow-mo your cat on your phone while chasing a toy its still fairly calculated, accurate movements/reactions, not blind flailing and hope.

Etérea😊😊😮 es 15:59 😮😮
Crazy to think they’re still our best friends when we are so slow to them lol.
If you had a giant friend who fed you, scratched you and gave you a home, wouldn't you put up with him eventhough he's a bit slower than you?
What does one thing have to do with the other?
They are born with this perception, they don't care
Humans still love dogs even though dogs tend to do things that are disgusting to us
Like sniffing butts
Crazy he didn't think to record this vid in 60fps.
“Crazy”

This is a great video. Anyone interested in going further should read "An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us" by Ed Yong!
Thank you very much
Thank you❤
OOOh thankyou, looking now :)
Love it... Thank you for the suggestion 👍
When discussing the "fps of your eyes/brain" I feel its inaccurate to describe it as the definitive fps you can see when 60 is much more a baseline, its the minimum required flashes per second to see a light as always on. The max without diminishing returns is around the thousands.
Could you write that better and elaborate a bit?
This totally makes sense of why dogs react when we speak to them in that high pitched sing-songy voice we all do. To them it sounds like a normal excited voice with our usual voice dipping so low in octave. Also why hearing very high pitch is easier for them as it's brought to a significantly lower frequency in their ears. Very intriguing.
I never used that voice with my dog.
@@hugdablok6162 Poor dog. Lol
@@hugdablok6162 D O U B T
that explains why women are better with animals...the voice of a woman is sweet to their ears
Somehow I feel like this isn’t entirely accurate 🤷♂️
The bird songs are what I believe is the closest we will ever get to potentially hearing dinosaur calls. The slowed and deepened frequency, along with the fact these animals evolved from dinosaurs, really makes me think a bunch of slowed bird calls would be like taking a step back over a hundred million years ago!
Imagine a Dinosaur that can talk like a parrot that can copy human talking
Lol kinda funny, but imagine is a trex 😮 now it's kinda creepy lol
@@catoftruth1044 Now thats an interesting thing to think about. If dinosaurs had the ability to mimic, it would be an extremely helpful hunting trait, since they could bait prey to them, and trick them.
The last words you hear before you're eaten are, "WHO's A PRETTY BOY?"
Scientists have already released what they think dinosaurs sounded like. They made a combination of bird and alligator noises slowed way down. Sounds really bad ass!
people like you make the world feel magically. Thank you for uploading this. How amazing!
Agreed!
You might have mistaken the resolution with speed. Cats might see blur easier than humans, but it doesn't mean that everything is sped up for them. Things still are perceived real time. Dogs don't hear us speaking slower than we are. Let's say that they have higher ISO in camera sense

Wow. I always thought that, just due to size difference and movement speeds, that dogs would perceive us as slow lumbering giants. But I had no idea how true that was. :D
Lumbering giants 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always found this very annoying. Other animals have different speeds of processing information. This means that someone that is more exiting to us, may seem more slow and dull to say a dog. This doesn’t mean that other animals quite literally see the world in a slow motion kind of way. If it did, no matter what weird science thing you did will always have a delayed reaction. And you can see with other animals that they do not. To a dog, time feel like it’s going slower, but doesn’t actually look and sound like it’s going slower. It like when you’re bored.
@@-S.F.K. Thanks for this. It is indeed a really annoying misunderstanding.
@@colorfulchameleon9891 glad you agree
Yeah,but my Chiwawa Terrier mix,Eddie,can't reliably catch hamburger when I throw it to him, if time is slowed down for him, he should.
Great video, very interesting and entertaining. Thanks for the heads up about possible epilepsy triggers!!!
I'm constantly trying to shift my ears to try and hear different things outside, it usually ends up looking like a slight lean towards the direction but sometimes it can look like I'm walking in a tiny circle when I can't exactly tell what direction it's coming from, that usually happens when it's something in a tree and projecting the sound in different directions.
😅👍
What I found interesting is that the bird sounds sounded like what movies use for dinosaur sounds.
Totally! They are, after all, little raptors!
They literally do use a blend of real animal calls (including birds) and just slow it down. That's how they made those sounds
Why do birds sound so much more melodic to us?
@@amyblueskyirl16 really, most don't. They chirp or caw and it's not that melodic at all. I was wishing he'd give us a better song bird example, though! That would have been neat!
I thought that too
Hearing you say "you want some chicken?' In a slowed down drunken voice is unexpectedly hilarious.
Thank you for this video - I imagine you lurking on your porch for hours perhaps even days in order to capture just the right footage lasting only for a few seconds in the video - let alone all the equipment necessary to pull this off. Your videos are too valuable for the majority of people, both in time and resource consumption. I'm flabbergasted. A big thank you!
This video is awesome!! Thank you for creating !
Humans can change time perception too.
For instance under extremely stressful and/or life threatening conditions.
I have experienced this personally. I have been in a car accident years ago, skidded on a side of the curved road and crashed into a tree with the drivers side door (I was driving).
I can remember to this day how my time perception had extremely slowed down to the point where I could see the tree approaching, then slowly making contact with the car door, the door slowly bending around the three, the glass shattering into hundreds of tiny pieces and flying towards me, all that as if I was watching video footage that was slowed down tens of times and at the same time the resolution and detail was extremely enhanced. The crash took a second or two but it felt like time almost stopped at that particular moment. Will never forget it.
Actually there was a research for this involving blindfolded people doing backwards bungee jump.
The result was that they did not experience time dilatation. But they formed a lot more memories, being able to recall details that would have been normally discarded.
The reverse happens in prison solitude - while it is extremely bad at the time, prisoners later recollected as if months passed as days. Of course if there are no interesting things happening around you, all days blend into each other.
same reason why people think your life flashes before you when you die.
Dude. I've been hit by a red light running car when i was in food delivery on a scooter. I clearly remember i saw my precious yamaha spinning and flipping slowly on the road while i was sliding on my head (in a helmet) and i had time to think about what i'll need to repair. The whole accident felt much slower after the inpact. Luckily i only hurt one of my legs and not too badly. Allways wear your protective gear on two wheels guys.. a slow ride on a small bike doesn't mean safety!
Sadly intersting
Omg the same has happend to me! Its so intresting
Wow... I seriously didn't think that other species lived TIME differently that me. This was quite and "eye-opening" experience! Thank you :)

@@-S.F.K. The whole claim you guys mention here from the video is a highly repeated myth among the public, especially those who still don't understand or even read good old Albert E' and his relativity clarifications.
And one of the most frequent things to see is people also mentioning AE without having checked or managed to understand his work (of course it has a few quirks but no major things).
The perception organisms have is of *motion* ,not of time, as we have relative motions.
E= MC squared. Time is the way we register the reduction of distances between what is in always present motion.
Each moving locality is only in a speed relative to what you compare to.
The only exception here is a semi-particle moving at C, called a photon, and that is why it is a semi-particle and not a regular mass particle.
(Luminosity = high energy particles reaching your eyes)
So time in real physics = the reduction of distance.
That's it.
It is how to define that you proved motion to occur.
Or like some will say a measuring concept.
There is no time "on top of" motion in an existential fashion.

A more disarming question is: "How do we know left from right?"
The biggest surprise is that a simple question, “What does the world sound like to a dog?” Involves covering such a wide range of topics to fully answer. Amazing.

I think the reason that we don't hear noises so well above and below us is because of our size in our environment. Our threats don't come from above or below but from right in front of us or behind of us. If our main appendages were wings or we were smaller relative to our environment, things might be different.
Eh, I might argue that threats to us can most certainly come from above us.
@@Yes_Anastasia give us another 1000 years and we'll have the means to detect and deter threats from above too. Even today an example includes missle/air defense systems. We've kinda adapted already if you think about it.
@@adye88 I don't see why we would evolve to have that when humans no longer live in a world of predatory threats. The only thing we have to fear are other humans, and they don't often attack from above. A thousand years is far too little time as well, we're not more evolved than people living in the medieval era
So is it rare to be able to tell? I never have issues
Our eyes are for front and vertical threats. Ears specialize in protecting our flanks. Brains specialize in making sure we don't get snuck up on from behind through systematic exploration methods. We aren't gonna physically evolve any further since civilization developed, bc we live on the equivalent of peaceful mode in Minecraft and only really have to worry about griefers lmao
I'm a vet tech I'm fascinated by this..... Always doing my best to understand animals and do better at communicating with them .
I am also one! Thank you for all you do! I’m really wondering how 100% this is, although super interesting and sounds like it’s spot on, but I wonder how can we REALLY know what they hear unless we were actually them?
@@ThattechniciangirlB nope. But i also can never know how you percieve the world. Do you see colours or hear sounds the same way i do? I have no idea. It’s all just guesswork. I also wonder if and how animals can ‘see’ smells.
@@Peacefrogg You'd see if sense of smell is tied to visual in the brain; That's how we know taste is affected by smell for us.
@@ThattechniciangirlB That question is more philosophical as it can apply to anyone or thing; One of the most important and renowned historical questions in philosophy is 'what's it like to be a crow?' Which brings into mind the concept of consciousness itself-what if certain colors *seen* weren't *recognized* by the brain of an animal? Would it think on such colors? Or only the colors of prey it's evolved to hunt?
Also, to answer your honestly simple question: You can tell by the structure of their fucking eyes and the neurological structure of their brain. Same with ears. And nose.
That's how we KNOW dogs truly feel and have developed parts of the brain necessary to feel a bond of love with humans.
What I want to know is: Why do people ask such questions without putting any much effort into it? Most of these I've learned simply through feeds of published studies; I'm guessing yours consist of Facebook posts and tiktok trends? Treat yourself as good, if not better than your animals-you're a species of your own and should be just as strong; physically and mentally.
Peace n love
@@sullyschwartz2365 i get that. So if animals could really see smells the visual section in their brain would light up.
But i don’t think it’s that simple. If smells could construct a kind of map in the brain in a similar way that sight can, i don’t think it’s necessary for the same section of the brain to be active.
At the same time you and i can both see the colour blue, identify it as blue, have the same parts of our brain be active as we see it, but still not be certain whether we see it the same way.

I would think that we'd still be unaware how different animals actually integrate that visual data into their own reality. None of us actually see unfiltered input. Our brains create the world we view to some extent, so how can we know what else is modified by the animal's brain. Very interesting, impressive video. I'd love to hear your plant results as well.
Yeah apparently we actually see things upside down but the brain flips the image
You can tell because some animals have significantly higher reaction times than us, like flies. This also goes hand in hand with the example he gave in the video, that if you move slowly towards it, they don't register it as movement. That's pretty hard proof that their temporal reality is sped up!
@JasonKlein97 Yes, I didn't mean the very obvious examples like flies. And I didn't only mean to refer to the ability to react. I still think there are other factors that influence how reality looks and feels. It's nice that this video addresses some of them. I like videos like this and hope it brings people closer to all living things.
@@Sans_The_SkeletonWell since our brain really doesn't have any reference of what the "right" way up is, it's not really flipping anything at all. The flipped view is just how we perceive things, I guess
I know exactly what you're saying, and it is the same intuition I had. We can only approximate based on our human level of filtering.
That was soooo interesting and nerdy and awesome!! haha, Nice work Benn you made my day better :)
I'm so glad I saw this video, as this time experience differential between different types of life forms is something that has been a theory of mine for several years!
I'd always assumed a cat's perception of time was slow-motion (compared to ours) and that's why they were so good at doing dexterous stuff... and why they needed to sleep so much (lots of information to process). Interesting that I was completely wrong.

It's a bit tricky for example cat reaction time is faster than ours.
Their perception of time may be slower but their reaction time is still faster.
Cats do seem to observe the general behaviour of something before making a move. Why they never strike a toy on the first pass.
The whole "time is relative" thing is so hard to wrap my head around, but I'm always seeing new bewildering evidence that the speed at which time flows isn't always the same.
Time flows the same no matter what. Too many people confuse spacetime as some magical sci fi concept. Spacetime is actually just space at a certain event. Time always moves forward.
Time is an event and does not change that event point. How you see something (known as your perception of time) is what they mean.
Think of a bird who can see the spectrums (rgb and uv). Us who can see rgb. And cats/dogs who can see green and blue spectrum but not red.
Now think of an orange ball with uv markings on it. Bird can see orange and uv.
Humans can see only orange.
Dogs/spectrum cant see red spectrum and orange is about 45% or more red spectrum with 20 to 40% green spectrum and 0 to 10 ish% spectrum. To them it will appear like a desaturated bluish green/yellow.
But has the ball changed? NO. It has not. It is still the same. We simply just dont see it the same way.
Time is the same.
Time does not miraculousy pull magic.
This is not a hard concept. Just normal people who misinterpreted what einsteins spacetime means.
While time may feel slower or faster from your viewpoint, time itself does not change. Event A has always happened at Event A.
Think of an obese and a fit person running at the same pace... tied together with the same leash. Footsteps in sync. Obese person may feel like everything is taking forever as it is basically dragged around by fit person. Fit person may feel relaxed, slow paced but as if time runs quickly.
Perception is mental. It is not reality.
The reality of a time event should not be conflated with imaginary perception. Its created this massive misunderstanding of time and spacetime as some sort of gidly hocus pocus that is far simpler than you think.
@@LilyUnicorn no, there's plenty of scientific theories devoted to the idea that time flows forward and backwards. Or others that suggest time is not directional and is occurring simultaneously.
@@Lithane97 time isnt anything but a human made concept. All there is is particles that move and that we perceive . You cant go back in time because those events have happend. Even if you travel faster than light, the world will seem slow around you but you cant reverse events that have already taken place.
Your experience of time relative to others is what changes, not time itself or your own experience of time; if you were travelling 100ly at C, you would experience 100 years, but for people on Earth whose experience of time is influenced by the Earth's conditions and gravity and all that hoohaa have a different perspective: if you were to return, you'd return a number of years I'm too lazy to whip out a calculator for, but a lot, but you would have only experienced 200 years to have passed on this hypothetical trip.
The Quickening you fools. Bwuhahahaha!!!!
Brilliant! Thank you for making and sharing this.
10:15 its so surreal hearing them at this frequency, they almost sound like id imagined dinosaurs sounded.
incredible
Exactly what i thought!
that part immediately made me think about the movie Predator, both for some of the sounds of the creature but also and maybe more amazingly the soundtrack they used in parts of the movie... felt completely inspired by this, what the hell
i think they are just small feathery dinosaurs.
@@9000ck They literally are taxonomically.
I mean, birds belong to the "Sauropsida" clade, so... Yeah. They're literally the only know "subset" of dinosaurs still living to this day. They belong to the same clade (which roughly means "a group composed of organisms with common ancestor and all its lineal descendants").
10:34 not the bird saying “ yeet” 😂😂😂 i knew they can speak English in fast pitch
Nah dude it's saying yee like its dino ancestors😅
MAIN EVENT BIRD USO IS NOW IN YOUR FORESSTT!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
First video I see of yours and, oh boy, am I a fan! Awesome topic, thanks for this collection of curious facts!
Great video. Thank you! Would love to see a further deep dive into whatever is going on in birdsong. It's far more complex than I'd realized. It hearkens back to research that demonstrates what many various types of bird plumage actually look like if you, like birds, could also see ultraviolet.
We do in fact hear whether a sound comes from behind or in front of us, and I would assume also up or down. It’s the reason why our ears are ear shaped. It reflects and channels the sound just slightly differently depending on the direction it comes from, so as we grow up our brain will fine tune its guess to where the sound is from.
Steve Mould has a great demonstration on how messing with the ear shape will totally mess with your ability to track sounds.
Yes. Things directly in front of you are heard better than sounds coming from the left or right even.
@@DannyGruesome Sure, but you could do that even with just earholes based on the difference in timing and volume since one ear is closer than the other.
That doesn't work when the sound is coming from above, below, in front of, or behind you since they have the same distance to both ears.
It's literally impossible to tell the difference without some kind of special ear shape that can _create_ a difference in the reflected sound.
Binaural recording mimics the human head! It's near full 3D with only regular headphones, sans physical shaking of floors and other objects. It's not just the ears, but the whole head and even mechanical waves transferred through materials we are in contact with, and how the brain extrapolates distance and direction from all of it in processing. From what I heard the reason some of us can't tell direction well and what not, is because with all of the modern amenities, we don't have to be all that alert all the time, and many of us just don't use our senses to the best of our abilities. People can learn how to hone their senses though. I also wouldn't be surprised if many pets are also operating on diminished capacity.
but the only difference between a sound in front or behind is the decibels. the same sound would be only louder in front of you. i could play the same sound, but you would want to say its in front if its louder. so its kind of a stretch to say we can actually hear a sound from infront of you versus behind you. its really just a guess. so calling a 'guess' or a 'feeling' as 'fact' is kinda hardcore lol. u also cant tell if a sound is above or below you, is why a lot of people get confused in video games about vertical audio, thats because there is no such thing as vertical audio lol. its all a guess or a feeling, and you have to move your head and hear the noise again to actually know
@@SaebriSelect Not true: Your head and ear lobes, hair... change the sound that's behind you, in a way the same sound sounds different from different directions. It isn't the volume that counts as that can be distance related. The brain can tell distance of some sounds for their familiarity and what volume they are expected to be at. Now add movement, the Doppler effect and what not and you actually do hear in full 3D!
The problem with this video is that is too short, and we don't have enough time to appreciate how good he is.
The real time perception is in how long it took me to get some of those 1000fps shots lol
You can always play the video at 0.5x speed
I don't understand why so many viewers on CZcams want very long videos; like as if many of us don't have things to do throughout the day and a finite amount of time.
15 minutes is enough time to cover a topic like the one we just watched.
I'd rather watch a short, concise video than a bloated, longwinded video that has been artificially lengthened. Frankly, it's the reason I prefer John Michael Godier over Isaac Arthur.
@@BennJordan i enjoyed this greatly but it still left me hungry for more, especially as regards the perceptions of reptiles. in all honesty i have a selfish reason in that i'd love to know more about how my friendly ball python, bob, perceives the world around him. i know that he probably exists in a chemosensory world through his incredibly engineered olfactory system but what of his sight and hearing? ah, well. some day i'll find out, or not. in the meantime, thanks for your excellent videos.
I agree I was just getting into it and it was over. What did the sea algae 'see'?
Just came across your channel, 3 mins in i’ve already subscribed. Can already tell you’re a good content creator
I want to know HOW they measure the CFFF for various animals. I’d love to see exactly how they go about actually doing the experiment. This is absolutely fascinating
This makes me wonder about long lived ambush hunters like tarantulas, who generally have pretty poor vision as far as resolution go, and tend to sit around doing almost nothing until they need to hunt, which is rarely. The longest lived spider was a trapdoor known as Number 16 who lived into her 40s. I wonder what 40 years feels like for a trapdoor Especially since mygalomorphs like trapdoors and tarantulas can have AMAZING reaction times. If you look up a trapdoor grabbing prey, the time it takes for them to grab prey is near instant to us.
I've wondered that too. I could never sit perfectly still for as long as spiders and cats do - even if my lunch depended on it!
Maybe they have a rich internal world.
A rock can sit longer than a river because one does not move while the other flow. Basically, if the world seems bland and empty to a spider, won't it just be nothing to them? They won't just feel anything at all unlike a cat or dog which a world seems colorful to them.
@@Vysair I think it would be unlikely that spiders would evolve such an excellent survival strategy without being able to tolerate or even enjoy the wait. But maybe they have really good podcasts.
Even if they have any memories their time may feel like just nothing, lol! Benefit of living in the moment.
But regarding their visual perception, the time from their visual sensory experience may be different from their internal time perception.
In some of these replies there were questions about cats' supposed slow perception, but it may just be about its visual sensory experience. Their internal time may be different.
Our senses may receive more information than we can process, so each sense may have its own time independent of our internal time that ties the story we tell ourselves...
8:07 this reminds me of the movie "Over the hedge" and hammy the squirrel. He already moved super fast, and near the end of the movie drank an energy drink which meant everything around him slowed down extremely while he moved at what seemed a regular pace, although he himself was lightning fast.
That scene is legendary! Why does this not have any upvotes
Glad you referenced it :)
I felt full on STONED by 6.26 😅😅😅 Great work. What a simple, yet clever question to answer 👏👏
This video is fascinating, I was riveted to this. This is really great content 👌🏻
My parrot can talk. ALSO I know exactly how he “hears” humans when we talk, because he mocks us when we are having a conversation, laughing, or even when we are having a heated conversation. He hates those. He goes “Murr murr murr murr murr murr” to mimic humans talking. It’s kind of similar to the “Peanuts” characters teachers and adults murmur. Which makes me convinced that Charles Schultz had a talking bird at one point in his life, before he made those cartoons, or at least someone on his staff did. I’ve even heard my bird mocking some neighbors outside who are speaking in Chinese, and his mimicking of them sounds exactly like his mimicking of my husband and I speaking English. So it’s not specific to one language. It’s just “human speak.”
But he also has some things he says to us that are very specific to what he’s just heard (like saying “achoo” right after we sneeze.) So it makes me believe he does have some awareness of what he’s saying, that it’s not just mimicry. Not sure what that means for the rate and speed at which he can hear us.
Those are some cute ducks, btw!
I figure I know what you mean. Technically the parrot hears the same sounds, but the general way they perceive and filter it is different. When humans tune out and only half hear the conversation, it doesn't (always) sound like that to us. But it always does to a parrot. I would describe that as "worldview" for lack of a better word, and I also want to add that this is something that differs within species as well.
The "flow" of the world (that I would define as the way one's brain naturally turns its attention between things whether deliberately or otherwise) is perceived differently through autistic eyes than non-autistic eyes even when all concerned are human.
Outside of my own perception, I have only really seen this "flow" represented in the movie Billy Elliot, featuring a boy in a toxically masculine family and who wants to be a ballet dancer - and is definitely autistic. And Billy's autistic issues manifest similarly to those of Zuko from the Avatar the Last Airbender series because, like Zuko, he too is raised by a toxically masculine jerk of a father (so both have meltdowns characterized by very pugilistic anger). Except Billy isn't manipulated the way Zuko is so can still clearly see he wants to do ballet. And it is clear that autistic people were involved in the art direction of that film, because a non-autistic person has neither the words nor frame of reference to know what that even looks like.
@UCnu8XvnIdT38APWzGqlHmng I'm not. The phenomenon I am referring to (due to lack of a word for it and difficulty of portrayal) is very difficult to describe, unless you happen to be one of those people whose perceptual filters differ from the norm (which I am).
Though there is one hint I can give. If they perceive and filter something differently than we do, they will perceive their own imitation of something we do differently than we do, that imitation will line up with their own perception of the thing - but that imitation will end up sounding like something we do to us, because even though their filter is different from ours, it's still capable of registering the same sounds we hear, with consistent rhythms.
And as a result of still being able to hear enough of the sounds line up, they can make an imitation that sounds accurate to our ears even if they hear the imitation and the original sound differently than we do. Because difference in filter is less like being colorblind, if you will, and more like seeing every color, except every color has a different setting.
Like if someone saw a rainbow but their rainbow looked like purple, blue, green, indigo, red, orange, yellow, in that order (resulting in seeing red skies, indigo grass, and blue sunsets), so if they transmitted their view of a landscape to us telepathically, the picture would look downright weird to our eyes.
But since the color alignment perceived by this hypothetical person is consistent right down to them perceiving the colors of paints in alignment with how they see the rainbow, they could still produce a painting with the correct colors, even to our eyes. And they could still name colors correctly, provided you didn't test them with telepathic imagery, because the colors they learned would be according to their perception and not ours.
And the only way you'd see anything is different is through their opinions on which colors clash and which don't. That is how someone can have a very different perception of an aspect of the world, and yet produce accurate representations from the perspective of someone who does not perceive the world the same way. And that is more or less the same level of evidence this person gets from the parrot. Mostly accurate imitation, and a slightly odd form of mockery. And you might not even notice the mockery when it isn't childishly blatant - autistic people have found that they sometimes mock some of the tones of non-autistic folk, only to have the mockery not seen for what it is and taken for a sincere attempt at being polite.
@@lsmmoore1 you have to be careful with the use of toxic masculinity as a term. it is being used in schools to tell kids they shouldn't want to be active or confident in any way, while it may be a real thing people will always take it as you saying masculinity is by default toxic. Because some people are trying to say that. I guess what I am trying to say is its a fine term but its been used for bad too often to be taken seriously. Plus I don't necessarily agree that it is a fair representation of Zuko's full family dynamic. I don't even think he is autistic to be honest, there are many symptoms of autism that can be caused by an abusive family, and it can be hard for anyone to disagree with their family and nation all at once. especially growing up in schools telling you they are the best. Top that with being exiled by his father in head to head combat, just for speaking up about killing their own men. That is something a child would do autistic or not, when he was told in those schools how wrong that would be. His reactions make sense for anyone including if he was autistic, and he obviously develops anger issues either way. Something that was directly taught to him by his father. He then becomes hyper focused on the only thing that can undo all of that trauma, he just hasn't realized it's all a lie yet. Especially because anyone else would be practically racist toward him for being able to bend fire. Even his uncle keeps up the idea that he should continue his quest, until he sees the right moment to change his mind. Plus you have to realize his uncle had to change his own mind at some point, so he knows how it can be done. I'm not saying it would be bad or wrong for him to be autistic, I honestly think it's an interesting way to look at the character. Either way he is maybe the most compelling character in the series. Someone with mild schizophrenia could tell you there are similarities with him as well. and someone with bad schizophrenia might say some things about how Azula acts. I'm not the latter, so i'm not sure.
@@jackman5840 I think you're getting your information on what is being taught in schools from biased sources, because I don't get the impression kids are actually being taught most of the claims about aspects of themselves being inherently bad that parents are being told they are (unless the teaching is that they are filthy sinners who need Jesus or that their neurodivergencies - i.e. autism - make them inherently bad).
As for Zuko, a big reason why he is widely seen as autistic among autistic people is because of the fact that he seems to cling to Azula for social expertise all the time, even within his family. This stands out especially in a family where the overall level of social expertise (of the normal variety) is generally high, such that even its wisest man, Iroh, is a skilled manipulator when he needs to be (though Iroh is honest enough not to use those abilities all the time).
@@lsmmoore1 i was told in school that I was being toxically masculine for crossing my arms in a weird way to comfort myself as it was my first year in Public school. Its a toxic term. I'll get back to you on zuko later. I have also never met a Christian who hated autistic people. That is something from your biased source. I was told I was evil in a Christian school for wanting long hair though. You have to see that its not everyone everywhere. But that term can be hurtful to people either way.
When I was little I learned that owls have offset ears to pinpoint location and since then I do tilt my head to better locate sounds. It’s amazingly helpful!! With practice it has become second nature and I can listen in on conversations and sounds people around me cant.
I have 5 children and 7 grandchildren this works well for hearing everything lol
For real?
Very cool
Really? What song am I singing right now? Nah, better question. How many finger am I holding up?
jk
I'll try that to listen in on people when their whispering
I work in film and TV and have done for many years.
There’s an interesting onset trick that we use to determine when lights are flickering but it’s not obvious to the naked eye.
Rather than looking at the light in question, make sure it’s out of your field of vision and look at a surface evenly lit by that light instead.
Flicker is much easier to perceive in this way.
This is exactly why it's so easy to catch a dragonfly if you move slowly. It's weird, but as a kid a realisation occurred to me, after reading Darwin's shortened version of "Origin" when I was watching dragonflies hunt. I thought that they must have evolved a vision to perceive fast motion much more slowly than we do in order to achieve such flight precision. Naturally, thought I, there was no reason for the dragonflies to perceive slow motion at all, this couldn't possibly aid a dragonfly in a more successful reproduction. And, of course, I immediately tested my theory, and was amazed at just how easy it was to catch one by moving slowly. It was mind boggling how those huge, thousand-faceted eyes that probably see almost the entire 3-D space around them are at the same time, - completely blind to slow movements. It was bizarre, I even learned how to make dragonflies land on my outstretched hand by mimicking the way a branch swings in gentle breeze, which totally freaked out my friends. I haven't lost touch as an adult either. Here imgur.com/a/Kn4Rlw3
you sound like a genius from a cartoon series wth
Wow, I'm going to have to try that.
And then everybody clapped...
Weirdly I discovered when I was young that grass hoppers and dragon flies were easy to catch when moving slowly, but weirdly I never knew why. Because I was so young I never questioned it, and when I was older, and ppl saw me catch an insect to show them, they were always more amazed by the capture than the bug itself, and I couldn’t explain how I did it, “I just pick them up how they let you pick them up” this video helps understand!
@@elderender8362 then you remembered, those who grew up with scientific access (like books) would eventually pull this kind of thing. Mine was just building a kingdom with ants (they are very fascinating! You can see many similarities of human society at macro scale)
Being someone with a neurological condition I just wanna say a massive THANK YOU for putting the disclaimer up about the flashing lights!!! Seriously, my nervous system is in full gratitude!
I've been interested in time perception for a long time and this was a wonderful exploration of the subject! Thank you again and keep up the great work!
Hello there! Just curious and trying to learn more about people with your condition. I’ve always had a minor neurological condition where I have ticks. What affects you most in day to day life? Are you able to drive?
@@BrennanHammons Howdy! Thank you for your message; I have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (also known as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy and about 200 other names worldwide!); it's similar to MS and Parkinsons', Lupus (SLE) and POTS, as well as Autism, ADD and C-PTSD.. I have struggled with tics, tremors and spasms for a number of years now but the last few years in particular my hypersensitivities seem to be through the roof! I have lip pops, "whee!'s", head tilt tics, facial grimaces... it's a great big mix bag!
I'm affected much more these days with sensory overload, including from lights and sound (flashing lights, bright lights, loud abrasive noises), which can get pretty bad when in public.. Abrasive sounds usually translate to physical pain!
I have unfortunately suffered from a (public!) pseudoseizure and many collapses in the past and have noticed that my nervous system seems to be triggered (albeit low-grade most of the time) when it comes to some videos on CZcams, but there have been certain videos where I've had to point out that the flashing is totally inappropriate for me and others with similar conditions!
I am able to operate an automobile safely, thank god, however a lot of my physical disabilities are a result of being in a head on hit and run that wasn't my fault and the guy who hit me in a mismatched vehicle was never found. After the accident the neurological symptoms got much worse. I had my doctor confirm I can still travel safely, which is so important for independence and a sense of autonomy..
There are vitamins and nutrients out there that can help..and plenty of different therapies. I'm always on the lookout for healing! And grateful for any that comes my way..
I hope that wasn't too much of a rant! , Best of luck with your condition, I hope that you get the relief you deserve! Kind blessings !
My POTS was also quite happy. Flashing lights kill my nervous system 😂
He was just kidding. Go watch again
@@igitha..._I’m so sorry you have to deal with all that, and no thanks to a mismatched vehicle crash. Honestly the SUVs everyone’s buying are sort of ridiculous they’re not even classified as regular cars they’re under a different classification called “light trucks” which basically just means they can get away with bigger tires, higher bumper and ride heights and a whole bunch of other very unsafe things for everyday automobiles. It’s a shame.
Gotta love all those people who drive their perfectly clean FordF150 to pick up groceries and take up 2 lanes and 2 parking spaces.
I really hope your condition improves. I have ADHD and have had minor annoying occasional tics that bug the crap out of me and used to cause me a lot of stress so I can only imagine what it’s like to have a real condition. Best of luck and I wish you a healthy life.
8:02 - wow...then this explains why and how they can jump so freaking quickly from branch to branch so easily without failing even once and in such precise way..they see everything much slower and it gives them extra time in their perception to be able to perform that properly with such coordination of their legs.
Fascinating video. That being said, the head tilt is very much a human thing. I remember reading something about it one day and noticing it in humans (including myself) since. It has to do with creating a phase differential between the two ears for enhanced spatial depth or something..
Maybe it's more of a head twist (around the vertical axis) in humans, rather than a sideways tilt as dogs do, but I would imagine the two are related..
I think this type of research could unlock us to better understand the unknown especially maybe one day being able to talk to animals and for use to understand their language like it was our own.
I'm probably just tired but this is so ethereal I'm almost on the verge of tears. My dog passed away in October and its so emotional to see how he would've perceived the world and us
Honestly I feel you. I’m also really tired and my doggy died a few weeks ago and it kinda of is punching me in the gut thinking how she saw the world for all of her years ❤️
I bet your dog lived a happy life under your care. May your dog rest in peace
Very sorry to hear that I hope they rest in peace too
Just know that it means that your dog experienced a long happy life in their eyes ❤
I just lost mine me after 16 years. I’d give anything to see him for 30 seconds. I’m lost
The thing about dogs we also have to realize is their sense of smell is so good they can perceive reality much more clearly than even their eyes and ears making up for the lack of color etc.
Lucy's view made me so happy. Actually had tears in my eyes. This is so lovely.
Outstanding work! This blows my mind and makes me re-think reality. Plants respond positively to stringed instruments.
For the first part about dogs tilting their heads, I remember watching a very interesting video about the exact opposite thing to what you said; human's ears have evolved to be able to diagnose the direction, or plane on which a sound lies, by the loops and curls that defines our ears. Many animals don't have this setup (dogs, birds, etc...) so we are technically more advanced in the regard of honing, not so much with audible frequency. The conclusion was made by the guy sticking silly putty in his son's ears, blindfolding him and then having him pinpoint his mom and dad (the creator of the video) clapping in different points around the kid. Needless to say, it was to no avail. Therefore, take those beautiful traits your weird ears have and be grateful they look the way they do!
Not only that but our ears are slightly lower/ higher than the other making it easy to pinpoint where sounds are coming from without tilting our heads.
@@Cody_Ramer Don't owls have the ear height difference?
@@brodriguez11000 yes, but I think Cody was saying that we have this AND that.
@@brodriguez11000 yup although they have slightly more difference than we do however we also have the specially shaped ears to go with it.
That was probably Destin from Smarter everyday.
Something that would have been interesting to touch on is if there are differences in time perception between human individuals. And also if there are any measurable effects of things like stimulants like caffeine, etc. Like, the first time I took an Adderall, it felt like time was going extremely fast. Of course I don't think it changed my hearing or the capabilities of my eyes, but I always wondered how that relates to time perception.
Edit: I found this from an article online for anyone else curious: "studies on mice have shown that time perception can be speeded up by stimulating dopamine-producing neurons in the brain. These findings have profound implications for people with dopamine-related disorders, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Here, there is a reduction in dopamine, so sufferers could perhaps be impulsive because they perceive time more slowly."
Same here I noticed that with adderall too. Also Nootropics medications like Nuvigil
There is. Its actually a form of hallucination that can make a drug or substance classified as a psyechedelic. Its called Time Dilation. The feeling of time being slowed down or sped up. Strange concept
I believe you are on to something. Remember as a kid how long the summer vacation was compared to how quickly it seems to pass as a grown up. Perhaps it is not only difference in age. Could be gender, culture and genetics as well as medical.
@@helenafranzen9828 i had that theory as a kid. I honestly still believe it. Time dilation. "Normal" passing of time could be different per individual perception. I mean, hormones and other chemicals are constantly influencing our brain, and we know many drugs cause time dilation. Maybe these normal hormones can affect time perception for an individual differently depending on neural pathways in the brain or something.
Ive always had the same theory with color. Red to me may be blue to you, and maybe thats why I would like Red and you would like blue. We percieve it the same but we could never know, because what we know of as "blue" or "red" are different but always consistent
@@jeremiahfyan I agree. A typical case are those who are colourblind. If all of us seems to see or percieve a colour as blue we all call it blue. To those who cant see it, it can be whatever they percieve it to be. There are people in theory that takes it a lot further by suggesting that what we call reality is just an illusion created by our brain. I´m not a scientist and can not vouch for that but our brains is still to an extent an unknown territory.
super fun! thanks for making this Benn
what an amazing channel to stumble across! thank you Benn
I'd imagine that humans have various time perceptions from individual to individual, and maybe from population to population. These variations would be small for sure - but consider how our time perception changes as we grow up and get older.
Bingo! Time isn't even a constant for human beings, and I'd be willing to bet that even an individual's time sense changes as they age.
Is that something that we know to be true? That ppls time perception does actually change as you age? I know it's something ppl say, that every year seems to go by faster and faster, but I've always thought, and heard others say (not experts just ppl in my life) that its because a certain amount of time, say 1 day, when you're 1 year old would feel long because it's 1/365 if their entire life and perceived time. But 1 day to 50 year old 1/18250 (i think, did it in my head) of their life and perceived time. I've also thought that maybe it has something to do with everyday traumas we experience, and for some big traumas that would make it even worse, causing us dissociate from our lives. Like once we got to school and were extremely bored and stressed and that boredom and stress increase through our school years, and we start to dissociate from time a little to get through that boredom and stress. By the time we retire at 63ish and have worked full time and experienced loss like death and pain from relationships and friends and had near death experiences and ask the other little and big traumas for 63 years we've become so used to dissociating from reality to get through the day to day that that's our new normal, and when you dissociate things go by faster for you. Which is why it's so inorganic to learn mindfulness and learning to sit in your feelings and all that. But maybe I am only seeing the world through my own lense and that's what makes sense to me based on my own life and problem with dissociating. But I'd be sorry interested to hear your take on that and any theories you or the scientific community have on our time perception!
Sry for my errors i accidentally hit send before proofreading and swype was not my friend here 😆 CZcams won't let me edit, don't know why.
Most of them are little errors, but "inorganic" was meant to be "important".
@@ellielou52 time perception changes day to day and minute to minute, based on many factors. Does it change as we get older, too? I don't know of any scientific study, but anecdotally, I know it has for me, it did for my parents, and for every living person as old or older than me that I speak with about it. So *shrug* let's say that we don't know for sure, but that we DO know that time perception can swing wildly based on many factors.
I don't think this is something that can be empirically proven or disproven - but my statement is based on personal experience, and experiences of other people. It would be nice if somebody from the scientific community joined the conversation.@@ellielou52
lol The duck kicking back in slow motion at 9:06 is honestly one of the most wholesome things I've seen on the internet in a while. Amazing. I wish there was just more footage of ducks at this speed. They're surprisingly jolly beings at their own speed.
I like ducks.
I didn't know you could cuddle a duck! 😝⁉️
I had two pet ducks, and ducks are loyal, affectionate, and cuddly.
And you can also swim with them, which is seriously the best experience, ever!! ❤❤❤
@@EyeSeeThruYouthis comment made me want a duck now
@TREBLEandGANGSTA There will be a lot of work and time spent with them ahead if you do adopt a duck.
Above all, any avian you adopt should be treated like a member of your family and not excluded, treated differently, or segregated from family space and activities, since you are part of their flock.
Birds are surprisingly aware of differences in treatment they might receive relative to another animal, like a dog, for instance.
If birds receive very unequal treatment relative to other animals in the home in terms of attention, or cannot join in on family (flock) life, they perceive this, and it breaks their very social hearts.
If you can give them a stable, loving home in which they can be a full member, their companionship and loyalty will be returned with interest and exceed all else ❤️
This video made me smile many times. Especially Lucy in the grass and the duck getting a belly rub. Btw, my dog really perked up with the bird sounds slowed down. He never pays attention to what I’m watching but he did for that.
Thank you for this video, I've always wondered about this!
But doesn’t 28 days in bullet time feel like a few years at least? Great vid!
It would feel like 18 weeks
@@FarzynoMusic damn
For you. But for [insert animal] no it would be precived as fast as us. Imagine if Godzilla and Kong fighting IRL (assuming they survive the physics) that fight, to us would be molasses up close. To Kong and Zilla, its an mma fight. Preception is faster, but it dosnt mean the brain signals fire slower.
I hope that made since?
That's what I was thinking. 18 weeks, really, but I do get what you mean. Pretty beautiful when you think about it.
@@BAFLOD So is it similar to like seeing a C-5 galaxy flying? They're so big it looks like they are barely flying.
I've noticed the same thing about my pets, they used to ignore any screens in the house, but nowadays most of them watch TV or look at videos on my computer screen. Thanks for the excellent video, I'm subscribing.
Well I gotta say, thank you for a very interesting and mindblowing video. This has to be one of the best food for thought videos I have seen for a very very long time. I really hope you have a great day man, keep up the good work!
What a great channel mate. Good work 👍🏼
I've developed the head swivel to locate sounds while working at an airport. You hear planes all the time taking off, idling, taxiing and I know what each sounds like. Crossing a taxiway in dense fog ,this came in handy as a large plane was crossing as well. I heard a light sound of the engines getting louder and chose to wait. About 10 seconds later a wing tip appeared in front of me. I also had a large plane sneak up on me out of nowhere, somehow, even after a 360 degree sight check. Heard the engines and slammed on the brakes.
I also use this while driving. I can hear engines or tires on the interstate. I rotate my head slightly to locate where it is coming from and find a car in my blind spot. I find it safer to do that then rotate my whole head to see the car unless I am immediately changing lanes.
What is more amazing is I can hear such things clearly while still having hearing damage from racing engines, gunshots, machinery and previously mentioned airplane engines.
You're not the only one. I can hear stuff like that too. I often hear a motorcycle or truck in the distance and can tell how far away it is based on the sound. While others hear nothing, only to hear it as it gets closer. I can also hear infrasound and have proven this with frequency spectrometers. But this drives me nuts, especially sounds from anytype of airconditioner, fan, etc. I can hear rf sometimes too. But I'm sensitive to things like thunder and am a musician. So IDK, it's nice to know I'm not the only one out there like this.
I do this too! My eyesight was very poor growing up (I only found out how bad it was when I went to an opticians in my thirties), so I learned to pay attention to sounds and even click my tongue. 🤷🏻♀️
& No doubt it probably put lots of questions(that u didn't know u should be asking).
{ lol } ...into different perspectives for u, too.. am I right? & I totally agree with u on that too, (btw).. bc I have definitely learned (or is it "learnt") a lot more amazing stuff,from dudes like this guy, than I ever did in school.. I'm not kidding..I'm being honest.
Oh & everything u said about the way u taught yourself how to hear sounds is so cool,btw & I,myself, think u'r highly intelligent,..which is hard to find in most people..(imo).
...I'm just sayin'
@@marinamartin2567 everyone's always just saying these suits are after me but I'm sure it's just zine.
So, I work with animals professionally, and I have ALWAYS wondered how dogs & cats perceive reality/time compared to us humans. This is absolutely FASCINATING!!!
They see and perceive everything just like we do.. just not as smart as us and not interested in the same things .except food ..:)
My mom told me when I was a kid that you can kinda guess how fast animals process everything by feeling their heartbeat. I had gerbils, a guinea pig, cats, dogs, fish, etc. This video illustrated animal perceptions so wonderfully! I love watching our squirrels in the garden as they calculate their movements. Wonder how the deer perceive everything!
Personally I've had days wherein two minutes might feel like half an hour, and others wherein two hours fly by as if it had been 10 minutes. When I'm hyperalert, I've had three days feel like two weeks and see and hear everything in 4D. It's wild. I def prefer slow brain, or at least medium speed brain.
That is the cutest happiest duck I have ever seen omgosh.
"I def prefer slow brain, or at least medium speed brain." That's why I smoke dope and hate speed.
Thank you for posting this informative video.
I found this absolutely fascinating.
What’s amazing is that despite how differently humans and animals perceive things and often have ears and vocalizations tuned for different frequencies, we can still (roughly) understand eachother. Corvids and parrots mimicking human speech and other sounds and actively using those skills to interact with their environment, dogs learning commands (not just routines), cats adjusting their vocalizations to ones we can perceive vs hypersonic + often making a kinda pidgin unique to a cat-and-household and getting pretty amused if we mimic their sounds back at them (my cat actually bapped my face when I purred at her, then relaxed into cuddling vs clinging to me), or songbirds repeating and adjusting their calls if they hear a human whistling back to them
Life uh. Finds a way (to communicate)
Right? That's what I was thinking about is how in ways we can still communicate with each other despite all this 😮 I'm beyond fascinated!
Watching your dogs running through the grass is the most wholesome thing I've ever seen and I never knew I needed it until now 🥺
Ikr
Why do people like you comment this? “I’ve ever seen.” And comment the same thing over and over lol. Dumb.
Strangely relaxing..was it the dogs or music ??
Dogs are poop eating vacuums. There's nothing cute about them.
Ik never knew dogs hear like that crazy lol no wonder my dog can't watch TV POOR animals I wish they where like us so we could watch TV together like us it be more enjoyable if the black lines in the screen where not there I feel bad for them lol
What an excellent video - thanks for this!
mindblowing stuff. I just discovered your channel somehow. amazing stuff dude big thanks!
What a wonderful idea and execution for a video
Also:
Me: here's my 10,000 modular system for making wild crazy synth sounds
Bird: wow that sounds like shit
@@RedMeansRecording lol
Listening so some of these sounds at different levels etc, I can’t help but acknowledge how supernatural they sound. Nature is doing things we aren’t even aware of.
Wait till you realise that the night is never dark, but actually as bright as dusk. And out in the countryside the night sky is an intricate puzzle of lights embedded up there moving slowly across the big dome. Or that the air around you is an ocean jam packed with floating scents moving slowly like leaves in a river. There is never a scentless moment. In a modern city, there is never a quiet moment.
It's actually the literal opposite of supernatural, but I see what you're saying.
@@anandsharma7430 You made me realize the Universe is actually pitch black. Without our senses, there is nothing.
I tried eating magic mushrooms twice this year (nevver did any drug) and im blown away. I could see colors that ive never seen and have no nome or description with open and closed eyes, time was so slow but forever passing to such a mind boggling degree that for me, i thought about a million and a half things in real time but when i pull my phone only 1 or 2 minutes have passed, and it went for over 9 HOURS. Ive did some research and time have a ''gland'' in our brain and such psychedelics alter it. So, since everyone have different brains, and sometimes someone talk about ''wow today passed really quick, didnt it?'' and it can be true or false depending on how your gland were doing in the present time. Crazy.
@@detheet Yep. All humans experience time a little different (sometimes a LOT different) from each other. It really depends on our brain and how it comprehends reality at the speed it runs. Not to mention some humans experience reality way more different than the majority of people. If you did research on all the different ways, it would blow your mind. Compare all that to animals and what they experience is even more mind blowing.
Man, thank you. I've been wondering about this for my entire life.
This video gave me a crush on people who care so much about audio and the science behind it. I'm a (very amateur) sound designer and musician, but learning all of this is just so inspiring.
Beautiful, and so interesting too!
Gosh, do I love this. Two things.
1) I'm a big synth nerd, but I'm also the daughter of an environmental biologist. This is, quite surprisingly, the most interesting video I've seen you do.
2) You can tell a lot about a person by how they respond to animals, and how animals respond to you. Seeing your happy lil quacker get its tummy rubs told me everything I need to know that you're a good egg.
No way, I’m a guitar and synth nerd and son of two biologists too😅👌
I loved that too, when he drives his ducks belly! I came here to leave that comment! I like him because it showed his heart and when he wouldn't drop his cat! 🥰🥰😇😇
Nobody's perfect but we don't have to be (in fact we're incapable of that) BUT if the glimpses of Benn's soul shared with us in this video are to be believed, then I concur that a special place in Heaven exists for him! On a side note, I am curious as to how you lost half your left eye brow Benn..?
Prompted by my cellist friend I collected recordings of migratory birds spending their summer in Finland, and slowed them down to 4x or 8x time. The idea was to verify for her whether Sibelius had been inspired by Finnish birdsongs. I found nothing close to Sibelius, but many other kinds of interesting melodies there were. Some of the bird sounds turned into dog's barking when slowed down.
Juha, if you ever have a chance can you record crows/ravens? They have (to humans) such an ugly song, but they're always so brash about using their voices that I always wondered if they heard themselves and thought it was the most beautiful sound on earth, haha. I'd love to know. Although... perhaps I can do that myself; maybe if I put someone else's youtube audio through a sound app? Hmm I may look into this further. Anyways, if you do record crows, let me know if it sounds nicer at 8x slower! :D
I think she meant Rautavaara
